So I'm at work and I'm about to start working a different schedule than the one I've been on for the past few months. This is all well and good, and I've known about it for several months at this point. As the day of the change approaches I'm talking to my manager about some other stuff and he says "By the way what was your new schedule again? Because what you told me the last time we talked about it doesn't match what's in the system."
Turns out someone fricked up the paperwork and my new schedule in the system is slightly off from what was in the announcement months back. While slightly less convenient, it's barely different from what I was already expecting so I'm thinking okay whatever. I just really really REALLY need my time off requests that I put in forever ago adjusted to match the new schedule.
Apparently this is not a simple ask. I got pulled into chief HR's office at the end of the day and was informed that the issue had been passed all the way up to corporate legal and they were going to offer to honor the schedule I was originally presented with in the announcement "as a gesture of goodwill (please don't sue us)". I declined and made it clear that I reeeeeaaaaallly don't give a shit about the minor schedule adjustment, I just need my PTO moved. Response was "we technically still can't force that through, you'll have to get $other_department to override it for you if you decide to keep the adjusted schedule."
So now the shitty part is that I know exactly who fricked up the paperwork and I'm worried that I've made enemies out of her entire chain of command. And all for nothing, because I still don't have a guarantee that I'll get my time off. I just wanted my fricking PTO fixed.
This is at a fortune 100 megacorp (doebeit at a very low level because I am an unambitious lazy r-slur).

This is going to be a post where the one guy from New Mexico on rDrama gets really mad, like when Texas people get pissy because you added some kidney beans to your chili or whatever. Hey hypothetical future New Mexico angry guy, it's all good, you should be mad. I am literally raping your culture on purpose.
This post is about making something that's relevant to the state of New Mexico where they venerate a specific type of non-spicy pepper called the Hatch Green Chile. New Mexicans have made this product a point of cultural pride for their state and have done a pretty good job of exporting it all over the country during the brief window they're harvested (late August through part of September if you're looking for some). Now I said "non-spicy" but nowadays clever growers have created new varieties that are pretty spicy, although not much more so than a Jalapeno or something similar. If you want your green chile stew to be spicy, you can either look for those hot varieties, or just add some other peppers for heat. Personally, I don't like using the spicy Hatch peppers in this recipe because you need to add a LOT of peppers (like 30 or 40) which can get INSANE if you use the really spicy ones. It's up to you and your colon, though.
If you buy fresh peppers during the harvesting season, the grocery stores will roast them for you on site. Whole Foods likes to do this in some places. Otherwise, somebody in your town will probably get on the bandwagon. They bring a big roaster out in front of the store and sell the peppers by the pound. You'll probably need in the area of 1 - 2 pounds of peppers to make this recipe. If you go nuts for these things and buy a whole 25 pound case, make sure you have a vacuum sealer and a big freezer because these will not stay good in your fridge for more than a week. They're very wet after roasting, so you can only imagine how fast they're going to grow mold.
On to the stew. This recipe is dead simple to make. It's all just prep work. Hope you enjoy cutting things. You'll need:
1 to 2 pounds of pork shoulder, cut into 1 inch cubes (actual size of the cubes is up to what you like to eat, but if you make them too big you'll have to cook everything longer)
1 to 2 pounds of green chiles (I didn't weigh them or count them when I made this last night, but it looked like there were 25 - 35 peppers)
A big russet potato or a couple red potatoes
2 big carrots (not traditional, but my favorite version of this had them so I use them too)
A big white onion
Lots of garlic
Chicken or beef stock
Onion powder, cumin, oregano, black pepper
MSG in the form of Sazon Goya (totally optional)
Plenty of salt
First, you need to process the chiles before cooking them. You need to chop off the seed pod that's on one end and scrape the skins off. The skins aren't exactly inedible, but they have a bad texture that will make you look like an idiot in front of your guests while they try to pretend they don't hate you and your lousy dinner. You don't need to be careful about removing all the seeds, they really won't hurt anything, you just want to remove the seed pod because it's hard as a rock.
You could scrape the skins off the peppers using a fork or a butter knife, but I suggest you use the back of your relatively new, extremely sharp chef's knife. That way, you can talk on the phone with a friend while you're doing it, get distracted while turning the knife over in your hand again and again (using the sharp side to cut out the seed pod and the dull side to scrape, naturally) and then nearly cut the end of your index finger off when you grab and squeeze the sharp side of your knife.
Once you get back from the emergency room, start by browning then removing the pork cubes, then saute the onions, garlic, and chiles a little with the dried spices, before adding back the meat, potatoes, stock and everything else. Cook for about 2 hours (45 min covered and the rest uncovered). If you want to cook longer, don't add the potatoes right away or they'll turn to mush. Add the MSG right at the end or it will lose some of its potency.
Real New Mexican recipes I found online don't have carrots, but the first place I ever had this stuff at was in Provo, Utah (Black Sheep Cafe) and it was so good that I have always tried to imitate it.

I don't care about the size or weight at all. If it came with a modern SoC instead of some 5 year old mediatek garbage, a good amount of RAM, at least 512GB internal storage (with SD card support), a good screen, and a decent amount of promised software support I would absolutely buy one.
I've loved the "tank" aesthetic on smartphones ever since the first one I owned, the OG Motorola Droid.

What is going on at the Air Force…. Reportedly at Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico pic.twitter.com/5PD7DqdyWe

@RealDeanCain This isn’t hazing, or a bet that was lost - it’s Freestyle Friday where crew chiefs get into rediculous shit to launch their aircraft while everyone else shits themselves laughing, and the CC bangs his head against the wall.

Well, this happens all around the world in every flightline of any nation you can think of. It’s been happening since before I entered in 1999. Google “aircraft launch freestyle” and you’ll see.

Most of the times when leadership gets involved after the fact, it’s not good…
Sounds plausible. Someone lost a bet is another option. But rightoids of Twitter will do their thang.

Thank you God Emperor Trump, decimating the military for having fun will definitely keep us safe.
Looks like another example of woke nonsense infiltrating our military, this time at Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico.
— Stop Socialist Tyranny (@endlibtyranny) February 14, 2025
The Air Force should focus on defending our country, not promoting radical ideologies.
What's next, mandatory diversity training for our pilots?
Even I'm getting tired of seeing the word "woke"
Do young Airmen typically put on thong bodysuits to send our billion dollar planes out of the hanger?
— GodParticles (@G0DParticles) February 14, 2025
Apparently, yes
Everybody knows the Air Force is gay anyways…but this is WAY too gay.

I just started watching but it's obvious to anyone. I wasn't even trying to find faults. So for example on the boxart of the rerelease of moana 1 or in the actual movie she looks like this:
However in Moana 2 her hair looks like it hasn't been cleaned, less soft, her eyes are more far apart like half a centimeter like her voice actor actually looks.
I think she's actually fatter too but it's all so subtle. The funny part is this is obviously DEI, there's no reason to change the models of the characters so much. Almost all the characters look more realistic and less cartoony and cute. This is super strange as normally you'd want the models to be more consistent. Also everyone's hair has less pieces to it, seeming more clumpy, meaning less render time. She also radiates more girl boss energy and the expressions are less cute. So she just has that wierd/b-word intentionally cringe face in some scenes.
Movie is fine other than it pissing on my autism and noticing powers.
