Excellent news. Even if he made a few too many vital blunders in debates to be the PM, he’s a really good leftist politician and he absolutely deserves that seat.

There’s not going to be anything ‘arbitrary’ about those inspections… In a bad way.

Bad Dragon

They haven’t gone overboard with THIS one, because they already went way the fuck overboard years ago and never got back on board

Man I’m gonna have to bite the bullet and make my next machine a linux one

You love to see it! Every little bit helps.

Fun fact, a Tesla spokesperson describing the car’s features was talking about how they wanted something on the car that didn’t make it to final release and said “But sadly we couldn’t get that law changed”, which does… kind of imply that they lobbied the regulatory bodies into allowing this piece of shit to exist.

Please tell me we didn’t just name a really important major project something directly adjacent to a very famous Super Rightwing Fascism plan…

Very informative, thank you.

You can kind of see how all these problems would compound with each other and make each other worse. Of course people don’t wand to pay taxes to a government that will waste or embezzle their money. But the government does need money to make things happen that might improve the situations of the everyday worker. The government needs competent administrators, lawmakers and judges to properly regulate the private sector, but the private sector can pay a competent person triple what the government pays because the private sector isn’t subject to laws that force them to be ethical.

Guess there’s a reason that corruption is such a common cause of failed governments.

ELI5: Why is the greek economy so fucked?

Somehow this is worse than Reddit. Sure Reddit isn’t good, but at least Reddit was sane enough to understand concepts like ‘working too much is deeply unhealthy both physically and mentally’ and ‘corporations should not hold absolute power’

TieflingMelissa! She’s a pretty significant community figure on Twitter and Twitch, great memes, nice discord server.

She’s very down bad for dragons (same), but honestly she’s actually pretty wholesome; her server doesn’t allow explicit NSFW and she spends a lot of time helping new players learn the rules of the game.

Disguised??? She’s the biggest icon in the community for it lol (and a legitimately great content creator)

God this feels EXACTLY like Azeroth from World of Warcraft. But hey the dragons have some isles and eggs so I’m down for that, love me some dragons that are actually doing well in a setting

Skill Issue

(I joke, of course)

Listen. I do not want fucking ads in the start menu. I have no idea how to code and I can’t use the command terminal to save my life but I swear to god I’m going to switch to Linux before I touch Windows 11 with a 10-foot pole

“Until war aims achieved”

Alright I know the statement is one that’s very dependent on context, but… man, that phrase could have come right out of Putin’s mouth circa 2022 while he was trying to justify his invasion of Ukraine.

In the interest of transparency, I don’t know if this guy is telling the truth, but it feels very plausible.

Alright then. Let’s see your resume

Yeah that checks out. I’m not even american but I’ve got to say every single American healthcare worker I’ve ever met on Discord is CONSTANTLY and incurably miserable because they work inhumane hours for so little money that they actually can’t afford rent anyways. I know someone that spent an entire month doing 10-hour shifts 6 days a week which made him unbelievably sick and exhausted, and by the end of it then his paycheck didn’t cover replacing his car’s spare tyre. I know someone else who was ordered to come in every single day in the two weeks after her mother died and on the day of the funeral or she would be fired immediately and without recourse, while her boss took his fifth vacation of the year. I know someone who spent seven years studying to be a nurse and their debts are so bad that I’ve had to talk them out of suicide twice because the job doesn’t pay SHIT.

TLDR: Frankly I’m amazed America still has ANY healthcare workers based on the ones I’ve met. The situation isn’t great in a lot of places because medicine can be expensive, but good lord is it truly bad in America.
