Love this group so much.

In time, you will find, these things take up space inside your mind…

where you, could be keeping honest thoughts of the sea!

To be fair, it was a much more effective electoral strategy than the follow-up:

we’re not going to do shit if you vote for us!

actually, doing nothing would be way better than what we were planning, not to mention way harder to buck our lobbyists that want us to do the terrible things, so we’re going to fuck things up pretty bad if you vote for us. but the other guy might fuck things up slightly more, and it’s your fault either way! but we won’t do anything to stop it, because that’s too hard/we don’t care, good luck fuck you!"

Just use the same “inflation” math the grocery stores and fast food restaurants use, and you’ll find you’re owed just shy of $10.8 million.

7 months out here looking for a dev spot, state bennies just ran out. My best recruiter ghosted me and when I tracked them down they broke down and admitted that they can’t get anyone hired right now, and everybody’s outsourcing for everything more than ever.

I get the feeling even landing a spot isn’t much of a guarantee for long at this point.

So today, I did my first day as a substitute teacher (sped para in particular), and hired on with some brown box folks doing delivery driving for the summer. Both different kinds of work than what I’ve gotten used to; also a lot more effort for half the pay. I’m going to be in a union though!
