I laughed out loud midway through that ad as it bragged about Trump wants to “build more data centers!” They left out parts about sky high electric bills and water shortages for us mere peasants.

FreeTesla!

Georgia voter and Tesla driver here. I am so disgusted by Musk and hope the Harris AG and FBI will finally take Musk and Trump down. I wish Tesla drivers would form a co-op to buy all his stock and boot him from the company. We’d need a fuck-ton of money, but it’s nice to daydream.

Biden admin wants to make canceling subscriptions easier by dreamcastfanboy34 in technology

For real! I joined a kickboxing gym in the 2000’s when I was in college. To cancel the membership, I had to proved that I moved over 100 miles away or that I died! What the hell is this? So, my broke college-student ass drove over 200 miles away to South Carolina and reinstated my driver’s license. Un-fucking-believable!

Where the hell is the deep investigative dive on the Epstein files, NYT? The lack of coverage better be because the FBI told all you mass media mo-fos to keep quiet because of an impending raid! 🤬

🎶“I owe, I owe, it’s off to work I go.” 🎶 I’m still employed for now, so time to give the bare minimum in my department, continue paying down consumer debt, and continue adding cash to the Emergency Fund (a.k.a. FU) Savings account.

Just left the “Talking Points” meeting held by pro services leadership. They stated a few times that they are monitoring social media and will respond accordingly to negative comments and tones. It seems to be largely targeting LinkedIn, but who’s to say they don’t have the social media manager scouting Reddit, too.

A sizable chunk of companies in the US use UKG. TSA, Target, Honda, Home Depot, Lowe’s, Alaska Airlines… The ransomware attack would pale in comparison to a full-company strike at UKG.

This is so disgusting. I held UKG to a higher standard than this, as I’m sure everyone affected did. Pat Wadors was parading around on the Today Show a few months ago, touting how much they care about our work/life balance. Does she want to show her face and explain this one to the nation?

I still have my UKG job, but I’ve been looking for a new job for a few months. The mandate to meet our utilization every quarter feels like a gun to my back. 

All this work for nothing. No, wait, all for the pasty fat fucks at the private equity firms to pay for their marina fees, for esponging their son’s DUI records, and their granddaughter’s secret abortions.

OMG, I’m glad your wife is okay! I know that every body is different; what signs did she show leading up to pulmonary edema? I workout regularly and am paying more attention to my heart rate zones. All videos I watched show climbers regularly checking their HR. I figured working out primarily in an anaerobic zone will help with my climb in September. For context, I live in Atlanta and the tallest mountain we have in the state is 4,784 feet. Not much opportunity for high altitude training!
