Great summary.

Ya, Lemmy is speed running the worst things about Reddit but struggling to build the niche communities that would make people want to hang around.

LoL. You ain’t wrong. And from what I’ve gathered, the many of the people around here ain’t the kinda people in positions making hiring decisions.

When I wake up and leave my bedroom l, the lights at the backdoor turn on so I can see where I’m going. When I get back from walking the dog, the camera knows it’s me and triggers the heater in the bathroom so it’s toasty when I’m showering. When I’m done in the shower, and turn the heater off, the coffee machine turns on. By the time I’m dressed, my coffee is ready to go.

That’s just one routine I’ve got set up. I’ve got ones for both kids rooms for wake up and bedtime stuff.

It’s pretty nice.

The same assholes who were on Reddit being pieces of shit are here too.

It’s the internet, everything is reduced to being shitty within weeks of getting noticed.

Revisionist history is really making the rounds these days.

I just learned the other day Jesus was a Palestinian Arab which is really amazing because the history books seem to indicate that Jesus died before Islam was founded or the term Palestine had been placed on that piece of land by its colonizers.

I’m learning so much from Instagram and tik tock. It’s amazing. Who needs university degrees anymore!!!

Found the Nazi. You’re welcome to interpret whether this is meant literally or if I’m using your definition.

I can always tell when I’ve stumbled into a hexbear thread. It’s like showing up to a party and finding out it’s an insane clown possy party cw all the retardation you’d expect.

Normal people hold their farts, consolidating them as the day goes on so they can release a large one in front of their husband/wife at the dinner table and discuss the days eatings.

Y’know, like normal people.

Homeschool kids are so weird LoL.

Ya, he’s an idiot who thought he was bigger than The mission and got shown he’s not. You’re not coming out ahead acting like that.

Their brewery was a fun tour, the brew master was fantastic. Pretty good burger too.

Now it’s bought up by a large conglomerate so while the organic is still nice, there are much better local options available.

The lebanese joint near my office has a bidet in the public washrooms.

I think it’s weird. Bidets aren’t weird, one in a random Canadian public washroom in a Lebanese joint next to a tire place is weird.

The food is amazing. Legit good stuff.

3 sea shells about to be placed in the taco bell washrooms as cost saving measures.

It was specifically about the money. Please don’t be one of those people so ignorant as to believe that a firm who doesn’t value their employees until they’re one foot out the door is somewhere that will pay you what you’re worth in the long run. Being competitive now doesn’t mean I’d be making more money, it just means they’re now in the range for my position.

Money isn’t only valuable in this instant, the availability of money in the future is also an important factor.

I was abundantly clear that I was leaving for the money. They countered with a salary that was pretty much identical, but I wasn’t shy about telling hr that it shouldn’t take me getting another offer to convince them that I was worth paying market rates for.

No bridges burned, they’ve reached out twice now to see if I’d come back and the salary is now pretty competitive but I’m in a good spot and not interested in leaving.

You can be honest and diplomatic…if you try.

The government… The government will think of the landlord’s and your tax money will be the salve for the wounds.
