That’s what happens when you let everyone know you’re not going to eat your lunch, someone else is going to eat it.

The controversy was that like one person said they were offended then they changed it (from one generic pose showing off her but to a more in character pose showing off her butt) and people took it and ran with it as though they were reacting to that one person instead of making reasonable design choices.

You could use a different word that’s not an attack if you don’t want to attack. Like “reason” or “catalyst” or “schmoople”.
Don’t get bent just because people took your words at face value rather than what you actually meant.

… I feel like that’s how a lot of jokes are made, actually. You have a funny concept, you just need a way to set it up in a good way.

The ones I’ve seen be a problem we’re so flimsy that to put enough force onto them to open the door you ended up bending them down so far they scraped the ground.

Assisted a terrorist in almost blowing up the wormhole (against her wishes, mind).
Went to rescue a ship of Bajoran prisoners only to bring back Gul Dukat’s daughter.

- Comment on Why do they turn Federation into a dystopia? 2 months ago:
placed by the government in the custody of the Picard family
Is that something included in Picard? Cause it seems like a significant departure from the rest of the idea of the series. The government of the federation doesn’t allow people to do things at it’s whims, it facilitates people’s freedom to do what they want to better themselves.

His family has had vineyards for generations. Why wouldn’t they be allowed to? Space isnt exactly a luxury since they have dozens of worlds you can move to and have your own.
Keep in mind the “Gay Space Communism” isnt the soviet dictatorship kind where everyone is allotted their resources and you’re only allowed to do what the state says. Its a post-scarcity world where people can follow passions and personal drive just because they want to. (As long as you learn calculus) Something explicitly stated multiple times in the series.
They have the luxury of the philosophy of improving one’s self and the environment for others.
- Comment on Real Struggle 😔 2 months ago:
I’m talking about a cultural problem started by Henry Ford over a hundred years ago called the assembly line. Where you only have one job to do and you do it over amd over with little variation. It started in industry, but shows it’s face in every profession.
Im glad your personal experience is better, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a very dangerous trend in most professions that this entire post is literally complaining about.
Yes, situations should be more ideal for the worker. But they’re not. That is my entire point.
- Comment on Real Struggle 😔 2 months ago:
Of course! It can and should be something that is encouraged in most, if not all, workplaces.
Im saying that’s not the case, even going outside engineering. The emphasis is on learning and polishing your primary skill, not tertiary, or even adjacent skillsets. If it happens and improves workload, great! But if we catch you doing it when you could be making money instead, for shame…
I would say in professions like engineering, where you are doing more problem solving, there is a higher tolerance. Especially since a lot of PMs and supervisors are or were engineers themselves. But tolerance is not acceptance.
- Comment on Real Struggle 😔 2 months ago:
Working with engineers as my profession, these are not professional requirements, they are personal requirements. They make you a better prospect when hiring, but spending time to learn those skills while actually on the job makes you a liability.
One of the jobs I had when working with engineers was basically doing all the digital document management and word processing/excel tasks.
Again, im not saying those skills, or their equivalent in other professions, shouldn’t be part of the general lexicon. Im saying taking the time to learn them, while also being paid, is discouraged. KPI is a thing, and learning new skills makes that go down.
