Can we pretend that I shared the “I understood that reference” Captain America meme right here where it belongs?

43 percent thought God helped Tim Tebow throw touchdowns. Let’s keep this going.

What keeping this going might look like: Less than half can name all 3 branches of US government, with 26 percent unable to name a single branch.

Only about one third of Americans know that it’s Thomas Jefferson on the nickel.

These people vote.

I’m afraid this will be underappreciated, but you have my upvote.

…and my axe (or something)

But he has a robot maid and nobody has to cook.

Same. Used it a few times in the months since the API stuff to research some obscure shit but I have no account there now.

Even white boys got to shout…

We need to build more Titanic submarines.

Thank you kindly!

I’m studying to be a counselor and solid listening is half of the battle. Just feeling heard gives a lot of catharsis and if you can understand, analyze, and restate what they’re telling you in a way that drives insight, folks can usually solve their own problems. Getting them back in the driver’s seat is the goal in the first place, not fixing their problems for them. Helping them connect the dots goes a long way.

I’m not on reddit anymore but I know what you mean. I think of it like this, someone needs to hear whatever that person has posted, it’s just not me. It might not be the way I’d say it, but it’s going to connect with someone on a different wavelength than I’m on. Good or bad? Hard to say.

Amen! There’s plenty of content to doomscroll through as well. I genuinely don’t miss Reddit as that part of my brain forgets it’s not Reddit. Hell, we should call Lemmy “I can’t believe it’s not Reddit” and hire Fabio to do a commercial.

User name checks out. I scrolled all the way down to make sure I can say this and still be original in this particular instance only.

“We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason” is inconsistent with the law as well.

I guess, but I honestly thought he would be better at pretending to make good decisions.

Been saying it for a while, but his plan was to run it into the ground all along. Who is he buddy-buddy with in public? The Saudi’s and the Russians, who both have an interest in seeing Twitter burn to the ground. He started by laying off people, not paying their bills, and making stupid brand decisions. This has been the plan all along and there’s really no other logical explanation. 44 billion is nothing to the Saudis and Russian oligarchs if it takes away a key tool for organized dissent and the spread of western ideals.

Eh…it’s not like they’re not requiring you to put in 2 weeks notice, just tell a manager “Fuck you, I quit” at minimum. That’s a pretty low bar. It’s literally just no ghosting. And not like there is any enforcement mechanism assumed anyway, it’s just a sign. Abusive employer situation, sure…no one would judge them and it’s not like they can legally do anything.

Obligatory Half Baked?

This sign merely stipulates that you have to say “fuck you” to a manager before you leave.

Honestly this “policy” seems more like no ghosting than no quitting. The notion that you have to tell your manager that you won’t be back seems pretty dang reasonable. I don’t know what the consequences are or how they plan to enforce it though so we don’t have enough information to make a call really.
