to the sorry adults ordering this shit, ya basic af, this is some real conformity marketed as nonconformity shit

I prefer to think of that rule as, “Out of hundreds of millions of people, a very small number of them are impossibly stupid, but that’s still a fuckload of people”

Ok.

Did I read this right? You doubt either one of them will survive to puberty? I’d ask if you’ve consulted a doctor about this, but I think the better question is have you consulted a mental health professional. I think doctors have been taking this very seriously, but thus far I’m unaware of any broad consensus - let…

“One or the other of them could have stayed home”

I’m 100% in favor of vaccinations (even mandatory for employment policies), health guidelines, masking, keeping distance etc but dude .. yours is poor risk assessment if you ask me. You’re probably exposing them to relatively similar risk levels simply by putting them in a car at all, given the numbers for covid…

ah crud and we haven’t even seen his teeth yet

MFA isn’t doxing yourself, captain dramatic

Now she needs something bigger

I always wonder what people with this attitude thing their bringing to the table.

I’m a capitalist. And if the above quote prompted that cute little screed of yours, you’ve got a real hang-up.

While I think that’s just the way the world is (maybe that’s just how math is is a more appropriate way to put it) culturally/socially dominant groups are sensitive to stuff like that because they’re not used to being the butt of jokes that single them out. But minority groups basically have no choice to be used to it…

“The good news is that there will be one capitalist less in the world, the bad news is that he is me.”

I loved that show so much.

“Game Devs And Stadia Employees Alike Were Blindsided By The Sudden Shutdown”

Goggle has enough money to paper over their failures. I don’t say that in a pejorative sense. They also probably have enough legal might not to give refunds, tho of course I recognize in practice providing refunds is about maintaining good - or at least minimizing damage to - brand relations and trust. It makes me…

“Not necessarily”, maybe, but the canary was super dead.

Sometimes I’m glad the first thing I ever worked on was binned after months of working on it. Got me used to the reality that you can’t predict the future and software development will never not involve sometimes working on things that never see the light of day. Shit happens. Shrug.

Just to be upfront, I ain’t losing any sleep over it. ;) But I admit it’s a little gratifying that that didn’t got unnoticed. It’s not like I didn’t think somebody wouldn’t inevitably complete the reference .. but hey, out of anybody who could have cashed in on the setup, I couldn’t have picked a more deserving recipie…
