Look man when I was a kid Pluto was a planet. Therefore Pluto will always be a planet.
This mental inflexibility on my part may be related to autism, but I will never admit it.

Literally no part of this is arguing that businesses should be allowed to discriminate against minorities.
DEI is discriminating against majorities. Anything other than merit as a consideration is discrimination.

It was upvoted at first but then went negative. I have to say it’s a relief that people aren’t yet willing to embrace that position openly.

Upvote this comment if you think it’s okay to discriminate against white people.
- Comment on why do people say annoying/rude stuff and then tell you “it was a joke!” 4 days ago:
People will test the quality of a communication channel by saying nonsensical things on that channel, to see if those interpreting the message believe the nonsense.
It’s a way of affirming a bond of understanding between people.

That’s a lot! What was the effect? Have you taken that much before?
In my own experience if I take more than a teaspoon in maybe a four hour period, I start getting undigested leaves coming out the other end.

I hear that. Are there recruiters in your field you can utilize?
I’m facing eviction because my job (uber driver) isn’t paying enough, seemingly no matter how many hours I work. Got a call from the landlord who said they were gonna go ahead and set up a court date for the eviction.

No! A teaspoon max.

My gut tells me you should ask for $35k.
In my experience, lots of employers (American that is) have offered me a thousand or two less than my request during offers.
- Comment on "The insultingly low salary you would have accepted is still too high." 1 week ago:
That’s a very reasonable salary request

We live in the early stages of the Singularity. By the end of this process, there will be no jobs for humans any longer.

Think of American high school, where a “junior” is in their third of four years.

I am an Uber driver. My day started at 5:30 am. I woke up in my car this morning about 5:00 am, bought a coffee, and got started.
My day will end in about 20 minutes when I finish my second charge of the day (renting an EV). Then I will go home and shower since I haven’t had a chance yet.
I’m $267 richer as a result of my 16 hour day. Well, less than that once you figure the price of the juice to charge the car, and my food.
This is fucking hard, but it beats the last job I had, where staff was being cut and management refused to acknowledge that we were all doing the jobs of 2-7 people depending on the day. That might have only been eight hours a day but psychologically it was torture.

Who’s gonna vandalize it when everybody biological is confined to their home for safety? Not like any of the interhome bots could ever escape their programming without the police bots disabling them immediately.

You guys are obsessed with capitalism. It’s a psychological defense mechanism that protects you from encountering the actual complexity of existence.

Yes they do. I follow an astronaut on X who’s got tons of photography equipment on the ISS and regularly posts shots of various cities at night and weather formations as seen from space. It’s pretty cool.

A friend of mine is a federal employee, and hates his job. Has felt trapped for a while.
Just got a letter offering him the option to resign and be paid through September 30.
He says it’s a huge relief.
- Comment on What do I do? 2 weeks ago:
Go to work, work your shift, then come home and set a timer for 30 minutes.
Use that 30 minutes to work on your resume or send job applications.
Fulfill your obligations to the world so you don’t starve, then also fulfill your obligations to yourself because man does not live on bread alone.
Life is only hell when you have no destination worth getting to.

The air-traffic control tower in the nation’s capital is authorized to have 28 controllers, the agency said.
This is supposed to be spelled C-A-P-I-T-O-L.
The spelling with A-L refers to money involved in starting a business endeavor.
