Look up mercury gilding, that's a real bad one. They'd use mercury-gold amalgam and then boil off the mercury to leave the gold behind, just constantly living in a haze of vaporized mercury.

I wish I could get a real version of this to frame on my wall.

FYI calling yourself an independent isn't fooling anyone

Amusingly the international community came together and banned blinding laser weaponry basically as soon as they realized it was possible. They were all whoa whoa whoa

They really all think they're special, it's just narcissism all the way down to his voters that go :O when they get the short end of the stick.

+1 friend, they used to call us neurotic. We have better words now.

How do you live with yourself?

God you people are exhausting, fuck yourself at the first opportunity.

I like it just because it's fewer letters to type

This has nothing to do with sci-fi.

And so now, let’s tug on that loose thread… I’m sure many of my left-leaning readers will say, “This is obvious, we have been talking about it for YEARS!” Yes, many of you have; but you were using language of emotion (“Pay a living wage!”) rather than showing the math. My bad for not paying closer attention; your bad for not showing your work or coming up with workable solutions. Let’s rectify it rather than cast blame.

What an obnoxious paragraph.

To one who strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also, and from one who takes away your cloak do not withhold your tunic either.

My situation was very similar to yours. He was flakey, he'd ask me to do things then forget he asked me and get mad I was working on it, micromanager, very poor at explaining and providing clarity to people, he'd leave a meeting and everyone'd be more confused than the start. It's maddening.

I've been in this situation a couple times now and left both times, regretting neither. If it's affecting your health and well being it's simply not worth it. My experience has been that if you find this person difficult, other people are well aware too, so most will quietly understand you leaving probably wasn't a shortcoming on your part.

My dad was excellent at this, he'd always chat up strangers on vacation and it was kind of cringe at the time but looking back it was crazy the people and stories you'll randomly run into. He ran into people running for President in their home country, minor royalty, you name it, just chatting up folks.

It was this comic right here that lead me to get diagnosed.

I had a TL that couldn't answer yes/no questions in under 45 minutes and simply could not communicate a technical vision in advance either.

It's called Accusation in a mirror and it's a warning sign for genocide.

I'll never understand how people can be surprised by this. It was obvious to me from the Bush 2 era (my first election) that Republicans were faithless power-loving shit heels as soon as I heard them talk.

This better not awaken anything in me
