This cult sucks. Join mine, we do fun drugs.

I know this is in reference to something. It’s like a meme or ticktok or something.

My guess is he’s using that statement to sidestep criticism of layoffs. I mean, is it wrong to take the long view? No. Does that mean they had to lay off people and put them in a precarious situation? Maybe, maybe not. But the explanation that sounds palatable.

It’s because you’re lying. You don’t really love them. Your nose is growing.

That’s insane. It sounds like ebay must have a toxic culture to let that happen.

This article is obnoxious to actually read. Its funny that these lazy companies of cheap products are trying to use ai to write their copy for them, im assuming to save a buck, and those are fun examples, but where is the part where the reporting puts this in the larger context of why this is happening? Why are these trypes of companies making these choices? What does that say about our shopping habits and the stuff we choose to buy? Idk any actual meaningful/intresting question beyond look at this things that exists on the internet. If its in there I glossed over it because they leaned into their shtick too hard.

I’m trying to imagine what someone would use it for/want it for. It seems juat like more plastic crap for the landfill.

A good video exploring how conservatives enjoy star trek.

A girlfriends life revolves around home, they have homework, home room and they run away from home to live with their 38 year old boyfriend.

This kind of stuff is why I come here. Great post.

He literally broke stuff

hbomberguy did a good video on thunderf00t

I thought this was poetry

I wonder if it’s producing some ozone.

It’s what I started using and now I’m stuck. Anyone know of any export tools?

My straving student experience was much better than a lot of people but it still wasn’t a confortable one.

As an early to mid 2010’s student I had classes only two days a week but I had to be on campus most the day. I worked the other 5 days full time. I learned to cook cheap meals–rice, beans, ramen, etc.–and thats good and all, taught me to cook. The only problem, was if I stepped off the treadmill of life, like a week got hectic and I missed batching meals, I didnt have any time or energy to cook and there was zero money left to just buy something out quickly. There were many days at work and school I sat there hungry and distracted.

In hindsight, there was more I could have done to mitigate those experiences. But I didn’t know that then. I’m not a better person for those experiences. I wasnt as able to learn as heartily as desired and I lost out on a great internship opportunity I still kick myself for because it was unpaid and I couldn’t figure out what to cut out; food, rent, transportation, or the little money I could set aside for books the next semester.

That’s just my individual experience.

You guys are all getting down voted and this misses out on the pure entertainment value of these comments

I would also add that the capitalist class loves to promote the idea if America as the greatest nation on earth because that storyline benefits them. They’ve already won the game and are benefiting from our current system. They don’t want it to change.

If we admit we have shortcomings–large gap in wealth equality, lack of accessible and affordible health services, piss poor public transportation, unaffordable child care paired with living costs so large 2 incomes are required, poor school funding, pervasive gun violence, and Policing that emphasizes violence, just to name a few-- then we are also acknowedging that we have to change things. Why would those who greatly benefit from our current system want change?

For sake of argument, maybe HP is seen as it’s own thing now. It’s become so ubiquitous it’s sort of general fiction and not thought of as grouped with anything.

Which ones would you leave off?
