he sat out this election
No sympathy. Dumbass got what he voted for, that he didn't care if Trump won and did exactly what he said he was going to do. So why the sudden change of heart? Selfish fuck only cares when it impacts him personally.

I'm pretty sure "Spice Melange" is trolling. Idk how someone would understand and enjoy the plot of Dune (assuming the book because IDK if they even used that term in the movies) with this poor of an understanding of how trade works.
There's a gag in Futurama about ads being displayed in your dreams. If that were possible they'd be doing that, but right now they're settling for just the waking hours.
It's happening with pretty much all professions. I'm a chemical engineer and it's pretty much every role at my plant, the plan is just make everyone work so much they hate their lives, and then those people quit and make things worse for everyone else that's left and it's all fueled by an endless supply of fresh college grads who are just thrown into the deep end with the understanding that over half of them will get fed up and quit within a few years and those who stay will train the new ones coming in. It's not just engineers, it's operators, mechanics, maintenance coordinators, safety reps, anything you can think of. While technology technically allows fewer people to do the same work, that same work is just getting worse and worse because each employee has to do so many different types of things and have so much riding on them personally that they feel like they can't leave or take any time off without messing up the whole operation - there is no redundancy.
Everyone I know in the chemical industry is saying the same thing. Everyone is overworked and wages for chemical engineers have been stagnant for the past 20 years in spite of inflation and each employee delivering much more productivity than they used to. I have started to envy the production line staff who at least get overtime pay and don't have to think about this shit once they clock out. They just leave and it's the next shift's problem.
A lot of pitties had their ears clipped and tails dockedbefore their current owners got ahold of them. If you get a dog from the shelter that had its ears clipped are you supposed to just hide them under a sheet every time you go outside? Should shelters just kill these dogs to avoid the shame of showing them? This is an absolutely braindead take.
Lmao you saw what they got done in a hundred days, you really think there will be enough rule of law for voting to matter in 2026 if we don't do something sooner?
Ask your relatives and coworkers about it. Just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean it's not a big thing.
Yes but you, like everyone I seem to talk to these days, is under the false impression that Trump isn't a complete idiot who literally thinks tariffs are the solution to all problems. It's more comforting to think there's some massive conspiracy by Russia or that it's a ploy to make money off the stock market, but I truly believe that Trump actually thinks tariffs will magically fix the economy and his reactions to the backlash are legitimate shock that so many people and the markets don't agree. Yes Russia does stand to gain from this, but they don't need to pull the strings when the guy in charge is innovating economic policy so stupid that a smart person would have trouble even imagining it.
Trump decisions make more sense when you realize he is actually stupid as fuck and there's no hidden chess moves or anyone pulling the strings from the shadows. There is nobody at the wheel who is actually competent even if they're evil. This is all just the whims of a complete moron who is probably also going a bit senile as well.
It's alright. It's still full of SEO and AI slop but less so than DDG, Google, or Bing
Legitimately- what's the difference, in your mind?
Dude it still does. Try that shit man a big shitty sandwich and chips fucking goes hard

Idk I've definitely been in meetings that had "war room" vibes like you get like 20 people in a room to solve an urgent problem otherwise there will be a safety or environmental incident, or the company will lose millions of dollars. Then again most people's jobs don't have problems that can kill people or release toxic chemicals into the environment if something goes wrong.
