It’s been a while since I read it, but the relationship she had was completely above board.

Most of the people I’ve ever encountered who were hardcore DEI=Didint Earn It
…either got their job at a family-run business, via friends who gifted them a job they were under qualified for, or legitimately banged their way in and up.
It’s like when NIL was established for college football, and the $EC started bitching about schools “buying” their rosters… despite it being an open, poorly kept secret their boosters have been buying players for them for decades

Or trust that the people who’s actual job to handle this problem will do what they need to.
How well did that work out for us during COVID

CROW!
- Comment on Reddit is finally entirely dead to me 1 week ago:
Don’t get me started on the powermods. How to go on power trips online to distract from how much of absolute losers they are IRL. I used to know some of them back in my reddit days and holy hell they are some of the most insufferable fuckwits you’d ever interact with
- Comment on Your Truck is Stupid Big 1 week ago:
In the south, trucks like that are practically a status symbol. Lift kit, knotted tires (bald within a year because they only drive it on paved roads), expensive ass brush guard with a winch that’s never been used, spray in bedliner with big diamond plate bed box, pristine multi-trailer hitch, Yeti/Browning/fjb/FAFO/tbl/wE tHe PeOpLe decal on the window along with whatever big football college they never went to…
The most they’ve ever hauled on it is groceries, and the dirtiest it ever gets is when it rains. If any mud get on it for any reason they leave it on for as long as possible

The point you know you’ve beat an idiot in an argument…either they wanna fight you, they start attacking your character or they end the argument with a bullshit excuse.

- Comment on Houses in my area increases 82% in just 4 years 1 year ago:
I think a big part of it is we’re on the other side of the peak of all houses going for 100k over asking regardless of condition. A number of houses have that grey vinyl flooring installed in a bunch of rooms that’s as cheap as it is ugly.
- Comment on Houses in my area increases 82% in just 4 years 1 year ago:
This is everywhere. I’ve been looking for houses for 3 months in NW Ohio. 300k is the new 150k, and all the houses are beat to shit on the inside needing 50k just to make them passable inside because nobody takes care of them.

“I have gotten a lot of threats through Facebook about it. You know, ‘You need to take that down, it’s vulgar language, it’s kids,’ whatnot," homeowner William Grabrovac said. "I understand that situation, but if you go walk up and down the streets, there’s a lot of f-- Biden signs flying around. What’s the difference?”
JFC What a snowflake.
- Comment on You'd better 1 year ago:
So what’s the backstory? The dude fell too far behind on payments or is the city trying to eminent domain the property
- Comment on Why did it take so damn long for humanity to "learn" how to draw/paint realistic images? 1 year ago:
Also the time needed to perfect that skill wouldn’t have been available that far back. If you’re needing to spend the bulk of your time hunting/gathering food and other forms of basic survival I don’t think you’d have the hours every evening to work on your shading techniques.

Well, she’s also pretty attractive so she’s got a 1-up right there

My sister’s first year in college she got the Chinese word for LOVE tattooed. Later she found out it was the correct symbol, only mirrored. I called her EVOL for a while

- Comment on How come LED Light Bulbs only last for about 2-3 Years? 1 year ago:
What lasted forever for me…CFLs. downside is they just don’t seem to put out as much light. But I had some in my house 10+ years old. They lasted so long that when one finally burned out and I didn’t have a replacement of the intensity…I was pissed to learn they don’t even make them anymore. I’m not a fan of LEDs because some of the cheaper ones are like mini strobe lights and really big my eyes. I had to go through like $60 work of LEDs to find a set I actually liked

Ugh sorry bro.
But this reminds me of that reddit post from forever ago about the same thing. Cups, drinks, food. Nobody showed

- Comment on Just for a moment 1 year ago:
I really wish CBS hadn’t sent a cease and decist to that one YouTube channel who was building an entire Ent-D in Unreal. It showed all of Main Shuttle Bay through corridors, a couple lounges including 2-Forward all the way up to the bridge.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
Libertarians are just conservatives without the religion and/or who smoke weed. They hide behind the label because they agree with right-winger s but are too chicken-shit to admit it and can say “bUt I’m LiBeRtArIaN” when something heinous happens
- Comment on Aldi announces wage increases up to $23 an hour; hiring thousands of employees 1 year ago:
Sale, up to 90% off!
Where the 90% off is the triple clearance table that’s been inventory they genuinely can’t get rid of, while everything else is 10-15% off
- Comment on Seriously, what the f*** is keeping Donald Trump in this presidential race? 1 year ago:
The guy is a convicted felon, and I’ve seen a shockingly high number of people wearing t-shirts outright acknowledging that fact.
For the upper tier of the socioeconomic scale, they only care about money and power which we had shifted in that direction. For the lower half, he continues to convince them all their problems are because of minorities, immigrants, women, poor, or any other marginalized group
- Comment on Seriously, what the f*** is keeping Donald Trump in this presidential race? 1 year ago:
Because it nurtured the racism in a LOT of people bringing it out in the open…which led to the rise often hat orange turd in the first place, who went from a reality tv star that nobody gave half a fuck about to spewing anti-Obama shit left and right solely based on race and because he got his fee-fees hurt at a WH correspondents dinner. Large parts of the repub base are still reeling in from “black president” 16 years ago that they can’t fathom “black woman president”

Man am I glad I killed my FB back In 2012 when it was mostly pictures of peoples babies and people acting like hating Obama was a personality trait
- Comment on First contact when? 1 year ago:
I thought i had it on my drive but apparently not.
The whole premise was on some rando day all screens with sound on earth (kinda live V), started broadcasting a message from the ambassador from the Concordium, and it’s all one giant monologue from him. He just says that anytime they find advances, intelligent life in the galaxy they monitor them for roughly 11 of our years to ensure they’re advanced enough and are able to exist within their structure and harmony. But it took less than 3 for them to determine we are not, cannot and never will functionally capable of it. One cited example is there at 10 individuals on the planet with enough wealth and resources to legitimately end hunger and poverty, and advance the civilization 100 years in maybe 10, but they’d rather burn the planet and let over 1/3 of the population suffer just to increase their already obscene wealth. Others include individuals damaging or killing themselves and others in displays of barbarism for mere entertainment, hate based on superficial features, and constant warring not towards the advancement of peace and prosperity but material goods and archaic resources that only further destroy the planet. As a result, our solar system is considered quarantined; they will not enter it, nor are we allowed to leave. If we attempt to they will eliminate us so we don’t poison the rest of the galaxy as we have our own planet. Only twice have they encountered warring species similar to us, and both times their intention was to try and build advanced warships to conquer their way out of their solar system, but because of their nature they both ended up destroying themselves and their planets for control.
It ends with the transmission being cut, and the ambassador being asked if he thinks this could make humans unify and work towards the goal of bettering themselves to the point of being welcomed into the Concordium. He replies it has never happened in their recorded history
- Comment on Worst examples of Treknobabble 1 year ago:
It’s not so much technobabble, but from mid-TNG on through DS9 and VOY it seemed that, at least once per episode, “Some kind of…” was used to describe anything new.
