  • Such hate for the mildly imperfect.

    The time for comments like that was shortly before the general, cuz she’s a literal angel in contrast to the shitstain traitor Donald Trump.

    A short list of other things that look like a literal angel in contrast to Donald Trump:

    • A half-eaten ham sandwich

    • A biopsy from Biden’s ass cancer

    • A plastic bag full of my toenail clippings

    • That splotch on the floor of a public restroom that you’re not sure if it’s blood, poop, or a mix of both

    • Hit that subscribe button for more examples of things wildly more qualified to govern than Donald Trump!

    The general election is over, and it is no longer necessary to defend the contents of that list, to include Kamala Harris. If, during the 2028 election, we’re in 11th hour of a race between her and another amalgamation of Adolf Hitler and the contents of a colostomy pouch, by all means talk her up to the best of your ability. At this time however, there’s nothing to lose for calling her out on being a piece of genocidal trash.



  • Every job I’ve ever had, my coworkers and I have pretty openly discussed the ‘taboo’ shit like religion and politics. We can generally keep the flames under control, and if shit does start to heat up we’ll change the topic knowing that the conversation isn’t going anywhere at that point… but ultimately it’s been a consistent point of growth for pretty much everyone involved.

    Coming from the Trump regime, I can only assume it means “convert your non-christian coworkers to christianity, and other application of this policy will get you fired” so, 100% fuck this shit. Coming from less of an absolute shitstain traitor, I’d actually be in favor of this kind of rhetoric. Maintain policies requiring professional behavior and prohibiting harassment so that those who don’t want to discuss it are empowered to shut the conversation up; but in a consensual setting, sure I’ll hear you pitch coming to Jesus or w/e - so long as you’re equally receptive to my counterargument.

    That’s not how it’s gonna work, so again, fuck everything about this, but fuck if it doesn’t hint at a nice sounding ideal.

    If you want a chocolate coated cookie that isn’t shit and isn’t Nestle, be in the lookout for Tim Tams.

    They can be a bit tricky to track down in the US - ‘world foods’ type grocers would be the place to look.

    They’re an Australian cookie that puts US junk food to shame (not a high bar, but still).

    They are especially amazing if you take a tiny nibble off of two opposing corners, and use it like a straw to suck some coffee or tea or anything hot. Shove the whole thing in your mouth the second you start feeling coffee come through, and enjoy a gooey explosion of diabetes deliciousness.

    Bonus points if you can find the caramel ones.






  • Get in the habit of composing your emails in a specific order. My preference is:

    Write the title, upload attachments, write the body, choose the recipient(s).

    Doing the recipients last in particular gives you that extra few seconds to consider all the other elements so you can realize and correct any mistakes before hitting send. I used to do shit like send w/o attachments or send to the wrong/not all of the intended recipients all the time, but following the same order has basically idiot-proofed it against myself.

    10/10, do recommend.


  • I mean, you’ll have to choose a hobby or w/e that puts you into a compatible crowd. If you’re interested in women, don’t choose something that’s male-dominated.

    …also idk what ‘normie’ means to you, but it’s actually okay to date someone who isn’t a carbon-copy of yourself as a different gender. My wife isn’t into hardly any of the nerdy shit that I am, nor vice versa, but there’s enough overlap that we don’t generally struggle to find things to do together; but enough that’s distinct that we can explore our own interests when the other isn’t available. What’s way more important is you enjoy eachother’s perosnality. Specific interests, field of study etc absolutely do not need to be on the same page.

    So again, pick something. It doesn’t have to be your favorite thing to do; if you enjoy it even a little, there’s your like-minded overlap.
