One of my coworkers came in sick. We are so unbelievably busy and have been in a state of crunch for the last month, and I have leave scheduled for Dragon Age and my partner's birthday in a week.
I will be so sad if I catch the horrible hacking cough she's got, I booked an expensive restaurant and everything
Been trying to track down info about this because it really rather threw me - in the Northcote area yesterday, there was a whole bunch of laminated signs on posts up and down All Nations. I glanced at one and it looked like antivaxx propaganda, but no one else online has mentioned it. Anyone know what that was?
A word to the wise, as you say you don't normally buy games - do double check whether your Mac is new enough for the game. I don't know exactly how specs work on mac, but I would hazard a guess that anything older than, say, 2019, won't be able to play it.
Ffs, there's no conspiracy here mate, the game is meeting expectations. The problem is there are a lot of trolls trying to tear it down because trans people are in it, not that the writers are calling out bigots.
Mernda line is down, for those fellow poor bastards who discovered this when they got to the station. Hope your manglement is understanding, mine isn't
You ever feel like you made a wrong turn somewhere, but now you've started on a career pathway, have a stupid fuck off hecs debt, can't afford therapy, and feel like it's too late to go back? That you're struggling with your job, don't have any real reference point as to whether it's normal, and just kinda wish you had another option?
Put a cat to sleep yesterday. Feel like I'm being a massive fuckoff inconvenience for booking in some annual for the next couple days, yet I know it'll be worse if I go in.
Not sure what the point of this comment was, but fuck it, sometimes you've gotta vent.
I agree, force of habit for me to dumb it down a bit because a fucktonne of people get really angry when I suggest that this is a deeply racist country, institutionally speaking. Our very laws were written to keep the Indigenous Australians down, the racism is by design.
I hate when media puts terms like racist in quotes like this. By definition, it is racist. But quoting it implies it's an invalid claim.
The treatment of Indigenous Australians in this country is disgusting, and deeply, deeply racist, even if "just" systemically.
EDIT to note the use of "just" was sarcasm, because systemic racism is a real and fucked problem, and it exists at the very core of Australian society, and if you're white and haven't actively studied it, you won't know it exists
