That’s funny as hell and now I’m buying it to trigger the snowflakes.

Any alternatives?
I don’t read fortune or Inc or any of them.
Just want a mental list of more reputable sources for business news.
- Comment on What are the visually-best anime you're seen? 5 weeks ago:
We are in a resurgence. I kind of skipped watching anime for like a decade, and then started picking it back up during the pandemic. Frieren, Chainsawman, Demon Slayer – it’s a great time to be a fan again.

People not in the media are getting fired for this. A art director who worked at Sony got fired for saying that he hopes the Charlie Kirk shooter was named Mario.

Are you bringing the violence Mr Musk? Because that sounds like a violent threat.
- Comment on When real life generates the shitpost 1 month ago:
Transcendental meditation has been a rich people/Hollywood woo-woo thing for decades. I’d put it in the harmless but off beat practices like hot yoga and juice cleansing.
I don’t disagree with you. He owns a shitton of cars, dated a 17yo when he was 39yo, and has the privilege to frequently shrug at real life issues and pretend to be a passive human being while hiding away in his wealth and luxury.

Well it also spits out lawsuits and lawsuits on top of those lawsuits.
And then a bunch of people get rich.n

I love Clickhole and The Onion.
- Comment on thick skinned employees, how can you be so thick skinned? 1 month ago:
In the show Severance, you have a innie and a outtie. That’s me.
My innie is here to do the work and make money. Sometimes my innie hangs out with coworkers. Or acknowledge their major life event. But innie does marketing work and adds more garbage to the garbage pile.
My outtie has a family. He loves his family. He takes them to plays and dinners and outdoor events. He paints and watches lame TV. He tells his wife how beautiful she is, his kids how proud they make him.
Their two lives are separate. Innie is focused, driven, direct, and some what of an asshole to get the job done. Outtie is loving, spends time with his family, and paints.
Am I thick skinned? No. Innie is just willing to suck corporate dick and do a song and dance so outtie can enjoy life.

A great reason to move to the West Coast!
- Comment on Who is the enemy? 1 month ago:
I saw a “update” button pop up on my screen. The IT guy ran over, shouted “WTF I turned that off! Fucking bullshit!” And he stormed off.
I think about that a lot.

I was really surprised how quick my kids fell in love with Super Mario 3(Super Mario All-stars).
Their cousin played the Switch version and my introduction led them to try and 100% all the classic 2D Super Mario games.

Only if you teach them. My son is playing casual games on Steam and emulated games.
While my son’s friends were talking about new Call of Duty/Fortnite updates. And they’re like 8yos.

You’re worried about child predators on Roblox.
I’m worried about my dummy kids taking my credit card and buying microtransactions.

Oh what a memory! I remember I was playing Sonic the Hedgehog, where my best friend was playing Zelda Lttp and my crush was playing Doom.
And yeah, when PS1 came out, suddenly we were bringing our own controllers to play Tekken. And then once in a while, go to our one buddy’s house to Oogle Dead or Alive 2 on Dreamcast.

I have been using standing desks since 2010.
Originally not by choice, because the only spot in the office that didn’t smell like farts was the high tops near the kitchen. The chairs weren’t very good and I was used to standing long hours anyways when I was a server.
I’m still using standing desks. And i love seeing standing desks everywhere.

- Comment on HR people smiling at you thinking that you are a complete moron 2 months ago:
Man, I was on that manager side, having to lay people off because of some bad decisions from upper management.
I usually do everything I can, like give them recommendations letters, try to give them as much money as possible that they’re owed… Literally bend over backwards.
Everyone takes that news differently. One guy cursed me out, kicked some shit and stormed out. And I just got up and cleaned it all up because brother, I get it.

Imagine that, but even louder, and moving on normal roads. Should be fun for everyone.
Of course it’ll be fun for me. Im in the airplane, getting to my destination on time.
- Comment on Mastercard release a statement about game stores, payment processors and adult content 2 months ago:
There’s been two decades worth of lawsuits because PayPal has a history of withholding revenue and blocking stores from small e-commerce stores.
I’m talking about e-commerce sites selling a board game, making $40k in sales through paypal, and PayPal refuses to give them money.
PayPal’s stance has been, “Fuck you sue us.”
I’m not saying this because I think Peter Thiel, who was one of the creators of Paypal, is a fucking evil villain.

Loss of income is really difficult to sue for. Especially if you’re an indie company in another country, trying to sue an international company. You either sue locally, or open up a office in their nation.
And your case has to be rock solid.
Like tech companies still lose cases around loss of income, even when it’s obvious to the average person that the major company is going out of their way to stamp out competition.

On a road trip, I drove by a farm that sells "Sweet Cron’.
Thinking it was a mistake, I saw more signs bragging about the Sweet Cron they had. So definitely on purpose.
