Rice belongs in my belly, and a burrito is a perfectly suitable delivery method

Also I hate to invoke harry potter but going through people’s family history and records to check whether they are or are not a real pure blood has the same energy as the fascist supporters of Voldemort.

My last job was like this weird combination of both. We were in a food packaging plant with heavy machinery active all the time and no air conditioning (so like 100+ degrees at all times) doing hard manual labor for a total of like 2.5h each 8h shift. My direct supervisors didn't really give a shit if we were doing anything for the rest of the time, but we still had to either hide or pretend to work for the rest of the time, and we absolutely could not make any mistakes about it whatsoever. like you might literally be sitting around with nothing to do from 10 to 2, but if 2:02 comes around and you're still not doing anything but across the entire facility some work finally opened up at 1:59 well you're gonna have a fuckin meeting where they shout and threaten to fire you and accuse you of being lazy and shit

have they considered actually doing their jobs as supervisors and letting us know when work opens up? no. of course not. we've just gotta know.

absolutely fucked

edit: just to spell it out as well (because its so ridiculous) they literally just expected us to be walking circles around the facility with a broom in hand for hours on end. that way we'd know when finally there was something to do. :agony-shivering:

I mean that genuinely does suck when you're doing it. The fact that many other people have worse jobs doesn't change the fact that if you spent 10 years pretending to be an important businessman at the business factory you'd feel like a drained, soulless husk too.

We've all got it shitty in this fucked up system. The only ones winning are the rich and even those fuckers manage to be miserable lmao

I’ve had lots of my work edited.

hmmmm, you know, a quick skim through most of the harry potter books would seem to indicate otherwise tbh

I for one want to see monarchal communism (does North Korea count as that?)

No, that's literally just propaganda. The DPRK is a democracy and the Kims lead because they are popular because they're essentially a family of "heroes" in their nation. You can argue that is less than ideal, but that is an inherent flaw in democracy, that celebrities are inherently powerful.

Yeah, Americans are bizarrely insulated. They really do think that the northeast quadrant of their town has a completely different culture from the northwest quadrant of their town, but of course those cultures are slightly more similar than the culture of those goddamn southwest quadrant motherfuckers.

The people in the next city over may as well be from Jupiter.

Yeah people hated Sarkeesian way back in early 2013, firmly before gamergate which technically started I think in 2014 and was only in full swing around 2015-2016.

I mean yeah, in certain contexts. In significant parts of the world they pretty much exclusively have that connotation still, the Nazis didn't really affect it that much. But yeah, if you're in the Americas or Europe cut that shit out obviously lol
