It's the summers that we don't get thunderstorms that I worry about, because those are the years we end up in extreme droughts and those are far more miserable. As for the heat, people find a reason to bitch about every season. It's too cold. It's too hot. Eew there's bugs. Damned pollen. Fuckin' leaves everywhere. Ice sucks. Bird shit all over. Santa Claus is coming to town, hide your kids and hide your wife.
I think it's more than half, and I think the other half just touches themselves in private areas too taboo to mention on a Christian oriented site like Lemmy. Let's just say, stay away from the devil' jewels kiddos.
I know it's the onion community, but I'm sure some people honestly believe this.
I had a relative somewhat recently make the statement that christians are the most oppressed group in the United States. She said that to me, a member of the LGBT community. Not that it's a competition, but I can think of several dozen groups of people in the USA who I would consider to be more oppressed, but what do I know?
First they told us not to eat the yellow snow, now they're telling us not to stick spring rolls up our poop chutes. It's like doctors don't want us to find any joy in our lives.
First they invented great barrier reef, now they make great barrier ointment. My God what horrors and highlights, the hubris of humankind.
I live in a rural area outside of a small town in the southern USA. The local electrician, basically the guy almost everybody calls if they need basic residential electrical work, earns almost twice the high end of what that job listing is paying. Granted, he's basically on call 7 days a week and I'm sure his job isn't always unicorn farts and leprechaun rainbows, but he's his own boss and works his own hours.
I completely understand.
I spent a semester of college working at Home Depot. It was a terrible experience and awful in so many different ways that I consider it my second worst job experience, only slightly behind the holier than thou "Christian business" that didn't pay its employees and actively committed fraud against employees, clients, and the government. 25+ years later, I still don't like to shop at Home Depot, it was so bad.
Those are pretty ladies and cute outfits! Hope they drink sufficient amounts of water and stay hydrated, else time may not be kind to their skin.
This is just so inaccurate. Sometimes it's 90's reboots and remakes with talking animals, too.
Well, hopefully those wealthy millennials will enjoy their distractions, homes, and retirement while the rest of us are dropped into the industrial grinders they use to reclaim the nutrients from our bodies.
So, the immigrants are criminals if they are not authorized to be in the country. But the people unlawfully employing them aren't criminals? I'm confused about what he's saying, but then again, I'm also 100% he's confused about what he's saying so you can't really blame me, right?
if you take a digital photo of the [ ... thing ... ] and post it on the internet as a terribly compressed jpg
That sums up the entirety of the content on a number of popular subs on the R-word site.
Confusing perspective? No. More like confusing JPEG artifacts.
I appreciate the warning, it lets me know I made the right choice to stop watching. Perhaps, when the series is concluded and I can be confident that there's at least some resolution to be had, I'll feel more confident and return to finish watching.
This is only tangentially related, but it touches on why I barely trust new shows anymore.
I kept hearing praise for a show called Severance (not on Netflix, though) and it sounded like it was something I'd like. Still I resisted the urge to watch it. It wasn't until several fucking years later, they released a second season.
So, after the second season came out, I figured I'd give it a go. The firs season left me irritated because the season finale resolved almost nothing, left everything open. I'm pissed just knowing how betrayed I'd have felt if I had watched the show when the first season came out and then just got left hanging for years.
Then I watched the first episode of the second season, which fortunately provided some answers, and decided, fuck everybody involved with this project. I'm not getting invested because the potential for them to do another non-answer cliffhanger and just leave fans/viewers without any type of closure is just too much.
But back on topic, yes, I agree, Netflix quite often takes too long to release follow-up seasons on a lot of shows I watched and liked. I know some of it is outside of their control, but it seems to happen quite a bit to the point where I do wonder how much of it is actually out of their control.
