Close. Power grid engineer in the Midwest.

Most people are. We deserve it for some reason.

It’s me, your buddy - well maybe not your exact buddy but a dude living in this same scenario.

Please hang out when that last kid turns 18 and we are free. It’s horribly lonely and there is no one to help. Getting a divorce just means she gets everything including all the time in the world to manipulate the kids.

I will give you my review as someone who is a trans ally. The writing is bad. Like really bad.

I played DA:O when it first came out, bought the Golem bonus release package. It was a fun, dark fantasy game. Same with the expansion and the other DA games. This game has none of that in the story. It’s just a really awful written story.

The chuds, and I despise even typing this, are right. The trans/non-binary stuff comes out of no where. They go full vegan road biker CrossFit attitude with it and just inject it in the most random places. “Let me tell you about all the sets I did!” And then there are some kind of odd non-consenting scenes which make it even weirder.

It lacks ALL the magic and creative writing of BG3 with almost none of the character development. It’s Mary Sue shit from start to finish.

The combat is good, but it’s likely a separate team made it.

They don’t hire felons convicted of certain crimes. A lot of the people I used to work with had low level felonies.

I was thinking this same thing. Having worked there in high school they took hygiene and food cleanliness as possibly the most important thing. When you can back from the bathroom it was standard practice to ask someone if they washed their hands, and multiple people would ask.

People in the drive thru mad about food delay? Doesn’t matter, it MUST be cooked to temperature. Forgot to shave? Here is the little shave kit, please go shave in the bathroom. No one was rude about it, people sometimes forget.

One of the only ways to get a paid day off was coming into work and having stomach pain. Immediately sent home with pay, no questions asked.

You know this fat piece of shit that was covered in a dirty diaper and smelled of piss did none of that. Nasty fuck. Ice cream machine is permanently closed.

They just give us the PM title and call it a day. No court is going to take that seriously and allow a massive lawsuit.

No, but it’s illegal for them to do much of anything except confirm employment periods.

It’s all about who owns it and is sitting on the board.

Bunch of old money type people? They don’t care too much about a bad year, more important to weather the storms and keep the generational money intact.

Venture capitalists? Jack Welch this dogshit company and get us some short term gains!

It’s probably one of the dentists I visited while in the army.

“Toothpaste! Use sandpaper you bitch. No, I’m serious. Then floss with it.”

I know two senior programmers at Amazon who found new jobs rather than RTO. Within 24 hours after they left they got emails from recruitment identifying them as “boomerang candidates”, offered them a decent raise, and offered full time remote work.

This is nothing more than getting people to quit and hiring back key personnel lost in the process.

There is a species of mosquito that is a prolific pollinator, one of them for blueberries.

Because then we will have a few years of being able to sit outside in peace before going outside and melting.

The people in those countries must not have data worth harvesting.

It goes back to Steve Jobs talking about how engineers and programmers losing positions of power in companies and being replaced with worthless MBA people.

They cannot add any value to a product, ever. All they do is make things worse for short term gain. They are all taught the Jack Welch style of management which does nothing but destroy a company. It makes no sense why it’s tolerated.

That looks amazing. Thank you for sharing.

Gacha games are like magicians. You know they are total bullshit and there is no “magic”, yet some people still look at it and think there is something else going on.

Total waste of money, I don’t understand how people get sucked into those things.

I think it hit people a little too hard, but it’s one of my favorite kid movies.

Awesome. Thank you.

Dude creates villains like Joker and Bane and pays them to wreck the city so he can play hero, then gets them out of jail and they all laugh on his mega yacht.
