  Yo, remember when Disney gave EA exclusivity to Star Wars licensing, and for the duration of that exclusivity contract they rebooted one classic online multi-player shooter and then made a sequel that was one of the worst received games of the year and set the record for the highest dislike ratio on YouTube prompting Google to remove the dislike counter?

  Apparently the Disney board apparently doesn’t. Maybe someone should remind them.

  Not even any tie-in games for the sequel movies, just a DLC map.

  Dororo Based on a Manga from the '60s, the story is about a boy that has to slay a bunch of different demons to reclaim pieces of his body that were stolen from him at birth. It’s a rather silly movie, and I found it to be a fun journey.

  This probably one of those fake job postings I heard about.

  I would be willing to bet that it is a Ghost Job. I sympathize with that struggle. I’m sure I have applied to a couple of those recently, too.

  I found that many ghost jobs stay up for a while, so what I started doing to find leads was utilize search engine operators to find recent postings. Something like: (site:greenhouse.io | site:workday.com) after:2024-07-24 “system admin” That should find “system admin” jobs posted on workday and greenhouse, commonly used as internal job boards, posted in the last couple of days.

  You could even add more job boards to the list by using site: between the parenthesis and separated with bars to expand your search. Or you could change the after statement to today to find very fresh jobs to try to find posts less than 24 hours old and be among the first applicants.

  That trick (or maybe just my persistence with an overwhelming portion of luck, idk) managed to eventually get me something new, so I’m hopeful it wasn’t a fluke and it can help someone else, too.

  Best of luck.

  Oof. Y’all are correct about the misunderstanding. I apologize for the heated response. Being wrong kinda takes the fire out of my indignation and now I just feel foolish. Thanks for the lesson, y’all

  the “do nothing congress” was miles better

  This sentiment is wrong. Making some effort to correct course should be a bare minimum. Accepting the broken system as irreversibly corrupt and doing nothing about it is objectively worse than using the institutions as they are intended. Even if these impeachments go nowhere, let it excite voters to turn out.

  If you show up and vote for the party that actually wants to accomplish something, here is an example of what can be done. If you want to see checks and balances in action, vote for the party that is willing to make it happen.

  With all the talk of the corruption of the most powerful court in the country, here is what the process looks like to fix it.

  Conversely, if you just want to lie down and allow the court to continue to tear down the other “co-equal” branches of government, and regress our rights in an overtly corrupt way, then go ahead and sit back down. Do what you seem to prefer our elected leaders do: Shut up and fuck off. Find another place to commiserate with other self defeated losers.

  Don’t let trolls bring you down. Some people just are not happy without making someone else sad.

  While I personally do appreciate the level of detail and amount of options provided in this reply, the more straightforward and longer-term solution is to eat the rich.
