I would understand that there is a massive difference between an unhinged crazy controlling weapons of mass destruction, and a tin pot tyrant who is simply hindering oil company profits.

- Comment on how do you deal with those characters fully convinced a job is something you have to enjoy? 2 months ago:
Why are you looking for fulfillment in a job?
As the other commenters stated, if you’re spending a significant portion of your life doing something, it makes sense to try to make it something you at least enjoy doing.
Wouldn’t it be better to find meaning in a hobby or family? Maybe writing a book? Painting?
Yes that’s well and good but the options are not mutually exclusive. You can have a rewarding hobby life AND a job that offers some measure of satisfaction and enjoyment.

First, stop referring to him as a ‘character’. Doing that makes you look insecure with your own situation. Next, understand his real question behind his words which is something more along the lines of “shouldn’t a career be more rewarding than just showing up?” Expecting that to be achievable for everyone in this day and age may be naive, but his idealism and wish for happiness is not a bad thing. He’s likely coming from a place of care rather than purposefully trying to antagonise you. I suspect you are mostly angry at his testing of your carefully built mental fortress, the one that insulates you from dwelling on the tedium and uninspired drudgery your future in that position offers.

- Comment on The Switch 2's price won't be impacted by Japan's new tariffs, but its games might 5 months ago:
“Impactful” is a heinous travesty of the language. I’ve actually seen “impactfulness” used too. Also bad is “impacts” … “the stock market has suffered several impacts due to low business confidence.” This cumbersome wording tries to amp up the drama. It’s much cleaner to say “The stock market has been affected by low business confidence.” Aside from the shock value of replacing “affected” with impacted, a metaphor for bodily collision, many have turned to impacted because the subtle difference between affected and effected intimidates them.
Be the better person. Avoid the hokey metaphor.
Btw, media uses “slammed” and “pounds” and other Batman words simply because they get more clicks than rebuked or chastized. Don’t be a headline writer.
- Comment on The Switch 2's price won't be impacted by Japan's new tariffs, but its games might 5 months ago:
Affected, not impacted. Never use the word impacted when you mean affected. Use impacted when bodies collide.
- Comment on Is anyone else not feeling that patriotic for July 4? 6 months ago:
World history for millennia has shown that the conquerors write the rules. Ownership is established immediately upon victory. It matters not if you’re a yanomamo tribe living 1000 years ago or a modern military 1st world country. The victors write the rules.

In the opening episode the entire crew get mysteriously turned into ballerinas and a shipwide ballet ensues.
In the 2nd episode the ship gets a googly thomas the train eyes and Pike gets a cartoon mascot.
Just more of the great writing you came to love in the early series.
- Comment on What would I need to do to successfully paint with my own menstrual blood? 8 months ago:
Great idea!!! Just use a good quality natural fibre fan-tip brush. You might as well up your game. For rocks and cliffs and other dark areas you can smear your shit on the canvas. Use a palette knife to work it in small areas. Blow some boogers for tree and foliage texture. Give the final composition an overwash of piss to give it a wholesome warmth.

- Comment on Why does it seem like everyone is so good looking and beautiful nowadays? 8 months ago:
The picture of the guy wearing the green sweat pants is wearing a t-shirt, so that’s not a fuckup. But the guy wearing the grey Izod with the sweatpants and sneakers is a major fuckup. A major big fuckup that says “I’m clueless”. If you want to spend your life lonely and depressed, go ahead wear that.
It’s just that I don’t wanna spend the majority of my life thinking how I should dress especially when I’m just going to the grocery store, as life is way too short for that.
This is where you’re not getting it… you think about it once. Get your style choices and wardrobe sorted. Then after that it’s just putting on clothes.
