If only more billionaires tried to visit the Titanic.

Not Trash Pandas. Waste Management Pandas.

One of the cardinal rules of power struggles is "If you're gonna shoot for the king, don't miss."

These people really don't understand the difference between household budgets and sovereign nations, do they? Does she think a bank is going to repo an aircraft carrier or something?

Okay so here's what I don't get. I run a small team of 10. I am SUPER cool about people calling in. I don't give people grief for it. I don't have ridiculous performance expectations. I get that timelines have to slip when people call in. Even my upper management is pretty sane.

YET PEOPLE STILL COME IN SICK. WHY?!?

Motherfucker you're in a union shop with 8 hours sick leave a month and 10+ hours of vacation time per month AND at least 3 floating days you can use whenever AND other leave benefits. Most of you assholes are sitting on like 200-500+ hours of leave in your banks. I tell people to take care of themselves and their families first on the regular. The hell else am I supposed to do? Give people a gold star and a BJ for calling in sick? Keep your goddamned plague at home.

The dumbest possible thing to be radicalized by.

So ... the German is boycotting the Jewish guy's event over his statements regarding the morality of war crimes. The Onion is doomed, we're out of satire.

The fuck is going on over there Italy? I know the USA's a dumpster fire but are you guys like ... trying to be the European equivalent of Mississippi?

Someone in that org needs to be an adult and say no to pointless rebrands and brain dead consolidation. Literally nobody, even Google, is benefiting from this spastic behavior.

They all say they work well under pressure after all.

Every time my mom forwards me some stupid thing from a political source I take her off their mailing list.

Right?

The "escalation" was the invasion, Elon, you simpering pile of shit.

"I see you've been through enough traumatic experiences that you've developed age inappropriate styles of communication as a defense mechanism" is really what that means.

Ok, but that headline is weird. I can tell you exactly why he said that shit and it's not bizarre, it's just gross.

Trump's rhetoric relies on a wide variety of in-group references and cultural touch points and pretending to be the reasonable one while framing anyone left of him as an absurd caricature is how Trump do. It's what his base likes. They want to pretend that their opponents are ridiculous people concerned about cruelty to flies instead of basic necessities like pest control. They've built this whole narrative where Democrats are simultaneously weak, ineffective losers and also somehow a grave threat to the very fabric of our nation.

To his base It doesn't matter if the specifics are factual, what matters is that the broader gesture feels true (by affirming their existing biases).

Classic fascist playbook tbh.

I'd use this one.

Is this "company culture" in the room right now?

Always give your boss as little information as possible. They aren't entitled to it and are much more likely to use it against you.

I say that as a manager. It's just good practice. If the manager doesn't know exactly why you're taking the day off, they can't be held accountable for it either.

It'd be one thing if they were only opposed by people for more gun control, but they aren't even really good at their core mission. All they do is simp for the GOP, even when doing so runs counter to their stated agenda.

Or they just LET THEM WRITE instead of running everything through some asshole with an MBA

Palestine will be free a month from now

Really?
