  • Don’t worry, someone will let you know with a deeply snarky comment.

  • Maybe they should focus all of their efforts on the 1% now.

  • Ok, thank you, good night, now I’m off watching owl and birdwatching videos as brain bleach before I fall asleep.

  • I kind of prefer my Switch 2 fantasy compared to visualizing Marquis de Sade writings…

  • While most of us would applaud that as "finally some consequences for that murderous despot!" it's probably more of a "nah, not interested, just use any old excuse so that I can stay at home and play some sweet sweet video games!".

  • Well, it's how it's spelled in pretty much all of the English-speaking world. Barring the USA and Canada.

    Edit: my favourite ”whelp” is apparently not what I thought.

  • It seems that every article from Jacobin is skewed ever so slightly, not enough to make most think there’s something wrong, but it seems to skew anti-progressive by tone and wording, while being assertive in part to some center (or right-leaning by European standards), and aggressive in language towards selective parts of the far-right while mellowing down the tone against conservatives in general.

    It’s like eating candy and discovering that the sugar coating is actually aluminium.

  • We discovered I had some kidney cysts. Which isn’t unusual, fairly normal above a certain age apparently.

    One had previously burst (during a time when I thought it was overexertion during ten days hiking a trail) and had left scarring. As I had had no complications (other than three days of constantly feeling like someone kept stabbing my back), it was considered normal and had resolved without any other complications than some scarring.

    The other popped recently, and it felt like someone had stabbed me in my sleep, it jolted me awake, hurt like hell and then I had bloody urine with clots. Was scary, but once I went through ultrasound and cat-scans it was deemed as not all that unusual and not to worry. I am now on antibiotics and oxy, with a follow up visit later this week once my blood results come back.

  • Well, my popping kidney cysts certainly didn't feel normal. But my doctor told me it wasn't unusual, and just to deal with it with some meds.

  • It’s not months of free labour. He is still contractually obligated to do his job until the end of his notice period. I have the same rules in place. I have to give my employer three months notice if I decide to leave, but they have to give me six months notice if they decide to let me go. The duration can be negotiated. During those months, I will do my very best to finish my projects or prepare them to be passed on to colleagues. I am still being paid, but my employer can also give me the option to just take the time off, paid, and not come into work any more.

    Unions, people, protect your unions and they might just protect you.

  • This looks mouthwatering delicious.

  • Please please tell me that there are no carpet bugs in that carpet? Or that the carpet is washed several times a year?

  • Hey Google, what is dishonourable discharge?

  • I guess rotten eggs and tomatoes will soon be premium products in blue cities.
