(On my knees slapping a resume with like five jobs over the last five years on it) please man just let me sell out

Cayman (real) @caymanwent.bsky.social · 6m

I feel like a big grown up 36 year old dipshit. Please, I don’t need much but I would like to be able to like, invest in my future. I could do an office job so well man you don’t even know!

Like I’m not even burnt out, I’m woefully underemployed! Let me fiddle with your spreadsheets all day. I can send emails. I can totally learn sql if you need me to. Please I’m sorry I got a bachelor’s in hard science, that was totally my bad. I swear to god I won’t be stupid again

A) should I just get a corporate job so I can have actual benefits and be able to save money, and

B) is that even possible for me at this point

It’s very hard not to feel excluded in that circumstance.

he also said that 80% of antifa's members are landlords and if you lower the cost of housing, you basically starve the network of its financing

Hey everyone, we have some big news to share!

LACKADAISY - Last Call

A preview of Lackadaisy Season One - the Speakeasy is in its prime as Mitzi and the band regale the crowd with an original musical number, Last Call. This seemed like the ideal way to announce that Lackadaisy is now officially a ‪Glitch‬ Production!!

They have no skill, charisma, or mandate. As many parallels as can be drawn with the Nazi regime, they had huge, majority popular and military support. These chucklefucks, not so much. Once Trump is gone I anticipate a power vacuum as lots of people realize these guys suck actually

Armies are famously totally okay with not being paid

Aaron Fritschner @fritschner.bsky.social · 8h

A few minutes ago in the House:

- Speaker Mike Johnson officially cancels votes next week, extending the House recess through a fourth week

- House Republicans block Democrats from passing a bill to pay the troops during the shutdown, ensuring they will miss paychecks next week

House Press Gallery: During today's pro forma session, the Clerk read a message from the Speaker designating Tuesday, October 14 through Sunday, October 19 as a district work period.

Punchbowl's Briana Reilly: House gaveled in and out of its pro forma just now w/o recognizing Rep Elfreth, who was seeking to UC a mil pay bill from Rep Sykes.

Elfreth told reporters after that House Dems stand “ready and willing to take” up standalone legislation to pay troops.

How did something once so integral to my identity, my imagination, and my creative exploration morph into gooner memes, pup hoods, and pay-to-win social hierarchization? Am I just getting too old for this?

Not to get too misty-eyed and philosophical but seeing something so unique and genuine get subsumed by irony and repackaged for sale at Spencer’s aches deeply inside me. When did making up and drawing edgy animal people become an industry and/or sales demographic? What happened to us

Between this and the Spirit Halloween masks, it's amusing but also the nightmare of furry going mainstream. 💀

Amazing piece of animation, part of the Memories trilogy. Well worth a watch if you’ve never seen it.

Living in a neoliberal dystopian hellscape @breakify.bsky.social · 1d

Only socialism can defeat fascism. If you force people to choose between neoliberalism and fascism, the latter will win every time. The problem with having neoliberals in power is that they'd rather let the fascists win than ever cede power to socialists.
