@PolishHeadlock2 given what you just said I know you'll appreciate this.

Had a team meeting via webcam last week asking how everyone is doing and feeling about the budget email we got (basically saying how the yearly bump we all get is put off until about July).

"Greg?"
"You don't want to know how I feel"
"Seriously let us know"
"Nah... I'm good"
"....."
"Let's just say that after the third empty feeling mass email of 'thank you for being so flexible' came out... not getting any monetary or extra time off has me feeling like Carol/Cheryl from Archer debating lighting my trash can on fire"
"Ok then....."
 
The lounge sure has been spicy today. Also.. I'm beginning to think the homeless people all shared either K2 or bath salts because the crackheads are acting tf out today. Reminds me of the time I was at my old job watching a bunch of 'em do heroin for a birthday then get into the slowest group brawl I've ever seen in my life, followed by a pretty wild OD. I think I posted the video here back then.

On a political note though....Does anyone else just absolutely adore Katie Porter?




That Ben Carson "Oreo" thing is the stuff of legends

Accuse your boss of being racially insensitive

Next time they ask you let them you know, that you know, that the Stimulus Bill includes $350B for state and local government to address their budget shortfalls so now they have no fucking excuses. Those fuckers will be FLUSH in 2-3 weeks
 
Our head of HR is a 65 year old lady.... My direct report VP told me he'd find a work around (push my official leave date back a week even though I'll be gone) but it still pisses me off because other people are getting fucked on this


Break things and go on strike. Occupy the building get involved with the mob .... be creative work the problem seek a solution!

lol.

I like my boss and it's not her fault. It's partially because I'm a public sector employee so everything is up for debate in the budget and shit and the head of our office crafted a deal to offset our raises as long as our empty jobs got to be filled this coming year.

I get it but it also annoys me.

Oh believe me I have kept track of that stuff.

Pretty sure Utah hasn't even used a ton of what we were given the first go round last year.
 
Her political shtick has gotten a little tired imo. Also, she voted against the bill to return voting rights to ex-felons.

I do think she is a more (superficially) impressive wonk type than Warren ever was. I don't think she'll ever be a viable presidential candidate, for truly unfortunate reasons, but I would be extremely interested to see her on a debate stage.
I can see why you can see why it's grown a little tired, but as we saw with the failed steak/university/airline salesman becoming a messiah that soundbites do matter. I also find her conviction earnest, and her beliefs pure.

A shame about the ex felon stuff, but we on the left have a tendency to immediately write off an ally over a singular issue, look at all the people who refused to vote for Biden even though, while extremely problematic and a thorn in the side of leftist progression, was a clear case of harm reduction.

I would very much like to see her on the debate stage, she absolutely scorches people in her questioning. You kind of read between the lines, I was wondering if she would ever be a viable presidential candidate.

It's like in that thread about the lady abusing her dog in the park and she called the cops on dude blubbering about how an African American threatened her. All the chuds in there were like "What's the big deal" when I said her ass needed to go to jail for that. WE know what it means when a white lady starts crying when she's staring down consequences, and there's no circumstance where it ends well for us. She could be about to kill me, but let some magic tears go, and all of a sudden it's the scary black man harming the white damsel and now MY life is in danger. She tried to subject that man to police violence for not keeping her dog on a leash, and she needed to pay for that shit.

Extremely valid point you made, let us also remember the amount of fucking lynchings that happened because a white woman said a black man (often kid) touched her.

There was a recent video on Reddit of two methed out white ho's screaming racist shit two a couple Latinas and their response was "I'm white, who are the cops going to believe"

It's a prevalent theme in American society and one that reinforces the idea that racism is still alive and well in the US. We see it to this day on this very subforum, I decided to quit talking about BLM and all that when someone refused to say the cops were in the wrong for forcing a baton into a black mans hand while they beat him shitless last summer, and the refusal of acknowledging that BLM protesters numbered in the millions, they refuse to accept reality to perpetuate the idea that it was all rioting (@Limbo Pete valiantly took one for the team on this subject)

Did you read about this?
https://www.insider.com/black-couple-lowballed-on-home-price-because-of-race-2021-2

An appraiser who visited the home to assess the value of the property said it was only worth $989,000, just $100,000 more than when they originally purchased it, despite the renovations adding an additional 1,000 square feet to the home.

