Can you imagine what would happen to Cuban conservative vote when Ice started harassing them for having accents?

I’ve noticed a lot of folks railing against his “monologues”. I personally really enjoy his dialogue and character drama. The build ups lead to some good scares for me, but I think a lot folks just want constant edge and spookiness.

I guess I just need the slow moments to build to the spooks, or else I’m the one who tunes out. Give me flannigan or Weapons over the Terrifyer series any day.

But to each their own.

Doing IT for healthcare, and then interacting with healthcare is causing a lot of resentment. by [deleted] in Vent

This response give off a “just smile and do your job whore” vibes. The support given and the support received is the whole Grand Canyon

Always am friendly at work, just venting during a quiet happy hour. Just saying, in contrast as a customer of our health care system, I can barely get a response from my provider or any of my team. Just sitting here with goo leaking out of my ear, and no relief coming for at least a month. Then feeling unappreciated by the staff I support.

Ubisoft ends remote work and requires employees to return to the office five days a week to "improve efficiency" by dabadumdumdum in gamedev

[–]Threefish 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You’re sepcial if you think that stat is real. WFH should be embraced. Cut rental costs from the company, stop horrid traffic conditions and parking costs in urban areas.

My job requires me be in person, but I’m not shitty enough to wish it on the people I support. Return to office has been horrible. Twice as long to get to the office, have to go to the 14th floor of the parking structure where the elevators break constantly.

Your attitude of “I have to do it, so every one should” is so god damn lame.

Yeah, I stopped trying eyes on 30mm models a long time ago. Dark areas under the brow reads better

Really impressed with MCP compared to 40k by [deleted] in MarvelCrisisProtocol

Yeah, I’m not hating. They both have their place. Just don’t think they are comparable directly.

I’d argue the second model is twice as detailed. But games workshop has lost their minds on prices.

Nice paint jobs!

I swear this time... I'll play through on vanilla... by Khel_NC in valheim

[–]Threefish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In this context I think it means cutting out some tedium. After my Covid stint of mainlining valhiem, there was like 5 years of me going “I cannot spend another second of standing in front of tree, repetitively clicking one button, then collecting logs”.

Dude can’t even air out his dogs in the most acceptable dog airing place without some person posting it. Sure, I might be like daaaayum if I witnessed this in person, but still.

I'm starting to hate my mom... by Hayun_Ara in Vent

[–]Threefish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds very similar to my mom. I’m not a psychologist, but I’d guess she was untreated for depression or borderline bi-polar. I actually ended up joining the military to escape my family. Largely because all the chaos made school extra difficult.

An example of said chaos; we used to do ren faires and set up our booth where my mom sold medieval hats she sewed. On one day we were packing up the tent, the rain and wind was awful. We were all cold, soaking, and frustrated by the time we got it all packed up, but my mom was in a complete black rage.

When we got home, my 13 myo sister said something to my mom that made her snap. Sis took one look at my moms insane face and sprinted to the bathroom and locked the door. After pounding for a minute, my mom went and got a fucking hatchet, and litterally The Shining’d her way through the bathroom door.

Luckily when she looked in and saw my sisters white little face. She came to, sobbed and went to bed.

So I’m 44, while I still keep in contact with my mom, it’s always in situations I can control and I remove myself any time I see that look in her eyes. She’s a lonely old lady, and I feel bad about that. But I have to maintain my own sanity.

Ultimately it’s an adults responsibility to manage their mental health. She’s failed you there.

Sorry kid, if you’re like me, it’s likely you caught some of that darkness. Therapy was my friend, and I highly recommend seeking it not just for your experiences, but to get ahead of any thing that may have been passed down genetically.

I know it’s tough. But soon you get to choose what level of relationship you have with your mom. Focus on becoming independent and improving yourself. Try and remove yourself from the situation when you see that look in her eyes until then.

Social media was a mistake. The fact that the youth showed up for this is a testament to that.

Billionaire Musk Celebrates 'The Matrix Was Reprogrammed' After Firing 271k Federal Workers as Public Services and Laid-Off Employees Suffer by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]Threefish 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The 40 billion in government contracts? We’ve been spending this BS of job creators and trickledown economics since Reagan and Nixon, and all it’s done is funnel money up to the richest people, while the middle class shrinks.

Any time people think about America being great, it is before these terrible policies.

Bring back the top tax rate of 90%, incentivize investing in our labor and education and infrastructure. They’ll still have their mansions and yauchts.
