  • My employer provides us with a “tech allowance” as a bonus every month

    It’s not enough to buy a barely functional work laptop, but you can “buy a laptop” through them, and then forfeit the bonus until it’s “paid off”

    I’m kinda awful with money, so I pretty much need every cent I can get. That bonus goes towards keeping my head above water in the debt trap I’m in.

    So my “work computer” which requires their spyware antivirus to be installed is a virtual machine. It’s been two years and no complaints so far. Great antivirus.

    That bill sounds standard for healthcare in the USA, unfortunately.

    As far as I’m aware, a lot of psychiatric medication can take weeks or months before you start feeling the benefits. Let your psychiatrist know if you’re not responding to the treatment.

    Wishing you the best, mate.



  • It may be the lingering THC in my bloodstream, but I struggle to understand why anyone would be willing to deploy a nuclear weapon. Once one explodes, is it not totally game over for pretty much everyone?

Radioactive fallout, major supply chain breakdowns, famine, civil unrest and the obvious initial loss of possibly millions of innocent civilians.

    Like what the hell are we supposed to do man
