I mean, that thing is working so hard it turned the entire surrounding countryside into desert!

Turns out, productivity soars when you have a well rested, well compensated, well treated, healthy, and housed people who don’t have constant stessors of literally every aspect of their lives nearly crumbling beneath them…

Let’s say left door lies and right door tells the truth. Right door leads out.

Left door would lie and say “right door would tell you I am the door that leads out”

Right door would tell the truth, and say “left door would say LEFT door leads to freedom”. Since left door does not lead to freedom, left door would lie and say that left door is the correct one.

No matter which door you ask, they will have the same answer.

So you would choose the opposite door of whichever one they say.

Everyone makes fun of Tim, but BUT WAS RIGHT!

LOOK AT THE BONES!!!

You’re right, you clearly don’t have anything of substance to say.

“stealing art for my/my favorite techbro’s computer project should be legal and since it’s not yet, I’ll go around completely misrepresenting arguments in order to make them seem like they are the ones who are out-of-touch”

you begin manufacturing explosives in order to demolish all future trolley tracks, trying to ensure nobody is ever forced to choose again. Misunderstanding your purpose, you are arrested, and the people cheer that a terrorist has been brought to justice. Your pleas fall on deaf ears and people insist the trolleys are good, the trolleys are necessary.

True, it’s not a great plan. But it’s not your fault. You can never move on from… the trolley problem.

My condolences to your digestive tract…

I’ve managed to get two first round interviews, and I’m a “perfect candidate” for one and have been invited to a second interview. They dropped a surprise drug test that wasn’t mentioned at any point before, and while they won’t find any hard drugs, THC is legal in my state. So if I get past the second interview, I have to just hope they don’t care about thc.

At least if they do, I’ll have wasted their time as much as mine, and more importantly, their money on the tests.

Also sometimes I use a photo editor on my phone.

The crayon scribbles of my 3 year old nephew on the back of a soggy napkin holds more value than a mountain of AI slop.

I would still say I don’t understand written German, and I certainly couldn’t understand SPOKEN German, but I understand enough to understand the memes.

So thanks for that, ich_iel!

At least some nutters have the decency to say that it’s mind controlling chemicals, not the “you’ll be dead soon” kind.

Kind of like the covid vaccine. I should have been dead in 3 6 8 months a year 2 years 3 years 4 years I’ll be dead in 5 years!

water soluble powder

Oh god I’m having flashbacks… That shit is nasty.

YOU SLEEP ON A FARM NAZEEM

YOU HAVE NOTHING IN THE CLOUD DISTRICT

Bitch ass posers thinking they’re better than us just because they walk around the fancy area of town sometimes…

Also your whole city is 30 people.

You ain’t fancy, bitch.

Sounds like your friend is just lame.

In seriousness, 99.999999% of people will live a “normal” life, and very occasionally, someone might have a time or two that elevates it above “normal”. The percentage of people who live “above” normal lives is so tiny, physicists would laugh at you for using so many decimal places.

Wanting more isn’t a problem unless that desire is killing what you have to be happy about now.

In other words, “don’t let perfect get in the way of good”

And I’ve heard all the platitudes.

I like to make people uncomfortable when they start going on about how my wife and I should have kids. She had a TL and I had a vasectomy. I usually start off with “kids are off the table for us.”

We SHOULDN’T have kids because genetics on both our families are shit.

We WON’T have kids because they’re awful to deal with 90% of the time, and neither of us feel that the world will be a livable place in their lifetime so it would be cruel to have children anyway.

We CAN’T have kids because the medical procedures.

If someone gets pushy about it, I act emotional, burst out that after so many miscarriages we have given up on children and the person should learn to take a hint.

So far nobody has had anything else to say after that.

birth bath

Uhhhhhh you should probably at least drain out the placenta fluid…

The frequent lack of desire for people to experiment and learn anything on their own is very off-putting.

Any time I hear someone say “I didn’t think about that” when dealing with a very simple problem, I just want to pull out “How long did you piss on the toilet seat before someone told you to lift it when you go?”

Seriously, I shouldn’t have to describe how to remove the ball bearings from this part, because I explained how to do an identical one 2 minutes ago.

I love taking things apart to know what makes them work. Electronics and mechanical devices are fascinating.

And I don’t understand how someone can look at things and go “yeah no need to look any deeper, I know enough already”
