  one of the vocally pro-nazi people I still have on Facebook did a paper at university on “Elon Musk: a case for transformational leadership” and has that posted on his company website. he also has clippy as his fb pp, and his profile tag line or whatever has “I am devoted to the well being of the people”

  it’s an interesting mix of beliefs

  mind you this guy is Canadian. he’s gradually been becoming more and more right-wing because he has been radicalized by his view of the left through mainstream media. however when it became clear that he was pro-Nazi was when he posted about how the people who were calling Nazis Nazis have blood on their hand for Good’s murder and that it was entirely clear it was justified self-defense

  isn’t that how you get hemorrhoids

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Annual merit increase⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  last year we got a COL adjustment only, company wide, due to he trade situation. I accepted that, it’s better than laying people off. my work output responded in kind, however, after a very high output past year.

  the business has had a year to handle the trade situation. this year I am owed my merit raise from the year previous (lol they’re not gonna do fuck all about that) and a merit raise for 2025. let’s see what I get.

  this is why I hate going to the office. I can’t work in 24°

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And the cold in particular.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  it got to -19 a couple times so far this year for me

  of course, a few days later it was above zero again

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What do I do?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  hey, care for others is good

  I guess that’s the YMMV part. haven’t had anything like that happen in five years on this machine

  why hot wash?

  I wash everything cold, and generally all together

  see I couldn’t respond to you verbally for that, but I am glad that my time learning french 15 years ago at least allows me to understand it when written out

  although I did have to confirm entraider meant what it looked like it meant

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Water time⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  somebody is going to take this as racist, but it’s just a factual observation: washrooms with a high indian user count end up like this far more than those with a lower indian user count

  I’ve got enough data points over the past dozen years at multiple facilities in completely different population groups to safely make that statement.

  my point is that it is normal for certain demographics. before somebody comes at me, no judgement is being made in this comment, I’m simply pointing out that it is in fact normal in some places.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you have to deal with this during your morning commute?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I give them the chance to pass by moving all the way right in the lane and slowing down at passing opportunities. after a few missed opportunities, I’ll fuck with them for the entertainment.

  but yes, not always worth it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you have to deal with this during your morning commute?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  give it another read, you have your order of events backwards

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy: Beans ⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  fake. this implies that the poster took the time to figure out that the licenses belonged to missing women. everybody knows that AITA posters can’t do an ounce of work by themselves

  Good way to avoid getting bit by your dog too

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you have to deal with this during your morning commute?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  butt plugs with LED headlights, no less

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you have to deal with this during your morning commute?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  nothing makes a tired annoyed version of me happier before dawn than going extra slow just to piss off the asshole riding my ass with LED headlights lighting up my whole cabin

  ok, let me rephrase, I can’t think of a single time I would be trying to do that where the limited space would be a concern

  how highly paid are we talking? I doubt they’re making 200k

  keep in mind that Canadian tech sector wages are not on par with american - as a rough rule, just keep the dollar value and change the currency (i.e. 100k USD salary is 100k CAD salary)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can still smell them⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  even as a kid I disliked the waste

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can still smell them⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  you could also get the whole strip with a thumbnail of you just wanted to have some fun

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can still smell them⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  similar age. I used both. I think the strips did get harder to find at the dollar store when I got older

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If it fits...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  not in stock form. close, but not quite

  of course, their inability to parallel park close to the curb means that they would in fact stick out just as much to the street
