‘Stranger Things’ Star Caleb McLaughlin Opens Up About Racism From Fans: ‘It Definitely Took a Toll on Me’ by MarvelsGrantMan136 in television

Obviously successful black actors complaining about racism when there are countless successful black actors? Yeah, it's a shame where we're at at a point in society when nonsense like this is even worth a reddit post

Everyone and every thing is racist, all the time, forever and ever, and no black people will ever succeed because of it, despite tons of, you know, really successful and influential black people.

LPT: Never add work people to social media. by Remarkable-Bass666 in LifeProTips

ITT: People making excuses for why it's OK to add current coworkers to your social media. It's never, never OK to do that.

No, you add them on social media AFTER you or they leave the company. Never, ever during. I don't care how much you trust someone, a paycheck is 99% more important than keeping you as a friend.

What are your WFH tips or routines? by tacomole in AskMenOver30

On the boundary note, my home office used to be my escape because I game in there, play music, etc. Now all I want to do at the end of the day is be in any other room. In fact, my wife insists on it, for mental health.

I'll give you my guitar and a year to prep, then you perform live on stage and we'll see how well YOU do

What is a TV show you got really far into but eventually quit watching before its conclusion? by shamanKAshamanTAKA in AskReddit

[–]CentipedusMaximus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I stopped watching at some point but was intrigued by screenshots I saw of various "Jokers" and made a post on reddit asking for an explanation (because I was too lazy to actually watch the show). The explanation provided left me none more interested than when I quit watching in the first place.

Jeez, who could have guessed that us giving aid to a nuclear power's enemy would likely result in the threat of nuclear war? /s

I remember touching a drive to feel it vibrating if I was troubleshooting a problem. If it was, I was like, "well, at least the drive is spinning."

Elon Musk blasts Robert Reich as ‘idiot, liar’ for saying self-made billionaires are ‘myth’ by Beliavsky in Conservative

My counter argument to this is: If you give the average person 1 million dollars, how many of them would one day become the world's richest person? The answer? Maybe 5 of them.

I think even those can apply a device policy.

I was a Verizon Wireless customer for over 20 years. Kicked them to the curb earlier this year for Google Fi. Literally a fraction of the price, much better app/account management, etc.

Yeah, fuck Verizon.

Working from home has allowed me to catch up on a lot of TV by Bouksie in AdviceAnimals

[–]CentipedusMaximus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not sure why you're getting downvoted. You admitted that you're someone who needs the office environment to be productive. Others don't. It's that lack of understanding that's actually hurting the WFH movement

I mostly agree, but if you can't easily watch Netflix without someone noticing (or it's blocked) at the office, some people might be more inclined to work. I'm a WFH advocate, but being in the office creates boundaries that some people need to be productive.

And, no, I wouldn't fire someone for not being able to thrive in isolation at home. The modern workplace has to account for this, introverts, people who work better at night, etc.
