Thanks, I hate it.
Some IT guy, IDK.

My guess is hand/got holds for climbing up the cliff face. Basically an outdoor ladder.
I might be wrong
I’ve lived long enough to know that I need to have a system of: a place for everything and everything in its place.
… Now if I could only implement that, that’d be great…
There’s always the exceptions, but they’re rare, and getting more rare.
The vast majority of works are owned by a few major corporations, even smaller, more indie games often get published through a major studio, which then retains a good amount of the profit. Almost all media, TV and movies, is owned by one of a handful of companies. Music is largely the same.
It goes the same way for so many other things too. It’s not just games and media.
There are always going to be exceptions but on the whole, it’s vastly more likely/common that the people profiting from something is a large, faceless organization, which only answers to their shareholders.
The only damage that exists from piracy is to the copyright holders profits…
Since the copyright holder is usually a corporation that is owned by shareholders, the majority of which are richer than all of us combined, ask me if I give a shit and I will show you my field of shits to give, and you will see that it is barren.
Eat the rich. Or Luigi them… I don’t care.
Jokes on you. They just dilute the royalty payment among all the artists you’ve streamed, so Spotify’s cut isn’t really bring affected.
Fun right?
None of us did.
I didn’t get a say in whether or not to be born. I’m just here now and I have to deal with all of this shit.
29 days “lost” at sea, is therapy for all of the external bullshit we deal with every fucking day.
By “we” I mean people in society, not just men. Everyone struggles with making their way in “this world” we built for ourselves. We made it to be this horrible.
I felt this comment.
Thanks, I hate it.
Canada. It’s generally easy and free (no direct cost to me). I try to avoid having to go to my doctor whenever possible and I live with a nurse (and my doc knows that). Usually when I send him a message, either by email or by calling, he’ll have a follow up question or two (sometimes none) then decide a course of action and move right to implementation. Sometimes that’s sending a script to my local pharmacy, sometimes that’s a referral to a specialist. Who knows? I haven’t seen the guy in years. But if he made the request for me to go in, I would without hesitation.
I know my experience isn’t the same as others, since my doctor and my spouse have actually worked together; but still. It’s all free and there’s usually minimal waiting.
The only significant delays I’ve heard of in Canadian healthcare relate to major procedures when the issue is non-critical. Like getting an MRI as a precaution, to make sure things aren’t messed up or something (IDK what MRIs are used to diagnose, I am not a doctor).
Everything is triaged, so if you’re not actively dying from a thing, and you need a big piece of equipment to scan you to figure something out, you’re going to be waiting a while.
I’ve been there, done that. Welcome to the club my friend.
The only reason I got through my last layoff without stooping into a deep depression is that I’ve done this dance so many fucking times that I’m tired of it all.
Luckily I had a new job about a month later, which I 100% acknowledge is luck.
I still miss my previous job, it was much better than the one I have now. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not angry at being employed, I’m just sad that I didn’t get to remain employed with the last workplace.
I get it, 100%. Nothing you said is really all that abnormal. You clearly liked the job, and there’s no good way to express that loss. It’s just something you have to go through all the stages of. Eventually the whole ordeal will seem further and further away and you’ll settle into a routine and get your life back to where it should be. You lost something and it’s okay to be sad about that.
What isn’t good is if you start getting any worse than where you are at now. If you start sliding deeper into it, or you feel like you’re drowning, please seek help. The people who care about you don’t want to lose you.
My advice for the future is: never invest more than you’re willing to lose, whether you’re taking about money or emotional investment, the reality is that you can lose it all in a snap. Make sure you know what you’re risking and ensure you can sacrifice what you’ve invested if there’s a sudden change from management. Take care of yourself first, then worry about everything else.
You see, that’s a can. That can can’t be mistaken for anything other than what it is, a can.
Unlike a can of coca cola, which could be “soda”, or “pop”, or “coke”, or any number of other things.
Op is dumb.
I just wanted her sidekick… As a young boy that seemed to be more my speed.
Xena was a bit much for me when I was watching Xena on TV… At like… 5? 10? IDK. What year is it?
I’ve gotten into the habit of eating lunch while I’m working specifically so I can take a short mid day nap during my scheduled “lunch” at work.
Working from home has some nice perks.
As I get older, the value of nap time has increased.
When I was a child I was very anti-nap. In my youth I was very indifferent to napping. In my mid-adult years, napping is more important than most things.
I like the cut of your jib.
Oh. Gmod brain rot.
There’s an interesting underlying message that I’m not sure is intentional, but yeah. Bunch of skibidi toilet “fun times” against the monitoring state engaged in war.
To me that says the only place where you’re unmonitored in on the shitter, which is accurate given how much of a walled Garden we, the “adults” put together for kids doing remote learning by locked down Chromebooks during COVID. Seems like the youth putting these together were expressing their frustration with basically having no freedom to express themselves or even explore and have fun during the lockdown because of all the restrictions in place; not just the restrictions related to COVID, but all of the restrictions that parents and teachers had the opportunity to enforce very strictly partly due to COVID lockdowns.
It’s a fascinating artistic statement from a pre-AI “art” era of only a few years ago.
10/10. Would skibidi again.
I’M A CHARGIN’ MAH LAZAR!
IMO, there’s no reason that vine needed to be shut down. There’s so many ways to monetize that kind of platform, and they basically said “we can’t figure it out” and closed up shop.
I hope the little guy got all fixed up.
