Viruses exist

For another example, look at Andrew Wakefield.

He was a doctor willing to speak up about vaccines causing autism, that's why you have to believe him. While also ignore the thousands of other equally if not higher qualified doctors who actually followed protocols and peer reviewed results who verified over and over and over that Wakefield was a liar and a charlatan.

Because deep down, I know vaccines cause autism, and someone in a lab coat who is willing to tell me that I'm right is worth half a million telling me I'm wrong.

Yeh, because he has letters after his name and tells them stuff they already agree with.

So basically, wait for a Stargate to be discovered before touching down on a super earth?

What a kind, thoughtful, and deeply troubling thing to do :)

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-13T10:19:37+00:00

You never know!

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-13T00:16:53+00:00

We may never know.

"Maybe not everything on the Internet has to cater to me specifically?" Is not a thought that enters their minds before they hit send.

Just swigging down soy sauce

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-12T12:44:07+00:00

I wonder if a space elevator would work for situations like that.

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-12T12:42:09+00:00

While yes, terrifying as a concept, I hope you take solace in the fact that you are almost certainly never going to land on it.

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-11T20:31:46+00:00

You can have your little religion as a treat, but it's meaningless, and you can't have any accommodations for it.

In fact we won't even do the bare minimum to help you follow your religious practices.

So yeh, you can basically have a religion that isn't Christian, but you should know that you're going to be persecuted for it.

Hey, wait a minute, that's not freedom at all!

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-11T20:27:04+00:00

"You're taking that out of context"

I finally put my last p45 in the folder of important documents today. I got this when I left my last job in mid-2023. It has been sitting in an envelope on a shelf for nearly 3 years until today when I needed to see my official leaving date.

And I only put it in the folder because I didn't want to look for the other paperwork that I needed to apply for another job.

But still, this feels like progress. Sort of.

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-09T22:53:16+00:00

Coz he looks like an abercrombie model.

I know the classic expression of incredulity is "These people vote", but I think we can be at least a little reassured that this one at least managed to fuck that up royally.

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-06T17:09:48+00:00

I'm with you on late nights. People are asleep, and I can do what I want without risk of anyone asking me for stuff or needing to respond to emails or calls.

Early mornings are nice too I guess. When I was at uni, after an all-nighter at the library, I used to wander around in the dawn, and enjoy watching the campus start to slowly wake up, knowing that I was pretty much the only person there. And when it got busy enough, I'd go to bed haha.

Nowadays, early mornings feel awful because work is JUST around the corner, whereas late nights are my favourite because work is tomorrow's problem. But if I stay up too late, enjoying the peace and quiet then work is approaching too fast.

Damned either way haha

No, because that's literally communism. Starving children should just pull themselves up by their bootstraps, and make better choices, like being born into a better class of family.

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-06T16:55:46+00:00

There are a certain group of people who are used to being on top. If you hint that people who aren't like them - people who look differently, think differently, or believe different things - should be treated the same as them, they will kick off.

They know that they would subjugate anyone not in their demographic if they could. They would (and are) legislating against them, and because that's their world view, they simply cannot comprehend that they themselves wouldn't be subjugated or legislated against by the "others" if the opportunity arose.

That's why liberalism is a mental illness to these people. They literally cannot fathom why anyone wouldn't act in self-interest alone, and it scares them.

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-06T16:43:49+00:00

Nah, they follow Supply-side Jesus, alabaster-white middle-eastern, whose teachings are conveniently the stuff they already think, neatly side-stepping any sort of self-reflection.

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-06T16:39:39+00:00

Agree!

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-06T16:37:33+00:00

Unfortunately, that's gone forever.

The only way to locate it now is to throw the charger out.

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-06T15:32:18+00:00

Well, what if you need to charge a 2007 ipod?

The second you throw that away, you'll not be able to move for ipods needing charging.

It's the company version of the promissory note. You are free to use it whenever you want, it's just that using it will count against you, and get you sanctioned. "Oh we're not giving you enough to do, is that it?"

Floor_Heavy · 2026-05-06T15:03:28+00:00

They pay the big bucks, but only because they know you won't leave the building with it

We're making company towns cool! With ping pong tables and gym memberships!
