CarbonConscious [he/him]

Had a partner that briefly did seasonal stuff for a brown flavored competitor of that company.

They fell on some ice and got a medium-level ouchie, and the deal they got for workers comp was basically about 5k, with part of the agreement being they could never work for that company ever again. So depending on if you feel capable of finding another employer after the fact, and if that kind of amount would be worth going through it, they might be willing to do a settlement.

(Said partner then went on to use nearly the whole settlement to buy themselves a new gaming rig and fancy chair while I was otherwise sole-providing for us and we were drowning in debt, but that’s a story for another thread.)

I mean I like that something like this is being considered at least. It’s always been a bafflement to me that the liberal establishment hasn’t tried to trot out more of these actually ameliorative programs for food or housing, let alone health care.

It’s always disheartening to hear the numbers about how much it would cost to just outright end homelessness, child starvation, etc. Because usually the numbers are less than that year’s military budget increase. Like, we can’t even pretend to try?

That said, $3 a meal as an answer to poverty starvation does give very vibes.

As a huntsman-jarate main, I can assure you this tactic is quite effective.

I yearn for the monochrome. I need this third entry to be the slowest, dryest sand-planet movie they’ve ever made. Please Papa Timmy, don’t rush it.

I’m admittedly a removed for dorky gadgets, and I’ve been trying to find a replacement for this 10 dollar basic leather wallet ever since I got it in high school decades ago, so the idea of something like this rings my bell every time I see it.

But any time I’ve put a single second of thought into what actually using this type of thing on a daily basis would be like, I immediately ick. Just completely ludicrous design.

Author was just on Rev Left recently discussing this piece. Great ep!

It is a bit moreish.

Just a matter of forward momentum, timing, and taking the leap enough times in a row.

Just stood up a Bazzite machine which is an atomic fedora distro, and I gotta say it’s pretty sweet. Had some issues with permissions sandboxing for things like Syncthing, but that was due to some stupidity on my part, otherwise it’s been really smooth and every single game I’ve tried to run so far has been flawless and runs great (aside from online multi stuff, ofc).

“Oh here he comes now, he’s whispering something in my ear. Oh he’s telling me that the false flag operation was successful and we need to go to acting very sad that it happened. Marco can we do that? Can we go to acting sad?”

Tbf I had to look it up for this dumb joke :P
