Idk I was having fun. I critically interpret things. It's what I do o_o

Fuck Elon Musk, but this is one of Jim's worst moments in that show. If someone comes back from an extended therapy program with a set of tools and techniques they are using to solidify and remind themselves of the changes they have made to themselves and their lives, and one of them is as simple as asking you to use the other half of their legal name as their short form moniker, you have to be a an asshole not to do so. So yeah, call Musky's new sinking ship whatever you want, but don't be Jim Halpert about it, because Drew never crossed the line in anger again. /rantover

The horrific opportunity cost inherent to having a billionaire class.

This is actually profoundly advanced AI. It's making depression memes. It took humans decades to get from the invention of memes to quality depression meme content like wet ennui sandwich.

You really can't tell if you don't know the person. I have a bright, weird personality and ADHD and work at a dispensary. People often think I'm high, assume that it's part of my vibe, but I'm strictly no THC during the day. Meanwhile, one of my most down to earth, serious, no nonsense coworkers does dabs before work and on all her breaks. Nobody thinks she is high all the time, but she's often the most THC filled person in the building.

The Erisian Liberation Front of SW and Rural Missouri, on the other hand, fully supports naming diseases and pestilences after the Goddess, Unstable May She Reign, and objects only to the application of the moniker to such a benign viral variant. In the future, we and/or I would request that her name be applied only to particularly virulent and/or unpredictable diseases and pestilences. May her sudden wrath never find you.

Such a cute little venue. It's a shame it must be owned by a shithead to host DeSantis.

I'll never not upvote Loss. I will always love Loss.

I worked a day and a half at Hardee's. First was half a day of "training" on the nastiest, greasiest tablet you can imagine. It was mostly health and safety protocols and regulations. Next was a full day of not doing any of that shit and selling dirty food. I never went back. It was a really fucking bad time to quit a job, but I couldn't bring myself to basically give one or more people food poisoning every day....

The real question is the hell did people downvote me?

You shut someone down without informing or educating them on a text based discussion centric community with an academic stick up its ass. A one word response to a complex technical question is terrible etiquette in this sort of social environment.

“Well someone has to be the king.” That is their only constant, and it is a thought process baked into the human brain. It is our default.

Fun fact: if you're raised in a chaotic environment of abuse, distrust, and neglect, you can go blissfully free of the need for leadership for the low, low price of CPTSD! I assume that this leaderless way of thinking can be imparted to children without truama, but I only know how I got there. For better or worse, I've never trusted or craved authority because my formative authorities were infinitely untrustworthy and unsafe.

let them have their own fascist christian everyone-that’s-not-a-cishet-white-man-phobic country

Gay and trans people would still be born there.
