I have played many games similar to this one, and I hate to admit this, but I think I’m too stupid for CK3. I just don’t know enough about English royalty/gentry shit to keep up.

As someone that grew up in the 90s watching NASCAR Dale was also hella legit. He hated the Confederate flag and was quoted as saying, “racism is a moral commitment to ignorance.” I miss when rednecks understood the fight and also hated cops. Now they suck and give the rest of us a bad name.

If anyone in your family starting at like your second cousin and closer have already done DNA testing then the cats outta the bag on worrying about your privacy.

But still accurate. That fucker tries to kill me every few weeks for some reason.

Imagine a porn site telling you to seek help because you’re a filthy pervert. Thats gotta push some to get some help I’d think.

Imo Bad Company is still the best that the Battlefield franchise has put out. But I didn’t play any before it so maybe it’s just nostalgia.

Heard a comedian crack a joke about that. Went something like, “well all the cool Boomers died of drugs or AIDS so now we’re stuck with the hall monitors of the generation.”

Hits a little to hard sometimes lol

So so incredibly true. I provide Admin support for folks that want to publish apps with Apple and let me tell you, it’s the wild fuckin west out there and I’m not even talking about the coding part which I’m sure is a hellscape if my side of things is anything to go by.

Mom and pop got an app idea for passive income so they just hire a company to publish it for then, usually from India, with devs who can’t put two and two together because they work for assholes that want apps pumped out asap. They don’t want critical thinkers, they don’t want knowledgeable employees, what they want are tons of employees they can take advantage of as cheaply as possible that can do a good enough job to stay afloat and make them money. These guys know basic code and nothing else nor do they seem to want to know how to actually manage a development team, they seem like they are under a lot of pressure. I personally don’t actually code or know how to code outside of basic HTML Myspace bullshit but I do know how to get shit published and I know how to get the apps ready for publishing. I know these things because our guides are massive and massively detailed with screenshots to help you out and yet I’m busier than ever. 90% of my job outside of the admin and fraud prevention work I have to do is sitting on the phone reading instructions word for word or copying and pasting it from the guides for people who should be able to understand the content, but they don’t.

Imo as someone that’s been doing this for 5 years now, it’s a bubble and she’s ready to burst. It’ll be another .com crash that we’ll all pretend we didn’t see coming.

Same here! It was all just words with no meaning for me but I’m glad those crazy kids are having fun. You do you Furry Fandom… Furdom… Furrydom??? Idk someone’s going to have to enlighten me on this one.

It’s quieter which I love and hate. I don’t feel addicted to engaging here which is awesome for my mental health but it can also make it difficult to find instances. I’m still struggling there.

However, when I do comment I find the people to be much more open to discussion. There are actual engaging conversations to be had which has been a great change. It feels less like shouting into the vast nothingness of the internet here, more intimate like a club of people with similar interests. I don’t feel scared I’m going to get dogged on, flammed, harassed, othered, or ostracized. There have been times I’ve shared my Native background when it was important to the convo and everyone’s be so fucking cool just treating me like a human being or listening to what I have to contribute from my perspective. Doing that on Reddit was a mixed bag where I would have to worry about the possibility of a sleu of people PMing me or replying with just awful hateful small pp energy racist shit.

Honestly, the bar was in the deepest pits of hell so if Lemmy couldn’t shuffle over it I would have lost all hope for humanity lol

The great part about history is sometimes there’s no need to find a quote when there’s tons of evidence! Here’s a few:

France, George Besse killed in 85’ due to his “revolutionary” turnaround of a company that included mass layoffs.

United States Labor Wars which spanned a century of bloodshed and violence. The Labor Wars included the Battle of Blair Mountain where the largest private army in US history was formed and approximately one million rounds were fired.

There’s a reason your history classes were boring, there’s a reason they opt for American propaganda instead of facts, and there is a reason companies are shitting themselves over union talks. Both the best and worst part about being a history buff is knowing the facts they don’t want you to hear. Be a History Buff with me Limmings! We never meet up, there are no dues, you have no deadlines or tests, and you get to earn dark secrets you can use to torture your friends and family with. It’s great!

"I’m not allowed to comment on that time. I signed an NDA with company I was interning for.

Imo blurring genderlines and rendering them useless as a meaningful measure of power is precisely why so many in power now don’t want the gender/trans movement to gain any traction. If people were to realize that gender truly was nothing more than your outward appearance and did not in any way impact someone’s ability to gain power, knowledge, or success then we could end up with a WOMAN in powerful positions or even worse the women could actually start to gain allies with the power to change things when former white cishet male presenting people who still speak with their white cishet friends about all the I justices women face start to get outraged on their friends behalf.

I work at Apple in the Apple Care department, but not for the Apple Care yalls moms call for help. This has been happening for literally years and I’ve spoken about it before but no one really took it seriously but now here we are. We were told that we be in a hiring freeze for the foreseeable future and that hiring and promotions would only happen onsite. If we wanted to be promoted we needed to move to Austin or San Fran, the two most expensive cities in the country with no guarantee of a promotion, on our own dime, knowing we won’t make a living wage there. Keep in mind that this meeting was being given to a massive department who’s main workforce is and has always been WFH.

I’m neridivergent and have issues with misophonia. Your description of listening to people eat was spot on. Hearing people chew food or smack gum makes me want to smack the gum the fuck up out of their mouth. I like these people but the reaction that misophonia causes in me feels barely containable. I’ve had to walk away from people to collect myself or have someone else help customers because of the physical and psychological reaction it causes. It feels violent and torturous. I also have this same reaction to kids and babies being loud or crying. Yes, your crotch goblin is cute. Yes, I recognize that they are kids and these things aren’t controllable. But that doesn’t stop me from having serious sound stimulation overloads that bring me to the brink of sanity, that’s not controllable either no matter how much I wish it was. .

OP, best way to deal with it if it is a misophonia issue is to carry around ear plugs or do what I do and get some nice noise cancelling earbuds. If you’re in a situation that you cant use these things, like a family gathering of people who won’t understand what you’re going through, take frequent breaks. Go outside, go take a breather on the bathroom, talk with someone you trust and see if they will step aside with you for a bit because I’m 100% sure there are others there that don’t want to hear the kids being loud.

I’d love nothing more than to have solar panels and a home battery to help save the planet but I can’t even afford my rent. How the fuck àm I supposed to buy a home and also I stall solar. Most Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. I don’t think that it’s self centered thinking that’s the problem, personally.

The folks around me just used the factory settings on most of theirs. Mines SlytherLAN and GryffWANdor with the guest network set as Hufflepuff-puff-pass.

I personally don’t know any women who have ever gone to someone’s house to purchase something. You meet in a well lit public place during the day, just like any sane person. Women do face threats to their health and safety when going out with strange men. It seems you’re under the impression that murder is what we are trying to avoid when it’s much much more common that women are raped and/or drugged on dates. Although avoiding murder is also a top priority but that’s a given for literally everyone on the planet.
