I know you probably mean prostitutes or "escorts", but aren't porn actors also sex workers? I watch porn all the time, so do a lot of people. I feel sorry for the sad sacks who aren't "allowed" to look at porn because their significant other is so goddamn insecure, the idea of their partner having their own private thoughts scares the shit out of them.
Why the fuck are repulitards like cartoon villains except without the humor?
I used to be anti-gun, until I found out that Canadians own guns at the same rate as TEXANS. We Americans are losing our fucking minds. We're kept at each other's throats to distract us from the fact that the 1% are fucking us all over.
I'd watch it if they both just beat the shit out of each other with golf clubs.
You almost got it. The Totally Fucked class is there to remind the Not Rich class that it could be worse, and that if they rock the boat, they can easily be relegated to the Totally Fucked class if they miss a paycheck or two.
It will never happen. Biden is owned by the same people as Trump. There's only one party, the party of the Oligarchs. All of the petty shit about abortion, trans rights, gay rights, racial equality, gender equality, religion, second amendment, etcetera are all distractions to keep us all at each others throats while the rich cocksuckers figure out more insidious ways to fuck us all over.
At my apartments they have it in the lease that we are not allowed to use Drano, becase our pipes are pvc. I use a coathanger that I've put a little hook on with pliers. My gf has long hair, and sheds like a goddam collie.
It's easier for religious people to believe in original sin than to accept that one day they're going to die and they won't get to meet Space Santa.
One place I worked had end of shift meetings every day for the transition between third and first shift. First shift was supposed to get there 15 minutes early, but hardly ever did. This was a stand-up meeting at the end of an 8 hour shift. Look assholes, I'm tired and I wanna go home.Your disrespect of my time isn't helping my attitude toward this shit-hole company. Also, apparently, they didn't need to do this for second shift, because, you know, first shift is tired and wants to leave on time. Imagine that. I ended up quitting when they tacked on extra hours for us to work at the last minute during the week of Thanksgiving, so that effectively we'd still end up working 40 hours. What's the fucking point of holidays if you're just going to make us work more hours anyway?
Republicans are retarded maniacs and Democrats are gaslighting hypocrites who play dumb when called out on their bullshit.
Good thing too; the peppermint patty market is so oversaturated no one will ever guess what brand it is.
Laptop? How quaint. But my implant that connects me to the Musk Hivemind can project a laptop into my visual cortex to approximate a laptop, though in 2054 the most popular interface is similar to the dildocycle that Mr. Garrison invented on episode 76 of South Park.
I was thinking about this recently. You know the MLK quote about the universe bending toward justice? The eventual heat death of the universe is the only way everything will be equal.
If you do not pay us the IRS, we will put you under the rest.
I used to work at Lenovo's fulfillment center through a temp company. The organization of the place (or lack thereof) is a complete clusterfuck. At the time I worked there, something like 5 to 10% of their inventory was "lost", as in, it was somewhere in the building, but no one could find it since it's location is no longer in the system.
Portia De Rossi
Before he was elected I said "what kind of an idiot could bankrupt a fucking casino? Those things practically shit money." Some assholes who I used to be friends with used to tout his bussiness skills, but they also claimed that a Confederate flag was their "heritage". I suspect they only liked him for being a bigot.
Sure they have lockput/tagout. You sit through an hour long video, then sign a sheet where you promise to obey the safety rules. Then when you actually try to do things by the book, your supervisor asks you "what the fuck are you doing?" and says "we don't have time for that". One place I worked had a peg board with everyone's lock and key for lockout/tagout; all of the locks had about a 1/4 inch (@ 6 mm to our European friends) of dust on them from lack of use.
My favorite song from this album (Superunknown) has got to be Mailman. This is one of those rare albums where I can just listen to the whole thing without skipping a song.
Gen-Xer here, and I used to hate those furry-tailed rats. In one of my old apartments, one lived in the eaves of my building near my window and used to wake me up chewing on shit all the time. I've worked 2nd and 3rd shift jobs most of my adult life, and have found it hard enough to get other humans to respect my sleep time, let alone some rabid rodents that everyone else thinks are cute. I'm pretty much indifferent to them now, not being a property owner, but I can definitely understand why people hate them.
