And if you pay for Premium you get all features and zero ads

Oh hey, me too, except I would never pay for premium. I just don’t use the official front-end.

I’m sure they’ll have plenty of proper god fearing Christian good old boys just lining up to do their solemn duty.

Push workdays later into the day so a 9-5 becomes an 11-5.

FTFY

work can get fucked if they think I’m giving up my evenings. We should be pushing for shorter workdays, too. Not just push them back.

I’ve lost my sea legs, unfortunately. It’s been about a decade since I set sail and at this point I’m paranoid about any online interactions.

I wouldn’t even know where to start with VPNs.

Is this what getting old feels like? Can I go back to limewire?

I ended up finally giving it a shot last month, and I recall having seen stuff about season 2.

I finished season 1 in 2 days, and then found out season 2 hadn’t quite come out yet.

Then I did what I always do and waited for all the episodes to come out… I got halfway through season 2 before my last month I’m paying for streaming services ran out.

So now I will indefinitely be halfway through season 2.

I should have started season 2 the day the last episode was released.

I my experience, Christians don’t know their own Bible and rarely, if ever, crack it open without someone telling them to, usually during a service.

As I said, non-fictional people tied together with a fictional story.

Deciding that I said one thing, when simply looking up and seeing I didn’t say it means you are founding your reply on feelings instead of actual information.

HP ain’t got shit on The Hobbit.

She called the Asian girl “ching chong”, she called one of the few black people in it “shackle bolt”, and she might as well have called the Irish kid “Irish O’Carbomb” given his name an propensity for unintentionally setting things on fire.

Don’t even get me started on the goblins.

She straight up admitted lycanthropy is HIV, and all werewolves are interested j is spreading their disease by attacking anyone nearby, one werewolf specifically targets children, if I remember correctly.

The only gay characters I am aware of, one is a villain, and the other other is “one of the good ones” who never acted on it after a point and just stayed a celibate single.

The only non-magical users in the magic world “squibs”, basically disabled people, are portrayed as shitty humans. Every summer Harry got left with ms fig who was “a mad old lady”, and the school caretaker Filch, who is a sadist that welcomes umbridge with open arms, a parasite who latches on to whoever benefits him most.

I’m sure there’s others I’ve never caught or thought about.

I mean, ultimately you’re both basically arguing over Star Wars about whether Han shot first or second. Its several non-fictional people tied together with a fictional story to push an agenda of control.

Unfortunately, due to different showrunners, there are a couple.

Like how Tony didn’t figure out hydra was infiltrating SHIELD when he hacked everything in Avengers 1. Probably should have figured that out.

And I know people like to say there are too many hydra people for them to not be well-known or easier to discover, but personally I don’t take issue with that.

If hydra has infiltrated key personnel, they can move whoever they want. I’d say they concentrated their forces at headquarters and on the carriers, since that was part of their big master plan. So of course there will be a lot of bags guys in the main areas and in the carriers, and it’s a testament to how few there really were that they failed. And they had sizeable resistance from non-compromised personnel.

I’ve managed to get two first round interviews, and I’m a “perfect candidate” for one and have been invited to a second interview. They dropped a surprise drug test that wasn’t mentioned at any point before, and while they won’t find any hard drugs, THC is legal in my state. So if I get past the second interview, I have to just hope they don’t care about thc.

At least if they do, I’ll have wasted their time as much as mine, and more importantly, their money on the tests.

I mean, depending on who you ask, you’ll get some different answers to that.

An idle population has time to ponder why their lives are shit.

Gotta keep them working, tired, and focused on bullshit like gender definitions, or they might start getting uppity.

I live in Ohio and am currently looking for work.

I’m still paying to places that say drug testing, but not places that specify thc testing.

As far as I’m concerned, it’s a legal state, and unless they have similar testing and employment rules for alcohol (which they wouldn’t be able to since it doesn’t show up two weeks later) then I should be able to smoke when I want, off the clock.

If they test and it prevents me from getting the job, I feel slightly satisfied I wasted their time and money. If they follow up and ask about it, I will tell them straight up it’s legal in this state and they’re only limiting their options by refusing to hire people who do a legal thing.

It’s probably just wasting my own time, but hey I’ve got time to waste.

Yeah, I think that about sums it up.

Ooh how many times have you heard that it’s somehow your fault for not doing enough to get anyone else elected, your fault for not having a degree, your fault for not seeing this coming 10 years ago and making plans then, or your fault for being a dirty American who is American and therefore deserves all the bad things happening?

I’ve gotten all these, and more.

My personal favorite was being told in the same conversation by two different Canadians, that I should move to Canada, AND that Canada doesn’t need some “backwards ass hillbilly trash who wants to fuck his guns as much as his sister” because I mentioned I have family, no college education, and firearms.

Personally I’d prefer to move to an EU country, but if the US ever really did want to invade Canada, I’d want to be there to help defend Canada. You know, with my guns. I’ve inherited quite a few, have training to use them, and am absolutely willing to train minorities on their use to defend against fascist racist phobic pieces of human refuse.

So basically for one reason or another, country on the planet seems to want someone like me.

Instead we get to sit here, in this shit hole country. Grasping at anything to try and help pull it back from the massive sinkhole it’s slipping into. Hoping that enough people help us to make a difference.

I don’t think there’s a relevant peanuts panel for this…

Literally the most hilarious thing I’ve read all week. Honestly I wonder if anyone who was involved in this article actually believes that.

It just reads like more placation of the angry masses. “no need to burn things down, we promise he will be gone soon, no protesting necessary either”

They could halve their prices and still make bank.

Markups at retail stores are insane, places like Walmart are the worst.