"I read the appraisal, I looked at the number I was like, 'This is unbelievable'," Tenisha Austin told the Atlantic Black Star.

So the Austins decided to perform an experiment: A white friend of theirs posed as the owner of the home, adding photos and personal touches to make it seem like she lived there, and called in another appraiser to evaluate the house. The second appraiser said the house was worth $1,482,000 — about 50% more than the initial appraisal.

Late Stage Capitalism is something else.
 
You can't answer questions like a normal human being. Insinuating that somebody is fake and treats people as if their subhuman is not a reasonable answer to a reasonable question.

This was the question: "Do you think parents should be able to spend those checks on casino betting and/or tattoos for themselves?" and it was in response to me posting analysis of the package.

edit: you obviously care more about appearing like you care about poor people than you actually care about poor people. You have no idea what would have passed in your alternate reality where. Joe Biden isn't POTUS. There is no reason to believe that this bill wouldn't have passed under Bernie Sanders. And for the record, I've remarked several times how pleasantly surprised I've been by Joe's administration so far.

Joe Biden won the Democratic primary. The choice in the general was Biden vs. Trump.


Yeah, did you read that?

And you got triggered af and jumped to all sorts of whacky conclusions.

Are you suggesting I voted for Trump?

Huh? You were "triggered af" by the reduction in child poverty not being accompanied by some provision to make sure that the dumb poors don't waste all their money on tattoos. The real solution to poverty apparently isn't giving people more money; it's just doing something about Big Tattoo.

I don't know who you voted for. I remember you openly voted third party in 2016.

You should post your original post. I went through your last couple pages of post history but didn't see it.
 
I don't care what anybody say's Ethan Hawke is a great actor. Nicholas you need to read his book, it's really good.

Don't care what anybody say's Ethan Hawke is a great actor. Also read his book, A bright ray of darkness.
I've actually seen his novel referenced pertaining to absurdist philosophy. Albeit because @Trotsky was so convincing in his silly Crowder post I was pulling up Absurdist explanation videos until I realized he was quoting Cunt Crowder.

Did you finish the show? I rewatched the entire series a few days ago and it still kills me.
I voted for her and will continue to vote for her
I feel like she's an older AOC who isn't reliant on twitter for support.
Haven't seen Hell Girl yet. Where can I find it?

I IRL shitpost constantly when I was working bars. Makes the time go faster.


The way some people go after a former spouse for "maintenance" as it's called now makes me sick.
Oh man, when I was working at a bar, I would IRL shitpost by walking past the retired drunks and just saying "wikileaks" or "Obama" and watch old people get into fistfights. Ironically I was threatened to be fired from that bar for bringing up Chelsea Manning and apparently now they're all Q followers.

That Ben Carson "Oreo" thing is the stuff of legends
Incredible work, by the way I adore the fact that you were accused of being pro riot despite you constantly putting me in a realistic perspective all summer lmao.
Katie porter is excellent. There needs to be more people like her on the democrat side of the aisle

Well it seems to be the future of the DNC. Did you see this?
https://theintercept.com/2021/03/08/nevada-democratic-party-dsa/
The entire staff of the Nevada Democratic Party quit after Democratic Socialists hit that clean fucking sweep.
“For a slate that claimed that they were all about unity … that’s what was surprising about it, was the willingness to just walk away, instead of working with us.”

The DSA is creeping, but what is most important is continuing to back policies that benefit every American regardless of their ideology.

BTW join the IWW. Get your red card, an injury to one is an injury to all.
