I love being out of the loop.

That’s some bullshit people love to parrot. Its meaningless.

The same group that wants small government also has no problem asking you to donate at church and also to Jimmy’s gofundme.

Then that contracted AI gets used for customer service at a public facing federal agency.

Microsoft laid off 9,000 people recently. Its also not their first time. Fuck microsoft.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Everything goes to shit.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Switch to Proton Switch to Proton Switch to Proton Switch to Proton Switch to Proton Switch to Proton

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Its always the next thing, and the next thing and the next thing. What’s the new proton everyone will annoy the fuck out of us with?

This is why I stopped giving a shit. Actually. I do give a shit. I will let them surveil all of my shits, and garbage, and vomit.

I’ve reached a point where I refuse any longer to hold any reverence or respect for current military. Just like cops. The military cock worship of parades, holidays, and discounts everywhere needs to go away.

How about discounts for teachers, or road workers, or social workers.

Cool. Now do it to owners of giant useless trucks.

A PR for every tiny commit. You got it.

Its not a POV. Its a third-person view.

MAHA?

Wait for something fucking idiotic like:

“U.S. government to implement 5,000% tax on new solar technology…”

Strawberry is super confusing with playlists. Out of caution, I have learned to save Playlists multiple times to a file and try to close them all before opening/playing new stuff.

Too many times I’ve experienced selecting something new to play not only replace the currently playing, but replaces the Playlist, and it seems to overwrite it immediately.

That’s what they wanted. Small government. Bootstrap. All that. Feds have been widely lambasted, shit on, gutted for resources, and now those left operate in a constant state of fear and worry just trying to do a decent job for this so-called society.

Get fucked.

Edit: see the comment below pointing out precisely what I’m getting at. This county asked for it and its unsurprising.

It never was by the people or for the people.

They won’t. Establishment Dems want this as well. Repubs are doing it for them, and then any elected Dem then would likely be more of the watered down same, and they’ll quietly allow the status quo to continue.

Maybe they’ll stop the gutting. Maybe they’ll slim down some high profile things like ICE a bit. But largely they won’t ramp up hiring to return to any previous scale.

Also FYI, the last time the US Federal government lost employees on this scale was under Clinton in the 90s working bipartisan with a Repub congress.

You don’t levee children…

Why didn’t they turn down the Sun first?

Reminds me of everyone during the pandemic house frenzy telling us to sell our house, and talking about how seriously they were considering selling theirs, cause prices are up so much.

I kept asking… and then what? You have to live somewhere… how much will that cost?

Also look into informational interviewing and maybe see if someone can connect you with a current job-holder. People are surprisingly nice and it may be feasible to get their time to get an understanding of their field and daily work life.

Absolutely follow the data and put in the effort to find out.
