I mean pay is also important, but assuming a comfortable paycheck, the time off to use it is more important than dying the richest man in the graveyard.

Fuck me sideways. We need to dismantle capitalism like yesterday.

Oh that looks cozy!

As someone who has no less than two dozen stuffies on the bed right now I can tell you they do love you because you love them.

Honestly I can’t remember the last time my life was on “Play.” I’ve been stuck in the same job so long it’s had two name changes and an acquisition since I started. It’s decent money and I can tolerate the work which is largely why I’m still there, because almost everyone I knew when I started has left or been fired. And I’m so afraid that if I leave or get let go I won’t be able to find anything else because the job market’s been absolute dogshit.

I’ve been experimenting with my gender presentation. I did a full body shave and picked up a skirt. I don’t think it’s helped me feel better about my body. I just kind of want to be a brain in a jar or a stuffed animal or something that doesn’t look like a complete pile of shit no matter how it’s dressed up.

Oh, you mean the oligarchy that put Trump in the office the first time? The one that put you in the office after Trump completely fucked up the economy? The one that’s been selecting both presidential candidates for the last, oh, I don’t know, five decades? Six? Longer, probably? The one that’s been crushing the spirit of every living person around the world with the promise of a meager subsistence life, and that’s if they like you or you’re convenient to their ends? And they’ll throw you on the pyre of capitalism if it earns them a single cent more? That oligarchy?

Yeah, sure. Thanks for giving it the old college try, Joe.

Really? I don’t get that at all, I understand exactly where they’re coming from. I don’t mind public toilets but I love being able to take shits in the privacy and cleanliness of my own home.

Switched to Firefox in 2023 and it’s wild how much shit just works now.

There’s a sandwich shop around Vancouver that’s only open like 10-2 on weekdays so I hardly ever get to go, but they get their bread from a local bakery every morning and it makes all the difference. It’s a simple turkey and cheddar sandwich, lettuce, tomato, pickle, a hint of mayo and Dijon mustard, but the ingredients are all quality and, again, the bread is fresh and super soft.

Falling Down

I get this with a young (30’s) CEO at a small business. Dude has literally zero follow through, he will ask for things, you will do them, he will forget he asked for them, and then complain you didn’t do an entirely unrelated thing that he never asked for. I am genuinely astounded at how he makes it to the office the few days he’s actually here.

Yeah, definitely misread that myself.

To OP, I see a lot of people with anthro PFPs posting from Pawb, maybe look into that instance?

I do nice things for other people when I’m up to it, but I hesitate to call myself a ‘nice person’ because niceness isn’t necessarily an intrinsic quality, in the same way that I can be a transient dumbass at times without thinking of myself as an idiot.

Respecting the LGBTQ+ community.

As a lifelong customer of Dwarven Forge, I understand your pain.

I look like the archetypical IT guy. 30s, balding, overweight, like I’m constantly about to have a nervous breakdown (I am.)

I half expect to see “Depressed Boeing employees come forth with shocking allegations, then go up to rooftops” on another one of these sites.

I mean, I’m not trying to play DA for shitty-ass Boeing here, but coincidences do happen. I’m certainly more likely to believe this death was a result of bad luck than the suicide from a guy who told his family, and I quote: “If anything happens, it’s not suicide.”

But if it’s raining you’ll void the warranty!

U.S. workers already shoulder the losses of their corporations. Almost every business runs a skeleton crew to maximize profits for the people at the top and when the whole thing inevitably falls apart, they get shit-canned and the C-Suite gets golden parachutes on their way to the next cannibalization.
