I've basically worked for three companies in my career. I've been lucky enough to vibe with the company culture at two of them.

i.e. my current job is batshit insane and I kind of love it ๐Ÿ–ค

I'm reading an urban fantasy story written by a Brit and wow, do they have opinions on the current British royals.

Hilariously, Queen of the Damned is the only one of those I've seen... wait, no, I saw about a third of the Interview movie while stoned out of my mind on cough syrup

Ways to choose your #arkhamhorror character:

- Thoughtful consideration of the strengths and weakness

- Totally random grab

- Trying to balance the party

- "Fuck, yeah, he's got a flamethrower!"

- "Who's got the best tits?"

Friend's birthday yesterday - she wanted soup and to play #arkhamhorror with as many expansions as I had. It took us almost 9 hours to beat the game with me as essentially the DM. My ass hurts from sitting on a hard wood dining bench and I sleepy

I've done 3 permadeath streams in the last month and had 5 characters die. I really, really liked the last one - Echo the teenage orc who joined House Telvanni to support her baby sibling.

*The characters get names from the NATO phonetic alphabet

**House Telvanni gives no fucks about child labor

"historically Earth was less vulnerable, somehow. It was as though around that solar system was a beacon transmitting HERE AND NO FURTHER, in the tongue of every enemy. As though their own malevolence and gift for the unanticipated and gleefully sadistic was somehow tangible in space itself"

"What Earthlings meant, when they said, "It can't be done", was not that a thing was impossible. It was that they had not yet figured out how to achieve it, and were inviting everyone around them to prove them wrong."

"Spock...was deeply, deeply fluent in Earthling. It was not a language all its own, in fact if anything it was a dialect which spanned Earthโ€™s myriad languages. Spock was able, at any given moment, to understand at least 50% of whatever it was Montgomery Scott was doing at any given moment."

Ok, #murderbot was a good adaption. I love the cast. I didn't expect to end up liking Gurathin as much as I did, Pin Lee was great, and Dr. Mensa ๐Ÿ˜ The part at the very end where she wakes up to find it gone and Sec Unit's voiceover calls her it's "favorite human".... just *chef's kiss*

Inflated prices. Which come out of our taxes.

I do air, not ocean, where the flag covers the entire airline, not the individual both, so this is all very bizarre to me too.

It gets more complicated (and expensive) for Americans because the Jones Act specifies that US government and government-impelled shipments must move on US-flagged vessels. Unfortunately, the only folks who still register vessels in the USA are those pursuing this business, which leads to ridiculous

The countries that issue them are places like Liberia, Moldova, and the Bahamas - it's a way to make good money, but they don't have the infrastructure to enforce basic fucking standards. Hell, Moldova is 99.9% landlocked. Which means the rest of the planet has to deal with shitty ass boats crewed
