Most of the times I’ve seen this happen it’s less a statement of pride but rather bonding over shared misery.
Like, “I too have experienced a sleep sleep due to circumstances inflicted on me by this rotten capitalist hell-scape that is our current reality🫂”

That was a fun user profile to scroll through and makes me want to go back to practising knife sharpening with a grindstone again instead of just using cheap easy knife sharpeners

I’m not going to lie, that sounds like actual heaven to me. If I could bring my wife, I’d drop my in-office software job for it in a heartbeat

Xanax is the drug that caused me to do the vast majority of all the stupid embarrassing shit during my time as an active addict years ago. And I only used it to ease the comedowns of stimulants…

Hey, the rest of the English speakers in the world are able to handle proper spelling and don’t need a simplified, reduced character count variation of the language to succeed

- Comment on How do I move out of the USA with little to no money? 1 week ago:
Not American but my cousin did the teaching English thing! It was a while back and I’m struggling to remember where she went exactly but I think it was Korea or China, and it seemed like a great gig. I don’t think I could do it myself but if you’re an outgoing, adventurous person then it’s highly worth it imo

How could this be true when Americans won’t even let anyone else be free from hearing of their fucked up internal issues for two seconds. i.e. this post

- Comment on What would happen if the next President, said I want that ballroom destroyed and the White House put back like it was, and I want to use all Union members? And done in Six months? 1 week ago:
What if the next Prime Minister, said I want that Sussix Drive house destroyed and Parliament put a new house on the plot, and I want to use all Union members? And done in Six months?
- Comment on Winter is coming 1 week ago:
The alternative is it being too cold to leave without fear of frostbite.
Also unless you’re wearing a full Arctic exploration suit then the air is gunna hurt when it’s -35c (with windchill) which fucking sucks for doing small errands. I’d rather just be a little hot and not need to put on a whole 10 layers to bring out the garbage or recycling
- Comment on Winter is coming 1 week ago:
Seeing the sun, not having the air be so cold that any exposed skin hurts, air that isn’t so dry I feel like I’m suffocating, grocery runs not feeling like a trek through the Antarctic
- Comment on Winter is coming 1 week ago:
The sunlight makes up for it. Having like 6 hours of real sunlight fucking sucks. I also hate having to put on like six layers to take out the garbage without having the air hurt my skin
- Comment on ‘I feel invisible’: over-50s reveal harsh realities of trying to get a job 1 week ago:
Yeah… I graduated roughly ten years ago and can absolutely confirm. The cognitive dissonance corporations have is astonishing as they refuse promotions and do frequent layoffs while at the same time complaining that workers aren’t loyal any more. Motherfucker I’d love to be loyal. Give me good pay, good benefits, and job security and I’ll stick around until retirement, fuck.
- Comment on Anon can't go home again 1 week ago:
Domains are cheap but I swear they have the most fuck-ass interpretation of inflation out of any product. My $3CAD .live domain is now nearly $50CAD/yr. Still cheap but why
- Comment on ‘I feel invisible’: over-50s reveal harsh realities of trying to get a job 1 week ago:
The job loyalty thing pisses me off so bad. I enjoy staying at a single company and was at my former one for nearly 5 years. That whole time though was spent fighting tooth and nail for a promotion to a position I was already acting as and then shortly after getting it, I got laid off without any remorse. I built half of their system and knew it inside and out but apparently that meant nothing
I’m at a better company now doing much cooler stuff but I still think back to that and get angry again
- Comment on When did humans stop creating wonders? 1 week ago:
Everything is just built to be the most utilitarian and more importantly cheap they can be now. Something that kicked off the lack of beauty in our architecture was a paper written by Adolf Loos in around 1913 called “Ornament and Crime”. Naturally, the arguments he made were nearly all rooted in racism
Loos introduced a sense of the “immorality” of ornament, describing it as “degenerate”, its suppression as necessary for regulating modern society. He took as one of his examples the tattooing of the “Papuan” and the intense surface decorations of the objects about him—Loos says that, in the eyes of western culture, the Papuan has not evolved to the moral and civilized circumstances of modern man, who, should he tattoo himself, would either be considered a criminal or a degenerate.

Yeah, Americans can be insufferable but I try to consider that they’re indoctrinated from birth and people be people. Birthplace doesn’t dictate the person

Exactly, I can’t believe people want to make everything political all the time. His desire to kill every human on earth shouldn’t even be important. Like separate the art from the artist, jeez

You should try Vintage Story! I find it much more like an adult oriented Minecraft with a lot more depth in terms of tools and processes. You end up with a really pretty base as you purpose-build things like a tannery, blacksmith, store-house, etc.
