  • Yeah, I mean, your time is valuable and it isn’t going to make it more enjoyable if you’ve already made your mind up about something by trudging through it more. People talk about slow build and “wait until it reaches the good part!” but quite honestly, if a show takes an awful long time to get to whatever you believe is the good part or at least the meat of the story that makes it interesting, then it’s not a good show. It has bad pacing.

    I have a gauge of limit as to when I personally rate or judge something. An album has 5 songs to hook me, less if the album is lesser than the standard. A show, has 5 episodes to get me invested, less if it fails the first two episodes. Movies have maybe an honest 15 - 25 minutes not counting slow logo reveals, previews .etc A game has maybe less than 2 hours to get me to want to revisit it.

    So on and so forth. People will nag you about how you can’t judge things so early, but again, your time is more valuable.




  • *You’re. I’m sorry for being that guy, but you’ve made that mistake three times.

    Anyways, it is never worth being the hard-working type. I’ve learned the lesson that once you prove to be reliable, management is going to gravitate towards you and work you to death. That means, they’ll want you always helping others, they want you in multiple departments, they want you doing extra tasks on top of everything you do.

    So, don’t be reliable. Just do what you can and call it a day. Don’t over-achieve, especially if the company-related rewards aren’t worth it.



  • That’s what we hoped when Biden got into office.

    What did Biden and his administration do to people like Trump, DeJoy, Pai .etc?

    Nothing. Absolutely fucking nothing. “Oh but but, Biden TRIED to get DeJoy to step down!” No, not enough. He should’ve been tried and convicted for knowingly trying to sabotage a general election. He got to walk clean. Trump, got away with initiating a huge Insurrection, he got to walk free and is back in power.

    So, no, I don’t hope anymore for whoever to come in and hold these people accountable. What they’re going to do, is allow these cretins to go running free, not serve jail time, not face any punishment and still run with the shitty policies to build on. You can only do so much through executive orders, too.

    We’re fucked. The time to remedy more damage was 2024 and it was fucked up.










  • I’m too tired to really spend my time being too correctional on what I should or shouldn’t enjoy based on the actions some people do. It really depends. Ian Watkins is an exception, a horrible person, who made it easy for me to drop everything Lostprophets-related.

    I still listen to Disturbed, because there’s way too many songs I like from them. I don’t have to care about David Draiman and I don’t, because of what he did.

    I will still enjoy Harry Potter, because I believe the universe is bigger than J.K Rowlings to where, anything she does or says will not knock down my enjoyment of that universe. I can and will ignore her existence.
