She/her pronouns. With the help of a lot of cool people, I got the meds I needed to rejoin piefed/lemmy. It wasn’t great by any means going full pi-bolar on someone that didn’t deserve it, yet here I am.

I am not going to engage with someone that attempts to paint me as a fucking Nazi from an anecdote.
- Comment on Congrats on your big win!!! 2 weeks ago:
Oh fucking look, the idiot/bot that replied within seconds has nothing to say all of a sudden trying to mark an anarchist as a Nazi.
- Comment on Congrats on your big win!!! 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, fuck off with that. Do not come at me with that bullshit. You instantly commented. Maybe, just fucking maybe I was and am completely stuck in a horrid capitalist country and was required to do so to eat. You don’t know me or the full situation. How does the fucking fascist authoritarian dick taste from willfully being on a piefed instance that hasn’t forked away from that? Nobody told me I couldn’t piss, I was doing the normal human thing of following expected social norms. I am going to do myself th3 traditional favor I do and not block you, but flag you as someone that not only maybe has it out for anarchism in general, but a potential bot since your comment was instantl, accusatory, and vapid.

I have at 43 and it was the most miserable day at work I’ve had. I worked 2nd shift and walked into a mass screening. I clocked in and was fine. About 20 minutes later, I really had to pass badly, but the bathrooms were being dedicated to pass tests. There was one person completely refusing to take the test. It go bad, like really bad. I eventually had to say “If you don’t either pass test me or let me in the bathroom, I am making a mess right here and now, uncontrollablly.” to my boss’s face. They thankfully saw reason and let me go test. The guy that refused was promptly fired. His refusal was idiotic because there would have been no real repercussions - my boss even had a bad history with coccinellids, and would have just written him up. It was a sad day.

I am 43 and feel it necessary to point out that this a really ignorant take. Not that storytelling in games hasn’t progressed, but discounting the myriad of games (especially in the RPG genre) that have excellent storytelling is ignorant at best and disingenuous at worst.

- Comment on A customized delivery experience 1 month ago:
The trick here is to wait out the 7+ month waiting list for GrubHub. My stomach churns at the fact that I’m about to be a corpo shill, but I make an average of ~$27/hr (and yes for all of you that are about to jump on this, that is after taxes, maintenance, and time spent searching). The only thing I have to do to earn is turn things on like a cab. I earn about $10/hr above what is the average here and that’s the only reason I’m not sleeping in my car. And, also - this applies to all of the delivery apps, but you sadly need to find a heavily gentrified area to do this. To pay the bills this way, you have to find and exploit the petite bourgeoisie.
I make fucking good money doing this bullshit, even more than I did in my 20+ year career as a machinist. What fucking sucks about it is that you have to toe the red line, no matter where you are. If you are willing to drive to the suburbs with unnecessarily large houses, you will make money.
I fucking hate this, but in the end by doing this kind of work you are in a way preying on the disabled and infirm, but they have no other choice so you are in a way helping. On the other hand, there’s a good chance that you are draining class traitors of their capital. I don’t know what to say beyond this other than what people say about “underpaid labor!” is, in fact, entirely dependent on area, and there are high odds that the people saying that it is impossible to make enough to live doing any sort of labor that nets you less than $100,000/yr.
I want to go on a rant about how “office job labor"-centric mentality is way more prevalent than anything US-centric, but I digress.

My main income has been from driving for grubhub for a couple of years now thanks to some physical issues. Anyway, most of the people I deliver to are disabled, elderly, or both. I would feel like shit if I pulled the fuckery presented in the OP.

Yeah. It’s good that this was caught relatively early. I’m not familiar with the way it works under the hood, but I suspect you would still see notifications for reports and be able to deal with them even with the blacklist because that’s an entirely different thing from posts and comments.
- Comment on tesseract 2 months ago:
Mods and administration tended to use it because of the way it it easily presents information and the workflow is much better than the standard web UI. For instance, before lemvotes.org came around, it lets one who isn’t an admin see who voted on what. Sadly, aside from the recently revealed scumminess from the dev, it is a much better UI in about every way than the default web UI for Lemmy.

That, and each driver would cover a specific area within the delivery range. It’s not like they would have to read a map that fast for an address in an area they didn’t already have practically memorized.
