I’ve been out of tech work for near as long as I have career experience.

Each day feels another nail in the coffin of those 6 years of education.

Well, that’s your fault for being poor.

Start stealing from people below you and stop paying some percentage of your tax as close to 100% as is financially sustainable.

I swear I’m not flaming, but what did you think TOP said?

15 seconds?

I’ve been seeing clips of Mehdi Hasan giving people a solid drubbing. Would’ve liked seeing him thrash Kirk as well.

The only “vigil” that should be held for him is a graveside watch to make sure that ghoul stays down and isn’t spewing more toxic sludge up from hell.

I don’t know how you have a “harmonious” family when your family was (rest in piss) Charlie Kirk. Even if he never ‘brings up work’ during family time, you still have to be aware of what he’s done. And you never confronted him? You have to either be onboard with what he’s advocating for or a sandbag.

They’ve all sat at a table with a nazi for decades, and it’s pretty clear what that means.

They kept a hand on its scruff for most of the wash

I call it bait entirely because of its audience: it’s posted to r/Conservatives.

Satire should be perceivable by its intended audience, such that the audience will interact and enjoy it on that meta-level. The expected audience of that subreddit isn’t looking for coded messages to unionize. Unless this post was made entirely for the enjoyment of progressive lurkers, which is not as reasonable to assume.

Way too many comments from people taking this at face value. This is almost formulaic bait.

If only…

Just by proximity of thoughts you are aligning Silksong with a “school play” which is purposely and unquestionably inaccurate. What about the execution of Silksong strikes you as amateur or childish?

At least compare two performances made by people the same ages, if you’re going to feign a reasonable comparison.

You can. Just gotta find the riiight bush. Probably something like poison oak.

It’s itchy.

Can’t answer. He’s dead.

And why is the apostrophe after the “em”?

We’ve plenty of examples of Trump ignoring outlets he doesn’t favor. And I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s outright banned some from attending press events.

It’s definitely what he would’ve wanted. Trust me, bro. Release the unaltered Epstein files for ol’ bobbledead Chuckie Kirk.

You could’ve stayed on with the belief that you’d mitigate the MAGAts at the very start but you have to concede that they’re only dragging you deeper now, not the other way around.

It’s the same with progressives and Democrats. I used to believe progressives should stay and help pull moderates and liberals left in the Democrat party. But it’s inescapably clear now that mainstay Democrats are completely unwilling to be dragged left, so the left needs to separate. If you stay in the party, you stay complicit with what it does. This isn’t a home you built or a nationality you were born into. It’s a job you went for and a side you chose; choose a different one now that the current one is soiled.

I’m uninterested in manipulating the uniquely regressive knobs that activate “Republicans” separately from “MAGAts”.

Unless it’s to turn on their class consciousness against all billionaires.

I managed in 6 years, if I include the associate’s degree I got to fix the 2.5 wasted years. And I think going as to undergrad at 18 should be seen as precocious. Backpack around a bit and learn who you are as an independent adult.

Or you might discover you have a lot of unresolved trauma and fall into depressive states easily in the middle of a semester.

Probably not just a “me” thing.
