It worked out fine. I prefer having a soul that wasn’t assembled by a five-year-old for twelve cents an hour.

Its like ethics and morality don’t matter to capitalists when there is a despot with big coffers to appease.

It’s almost like poor people buy cheap shoes because they can’t afford quality shoes.

I don’t have any Nikes, so I’m going to go buy some and then burn them to show that I’m boycotting them!

“National Bestseller”

Only because the publisher astroterfed sales by ordering thousands of copies of their own book. I doubt anyone who would believe this hysterical bullshit is much of reader.

Sir, this is not a place for horses.

The quality of the man-made materials has diminished. People have complained that the plastics literally flake off and crack after about 6 months of wear and tear. The stitching is pretty weak, too.

I resolved never to buy or wear Nike back in the late 90s. The companies practices are abominable but I also hated the culture of conspicuous consumption and the way people believed it gave them license to shit on others for not turning themselves into a walking ad. I grew up poor, so I know the feeling of being made to feel less-than because I got Pro Wings on instead of Jordans.

The one valuable thing DOGE showed is is what happens when you put a 19 year old broccoli-haired dog shit person in governance.

So, what you’re saying is, the world is built for people who are good at superficial performances?

I guess I’ll just have to accept my fate as a highly skilled, highly valued individual who doesn’t need to perform a circus act to be taken seriously.

You must live in my town because I’m dealing with the same bullshit.

This would explain my current experience. I lost my job in the middle of October to a round of layoffs and have been submitting resumes or applications to at least 2 places every day. Out of roughly 82 applications, I’ve had two interviews and neither of them called back (one actually said they’d let me know regardless of their choice).

I’m not being picky, either, as I’m submitting for everything from line cook to systems analyst. I’ve even utilized professional consultants to help me create resumes for just about every industry my skill set could apply to. It’s beyond discouraging.

It’s hard to take these all these policy wonk shitheads seriously when they claim no one wants to work when I’m over here banging on the window and fogging it with my pleas for employment.

These manlets already believe in hateful and regressive bullshit. Is a little more going to make that much difference?

Yes, normal people always take their cues about gender politics from 30+ year old Japanese children’s media.

Don’t let the door hit you on ass on your way out.

“Feeling sad for a Karoline Leavitt” is under “Eat my own feces” in my list of things I dont want to do.

Do you think Elon let’s him watch while he’s ploughing his wife?

This is satire, right?

Right?

Hint: He’s a massive shithead.
