It’s alcoholic custard
I drink it every Christmas
- Comment on I don't think they understand. We're interviewing them too. 3 days ago:
Yes, you’d expect so, however on average you’ll be applying to 100 jobs per 1 interview, and if you get an interview with a company that doesn’t list it, it’s another 100 applications before one rolls around, might as well take the interview and ask.

I looked it up. It’s from a deliberately “cringe” creator. The 4 things from the video are
- you like eating
- you like sleeping
- you like smiling
- you like your friends
- Comment on What's the endgame when the rich have all the money? 2 weeks ago:
Funnily enough Samuel Beckett of Waiting for Godot fame (not the quantum leap guy) wrote a play called Endgame, also punning on the chess term.
A man who can’t walk or see has the only combination to the food pantry, a man who can’t sit down is the only one who can take him there to open it. They are the last two people alive. They both continually try to out do each other and come out on top as they can’t trust each other to live in peace.
- Comment on I got into the wrong career lol 2 weeks ago:
The mean earnings for OF is $150/month. Meaning it’s likely there’s a vast majority of people earning $50-100/month, and a vast minority earning $100k/month.
With props, camera, lighting, editing “costuming” etc, you probably lose money doing it.

- Comment on Anon discovers Japanese jazz 2 weeks ago:
don’t lump all of the West in with America. I play four instruments well and pretty much any instrument badly because I got lessons in school and could do both music performance and production in my last two years at school, I performed jazz, church and pop music regularly throughout my childhood and it didn’t feel unusual or privileged. We sang and played instruments every single day in primary school.
Also my English and History teachers would sometimes play us music that related to what we were studying in secondary school.

the more and less you understand about the universe, the more and less it does and does not give a shit and makes more and less sense.

- Comment on The Greatest Cover Song of All Time? 3 weeks ago:
interesting, I think its one of the worst covers I’ve ever heard - and I love RATM. It’s just a covers album to get out of a contract and the track in question just doesn’t do it for me.
The only worse cover I can think of is RHCP - subterranean homesick blues
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
I mean for that I’d have to be hourly, I’m salaried, which often works in my favor tbh. If I charged my hourly rate they’d find ways to nickle and dime me and be watching my productivity much more closely.

- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
yeah we have this whole thing about being logged on by 8.30 to start stand up at 8.37, so everyone logs on between 8 and 8.30 and then has breakfast or doomscrolls until the stand up starts. Which nobody listens to, because it’s poorly run, and then immediately after goes an makes another cup of coffee, bathroom run, and probably starts actual work around 9.30.

But it does allow you to go, “Ah here’s where the process went wrong, step 6 in the SOP. Why don’t you use it as a guide for the next one?” It then isn’t me vs them, it’s me helping them understand the documented process collaboratively.

- Comment on Anon has marital problems 4 weeks ago:
As an AMAB who is vaguely uncomfortable enough with the gender binary to use he/they pronouns but still presents masc in every context — I have met many people of all and no genders who think so completely differently to me it’d be better to use zodiac signs than gender markers to divide personalities (and no I don’t think astrology is real).
