  • This is a detailed and considerate response. Thanks. I can absolutely see where you're coming from now.

  • I do t believe that for a second.

  • Years ago, my then-partner and I walked into a grocery store to get sun screen. I narrated my logic for where it would be in the store as we walked to it immediately. She said something to the effect of she would never be able to make that series of deductions so quickly.

    She wasn't saying that I was super smart or that she wasn't as smart as me. She simply meant that I processed that particular task very efficiently.

    I hate shopping at grocery stores and spent years optimizing the experience to be as quick and efficient as possible. It's like a super power that only works on this singular task.

  • One in the hand is worth two in the bush.

  • I was at a concert at an amphitheater. The headlining band was about to come on and I was at the front of the lawn with some other guys that I didn't know. I suggested that when the band takes the stage, if we all jump the bars to be right by the stage, reasoning that they can't catch all of us. They agreed to jump with me. They didn't and I got caught by a security guard who knew exactly what was about to happen.

    He was angry and roughed me up more than what was reasonable. On the way to kick me out of the venue, I informed him that I wanted to file a complaint about him. He took me to their admin office to write a complaint. He didn't tell the admin lady that I needed to be kicked out after and she just let me go when I was done.

    I re-entered the show at the back of the lawn on the other end of the venue, far away from where he was posted. I got to stay for the rest of the show. Technically illegal because at that point I was trespassing, but nobody knew to enforce it except for one guy who didn't see me.

  • Why would I care that a sex-pest endorsed a fellow sex-pest?

  • Fuck no. Organized religion is the source of most of the harms in the world. There is no man in the sky. You have no special blessing to be terrible to others.

    Capitalism is responsible for most of the rest of the harms. And then a very small percent is the result of basically-bad people and mental health issues.

  • I came here to post a derisive comment, but you've changed my mind. Well said.

    Edit: derisive

  • Just switch parties already, you brain-damaged sack of shit.

  • Here’s the rub though, you can’t have soldiers that can’t put on NBC masks and keep them deployable.

    There are plenty of jobs to be done away from front lines, are there not? I have never served, but it seems like there ought to be lots and lots of jobs where people are cogs in a machine in offices and the like. Please inform me why soldiers can't get rotated to such positions to keep them employed.

  • The job landscape in tech is pretty terrible right now. A friend had tried breaking into a different career path and when it didn't work out, he was unemployed for maybe eight months trying to come back to tech work. He's awesome in every way, so that says a lot to me about how bleak the situation is. (We went out to get drinks to celebrate his new job last week.)

  • I'll make him an offer he can't refuse.

  • I only participate on Lemmy. I strictly consume video content on Reddit. But I haven't participated on Reddit in around a decade.

    At least three typo mistakes in this article. The degree of publish-fast-don't-edit in our "journalism" is off the scale. I hate it.

    Anyway, this is what you voted for, asshole.

  • This makes sense. I hadn't considered it. I lived in a place where the position of the sun caused it to be super hot indoors late in the day. Cheers.

  • I like this. Cheers.