There used to be a clip on Fu Kung (remember that?) where a dude set up a trap on his back porch with a basket and some bungie cords, and when the squirrel took the bait, the guy cut the tether and flings the unsuspecting little bugger like 30 or 40 yards.
I'm on my 2nd reading of Bullshit Jobs by Graeber, I'll have to pick up Debt; I hear a lot of good things about it.
Good luck with that. On an unrelated note, how's that arrest of a certain Israli war-criminal going? Or a certain Orange Asshole former, and maybe future POTUS?
I know that sounds dismissive, but if you have no healthcare and can't afford a place to live, and your right to dissent is eroded every day, then all of the other differences won't matter when we're dead.
I'm quitting Prime this month; on top of being twice as expensive as the rest, the greedy mf-ers are adding commercials with a price hike if you want no commercials. Also quitting Disney+ and Hulu for lack of content and lack of funds. I'll be quitting Netflix next. I quit Paramount+ a few months ago now that I'm all caught up on watching all the Star Trek series.
Well I didn't until now.
It's really quite a accomplishment considering people aren't going to movies like they did pre-covid. I saw the matinee and spent $19.50: $8 for admission, $11.50 for a medium soda and medium popcorn. Highway fucking robbery.
Anti-Zionism is not Anti-Semitism.
Anti-Zionism is not Anti-Semitism.
Anti-Zionism is not Anti-Semitism.
Free Palestine.
Not surprised; BOA is the fucking Taco Bell of banking. The only one worse that I can think of is Wells Fargo.
First you have to be a little light in the loafers. jk, jk
Worse, Hulu advertises the fucking show I'm currently watching.
Shit, that's hillarious. I could see someone doing a whole YT channel of sober me vs. drunk me arguements. Way better than "WaTcH tHiS (insert demograhic) pErSoN lIsTeN tO Led Zeppelin FoR tHe FiRsT TiMe".
I don't believe he gives much of a shit either way about politics. I think he reacts which ever way he thinks the wind is blowing in order to get more clicks, and thereby, get more money. The only thing I ever saw him get passionate about was when he was going apeshit over Chinese bot-farmers in WoW. I figure Blizzard must have paid him a huge wad to shut him up, because I hardly see him comment on gaming anymore, but I hardly watch him anymore either because he's just too annoying.
There's a government spy project called Palantir. Kind of on the nose to LOTR nerds like me. For those who don't know, the palantirs were the crystal balls in LOTR that wizards could use to communicate or remote view what other palantirs could see.
Peanut butter. Generic peanut butter is downright nasty. Skippy or Jiff for me.
Why is this story getting downvoted? Do the shitlibs here on Lemmy really still carry water for Grampa Joe? And by "shitlibs" I mean you bougie, pretend liberals who wave the rainbow flag while still supporting a warmongering old racist POS. This is what the DNC gets for fucking Sanders over twice.
This is Bob. Bob has bitch tits.
I also came up in an abusive household, so here's somerhing to think about: who's worse, the abuser who only knows abuse because they were abused, or the one who allows it to happen even though they know it's wrong? That's what we have now. The reps suck, no doubt, but the dems sit back and twiddle their thumbs and allow the corporations to fuck us all over while pretending to give a shit. They don't give a shit because they've sold us out for a little bigger piece of pie.
The first season stuck mostly to the first book. The second season was based on about 1/3 of the third book and 2/3 of stuff they pulled out of their ass, which is probably why it seems so disjointed. They hardly touched the second book, which focused on how corporate captured governments start wars to maintain the military industrial complex.
The lowest dollar amount on Jeopardy! is $200 now and Alex Trebek has been dead since 2020, but yeah, I think so. Have an updoot.
I recently quit my job over this exact thing. I am (was) the highest producer in my department for a certain metal part in my whole department. My department consisted of 4 different machines and ran 3 shifts. The next highest producer in my department might have 70 to 75% of my production for the year. I found out one lazy ass, who's output is less than half of mine, makes a dollar more that me.
