Look is my neuro divergenting, or is it not obvious to others when someone hedges a bit, can't answer a question, and says they can go double check, that they DIDN'T FUCKING DO IT AT ALL?
I have frustrating coworker interactions, sure, but I guess at least I don’t work in congress.
A: there’s no holidays or anything today? No, because the stock market is crashing, so there’s no holidays.
Me: International Oops We’re the Bad Guys Day
Happy international women’s day to all who celebrate
Me: oh wow I finally slept through to 7am
Narrator voice: she did, in fact, not sleep any longer, the clock had moved.
I want to be able to say “boy/girl aquarium” or call the goalies the crabs because it’s cute and silly and you can go to the aquarium and watch them do them float around, and not have it be ruined as some weird parasocial harassment thing.
When I go to a real aquarium I’m not there to fuck the fish.
Watching a grown ass adult human have a full on petty meltdown at work is wild.
I tried to look up some Adolin-Shallan-Kaladin stuff after I finished Stormlight Archive because Sanderson is a coward, and was just like “eh” and just imagined some stuff for a bit until the itch was scratched.
I’ve been on the internet for 30 years. Tumblr was a part of my personal development. I’ve genuinely never paid ao3 much attention at all. This one got me, this one got me real bad.
I feel like I’m nominally reading Song of Achilles a couple % at a time, mostly as a farce while I keep mainlining multiple book-length Hollanov fics.
More from my ongoing series, "Am I the best boss, or the worst boss?"
Direct Report: "Is this too snippy, should I reword this?"
Me: *cackles* "Are you sure you want to ask the devil on your shoulder that?"
Yeah honestly starting off by massacring a girls’ school just seemed on brand
Screenshot of TikTok. Caption of a video reads: “nobody said male hockey players are smart I guess” The suggested search text at the bottom reads: “mens hickey team drama”
What are you saying, suggested TikTok search?
YMMV how true it was, but it was pretty straightforward on your new employer's insurance would deny you coverage for pre-existing conditions and people couldn't change jobs as a result, thus HIPAA which is... just more direct than I'd expect.
but it actually checks out that our dispassionate robot overlords, or an exploited worker in another country would look at our health care system and be like "yo, this shit is whack".
It is actually not very good, and definitely uses AI imagery in the videos. I'm on the fence about if the whole thing is AI because there's some weird grammar and word choice that seems more outsourced than LLM, and the voice over seems more voice synth than AI.
The way this mandatory HIPAA training module described the reason why HIPAA was based sounds dystopian as fuck, like they did not pull the punch. Is this HIPAA training based?
When you google something for the purposes of a joke, but the AI results are concerned about you.
I like how to explain the caught-cot merger all I have to do is say the name of it out loud.
As someone from the north, there's no way to not get fucked by only having 8 hours of daylight. It getting dark at 4pm feels most brutal.
Coworker: Sorry I’m the cause for you to get scheduled an additional meeting today
Me: I had very few meetings, I’ve been unsure what to do with myself.. just sit here and… focus on something?
I have unformed thoughts about the misogyny of it all but it’s not FOR ME so I assume no one needs these but also like surely there some layers of that in there?
A: Tomorrow back to the grind.
Me: Where I will try to thread the needle between annoyance at doing labor and appreciation of having employment.
A: Pace yourself, you have another 20 years.
Me: FUCK. OFF.
Sometimes I just have to close TikTok and contemplate why I’m on the children’s app when I see a comment about missing the days when people were airdropping each other stuff on the school bus.
I beg your finest nineteen eighty nine,
A: “His number is still from California. I had to ask him what eight-eighteen was from”
Me: “… eight one eight. The valley.”
Yelling “I’m mad at hockey now, the men can go eat shit!” when a friend points out the hockey game playing on the tv at the bowling alley you’re at, then immediately making plans to go see a Torrent game together.
Relearning how to chug in your 40s, but it’s Metamucil
You see one degloved leg and suddenly you don’t want to watch The Pitt while eating anymore. SMH.
A: “we should get rid of the executive branch, all of those fuckers”
Me: “Name a branch of government that’s working.”
