Conservative neo liberals are on the rise in most of the western world so corporations do not think this masquerade is profitable anymore. Corporations never cared about lgbt crowd.

And they were right. Those tools are alright if you know how to verify information, but ease of access to information dulls that ability.

That’s nice, but how do you remember a style of writting of 200 students? I see it working when one has 20 students to worry about, but that isn’t a common teacher experience.

They were always shitting on teens doing anything even remotely individualistic and constantly talking about being humble. That’s how I viewed my parents and grandparents generations between 90s and circa 2010.

What happened to right wingers? I clearly remember that narcism was universally considered a bad trait especially among conservatives. How are they accepting that?

That’s a weird cult they have going on there. I’m quite sure people weren’t this crazy 20 years ago. In my country we are having elections this year and out of curiosity I watched debates from the 90s, I was astonished that there was at least some discourse, conversation and that politicians were talking about real problems while bringing up real data. Idiocracy seems more real than ever.

Where? Pax Americana enveloped all of the developed world and American shanenigans have an impact on everywhere it would be nice to live. Late stage capitalism is a global problem nowadays. Americans are getting fucked economically but europeans are facing the collapse of security structures and the need for huge arms investments, also the wave of right wing populism doesn’t seem to be receeding. IDK too much about situation in south America but apart from Argentina 100 years ago SA countries never seemed to be the best of countries to live. Developed nations of Asia probably have the same problems as Europe right now.

I guess we should just hope that China doesn’t turn their strategy from economic expansion to something more imperialistic and will still be satisfied with us just consuming tons of their plastic shit.

Of course, first things need to hit rock bottom for regular people to demand fair treatment.

Plague massively increased economic situation of peasants in western Europe.

Every lottery run by private business is not a lottery but transfer of money from gullible to someone’s friends and family.

There literally was never a valid reason to use this service. Knowledge about possibility of my great x 30 grandmother being raped by a Mongol raider is not even a fun fact to say at parties.

Generational shift means kids bad and stupid. That’s all.

A tip for millenials: Whenever you cringe at zoomers for their dumb tiktok dances, remember the badger song and realise every generation is stupid and cringe.

Back in mid 00s I created a forum for fellow classmates to share notes, info on exams and whatever. It was active for a year or a bit more, then someone set up a Facebook page for our group and the forum died in about a month. I could not understand why people migrated so quickly, Facebook group was atrocious when it comes to search functions, any files, notes or anything you didn’t download immediatelly were lost to time never to be seen again. If the forum is still up I’m sure I’d still be able to easily download exam schedules and all notes from all the classes there, with Facebook it was a pain even a week after someone posted. There is something fundamentally wrong with society if an inferior product can sweep the board so easily. People do not care about quality or usefulness of anything, all that matters is marketing and trends.

When everything runs smoothly thanks to your contribution it becomes the new norm. Then management expects things to just work that way and whoever they hire next is fucked.

Paving all of them over would be a huge endeavor. I hope Putins orange labrador doesn’t take is as a challenge.

Where i live we have a system where if you take sick days, they are paid 80%. 20% reduction applies only to the days you were sick. Once I got sick at the end of a month and took the last 3 days of the month and first 2 days of the next one off and my mother in law freaked out I’m about to loose 20% of 2 month’s salaries. She was and is still convinced that 20% deduction applies to a whole month worth of salary even if you take one day off that month. She almost never takes sick days and she works in a hospital… She self medicates and works with patients even when she has a transmittable diseases. Best of luck to those who have serious health problems and then get a fucking flu on top of everything from hospital staff. She is 60+ and reading the law to her doesn’t change her mind. A couple years ago she had more serious health problems and took a week off for the first time in decades, even after getting a paycheck reduced only by 5% and not 20% her perception of this issue didn’t change. She misunderstood that system once 40 years ago and she is going to take that misunderstanding to ger grave. Real world has no influence on her beliefs.

My company requires me to include probably a whole A4 sheet worth of text, hyperlinks, graphics at the bottom of every email. It’s especially funny with short back and forth emails when a total of 10 sentences exchanged turn into multi megabyte document. I am sorry to all the people who are going to die because of this.

Is there any chance for a future where the economy that matters, real people’s lives, production of useful goods and services, becomes decoupled from imaginary evaluations of billionaire’s gambling results? It really rustles my jimmies when I hear that a result of some banksters bet can get working families evicted and jobs dissapear.

I never know if they are Jewish or not, the groups themselves are distinct because they are always in large groups, with multiple guides and guards, but I can’t tell Jewish or non Jewish Israelis apart just by their faces. Idk why they behave like that. It’s all ages. I sometimes see them out in the city but I heard more chilling stories about them from a guy who operates a bus transfer business to Auschwitz.

Oh believe me, Israeli trips in Kraków are the worst kind of tourists in every aspect possible. They are louder than British stag parties, more obnoxious than Americans and their favourite thing is crying about antisemitism when they are removed from somewhere for causing disturbances or making a huge mess. They do not understand the idea of rubbish bins and you can trace their paths by following cigarette butts, empty crisps packets and spit.
