Looks like SpaceX is already the launch provider for it

Ain’t no way that isn’t supposed to look like meat

With dogs that big and only one person in the car, once you are on the road, if the dog decides to be somewhere, then they get to decide that. Just got a 70 lbs dog the other week and have learnt first hand how helpless you can be when they make a decision.

Fuck it, I’m saying it, I’m less productive when I work from home. I get to fuck off easier and I do genuinely miss in person collaboration on complex problems.

That said, I’m probably never going to work another job that is more than 2 day hybrid. If every company in the world decided they would go back to 100% in person, I’d have to go back to working harder but as long as some companies care a tiny bit about the wellbeing of their workers, there will be this continuous push/pull of most companies wanting to squeeze every ounce of juice out of every worker.

Tech is a weird industry tho. There are some companies that just rely on churn and burn through employees (cough cough spacex cough cough amazon cough cough). I’m lucky to have ended up in a specific sector where there is a lot of attrition due to frustration so they kind of just deal with the fact that they aren’t gonna get 100% out of everyone.

All that is to say is that there are some interesting dynamics at play and I’ll hold the line, but there is a grain of truth in there but fuck capitalism, not everything has to be done as efficiently and as profitable as possible. Let people just live and work and chill

One of my go to pieces of life advice for people is to just put stickers on things

“Vance mocked for [insert here]” being a common headline is a media trend I find funny. So shines a chuckle in a weary world

I’m not locked in here with you!

They hide behind “its only racism when im actively in the process of saying the n word out loud” but now i guess even that get’s an asterisk

Is there anyone using a crypto ATM for legitimate purposes? Probably should have to show an ID to use one but make it be that you have to be at least 21 years younger than the average life expectancy to use it

It could also be chargeworthy. I’d say there’s at least a notable chance someone conffeses to something when you two corrupt criminal egomaniacs with invincibility complexes together live

Ngl, that last line does cause me to involuntarily feel a warm flutter in my heart but then I remember that she says “god” would still love them instead of “I’d”

My immediate gut reaction to this is pretty viscerally against it. I guess as a foster parent, I’m used to society being up my ass about my parenting decisions and I’m fine with that.

I get it that it can be painful when you are told you are doing something wrong with raining a kid you love, but also, that’s the whole point of a society. I think this policy would point society in the direction of making parenting become even more individualized than it already is in the US. “It takes a village” has lost all meaning in this country and we need to work towards making society feel invested in everyone’s children

I don’t know what policies could lead to people without kids feeling more of a stake in how children are raised. Can’t think of anything realistic. It’s going to have to be a societal shift back. People don’t want to be around other people’s kids when they aren’t allowed to have any say in how those kids are parented.

People talk about other countries where it’s not impossible for someone in the town to discipline someone else’s kid. It’s inconveniencable in the US because we treat parents as an unquestionable authority and kids are treated like property. Whatever we do, we need to figure out how to move away from hyperindividualism, greed, and selfishness being rewarded/encouraged.

People being property and thus giving their owners an extra vote is a very republican policy now that I think about it…

A bunch of congresspeople wrote official letters calling for her resignation after the hearing yesterday.

I think we need more of upper management being held accountable when there major fuck ups. She might not have been directly responsible for the decisions on that specific day, but it happened on her watch. She’ll be fine and get a cush job at some security company.

I think there is a difference between messaging and denial. I feel like the Biden campaign often goes so far overboard when presenting the positives that it comes across as dismissive and tone deaf. Kind of like how it’s frustrating when someone in a debate doesn’t actually answer the question but instead just pivots to talk about whatever.

I don’t want no SS smoke so I’ll shup

jfc what kind of sacrifice do I need to make to what ancient diety to get him to step down?

I think we gotta have a conversation as a society about when the hand over the reins to the kids. I’m in my 30’s and glad life expectancy peaked cause seeing the gerontocracy from this end is horrifying.

Why is racist in qoutes?

I take no shame in the schadenfreude I experienced in hearing this

Is this house loss?

Eh, if the government fucks up then it has to pay, the taxpayers should pressure the government to not fuck up again if they don’t like having to pay for making people whole
