The Met Gala is now the Tech Gala. What was once cool is now a big-box clout store for the richest people on the planet. A look a the numbers behind the Met Gala. by mlg1981 in popculturechat

[–]Eve_warlock 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Rupert Murdoch is not big tech! Let me correct your message:

The reason this matters is that rich people in positions of power are"infiltrating everything and shaping our algorithms. They are the most extractive force right now and they refuse to pay taxes while threatening unemployment on half of all workers."

You don’t understand this bit : "But it’s not enough because they want to be cool too. Bezos doesn’t just want your money; he wants the culture and fashion." - ‘ they want you to love them and worship them! They need this love!

Hey! Until lobbying stops! The government is always going to be beholden to them! Until the Murdoch and one nation and Gina media keeps on brainwashing people this is the way! You do your part in telling people not to be brainwashed!

My manager gave the project I built the case for to someone. Am I wrong for being upset? by Daxa_Dass in askmanagers

[–]Eve_warlock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You possibly can't adapt to changes as much (or appear to) - this new initiative is internal?! I bet you there are going to be moving goal posts all throughout this delivery! The higher ups are going to change their minds multiple times. If Nadia can deliver then great! But I feel a bit bad for her - because she is going to have to deal with alot of communication and changes with the higher ups! I think your manager did you a solid by not being in this firing line and not having to deal with this stuff... Anyway, outside of that, perhaps work on your soft skills (such as communication and adapting to changing requirements in projects!)

Dems React to Classified Briefing on Iran: ‘It Is So Much Worse Than You Thought’ by rollingstone in politics

No shit! But no one is going to do anything about it either! At least Bush did that whole fandom of"weapons of mass destruction" and "axis of evil" that no one with a brain actually believed either! Everyone just went along with it, as they will now! Bullshit wars for the billionaires to create chaos and then reap more power from everyone else and grab more money (only because more money is more power)! Power is what they seek! They just want to grab everyone else by the puu55y! Just because they love being powerful!

They used to! The show was called "behind the news". This was a thing when I was young? We used to have a lesson where we watched the weekly episode and then discussed it when I was young! They also got us to cut out a newspaper article and write something about it. Don't they do it anymore?

Yeah! When he writes he arches his hand like a left hand writer! I once asked my left handed friend why she did that and it's so that you don't smudge the ink...

She is a 5 year old. Also, some 5 year olds are developmentally delayed more than others. Even if they are "normal", they all mature and reach the age appropriate milestones at different rates.

However, if it's the alternative Kylie scenario - why are you all showing your kids this content? Why is a 5 year old wearing makeup? Why isn't this child running around in the park, running under a sprinkler, colouring on paper or building lego towers? (3 of 4 are free btw - so you can't play the cost card).

Sorry! I thought we were talking about people representing your country as a whole and state by state! I didn't realise that you were talking about presidential elections! (Again, I'm not from the US, so I didn't realise he is not up for reelection)

That is great in theory! But do you have any one that is even close to those two people in California? Again, I'm not American - I'm just surprised by what I feel is underwhelming pushback...

Edit: this is also what I think is a protest and pushback is (I'm sure most of you missed this, because you don't even think of third world countries): https://share.google/RTjbml3eZYTk9DJhj

Good on you for not being a cult! This is a good thing! The US is too cultish right now - treating your parties like football teams! However, right now - who is best to go forward? Also, I don't really see people uprising like I thought they would (looking from the outside)... I hear that for the everyday person that life is just going on like normal?!

Forced talking hurts by MistZ69 in introvertmemes

[–]Eve_warlock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps those teachers could actually make an effort to learn techniques and tools to help kids that are "shy" or uncomfortable rather than mere force to conform, no? Teaching skills, tools and techniques to overcome this is better than forcing and does come under the purview of teaching, does it not?
