  • I also hate that it hurts the argument for inclusion. When they write a half-assed script, shoe horn some minority character into it, and crap out something everyone hates. The people who don’t like that minority, are going to blame the minority for ruining what they love. All the while disney gets to pat themselves on the back because they helped out that community, it’s just the world needs to catch up to their progressiveness.



  • We have a filter on the cold water of our kitchen sink. We always just fill the dog jug with the filtered tap water because you’re not going to fill it with hot water. Well now they are spoiled and won’t drink unfiltered water. We tried to give them unfiltered water once and it just sat there for like two day almost untouched. Spoiled little assholes would die within a week in the wild.




  • The other day my wife called CVS trying to get her prescription filled at a different location. I listened to her for 10 minutes in an infinite loop of listening to an automated voice and hitting menu numbers. At about the time I thought she was about to murder someone I asked “would you like help!”. She said annoyed “I don’t know what you’re going to do that I haven’t, but sure”. I proceeded to hit 0 every time it tried to talk and it took hitting 0 like 50 times before it let me talk to a real fucking person. It’s insane just how hard it is to actually talk to real people anymore. I don’t care if the person barely speaks English and I have to use Google translate to fix my problem, you’re expensive AI isn’t better.

    My brother and I share an account. Awhile back we were having an issue where every time one of us got on, the language was set to Spanish. We each thought the others kids were doing something stupid, but after a little bit he I guess figured out someone in Mexico had got his account info. So maybe try changing your password.






  • I’ve never understood the idea of being mad about what another industry is making. They make more money than you? Great go put in an application. Don’t want to work in that industry? Then maybe they deserve the better pay. If you truly think you are that superior to the other industry then use their pay to bargain at your own job.

    If you’re a nurse who’s working long hours at a job that requires an education and you’re getting paid the same as a McDonald’s cook, don’t be mad at the cook, be mad at your employer. Go to them and demand a raise, and say I could work there for the same pay, spend more time with my family and not be responsible for keeping people alive. Pay me or I’m going to peace out.



  • To be fair there is bliss in ignorance. You can happily go about your life without a care right up till the repercussions force themselves upon you. For example, climate change. People made billions of dollars without considering the environment blissfully, and they will continue right up to the point that the air is unbreathable and the water is undrinkable. There is no bliss in realizing your demise, but to the ignorant these heatwaves are just a justification for their decision to buy a boat.





  • Man I used to be a fan of plutonium and uranium back when they were just getting discovered, but then everyone started to hear about them and they exploded on to the scene and became mainstream. Now they’re so refined they make me sick.

    I do like elements of what’s being made nowadays, and how they’re so much heavier, but they’re just so synthetic and I don’t see them hanging around very long.
