I don’t have any friends, really. Not since Covid.

This already happened. People looking up CPR instructions because a loved one is dying, only to be met with three unskippable ads.
Goodbye Meemaw.
I grew up getting talked over at home. At school I was bullied and ostracized. After entering the workforce, I’ve been quietly beaten down at every workplace and made to feel like I should STFU at all times.
Today, people ask me why I’m so quiet most of the time and why I don’t attend non-mandatory work functions or teambuildings anymore. I can only smile faintly and fakely while agreeing with them that I must be shy or simply have nothing to contribute.
It is what it is.
The last console I owned was a megadrive and I still don’t feel I ever missed out on anything at all.
Sure, that’s definitely a country that needs more wishy washy magic crap on top of all their current issues.
Doomscrolling? That’s actually part of the problem, lol.
I got put on Ritalin. Was told it’s a miracle drug. All it does is make me extra nervous and jittery but it doesn’t help my (lack of) motivation at all.
He fucking PAID for CP. I’m so goddamn sick of these “laws for thee but not for me” crowd. I wish every single one of them the most painful hell imaginable. Fuck.
We wouldn’t even be able to restart. All the easily available resources have been delved. Three thousand years ago people could scoop pure gold from rivers by the kilos. Today, all decent deposits lie kilometers below the surface.
But it’ll be for the best. We had our shot and blew it.
Between AI and shitcoin mining, these two “technology branches” already consume more power than all the green power added to the grid combined.
It’s why humans will always remain de facto slaves to a few masters. Anything that could potentially be advantageous to all life on Earth? Only if the ones at the top get to profit first. No profit? Enjoy scorching to death on hell-planet for the next forty years!
South Park completely nailed the “removeds” episode. That was one for the ages. Aww c’mon, are we really worse than Reddit when it comes to censorship? Goddammit… Seems the “removeds” won.
It used to be worth it. It isn’t anymore. You have access to the internet. Use it.
I liked this joke better when it was about async. Fits the purpose better.
I can spend an entire long weekend vaccilating between these two, while not actually doing anything at all or advancing any goals, AND arriving back at work on Monday feeling so much worse than I did before the weekend started - only to crave more time off that I wouldn’t actually know what to do with anyway.
Someone mercy kill me, please.
I’m pretty firmly in the second category only. I have had the first a few times, but when whatever thing you were so stoked about inevitably fries or fails a few weeks in, you quickly learn to stop doing #1 altogether.
Every textbook today comes with a goddamn one-use code, and they’re made in such a way that they’re useless without it.
It’s theft and extortion. But what are we going to do about it?
Yeah, thought so.
The poorest one, most likely.
110K/mo was bound to attract attention. So, purely hypothetically, uhh, what would the lowest cutoff be before eyebrows start raising?
Lol mine does it if I keep perfectly still, so any overwhelming going on is purely of her own making. Luckily she’s tiny and her claws don’t really penetrate. And god, those sorry licks inbetween…
Man, I wish Cleese would’ve just disappeared from public view twenty years or so ago. I really loved Monty Python but he’s such a terrible human being that I can’t enjoy it anymore.
Not too unlike JKR. Some people could’ve just shut up and done NOTHING and the entire world would still be celebrating them as some kind of heroes.
