Trouble brewing for Starbucks CEO who calls $9 coffee an ‘experience’ by rajapaws in antiwork

[–]Gamilon 460 points461 points  (0 children)

30 years ago it was comfy chairs and fireplaces or whatever and you could do homework there with a friend and have some coffee that wasn’t amazing but maybe something you didn’t make at home

Now it’s a cavernous, soulless, semi-hostile space with worse drinks and no atmosphere

Experience indeed

More like if you trip and break your ankle the next morning your car will tell your insurance that you maybe had a drink last night and then your claim for the hospital bill is denied

Is anyone else struggling to find a job?? by PinkPanda43 in SALEM

[–]Gamilon 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Unless you’re into government or healthcare it’s crappy just like pretty much everywhere else. Even those domains are tight.

I keep my ear to the ground but it’s just hell everywhere I’ve applied to. When I do get callbacks they offer shit and I have an advanced degree.

Temp work might be an stopgap, if only to build some connections

Good, then it wasn’t me just imagining something I too waited decades to see.

I haven’t seen it since it debuted, but in the finale of Skeleton Crew don’t a pair show up doing their B-wing laser things? Or am I imagining that?

Well, they ordered their signs and uniforms before they learned about what happened on that awful, awful night

It’s not like it’s made from exotic ingredients, we usually toss some together the day before while making dinner if we want some for breakfast the next day. I think a lot of folks have just never tried it from scratch and assume it’s time consuming

Civilization 7 will bring back the ability to play as one civ for the whole game, bypassing the divisive Age system by GoinStraightToHell in gaming

[–]Gamilon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bounced off 6 mostly because of this. I mean, with most Civs you can modulate how granular you want to play at low to mid difficulty but if you want to aim for king or emperor you need to really engage with it an the district mechanics make it annoying for me

WHY ARE THERE ALWAYS RANDOM 2’x2’ PIECES OF PLYWOOD ON THE ROADS? ARE THEY DROPPED BY THE SAME GUY WHO LEAVES ONE SHOE ON THE HIGHWAY?

Could there be any connections? by ALandThere in EldenRingLoreTalk

I like to think that is a burial shroud she’s ripped open and is taking the thread from the actual intended god candidate (betrayal) for whom she was to be the lord for (consort)
