  • What did you get fired for?

    Jump

  • I mostly got fired for being a bad employee but my employers were no angels either. One of my first jobs was repairing computers and the money was garbage. Eventually learned that I was the lowest paid in the dept so put a sign on my desk with my salary. It was embarrassing for the manager when clients came to visit so they gave me more money.

  • It's ofcom but my phone desperately wants it to be Offcom for some reason

  • Offcom has been drinking, came home in a blackout and committed domestic abuse of 4chan. Does Offcom even internet? Alternative plot twist, Offcom is trolling 4chan.

    I wanna say that Offcom is doing a good job and trying to protect British people in good faith but I feel like they are being used as a cudgel by the British ruling class to advance an anachronistic agenda. Don't forget, they fired their expert drugs advisor for telling them that MDMA is comparable to horse riding in terms of safety. They want certain things to be true, regardless of the scientific accuracy.

  • Good morning Mr. President! You wake up after a snap election in the US to find out that you are the new POTUS, what are the five first things that you focus on to reverse the current course of the US

  • Most technologies continue to improve with innovation, like WiFi. What is a technology that was nearly perfect upon conception?

  • But is it better than a big carrot? You can't snack on silicone.

  • How different do you reckon the world would be if, instead of voting someone in, elections were about voting everyone else off until one stands victorious?

    Jump

  • In the UK we have a public petition that triggers a parliamentary debate when the petition attracts 100k signatories. I believe there are similar systems elsewhere.

  • I've recently turned into a blocker.

  • Would you get the least worst candidate? I would try it.

    Another scheme is random selection of a citizen, like jury duty. You have professional civil servants but the leader is randomly selected and if the leader is doing badly it triggers a new selection.

  • Canadians should be wary of Chinese influence operations in the West, researcher says

  • Alarm bells ring when I hear the words 'non partisan'. It seems to be the term conservatives hide behind while they quietly push the narrative ever rightward.

  • Joe Rogan on Trump's mass deportations: "I really thought they were just going to go after the criminals"

  • If only someone warned us about uncle Joe ahead of time, like around 2020 when his platform grew exponentially due to COVID misinformation.

  • Trump's Nobel Prize desperation now a 'running joke' among diplomats

  • another to Obama

    Donny still not got over that joke at the white house dinner. It would be hilarious to give Obama an award for services to immigration or golf.

  • The total combat losses of the enemy from 24.02.22 to 08.10.25

    Jump

  • Good to know. Many of those guys will be maimed physically and psychologically, that's not much of a life. I hear elsewhere that Russia has a grand total of one psych ward for veterans.

  • Burger King is getting in on the action with a promotional offer called Whooper and fries.

  • What to do in the face of collapse and digital concentration camp? I have some ideas.

    Jump

  • I don't understand why you need to veer into conspiracy theories to make the point about being self sufficient and not assuming too much about the continued existence of infrastructure. This post has a prepper-lonewolf, bunking-dwelling vibe and I would argue that is a product of neo liberalism and due to the death of collectivism in our society. We have fetishized the individual and concentrated wealth and power into fewer and fewer hands. You're not going grab yo glocks and shoot your way out of this. Vsauce explains our current situation more eloquently than I can manage.

  • A million people died for not much of anything. That is some insane meat grinder. The destruction alone will take decades to repair. The animosity may take exponentially longer. Virtually everyone loses. Get your shit together Russian people, the Putin regime has to go.
