Why our broken food system remains a climate disaster: โbroiling the planet to stuff our faces.โ
Get this degrowther shit out of my face.
So I can stuff it with more pizza.

It seems like the political right is gaining traction around the world not necessarily because they are smart or good but because the left is profoundly stupid. https://t.co/mJceT2tXBV

It’s for real and it’s the future, no matter what clown-ass MAGAt living-in-1978 disphits think.
Why is that when men talk to women we always are presumed to have some sort of evil thing we want, while when women talk to men no such base desire is presumed?
First of all, part of the problem is that men’s sexuality in general is assumed to be deviant and undesirable by its very nature. Second, ladies, most of y’all just aren’t that special. Get over yourselves, fuck.
When I ask you to move out of the way so I can get to the damn butter in the Albertson’s, I just want the damn butter. Trust.
Since E.J. Antoni is now Trump's nominee to head the Bureau of Labor Statistics, I wanted to flashback to that time when I, a nobody professor in Vermont, had to explain to him some very basic facts about……labor statistics. This guy is a joke. pic.twitter.com/N0XZxsPRET

That guy is an absolute clown.
And even worse, a dumbass. Not all clowns are dumbasses. But most dumbasses are clowns. In this case, that fuck-up is both. Worst nominee ever.
Over the past few years, my family and I spent a month in Helsinki and a month in Singapore. Helsinki obviously has low crime, but there was a qualitative difference between the two. Singaporeโs near zero crime unlocks **so much.** I did not anticipate how wonderful it is. https://t.co/0wQ6l9NMtP

Japan also has very low crime. Used to have even lower.
I remember being utterly shocked when an American woman who had visited there told me that if she got tired in Japan while she was backpacking through the country, even in an urban area she’d lean up against a building and get some sleep. Not a single soul bothered her even a little bit.
No one would or could do that in the US. You’d be robbed, attacked, or far worse.
Why the liberals think we should just accept a whole lot of street crime for “equity” or whatever bullshit I will never understand nor agree with.
First year IT Support and I’m treated like a dog
This is common in IT. It’s probably even worse if you’re a woman (as this poster is).
Most people see anyone in IT — no matter their title or role — as the computer janitor/servant who should be completely subservient and willing to do whatever bullshit no matter how unrelated to the job or what the business needs. I’ve seen it over and over again. And I’ve lived it.
There’s some good advice in that thread (as well as some bad). Her boss should be doing a much better job of having her back. If someone treated one of my people like that, I’d be raising hell and blowing up the CEO’s inbox and Slack. That’s what’s a quality boss does.
And it never ends! I make well more than $100 an hour and I still spend time helping people unmute their headset. Or plug in a USB thumbdrive correctly.
Makes no damn sense.
Why firms are merging HR and IT departments.
My god this is a terrible idea. I can’t imagine how horrific this will be for the company, for IT and for the end users. HR is more clueless about IT than anyone can even imagine.
There is no chance at all this well go well anywhere long term. None.
The left’s tendency when you achieve something to say, “Well, that was easy for you but so-and-so couldn’t have done that for [purportedly good and noble reasons].”
First of all, no, it wasn’t in fact easy. It was not easy to grow up poor in rural North Florida and then go on to be an active paratrooper for five years. In no way could anything about that be described as “easy.” Why react that way? Do they really believe that everything anyone achieves or fails to achieve is due to social structures only? Because I do not and I’m 100% for more social support and programs where they make sense.
Second, this isn’t “give a crap about some loser shit” facility. Go down the road for that. They can help you. We don’t do that here.
The Right sees it as bullying if you tell them they should care about other people and want those people to do well as it inevitably helps them too.
The Left sees it as bullying if you tell them that they can choose not to be a large loathsome loser and it is in fact possible to make their life better through their own effort.
What a world.
๐ Hi! 40-year-old sex worker here. It's actually very creepy and misogynist to find women younger than me attractive. Let's DO BETTER and stop fetishizing youth (women who are exactly my age minus one day) https://t.co/DZyJYyTYvm

I have no idea who the fuck Lil Tay is and have never gone to any OnlyFans site, but this absolutely fucking nails the nature of female intrasexual competition and why the “age gap” crap is full-on nonsense.

Goddamn. Pure evil.
The left and right are both full of clownishly absurd degrowthers. They just express it differently, as I’ve already observed. But that is next-level desire for the void.
Apparently I am also a fucking lawyer!
Got people today getting upset with me because I refuse to answer purely legal questions and then refer them to corporate counsel. Bro, trust me, you do not want an IT person answering legal questions that will definitely bring about liability and obligations. You. Do not. Want that.
What a day.
