Agreed. A huge self-own. Totally preventable. What a stupid way to go out.
Annoying
Tech Out
When will this market improve? Is my career already over?
Over? Probably not. Significantly curtailed.
If you don’t have at least 10-12 years of experience, tech is not a good career now. Jobs are being shipped to India/LATAM left and right and taken over by AI. And no, no one who “matters” cares that the jobs aren’t done as well, or that Americans will suffer because of it.
Tech is being hollowed out, like other fields before it.

Bluesky is a terrible place. Maybe Twitter is worse, but damn the absurd amounts of self-righteous liberal sanctimony combined with degrowther nonsense at Bluesky is…damn.
It’s a horrible place to be. Just like the rest of the web, I guess.
Crampinky
My pinky toe just had a cramp. How does that happen?
Seems not likely, but it occurred. I didn’t even work out today (rest day).
Takeaway
And most of the leftists are absolutely fucking gleeful about all the things they will “have” to take away from you. It makes them deeply unappealing, but still capable of doing great harm. It’s some kind of weird psychosexual/religious thing with them, though — they love having erotic thoughts about depriving you of the necessities of life.
It’s a sick fetish.
Herent
If I’m inherently evil, then I have no reason to even attempt to be a good person. Not an ideal outcome, right?
Luckily, I have ethics and morals apart from what anyone declares or thinks about me. But this is such a stupid thing to believe. Feminism has really screwed itself.
File and Rank
Most of the rank-and-file RTO advocates get super-incensed when informed that you’re not at work to socialize with them, but to get work done.
For them, it seems work is primarily to schmooze and yap aimlessly but has nothing to do with actually working at all. These are the same motherfuckers who would come by my desk 10 times an hour to “chat,” meaning that I was not able to get my extremely-cognitively-demanding work done while I was actually in the office.
Fuck them and fuck RTO.
Bush
The problem with the modern Democrats is they insist on bringing a butterknife to an M242 Bushmaster fight.
And that goes about as well as you’d expect.
Vast Waste
It’s so odd that our software and applications used to have more features, be faster, and work better 20 years ago than they do now.
What an enormous waste of vast resources. And all the while shit-for-brains assclowns claim it couldn’t be any other way.
Even though it used to be another way.
Quint It
Tik tok is social media which means it’s powered by people connecting with each other, and tik tok fostered many communities. Dismissing it as a dumb dancing app tells me you’re deeply out of touch with the world (as well as a boring garden variety asshole)

Good example of a useful idiot. Also, the mean IQ on TikTok seemed to be in the low 60s.
Ful Id
Exactly right. The useful idiots are again making themselves useful.
Passed Past
I still see people panicking about Covid. It looks like a comedy routine though I know they are sincere.
And I just do not give a single tiny little fuck about Covid. Not in the least.
Tattered
I might be petty, and I’m so glad I’m not dating anymore, but if there was an otherwise perfect woman for me and she had a single tattoo, still that would be a big no from me.
Gotta have standards, as unpopular as it is.
I have been enjoying watching women realize they have incelled themselves with tattoos, though. It’s rare that women have even the faintest clue what being the average guy is like (the opposite is not true for men, as we also face threats from other men). It’s a good lesson for women to receive.
Damn, tattoos suck. On anyone, but especially on women.
Scon
The stupidity and complete incuriosity of most conservatives turns me off, but the sanctimony and the “I’m the most specialest boy/girl” nature of liberals repels me just as much.
My tribe is the tribe of talking to earthworms and little birds, I guess.

The ’90s weren’t that great – by Cartoons Hate Her.
Wow, this is powerful stupid. Just fucking idiotic.
She completely and totally misunderstands and barely acknowledges what people miss about the 90s and why it was not exactly a completely better time, but a very different time with an extremely dissimilar feel as compared to now.
This article is ragingly fucking full of shit, I’ll state again for the record. Just clownish in all the worst ways by someone who was just a bit too young to get the full 90s experience. This profoundly clueless article could’ve actually been good but she was simply not smart enough nor perceptive enough to write it.
When someone pens something like this that misses the entire point of the discussion, it causes one to wonder why did they bother? Why produce obviously shoddy pap? Is fighting against straw men really that much fun?
Anyway, the reason people miss the 1990s is that it was an incredibly optimistic time. They miss that feeling. The Berlin Wall had fallen; Communism had been defeated and the pall of nuclear war no longer hung over all of us. We thought we could fix the world and that we all were on the verge of a better future, unburdened by history and all its hatreds.
This feeling, this spirit, was everywhere then. Yes, even among adults (it’s not just childhood nostalgia). Everyone, nearly, believed it, felt it, wanted it to be true and wanted to make it come true.
That’s why people look back so fondly on the 90s and miss that time so much. They miss it as much as that article misses the point.
