…i’ve not seen anyone leave at 17.00 in the private sector for thirty-five years…

…how late do you think americans work?..average winter sunset is at 17.30 at 30° latitude…

…i think we’re talking across each other: my point is that the majority of american workers currently commute home after dark in the dead of winter (as do i at 30° latitude, with most of the population north of me), so more than half of the country don’t even see the sun set…

…hence my skepticism that half the country leaves work before sunset…

…i live pretty far south and it’s already dark when i leave work midwinter…

…one of my recent projects uses a tower crane; it required a smaller crane to construct, however that smaller crane is also large enough to require an even smaller crane to erect: it takes a crane to raise a crane to build a crane…

…a friend literally peeled off her clothes, climbed into bed next to me, started grinding, and i presumed she was just acting silly; didn’t register that maybe she liked me until a decade later…

…what finally clued me in with another girl was her taking a call while we were talking late one night at work, “yeah, still at the office; just flirting with this cute guy i really like but i’m not sure he’s taking the hint; i don’t know, maybe another thirty minutes? okay, talk later!” then hangjng up and continuing our mid-conversation interruption like nothing happened…

…nope, none of the above: not a moral position, just don’t care for the genre at all…

(always found its fundamental power fantasy cartoonish + distasteful; even when the narrative tropes are subverted, the genre tropes remain offensive + played-out ad nauseum)

…i know disco elysium is highly lauded, but i just can’t bring myself to indulge police fetishism, so i’ll probably never play it…
