Is the answer "we live in a broken world and nothing matters"?

Is… is this a real resume? Did an adult make this on purpose?

They won't know until they go there to find out

It is. europa.eu is one of the EU's domains, the ec subdomain for that is the EU Commission's, and the eci subdomain under that is for the European Citizens' Initiative (looks like just the petitions themselves are under that domain and the public index is under https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu for whatever reason)

The same happened with the Finnish equivalent of the AfD, the Finns Party. Under 25's are now more conservative than Millennials or iirc even Gen X which is pretty fucking wild

Random musing related to US gun control, but at least from this particular rando Finn's perspective the American mentality regarding guns is sometimes just really fucking puzzling. I mean yes I get the historical whoop-te-doo that led to things being how they are now and what the rationale is behind US gun culture & laws and so on, but even given the context it doesn't make sense to me. It also seems like lots of Americans agree that things are… well, not optimal right now and would want tighter controls, but by all appearances gun control is such a political minefield that it seems to be hard to get things fixed, and I've understood that eg. Republicans have a real tendency of being really pro control when it comes to restricting the ability of "unwanted" people to own guns. And then there's how the culture around guns plays into all this, of course.

Well duh, they're liberal guns

And you're surprised about this?

At no point was I surprised by any of this

Republicans don't seem to believe that it was "one of them" who did it. They're blaming literally everybody else

Ah duh, figures

Looks like something from South Park, the animated series loved by painfully unfunny people everywhere.

Oh politicians can be and are held accountable all the time. It's conservative politicians who seem to get off scot-free

Yeah that definitely sounds exhausting. I've had a few chances to work with some absolutely exceptional people who I could trust would do their job to the best of their ability, and then some… well, less than exceptional people who really needed constant hand-holding up to the point of me having to read error messages for them ("what does the error message say? Oh you didn't read it? Well, do the thing again so you get a new one. Ok so it says that the foo failed to flerb: have you tried checking the foo? No? Well, maybe try that and see where it gets you"), and I definitely know which one I preferred.

No idea honestly, I just found this lying around on the internet

(also, I fucking hate it when people censor the naughty evil words just by covering one letter. Everybody knows what that word is you numpties, either cover the whole thing or don't do it)

Zardoz! It's a real trip and a half, the most 70's movie you'll ever see

Ha, I figured somebody has to recognize that. A super campy and really fuckin weird movie, and not what I'd call good exactly, but I like it. Remove all the weird shit and the core is a pretty classic tale of how rich people exploit the poor.

So is Orbán, and what is probably a majority of conservatives at least if they're being honest (which doesn't happen too often)

I will give your suggestion 100% of the careful attention and obedience that it deserves.

I'll be appropriating this phrase. This requires no further action on your part. Thank your for your cooperation.
