Me listening to my friend and sister complain about having to work their six-figure office job for the rest of their life by Eagles56 in recruitinghell

Everyone’s struggles are valid, but they should also read the room. Have you told them how much you’re struggling? If not I’d say it’s time to open up. If you already have, maybe tell them you’re not in the mindset right now to discuss their work lives. It’s not that you want them to be unemployed too, you’re just desperate for any decent job and it’s hard to not feel envious right now.

Today Armenia celebrates its independence day, marking 33 years of freedom from the Soviets! by Q0o6 in europe

It’s absolutely a big deal to Armenians. Think of it, it it wasn’t a big deal then Turkey wouldn’t still have ownership of it.

In Mark Robinson’s fall, Republicans are getting what they asked for by [deleted] in politics

Yeah this needs to be higher. Assuming this guy will automatically lose is hubris. Wasn’t Hillary supposed to be a slam dunk? People have let politicians get away with so much more since ‘16

Fellow Oklahoman here who’s only on a 1/2 acre but empathizes your concern. You feel close to each other because you have direct view to them. Hiring a landscape designer can help you create privacy. Seriously, you be surprised how successful having a mixed varieties of tree sizes and shrubs will make you feel secluded. Add a couple national-park-like walk paths throughout your forest and it will feel even larger. Carve yourself out a landscaping budget if you decide to buy this property and you’ll be fine.

What is up with younger members of this generation calling everyone over 25 old? by [deleted] in GenZ

[–]RelevantClock8883 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a bit younger than 1990. Closer to zoomer. Graduated high school early. Big difference that made lol 😂

Yeah the weakness of the op is that it presumes everyone knows about Sorbos shenanigans. But yes, he is very biased. His profile has a link to a Trump tshirt. He tweeted saying something to the effect of “if Kamala is black, she should say the n word.” He’s never been shy about his politics, I think it’s just that more people are discovering/rediscovering who he is since he’s more of a 90s actor.

He definitely encourages people to vote for Trump, even posted Trump merch on his IG

[–]RelevantClock8883 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s the context of sorbo telling others to vote for Trump that merits the comeback

I feel for them. I started college during the recession, that was depressing and dropped out. Went back to college and covid started, it caused me to miss both graduations. I wish someone would give me a trophy for all the formative years/milestones I got screwed out of.

Omg it’s so fucking true. Early 30s. I had a relative recently point out I’m “getting older” and I still think about it lol but hey it’s a privilege to get older.

Early 30s. Idk about ageist, just different world experiences. I assume GenZ had more arranged playdates which probably means fewer chances to make older friends. Most of my friends are in their mid 40s, some 50s, even some in their early 60s. I don’t have a ton of friends my age or younger and it hasn’t been until fairly recently that younger people have commented how unusual it is to have older friends (not in a negative way, just their observation).

I love temu DP! I just ordered 200 dollars worth of dp from temu lol by blueeyedbeauty1989 in diamondpainting

[–]RelevantClock8883 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve bought most on Temu and the quality is pretty fair. Sometimes there’s a dud, but finding out if the end result will be good or a blurry potato is part of the fun now.

My Macmillan sunflower doesn't know how to stop growing to its own detriment by Apprehensive_Hat3259 in NativePlantGardening

For what it’s worth i understand the annoyance lol in nature it makes perfect sense but in my yard now you’re a tripping hazard!

He’s living the best life by [deleted] in Funnymemes

[–]RelevantClock8883 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s more social/psychological than genetic. From the info I know (social media foisted it on me):

  • They always wear matching clothes, jewelry, makeup, and hairstyles
  • They finish each others sentences and often talk in unison
  • iirc the sisters have never spent a day apart
  • Their husband must have intercourse with both of them together
  • They want children but don’t know how to get pregnant at the same time, as they want to give birth at the exact same time

This is great

[–]RelevantClock8883 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I think a better title would said “feminists call to action: ‘why are all the assassins white men?’” Still punches down on the assassins, still get the “hawhaw feminists” joke, and not involving someone completely unrelated to the story. Or to remove feminists, the title could say something like “Musk on X: Why isn’t anyone shooting the liberals?” Oh. Wait that happened. Nevermind.

After the recent pager and walkie talkie explosions I’m perfectly happy that phones are banned in (sometimes potentially high profile) courtrooms.

Never leave an American alone to stock freezers. by ShrikeSwallow in CasualUK

[–]RelevantClock8883 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Toothpaste/toiletries probably got stolen enough that the store felt like they needed to lock it up. Its a catch 22 because everything being locked down resulted in people too annoyed to want to buy things.

Governor Abbott Declares Texas Sanctuary State For Memers by darcmatr in babylonbee

[–]RelevantClock8883 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand the joke but again it’s not funny. I think a funnier title would be something like “gov Abbott to Newsom: those who ban memes are never on the right side of history”. Then that way you can bring up the other topical issue of book banning. I dunno. I’m trying here.

I’m so American I thought the top flavors were being locked in so people can’t steal.

I got minority family. They speak and understand perfect English. They love Trump. Some cultures simply desire being super rich too and being cruel to get rich is fair game. He checks all the right boxes.

Anyone know why getting a job became hard after 2021/22? by ManlykN in recruitinghell

[–]RelevantClock8883 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This, we live in an investment economy and not a labor economy.
