I’m not sure how much I trust any polls these days, no matter what the “experts” say. But this is a good sign. Kamala needs to win by a lot to head off the coup. A large victory will take the wind out of its sails even if it is not outright prevented.
I love making recruiters Big Mad when they email me some busted-ass in-office position and I tell them that because I am very awesome, I will accept only remote roles pitched at me. They get all twisted up because they know I’m juicy and have rare certs/skills and they want to land me. I’m a big fish these days for those types.
That said, I’m not actually looking for a job but like fucking around with the jackals. It’s amusing at times. And one day, some company will call my bluff and offer me some insane pay package with full WFH and I’ll take it.
But till then…let the games continue.
This is the correct response. I certainly do not give a single thought to Covid nor care about it in the least. It’s another circulating virus among the dozens out there. Big whoop.
The whole-number discrete jumps are too large; does not have enough granularity without using decimals and sounding like a robot. I in fact do care whether it’s 69 or 71 outside but in Celsius that’s all the same thing: 21 degrees! Fuck that noise.
The metric system was deliberately designed to be anti-human (look it up) and there it succeeds.
Why the fuck do I have dreams in languages I am actually not that good at speaking? Cool, cool, let’s have a dream with me speaking Spanish poorly. Thanks, brain, that was fun.
‘Is it creepy for me to still feel so physically attracted to my wife?’
Now imagine if the genders were reversed what the answer would be, and how the man would be just absolutely excoriated for the same reaction that the wife there has. You know he would be; don’t even pretend.
The wife here sounds horrible and very dumpable. Time to get rid of the double standards. And the wife.

Men, what is a useful item you need on a daily basis?
Space laser with fusion rockets so I am not as constrained by orbital mechanics.
It’s so fucking odd when you comment that a fast food or other service industry worker’s pay should be higher and then some clown pipes up with, “Well, do you want your Whopper to be 25 cents more so some burger flipper can afford to rent an apartment?”
Yes, in fact I very much do want that. Because that would be good for the so-called burger flipper, for society and thus even for me. It improves everyone’s lives that people aren’t homeless and hungry, on the edge of poverty or beyond. It’s not even contestable. It’s completely obvious — that is unless you can’t see beyond your own damn nose enough to realize that you are not in fact the only one in the world who matters.
If hamburgers weren’t tasty and were not “common” food, no one would give a damn what they purportedly do to the planet. Not even a little bit.
