Depends on the job, I've worked mostly in customer service work so not getting people is a much bigger problem

It's kind of like being an eternal foreigner, you speak the language but you don't understand the subtleties and idioms and body language and references
I actually found it very refreshing when I immigrated because nobody thought it was weird that I didn't get stuff

My cat's gone :((((
She was a happy old lady

Technically he was the first to figure it out! "I think we might be in an alien zoo or on a prank show."

@stellaefons.bsky.social Saw this and thought you'd like it

I miss twitter so much tbh
I just can't be on a website run by a nazi. No judgement on anyone it's just that my grandparents literally fought nazi occupiers, they would be rolling in their graves so hard if I looked the other way

My 17 year old coworker was talking to another about a lame fandom they were really into when they were 12-14 and how they feel drawn to it again
I turned around and said "bad news, the thing you're into at that age will be with you in some way forever"

When my 20 year old coworker was going through her first! stress-induced depressive episode she said "This show is really cringy and dramatic but I'm just so invested, I don't know why"
and I said "Yeah that's because you have exams coming up, the second they're over it won't be as good anymore"

33 and I love imparting wisdom on my younger coworkers so much. It feels like I'm giving them spoilers for life

Video obtained by CNN shows the rear landing gear of the jet buckling and the right wing shearing away in a fireball after the plane landed hard on the runway.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

I feel like Catch 22 is one of the most obviously leftist books just bc the protagonist is a smart guy who understands the insanity around him in perfect clarity, but nobody takes him seriously because it's also turned him into a miserable, high-strung neurotic

And what's more leftist than that

A sense of solidarity can do a lot to counter unhappiness from bad situations or deprivation
When the people in charge are the cause there can't be solidarity with them

It gives me motivation to work on the short ones, and I often post longer fics chapter by chapter as I go anyway

I type directly into AO3 like a madwoman

Back when you were that size

Me: As opposed to what? Taking it professionally?

Maybe he'd like the left wing media and politicians to stop REPEATEDLY making the mistake of not considering a Trump win to be possible

Once was bad enough, again is willful ignorance and possibly malicious

This Valentine’s Day is gearing up to be even worse than last year and last year I had the unfortunate experience of witnessing my cat rimming her brother.

Hell I suspect the opioid crisis in the US played a big part in how the vaccine was received in certain parts of America

tbf there have been cases of doctors doing this kind of stuff, though usually with the goal to experiment on people not just kill them

Because we aren't rich :(

I don't like to judge people based on their appearances but dude

Now I'm picturing him as the protagonist of a YA dystopia novel

I mean is it even illegal in the Republic to be a Sith? Feeling hate or touching the dark side of the Force are not crimes on their own
He could easily say yeah I'm a Sith but can you prove I actually commit crimes or do you not like my approach to the Force

Looks cute actually

Not me realizing Aristotle and Plato’s philosophical musings are just early iterations of two dudes on a podcast 😭

(do not come for me philosophers, I will scream!)
