100%. A full on IT Workers Union would immediately become one of the most powerful weapons in fighting the oppression of the capitalist class. An IT strike could be effective enough that a general strike wouldn’t be necessary

This is about a succinct of a deconstruction of the DNCs hand in this cycle as I’ve seen. They’re effectively Ned Stark

Google would likely be the subject of several lawsuits from other companies big enough to damages them if they just suddenly pulled the plug on Drive without an off ramp time. So even if one was worried, they’d have to have time to move the files somewhere else.

Whenever I get hit with a wave of depression, it does help me to remember that if I get through it I’ll likely feel like a god for a few weeks

I’m a systems analyst, I had to get really fucking good at assessing the stupidity and dishonesty of other people because I have to write documentation for people that couldn’t tell the differences between windows 10, windows 11, macOS, Linux, and Android. Not tell you the difference, tell the difference at all. But they tell you they worked with one of them for ten years starting in 01

This is a weird question for me, I’m from the American southeast, I remember having fall when I was a young man and it was wonderful, but those years weren’t common, the seasons I knew were hot n humid and winter(which was often hotter and humider than it should’ve been). Now I’m in the PNW and I think summer is far and away my favorite, although fall is still superb

Stardew valley could bring you hundreds of hours if you already have something to play on

I mean it’s been a hot minute since I watched hidden fortress but it’s definitely much more than the droids as far as influence goes, unless I’m completely misremembering it there’s also Kenobi, Luke, and Leia equivalents and Lucas hasnt even been coy about how it was a big influence on the original film as far as I know

I actually fucking loved Chalamets performance in the new movies because I felt his anger and resentment when he finally submits to fulfilling the prophecy and becoming the savior figure

I debated adding subgenre to it but since it was an unpopular opinion I decided to go for broke. I know there’s a lot of variance, and don’t really hate on metal fans at all. Though I do stand by my point, at least for me

I prefer hip hop and country myself, and my experience tells me it’s not uncommon for metal heads and punk fans to say similar things about those genres even though the stylistic differences between say dirty southern rap and the west coast game are super obvious to me

It’s all just preference and personality

Edit: also I’m glad it gives you what you need from music! I don’t get it but I don’t need to

This may not be an unpopular in the outside world but somehow I bet it will be here, the vast majority of metal is just straight noise and incomprehensible yelling to me. I do enjoy when metal songs are covered by bluegrass bands though

The only thing that ole Benny Shaps has ever said even remotely related to music anyone should listen to is him reading the lyrics to Wet Ass Pussy.

And then go listen to Sturgil Simpsons “Meta Modern Sounds in Country Music”, both incredible albums

Not saying it makes you like him but he has the exact same take

Naw fuck that, Bethesda gets from Virginia up through New England, I want obsidian to get a crack at the southeast and Midwest

I just discovered it last week and feel frustrated with the time I wasted sleeping on it

It will never not boggle my mind how many people willingly deal with an hour and a half commute in Atlanta traffic. I’m on the west coast now but as soon as I had a full time job that could afford it I moved ITP. I know folks that would commute from fucking Rockmart to Buckhead on a daily basis

I’m more of a straight hot sauce guy, I don’t need egg goop on my chicken sandwich no matter how they dress it up

Don’t put that on all of us, the Midwest is responsible for most of that

It’s always a choice eventually, indoctrination from a young age is difficult to shake but I stop that lenience around age 23-25
