Gentle nerd freak of the pacific northwest. All nation states are vermin.

  • loudly talking about the anal sex with a trans person they had over the weekend.

    Oh that sounds lovely.

    If you say it was problematic in context i have to believe you, but i would happily take that over the advice a psychic gave them, obviously made up trauma dumps, or how the eastern orthodox church is the one true faith - all real examples from my current coworkers.

  • She doesn't really go on about it though.

    There's a kind of terminally online identity-yelling that's easy to spot and definitely a red flag, but she rarely talks about her personal life at work, other than mentioning samhain and yule.

    I found out who she claims to be from coworkers who use mainstream socials and stalked her.

  • I work in residential mental health and my boss is a progressive queer wiccan. I thought we'd get on great.

    But then she started using an HR mistake i told her about to falsely bill medicare, and lied about not knowing in official emails. She tried to force me to pay for a company parking ticket and acted shocked when i wouldn't.

    When a staff was punched in the head by a resident in the evening she took hours to arrive on site, told the staff they had to finish their shift before going to the hospital, then let them drive themself after a possible concussion, and tried to get staff to reclassify it as a non critical incident.

    Not truly evil, but sociopathetically dishonest in her dealings, and about who she is.

  • Or the people who had to work, or couldn't wait for 3h at their neighborhood polling place, or have disengaged from politics for any number of reasons, or were educated here and earnestly didnt know how important this last election was.

    Low voter turnout is an inevitable symptom of a corrupt system.

  • Given how incredibly well the harris campaign was doing at first and the outpouring of bi-partisan support for shooting CEOs dead in the street immediately after the election, and the barnstorming success of mamdani, i think it's safe the say harris lost because they took pelosi's advice and tacked hard to the right, instead of solidifying their early victories by continuing to lean left.

    I think it's pretty clear the country was willing to vote for harris, dems just fucked it up.

  • everyone voted for a

    ~30% of the adult population voted for said rapist

  • As a child we had a play tunnel that devermiculated for easy storage.

  • While we're discussing things sideshow bob was wrong about, actually plenty of ancient cultures could well have considered chief hydrological engineer a calling.

    Elaborate gardens or fountains and the complex hydro-engineering they required have been a symbol of power from ancient assyria to las vegas.

    Water and it's storage and control seems to have had religious dimensions in both the mayan world and angkor.

    Water control, flood control and canals were major imperial projects in china.

    It's super believable to me that any of those groups might've considered a dangerous, difficult, educated job with religious or elite association to be a calling.

    Also, i dont think anyone would use the c-word to describe cappadocia.

  • The campaign came out of the gate punching and dominated the news cycle. Then they took pelosi's advice and tacked right and immediately began to flounder.

    Im not convinved the technofascists wouldve allowed a democrat win, but i don't think it's because kamala only had 3 months. Thats how long election campaigns are in civilised countries.

  • "Well may we say 'god save the queen', because nothing will save the governor-general", was what Whitlam said of the queen's representative who pulled the metaphorical trigger.

  • More empty rhetoric from a thoroughly establishment dem.

    I wish we could shunt off all these warmed-up press releases from the newsom 28 campaign to an enough newsom spam community.

  • This is a really good question and ive not heard a good answer.

    Even schumer's stooges didn't really seem to know why they were doing it. 'It was the only deal' or 'it had gone on too long' are both non-answers.

  • That would be a good choice - schumer is the only dem who could make newsom look principled by comparison.

  • I hear that lethal projectiles are very slimming.

  • That outfit is straight fire though.

    Overalls are always sexy AF, the knee-high rolled cuffs show off the 'too cool to give a fuck' combo of socks and slippers, but the shirt's on the opposite side of the color wheel for maximum contrast, and the yellow hat adds to the cartoonishly cheerful look.

    It's an outfit that screams both "look at me!" And "lol i dgaf". I would absolutely wear the hell out of that outfit. I wouldn't accesorize it with a handgun though.

  • I have often thought that if i got a bunch of money i'd make sure not to move house, quit my job or otherwise change my lifestyle. I'm also neurodivergent and quite devoted to avoiding ever excercising power and to ignoring authority as much as i can.

    Realistically I suspect we'd get food delivered multiple times a day.

    But of course i don't think me-without-a-billion could ever really know what me-with-a-billion would do.

  • Not only do you have to be capable of immoral actions to amass that much wealth, but having power has all sorts of neurological effects.

    People who gain power become less capable of empathy. If you gave a "good" person that much money, they would be less able to think about how their actions hurt others.
