  Oh I feel this in my soul. Recently my company was going to buy some very important welded structures, and instead of working with the American company that we promised the business to, one executive went over everyone’s heads to buy these from the offshore team, despite protests from literally everyone.

  They came in today each one is $100k worth of scrap metal. Absolutely unsalvageable pieces of shit. Truly a colossal level of fuckup.

  Will the execs learn? Probably not.

  Guys, I know we all mean well, but no amount of activism and voting is going to make a difference anymore. They will suspend the Constitution and ensure we never have elections again. The Democratic experiment is over and we can’t keep thinking that we’ll be able to vote it out.

  If you want to help, try and do it tangibly. Organize underground support networks for your queer and minority friends, seek or create covert resistance orgs, and have a realistic plan for pogroms.

  A buddy of mine has a PHD in Cajun Fusion. Turns out, harnessing the power of the sun is only slightly more complex than a good gumbo. Who knew?

  I really want a set of movies or a long form TV series on the Butlerian Jihad after Dune 3.

  Yeah you’ll be fine. It’s not about shoes, its about not tracking in dirt and mud and other crap from outside.

  That is correct. Not sure if you were trying to dispute my comment but to clarify, the remark I was making is that slavery =/= imprisonment on its own. Slavery = imprisonment + work.

  Only if they force you to work.

  It’s called Haggis, thank you.

  Personally, my theory is that the advent of “hiring algorithms” caused this. The widespread use of AI for weeding out candidates has gone way too far. These softwares are purging resumes of perfectly qualified candidates without the human hiring managers ever knowing about it.

  That’s why every company right now is bitching that they can’t find anyone to hire while every unemployed person I know saying that jobs are impossible to get.

  Anecdotally, that’s also why you get ghosted by companies instead of rejected. They have no idea you ever applied.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Really wish people wouldn't mess others around over sales sites⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Selling anything online via Craigslist or FB marketplace, or any similar thing is just an awful experience all around.

  I sold a car a couple years ago on FB marketplace and it was the same deal. Everyone thinks that somehow, low balling will work. As if I’m going to sell a $3000 car for $100. Like, bruh.

  I ended up just replying “lol” to any low ballers and blocking them.

  A fun alternative though is to agree to their low ball price, give them address to the local clown school, and then ghost em when they ask where you are. If they are gonna slide into your DMs to tell jokes, they should at least learn how to do it properly.
