Listen, it was a celerity-induced accelerated somatic mutation rate, they’re totally fine now. Warp 10 is super safe.

No, they do a 360 into dinos and moonwalk away.

I read them, UN.

So there’s at least one more!

There’s no FOMO, there’s no reward for continuing on when you the people in front of you slow down, or you’ve been told to turn around.

There’s specific mentalities that contribute to crowd crush events and an organized peace march just doesn’t have that.

Also not an expert, just hyper fixated on disasters for awhile and crowd crushes and similar “stampede” events were a solid week of videos, papers, and news articles.

People won’t stand up for their neighbors and community when Nazies are rounding the others up

Because it doesn’t directly affect them yet.

“Then they came for my coffee”, and all that.

regular hours.

Apologies, but as someone who has never worked in an office, “regular hours” is a meaningless phrase.

Plus, im sure more than a few of the agents involved were salty at being yanked off real jobs to comb through thousands of pages to hide evidence their president is a rapist.

Pinch or 12 of salt and all that, but a coworker’s brother WAS in the FBI until June, and apparently a lot of people are actively quitting or bare minimum looking for new jobs specifically due to Trump and his administration

BUT HER EEEEEEEEMAAIILSSSSSSSS

There’s one just like that near where I grew up and now that I’m older I want to ask them about heating/cooling, because it’s got to be so much cheaper than a regular house.

I doubt they would get away with “almost zero” though since it’s basically buried with a small hill rather than dug down or cut into stonea cliff.

I imagine maintaining it can be a bitch though.

Wait till next year and you will see people burning down the White House.

Ooh, are we throwing an apology party for the Canadians?

This right here is exactly why I have no issue with the Luke and Lando destroying either death star.

Were there independent contractors present? Tons. Heaps, even.

I can tell you a contractors personal politics comes into play heavily when choosing jobs.

Anyone who knows the score and chooses to actively participate in evil and morally dubious business gets no sympathy if shit hits the fan.

Also as 3rd party labor, most recently I refused to do any jobs that took me into a Target. Lost out on about $3000 of work, but they will never get anything from me, even if they’re paying me for it (directly or not)

And here I thought you’d need an archeologist or a bunch of space dwarves to find the bar for that one…

N=N+1, apparently.

I worked as a bike tech for a sporting goods store and replaced most of the store tools with my own. The ones they had were all the cheapest crap from ebay or Amazon or something. One of the wrenches snapped on the first group of bikes we built when the store opened.

A nice tool that feels good in the hand will pay for itself with the comfort it provides.

I had to threaten to sue them because when they fired a bunch of us and barred us from the store, they tried to say those tools belong to them even after sending them the receipts for everything. And informing them where the box of original tools went. And having to call someone still in the store to bring me out the most expensive tool there and they had the audacity to tell me that me taking it would make their jobs harder because there was no replacement for it and if I could just be reasonable they’ll have a replacement in a month so I can come back then.

Just a guess, but when the person you’re replying to says “nestle” they mean “the company of nestle, it’s employees and all their bullshit” rather than “this specific person from the company” like most people…

I doubt many people are under the illusion that major players in any company are directly involved with astroturfing on websites they don’t own.

It’s always going to be a low level employee, possibly even an unpaid intern.

Hey now, that’s a misrepresentation of both the US and China.

China had way nicer locomotives in 96. It wasn’t 1896.

And in the US, that guy would have either been replaced by a machine, or replaced by someone younger who won’t be expecting the seniority and pay raises that being there for over 20 years usually gets you.

Why the fuck is it so hard for them to part with what they would consider pocket change?

It’s not about the money

It’s about “fuck you, I do what I want now do what I tell you or I will throw more money than most cities get in their yearly budget in order to ruin everything for everyone”

I’ll vote for you in the “most likely to get the joke one panel before the end” category at the award ceremony.

I would bet the entirety of my yearly pay that it was absolutely, 100% a joke and they have a perfectly healthy relationship.
