Gen Z are out here center parting their hair and wearing high-waisted flares and cropped tees, acting like they invented it, and having no idea they’re just cosplaying ‘70s Boomers. Hilarious.

Exactly what I thought when I read it. Everyone involved has made pretty much all the money there was to make from this relationship, so now they feel comfortable citing “concerns” and going their separate ways. Everybody knew about allegations like this going back more than a decade, including specifically from Evan…
The only person I personally know who has gotten a vaccine so far in my state is my grandmother. She is 87, in a nursing home, and has such severe dementia that she doesn’t know her own name. I had surgery a couple of weeks ago and was talking with the nurses and surgeon beforehand, and they said that none of them had…
Nope.
Maybe that would be enough? Deactivating it in your quest log, doing something else, reactivating it, reentering the area? Probably you already tried that, but I thought I’d mention it. Otherwise, the only consolation I can offer is that it’s not by any means a “big reward” type quest.
A lot of developed countries are hitting the point where a “pay for babies” scheme starts sounding appealing as their populations level off and start to drop. I’m not sure how effective this would be in the US given... everything...
I had this and had to reload an earlier save and try again. That’s the only thing I know of that fixes it.
What I got out of reading the op-ed was...
In all seriousness, I think that’s it. That and a bit of “successful author syndrome” where there’s no “editor” left to tell them something is a bad idea or tell them no.
God, imagine being in any grade from kindergarten to high school and your classmates knowing your real name is Baby. Imagine being in college and having to introduce yourself to a crush or to potential new friends as Baby. Imagine going to a professional networking event and having to explain to every. Single. Person.…
I got some version of, “Tenite is bright but just does the minimum, I’m expecting moooooooooooooore...” on every report card from kindergarten through the end of high school without ever having anyone able to articulate what “more” was supposed to be, given that I was doing the same assignments as everyone else,…
Somebody on Twitter, in discussing Bean Dad, told a story about how their teacher spent most of a math class writing the measurements of the sides of right triangles on the board and saying, “Notice anything? Notice anything?” and became very upset when it turned out none of the children in the class were able to…
Class solidarity > any other kind of solidarity.
A friend’s mother is a (former) nurse and is spouting the exact same line of crap. “Covid is fake so hospitals and so on can profit.” She’s still blithely riding around the countryside refusing to wear a mask or distance. How she hasn’t gotten it yet is anyone’s guess.
And, per NPR, knowingly injected 57 patients with spoiled, useless vaccine.
Around here (small city/large town, upper midwest, limited job prospects, not close to anything) a $50,000/yr. salary will put you in a two bedroom apartment and might let you rent but not buy a small house. It would take you a long, long time on that salary to save up the $40k-50k expected down payment for a modest…
This is minor, but it was also strange to me that after all the hype they built up about how much style and appearance matter in Night City, it turns out that in-game it actually a) doesn’t matter at all and b) is very hard to exert any control over for any amount of time. What you’re wearing only has stats that…
Yeah, this. It has “Fallout 4 Disease” where the way the game is actually played and best enjoyed is completely at odds with the ‘omg go as fast as you can!!!’ tone of the main plot.
It’s wild to me how it apparently never occurred to corporations or policymakers that by creating such severe wage stagnation that just maintaining a modest household nowadays absolutely requires both adult partners to be working at least one job simply to survive, they were making it nearly impossible for people to…
I wrote this and got an email like four hours later saying they’ve jettisoned a bunch of upper-middle management types and are hiring new ones for a new! Exciting! Pivot! To sales! The jokes write themselves.
