This makes me wanna play Thea again

That’s misophobia, misophonia is when you don’t like how soy paste sounds.

Brilliant, very meta, love it

It’s no borat in Skyrim that’s for sure

I like the lighting and composition but it looks a little fried, how hard did you sharpen?

Wh-what are you doing, step-bother?

What’s fucked up is that if you die here you die for real

How long will we continue to get news stories whenever a minor entity leaves X (formerly Twitter)?

If he were smarter and/or not a walking ego then yeah, that would have been the move. Though if he were smart he probably wouldn’t be in this mess.

It’s not. He never wanted to buy twitter, he just wanted to pump and dump the stock, but because he is stupid and the plan was obvious they sued him to make him honor the deal.

So if he just turned around and shut the company down, it would give the SEC legal grounds to argue that his intention all along was market manipulation.

My understanding is that the SEC would have fucked him if he just shut it down, because it would indicate that he never intended to buy it in the first place and instead was just trying to manipulate the stock market (which is definitely what he was doing).

That may be true for warehouse employees, but the corporate offices are a toxic mess of shitty culture and dated ideas. I’ve never seen a tech department bleed so much underpaid talent to Amazon.

When I quit because they tried to force me back into the office mid-pandemic (August 2020) I had multiple offers for fully remote positions with twice the salary within a few weeks.

But yeah, if you are a cashier at a warehouse or whatever I hear it’s a solid gig.

When I was at Costco, for Member Service Week they literally gave us a rock, like from the gravel outside the office, with the note: “You rock!”

Biden has definitely been a mixed bag on climate, but here’s a recent win. The admin is aware of pressure from the public on environment, they know they need us to keep winning.

It’s not actually about listing the fees. They’re worried that if they have to list the fees, customers will realize they’re paying 19.99 a month to rent a router, or are getting charged for a land line they didn’t ask for.

Hah, this was about 10 years ago - I doubt anything I wrote is still around.

When I used to do copywriting for junk SEO, I began to suspect that my editor didn’t actually read anything I wrote and just passed it through a content uniquness filter, so I started putting in random references to HP Lovecraft stories in the articles I got assigned.

They all got published, no questions asked. For a while if you searched “Homeopathy and the Esoteric Cult of Dagon” my content was the only result

No takes-es, only throw-ses

Should have also mentioned Mount & Blade, Warband is the old but gold with lots of great mods (Prophecy of Pendor is excellent if you want some low fantasy) but M&B2: Bannerlord is coming along.
