For any Canadians in my feed who need last-minute Christmas money.
FYI, if you're outside the US, you can come here and just collect $3,000
Kristi Noem makes an announcement on Fox & Friends: "We are saying that if you voluntarily want to go home now to your country, if you're in the US illegally, we'll give you $3,000 through the holidays to send you home. We'll buy you a ticket, give you $3,000 to go home."

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

The thing i don't like about working in a call center is that there isnt any confirmation on a cell phone when you get hung up on.
On a landline, at least you knew.

Gen AI cannot express the inexpressible. It can only pull from the stolen work that has ben fed into it and spit it back out. You can't reach someplace new with it by it's very design.
This is such a misunderstanding of why writers, artists, and designers do research to begin with, which is to find something unexpected, not capture the average or find reference for the default.
And, as always, the biggest misapprehension: We don’t want to NOT do this part. It’s fun to learn shit

Anyone who supports this is an embarrassment. "Instead of typing it out they'll generate their idea"? Are you insane?
Call yourself whatever you want but you aren't creatives, that's for sure.

Everyday I tell myself that quitting my job and becoming a full-time househusband, while in our means, would be a terrible idea.
But I think about it every day.

My employer is lucky I work from home, because the level of coworker incompetence I've dealt with today deserves a stapler-chucking.

Making my whole personality about the fundamental force that pours uncontrollably put of my eyes when I'm not wearing my glasses and how everybody on the internet thinks it's the wrong one.
I’ll do one better: I’m gonna make my entire personality about all the bad luck I have had since being bitten by that spider because I refuse to ever actually talk to anyone in my life about anything when I could say something shitty and walk away.
