This is going to cause problems for them…
Don’t republican conventions and things of that sort tend to impact Grindr pretty heavily?
Silly, you have to phrase it the way new parents do.
Legalize abortion through 129 months.
Eh, I’ve worked in a few call centers and from what I’ve seen, they just constantly hire, training groups for various contracts are frequent, and people are pulled from closed contracts to fill in when people leave or are fired from ongoing contracts. They also tend to overhire for each training group because a lot of people will quit or not be good at it.
They CHURN, and they don’t give a fuck because everyone is going to burn out or move on in short order anyway. That’s just the nature of the job. If you don’t seem like a good fit quickly they won’t keep you around. Is all metrics.
They are horrible places to work. Often referred to as “employment of last resort” by employment services people around here.
I’ve genuinely never understood how people can stand chocolate and fruit together. Or fruit and coffee for that matter. Chocolate and coffee taste kinda similar to me though so those mix well..
But fruit with either is just super nasty to me.
All that said, the best chocolate I’ve ever had was some imported thing that tasted vaguely of raspberry, but wasn’t actually supposed to. It was just chocolate that got stored with other candies.
I’m imagining a t-Rex with a high capacity O2 tank strapped to its back, and a little tiny human size oxygen mask covering like a single nostril..
But oh no! The O2 is low and it needs to change the tank, but the itty bitty rexy arms can’t reach so it’s just spinning in circles trying to get the strap off. It’s getting dizzy now from a lack of oxygen and, well, spinning. Eventually it just sort of falls over and maybe some other Dino comes and changes the tank for it (altruism isn’t just a human trait!). That Dino sighs and says “you do this every day. Just ask for help, dingus.”.
Thanks for that giggle :)
I’m just gunna leave this here… I had to go searching for it from the meme. Highly related. But SpongeBob.

Is this chucklefuck implying that there aren’t enough horny men out there to keep birth rates high?
Pretty sure that’s not the problem..
Maybe it happens in the future, but they come back through the birth channel and all, so it goes a bit further back than the 70s.
That’s why we ended up with boomers fucking everything up. It’s just how it always went. The few shit-ass survivors of the incoming shitstorm went back and fucked everything up, because they feel it’s their only chance at anything good. Ironic. Causing the very thing you are fleeing.
Ungh I hate missing garbage day.
Granted, I compost everything I can so it’s mostly just plastic that can’t be recycled, and then my recycling that goes every other week (for which I have two bins because I often forgot to take them out on the correct week, and a month of recycling definitely doesn’t fit in a single bin)
But by the time I actually go to take out my trash, it really needs to go out. And it’ll still take 2-3 weeks to actually get it out there on time..
Not to be “that guy”, but technically it’s the fetus’ placenta. It’s formed by the egg, not the mother. So it’s still wrong to say the baby is in its mother’s placenta.
Omg I would literally kill myself if I tried this. Not on purpose or anything, but frankly I’m amazed I haven’t yet killed myself. My stairs fucking suck.
They are old original stairs and they turn a corner halfway. Where they turn, there is a four-stair fall in the inner corner if your foot slips. Meanwhile on the far side it’s unclear how much further they go, because they aren’t particularly logically shaped, or even.
Omg are hip huggers and flares finally coming back? That’s amazing news!! I fucking hate wearing high waist pants and in the last few years that’s basically all one can find. Same with skinny pants. They are so fucking uncomfortable. I literally cannot tolerate them (autistic sensitivity for the win..)
Can confirm. Not squeamish per se, but not interested in putting things into any holes (other than food in mouth, and even that’s a pretty weak drive) and I’m definitely not passing on my shit genes, so.
Ah, it’s sort of a blessing and curse sort of thing. I have aphantasia, so I can’t see stuff in my mind. Dreams don’t work the same way, apparently, or at least not for everyone with aphantasia, and I get those, incredibly vividly (tho thankfully not all that often, maybe once or twice a month), but because I have absolutely zero experience with “seeing” things that aren’t real, dreams throw me solidly for a loop and I struggle big time with differentiating them from reality. That makes stress dreams and nightmares really really difficult, and I’ve struggled with them for many years.
The well-trodden dream town helps with that because I recognize it as a fictional place, so I choose to spend time there when I can, which reinforces the smaller details of it making it more vivid. It’s why everywhere I dream of repeatedly ends up being part of the town somehow. Not always because I want it there, but because I recognize the place as fictional and part of dreaming. Incorporating all these different places makes them safer; most of them started as bad places, even the glass gardens. That was a college social stress dream originally. I was probably playing some final fantasy type game at the time for the imagery. I got really lucky on that one; it’s a great place to go now.
I did a lot of work, and had to deal with a lot of wildly unpleasant false awakening experiences, to lucid dream enough to get to this place where I have familiar comfortable territory, but I don’t really control things now because taking control tends to backfire.. so I let them happen and use god mode to get out of situations I don’t like. Or sometimes to change zones if, for example, I end up in the dungeon labyrinth or mother’s sections of my house (repeated nightmare content that had to go somewhere.. now pocket floors between other floors, to make it easier to avoid) Sometimes it’s fun to go dungeon diving, and see what’s actually in there (it’s just basements, one after another, full of boxes of stuff and old furniture and shit, super mundane really except it never ends.. like that scene in labyrinth where she meets the trash goblin who keeps loading her up with junk because memories), but sometimes it’s a really unpleasant place to find myself and I just.. need to take the quick route back outside.
But I remember these places and events like they are completely real, and that’s really unnerving. I really want to build it into vr so other people could explore it, and it could actually -be- a real place, but I have no idea how to do that. If I ever figure that out though you are absolutely invited to visit!!
I love bad, as in poor quality, dreams. They beat the pants off stress dreams, as I call them; the emotionally charged dreams that shouldn’t be because nothing emotional happens, that have you wake up feeling stressed for unknown reasons. I also prefer them to nightmares and terrors. For obvious reasons.
But I use shit narratives in novel locations to form my dream town. Every new place I experience in a weird or boring dream gets, like, catalogued for later? Idk how to describe it but it takes another 3-5 dreams about the same place, which will happen sooner or later, to cement its special position in my town.
From there I can visit again whenever I want in lucid dreams. My town is like a hub to fast travel to all the other places I have discovered. So there’s like the garden district, that holds the library and glass gardens, the entertainment district which takes me to a bustling city street full of arcades and social stuff, the weird tall buildings district that has a skyscraper-type dorm I have a room in despite having my own full on multi-dimensional house (no idea where that came from but it’s definitely dorm rooms and most of them don’t have windows.. I think it’s the barracks from naval base San Diego, but it’s much taller and laid out totally differently.)
Instructions extremely unclear..
Died.
Shit this one doesn’t even work for that does it?
Cats also have them. You sometimes see them in the corner of their eye, or partially covering their eyes when they’ve just woken up or are sick or something. They are sort of a translucent milky white.
It’s because they evolved in desert conditions, from what I’ve read. They can see well enough through them but it protects against sand and stuff.
