A Bin of Cores

honestly do not like the raw simmering rage and disgust that i experience day to day

Like you’re going to cold shoulder me and IM NEXT DOOR. ILL SEE YOU NEXT MEETING I GUESS.

Look, I get the automatic rejection email thing. It’s a little more frustrating after 3 interviews and an in-person all day interview I burned 10% of my PTO for the year on.

But how do you justify not sending a personal follow-up when I CURRENTLY WORK WITH YOU.

I’m in late stage burnout at this point. Every email or Teams message that is an FYI is just getting marked as read atp.

If there’s not an action item why are you sending it to me.

No one I work with seems to have the same level of understanding of how low the stakes are.

I have learned one thing so far: British people pronounce router “rooter” instead of “rowter” and I HATE it.

Training videos are a form of psychological warfare.

They aren’t trying to teach me anything; they want to break my spirit.

TED talks are just stage-performed LinkedIn posts.

Someone should do a segment where they ask a pundit to defend several DHS posts, but sneak a couple examples of posts from known neo-nazis just to watch them spin those.

Even if you included the now demolished east wing, the ballroom would be 23k sq ft bigger (if it is the 90k sq ft they said it will be a while back)

Imagine a CEO laying off a bunch of people and then giving himself a bonus by suing his own company and then immediately settling the lawsuit in his own favor.

Except you’re the people and it’s your money, and you’re technically his boss.

Cyberpunk world where the neon aesthetic is the result of a runaway series of pedestrian safety initiatives.

Least important observation in the United States right now but whatever happened to naming things like AmRx or USRx.

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.

“We are under invasion from within, no different than a foreign enemy, but worse—they don’t wear a uniform.”

This is the President of the United States, who ordered the entire leadership of our military to sit and listen to him, speaking a few minutes ago.

Deploying our superb armed forces on American soil, in peacetime, against Americans, is an illegal and unspeakable perversion of our men and women in uniform.

Military rule will bring profound and lasting harm to all of us. Conservative and Liberal Americans reject it. We the people reject it.

Local News Trump seems to back off Portland military plan: 'Am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening?'

I have been haunted by this statement all day www.kgw.com/article/news...

Like why is the speaker being interrupted by your random coughing.

Why is this meeting being disrupted by your dog.

I will become the joker.

Leaving yourself unmuted in a Zoom meeting with 87 people is a form of violence against me personally.

Luckily this regime is known for precision, restraint, and caution with who they target.

It's kinda remarkable we can live in such hyper partisan polarized times yet a key vector of political violence be nonpartisan (but still generally right wing) nihilist political violence

what was the point of any of this pain

I thought for a while that waiting 3 weeks just to get rejected was the worst.

But it turns out it’s waaaay worse to get rejected 48hr after applying.

JD Vance said he doesn’t care if the US commits war crimes. Did it make the news?

Donald Trump said he’s declaring war on Chicago. Did it make the news?

Executive agencies keep posting Nazi blood-and-soil propaganda. Did it make the news?

Hot take: You can be heterosexual, handsome, wear Ralph Lauren, and not be a Nazi all at the same time.

this stuff breaks you down the longer you stare into it, primarily because you can see the nihilism in the act infect discourse and the social fabric around you

i have cried today

Like, how is “below a livable wage” not the bottom grade for a place that near-exclusively hires people with college degrees.

If “grade 6” of your pay scale contains a monthly salary that would not allow a person to qualify for any apartment in the city that your company is in, then you need to really consider what is happening to people in grades 1-5.

“By the end of the year I hope to have done exactly enough work to represent the fact that my salary would mean homelessness for me if it wasn’t for my wife”
