I love all the people saying they aren't allowed to stop the SS from doing SS things.

Good little nazi, you know your place.

makes me think yo are the ttpe of perso who always says “Don’t protest like that!”.

That's because that's exactly what they just did.

"protests are good, but don't protest like that and block me when I want a frappichino"

"WE'RE CREATING OUR OWN SS AND PLANNING TO BOMB CIVILIANS"

But you know, disguised with different words.

Jesse Watters doesn’t deserve to live

bad and sinful

Lpt: you can use the Bible as an excuse to not push credit cards on customers in retail.

Deuteronomy 23:19 is quite clear when it says “You are not to charge interest to your countrymen: interest on money, food, or anything that may be loaned on interest"

Banks charge interest on credit cards.

If I push a credit card, that is the same as me pushing interest on my fellow countryman, and as I am a devout Christian (lmao no, I have donated money to TST to help pay for their clinics) I cannot in good conscience offer a credit card to anyone.

So far no retail manager has pushed back on it. Probably because they know I'm full of shit but if pressed I absolutely will make it a problem for them, and since I'm solidly in the Bible belt of the US (send help please), nobody wants to chance a court case.

If my employer tried to tell me I'm only getting paid when I'm actively using the equipment instead of the whole time I setting up and transferring materials, I'd have to get in line to set the place on fire

If the government declares a strike illegal, or tries to in any way compel the employees to return to work, they are explicitly telling the workers that they are nothing more than indentured servants, barely more than slaves. You exist to make these people money, now sit down and shut up before we throw you in prison for upsetting your betters.

"Sorry, you aren't your own group of people because you aren't stable and democratic enough. Oh, the reason you aren't stable enough? Not the issue, next question. Oh, the countries that aren't democratic that we recognize? Not the issue. Stop asking terrorist questions."

They're right about crime being way up in DC though.

Of course they're leaving out the part where it's the politicians being openly criminal.

Fuck it I'm buying it now.

Half life 2 was my first "I can't wait to get home and play" game, despite having played so many games from basically 97 onward.

Same shit, different tech.

The methods of madness change, but madness it remains.

1 it was too expensive to move out and honestly without the added income I provided my parents would have lost their house on multiple occasions

2 I got one the fall after I graduated

3 this one took awhile

4 lol no. Never. Children are the worst. I should know, I used to be one.

The older people I know who vote Democrat complain all the time about how expensive everything is these days and nobody can afford anything.

The bullshit "Nobody wants to work" narrative is absolutely pushed by conservatives.

It seems like every time it goes on sale, I am either between contracts or just not able to justify the unnecessary expense.

Now that I have more stable employment it hasn't gone on sale.

Honestly this by itself might be enough to make me pay full price.

I wonder how long it took, considering they wrote a script to convert the original transcription into PZ usable stuff.

10/10 mod, no pattern buffer for you.

Oh my god so much yes.

Make it chilly enough to wear an oversized hoodie and I will never leave.

While job searching this year, I had someone ask "are you okay with me using an AI assistant to record your voice to take notes during the call?"

To which I said no.

She then said "sorry but the position has been filled, we can go ahead and cancel this interview"

Mmmmm. Sweet sweet lead sugar.

I've gone a step up, and am inhaling chunks of metal.

(I operate a saw cutting aluminum and have decided to wear a face mask but should probably wear a respirator instead)

You can be crummy Alpha Quadrant

We'll be Quadrant 1.
