  • Hey my dude I’m not going to answer your trove of questions trying to poke holes in my reality.

    Take care of yourself.

  • I’m lumping the contractors who work adjacent to the gov employees as the same group tbh because I’m seeing them laid off in droves too.

    Shutdown means no contract extensions means employees just aren’t there anymore instead of laid off. It’s another method of hurting his opponents.

  • My salary is below the median where I live.

    Could your salaries work in New York City or San Francisco?

    I work for my money and use most all of it for the survival of my family. I’m not saving vast quantities and I’m not the problem.

    My 5x the USA median salary isn’t the problem. The fact that the median salary is 5x less than mine IS the problem.

  • I don’t take 16k home a month.

    I have a family.

    I live in a high cost of living area.

    I live below the median income for my area.

    You’re just out of touch with my circumstances in the same way I’m out of touch with the circumstances of workers who make minimum wage and similarly struggle.

    The point is that I’m made to be the enemy of middle America workers because of this notion that my larger salary makes me a cry baby removed when in reality it’s the folks who are taking all the money from us who are the cry baby removed.

  • Thank you for proving my point

  • When a 6 figure income has people living pay check to paycheck and that same paycheck would make others live comfy you have a problem.

    We have been pitted against each other.

    My salary is around 200k and to much of America I’d be considered a crybaby removed saying how I live paycheck to paycheck and the shutdown might break me.

    My plight is closer to the plight of the underemployed worker in middle America who makes a quarter what I make working as many hours or more, their boss can up and fuck them over too on a whim.

    If we want the workers in middle America who don’t make near as much as the govt workers or workers on the coasts / in cities do then we have to go out of our way to lift them up too.

    Anyways. This shutdown is bullshit and I know of at least 4 projects that have already cost the government in excess of 2 million dollars that are just going to die because the funding is gone and the facility is closed and the product can’t be delivered. Everyone is being laid off, all the knowledge going away.

  • His last words, after once again proclaiming his innocence were

    let’s get it

  • Ohno

    My nips have been rubbed raw on long runs, I couldn’t imagine my lips 🫠

  • Thank you How dare you for making content showing Grendel survived.

    As a joke, just to be funny, what if instead you killed Grendel. Just to see how it feels.

    He is the problem.

  • FWIW until you explained it the first comment made me feel ick about it, but now that you’ve explained it I’m back on board.

  • Thank you for creating FOSS angel content, they will expose Grendel for who he is.

  • 2 less Tylenol hitting the streets is all you need to worry about.

  • Friend this is meme comment chain.

  • Friend this is a meme.

  • K

  • Much of what you wrote here could be considered a spoiler about the show.

    Even “Task has ended” informs someone who hasn’t watched the show to expect the arc to finish rather than another season.

    I’m just saying it would be better to have your thread titled in a way that doesn’t spoil. If you are going to write “spoilers” as the content of your message you might also inform folks there will be spoilers via your title.

    Things like “wait for that ending” or “I can’t believe the twist” or “nobody lives happily ever after” can be considered spoilers.

  • I’d like to posit that explaining the show ends in a certain way AND that it is over gives some expectations for folks about the show.

    Especially in a com dedicated to television one should use spoiler tags.

  • I was not actually being super serious, Otsego Amigo and Otsego Electric are just stupid fun songs.

    Push it is definitely their biggest hit
