What in this weird world is going on in this image...

Just a small observation, nothing else. I was wondering why did i get dog as my grapevine profile photo. I started observing various profile photos and realized that the initial of the user name is taken as a reference. I'll give my example- Dwight - D - Dog Other user - C..... - C - Cat E - Elephant P- Peacock M- Mouse F- Flamingo B- Bear T- Tiger L- Lion Anyone whose initials don't align with the animal? Any unique animals here??

What's the weirdest thing you've found in a used book? I once found a love letter from the 1950s as a bookmark. It was sweet, sad, and a little creepy all at once. Any strange discoveries in second-hand books?

Engagement profiteering and sympathy farming off someone's passing away is just pathetic and shameful. They will stoop to any level if it gets them a few hundred likes and increases conversion to their actual business. Stop gathering sympathy using the poor fellow please!

Got a new phone and trying to find a new wallpaper now. Here's my old wallpaper... Suggestions are appreciated.

I have many friends who are into IT and Tech(read again Tech not IT). Whenever I am speaking to the IT folks and understand their aspirations I always find that they have this strange thing mentioned every now and then i.e. Going to the Clients location(all overseas) for a couple of months and coming back or extending for a longer duration say a few years and purchasing a house/flat back in India. I don't understand how going to the client's location(even if it's on Mars) and earning $$$ can be life's ultimate goal. What am I missing here? I am not able to understand since I have always believed that life's ultimate goal would be always bigger for people(achievable/non achievable are different things). Does working in IT make people so myopic that they are destined to think in the straight line process and wait for that token(at least what I have heard is that it's some weird selection they do to select and send you abroad on the projects). May be this thought process makes most of the crowd stick to the systems for years and decades at work. Is it considered that bigger of an achievement OR Is it a way to make people stick around for longer duration ? What am I missing here ? How can life goals be so small ?
