When I worked as a cleaner at a supermarket I got moved to the evening shift which used to have two people who got laid off.

I was on my own and it quickly became apparent that the shift needs two people to actually get everything done. I pointed it out, but the section lead (incompetent nepohire who was literally kicked out of every other section for being a terrible leader) just decided I was being slow.

Even after I broke down the hour per hour workload, they just insisted I had to learn how to work faster. One “tip” they had was to just throw water everywhere and mop it up to save time. Let’s not even get to the “mental health ping-pong table” they have.

Whenever I visit that supermarket today it still looks filthy.

I’ve been using Nobara for gaming a while now, and it’s certainly a good choice from by experience. It’s a modified Fedora distro that’s designed for gaming.

Here in the UK we just pretend it’s not a problem by calling it a lifestyle choice.

“Authorianism is bad”

“Wow this guy litteraly sees nothing wrong with murdering gay people!”

Somthing somthing horseshoe theory.

You don’t need to if you just want better options for your presidential candidates.

If Republicans wins, doesn’t that make you a “ineffectual whiny loser” too?

Man, if only there was some kind of like, party representative, whose job is to be the face of the party and their policies in order to motivate people to vote for that party. Oh well, might as well cry about Trump a million times over instead of thinking about how the party could improve it’s own odds of getting elected.

I just think we should hold our political representatives to a higher standard. Trump got in, for a number of cultural reasons I’m told, but a significant contributing factor was because Democrats pushed Hillary Clinton super hard under the assumption that they’d win anyway, and ended up alienating much of the left who didn’t like Hillary who, shockingly, didn’t vote for her.

Biden’s stance on Israel has likely alienated much of the voter base who has ties to Palestine or at the least are sympathetic to their struggle. I don’t like seeing patterns of loss in the party that’s supposed to be the good guys in the two honestly pretty bad parties.

Yeah if America was just honest about the political douloploly then merely being better than the worst option would be a valid strategy.

Unfortunately these pesky third parties seem to provide a better option to part of voterbase, and sadly the poor Democrats still have to compete with them too instead of just settling on being the least mediocre. So sad, so evil.

Yep, not denying that, and the solution is just for the Democrats to just not be a worse option that third parties. Democrats are not entitled to votes becuase they’re just better than the other bad option.

I mean in an ideal democracy voting for the party you actually like wouldn’t just lead to the party you hate the most getting more power.

I said third parties my gamer, as in people not voting either rerun of the crusty old guys.

As an outsider, I feel that the Democrats would have an easier time turning third parties over if they didn’t push a dementia patient who could lose the last of his competency next term.

Please don’t the dog.

Eastern Europe is going though it right now. One of my old Polish colleagues fled to the UK becuase the Church is slowly taking over and becoming totalitarian. Even if you have a miscarriage you’d be investigated to see if “it was done on purpose” or not.

(From what I remember, this was just at the tail end of covid)

The best way to refute a moral relativist is to simply kill them.

They’re not marketing to kids becuase:

A) it’s illegal in some countries

B) It should rightfully be looked down on

Probably good that a junk food merchant isn’t marketing to kids to heavily.

Most people over here are pro-returning artifacts. It’s just that it’s a common anti-British talking point and not many people actually have the agency affect what happens with the artifacts, so eventually it just gets frustrating to hear about all the time.

People forget that nobody makes true crime podcasts about a guy who took rejection like a normal person.

That doesn’t make the crazy people not a problem, but obsessing on what you read online will give you a skewed view of what people in general are like.
