Ready to be laid off, i can feel it coming considering the economy feels like its on stilts and my company scrapping the bottom of the barrel for projects to work on.

I don’t own anything and don’t have anybody.

Prepared for my NEET life.

Yea, it’s the ending line

“We had it good”

that really got me. The resignation that there’s just things out of your control even if you go down fighting.

People are too non-confrontational. From experience, you have to mention this is impacting your other work to them cc’ing boss or verbally in stand-up, particularly if you’ve already documented what they have to do

That’s why I always roll my eyes when you have these wealthy retired philanthropists like the Gates going on podcasts preaching about how important xyz issue is, when they don’t give a damn about tax reform that can actually create a better standard of living floor for society so that there’s more opportunity for people to come up with a better solution to xyz.

But charities make idiots think these rich people care.

Optional like how it reminds me every 3 days that it wants my info for “customization” purposes, and I can only sleep the notification for another 3 days instead of telling it to fuck off?

They have been so predatory, at this point no one should see anything they do as benefiting end users.

Everything today is “ow my balls” jokes huh?

The only way I could see that happening is if enough people poisoned the data to do this

The width of human hair is the tiniest distance that people can notice

Except when it comes to dealing with Rohingyas in Myanmar

Ketchup lobby in full swing

ahem Brawndo? Idiot doesn’t even know it’s got electrolytes…

Kobiyashi Maru it

I don’t know how some people do it. The max I can do without being incapacitated in bed is like 185 lbs, which is a farcry from what I heard you should be able to deadlift twice your weight.

The Internet is so bloated because every page is bursting with telemetry and spa framework bullshit that over engineers a fucking music recital site.
