Ok, being a fly, try breaking into a beehive and laying your eggs in their honey, see how well it goes for you. Or just be thankful that you answer to no queen and all the world's shit is yours for the taking.

That's just what happens when you exchange a walk-on part in the war for a lead role in the cage.

Wasn't aware that Republicans love carbon capture- but of course they do, because it's a scam.

Huh, interesting. I always figured the black smoke was because they burnt one cardinal every day they failed to come to a decision to motivate the rest.

I have never played this game and don't even really know what it is, but wouldn't the obvious solution be to have the abandoned bases get eaten by sandworms?

Would make sense if he is selling recruiting & resume optimizing services or something- but from that job title he's the guy who puts the DRM on the WiFi in the touchscreen toaster oven to ensure it can't toast anymore when the company providing its cloud services goes out of business.

So my theory: that's a very competitive job market and he's looking for work, so he's posting depressing stories in the hopes that it inspires already-depressed unemployed potential competitors in his network to kill themselves. Because each one that does slightly increases his own relative odds of getting hired.

Well of course- but identifying online ragebait is also a valuable skill to develop, because then you can just not engage with it.

Wouldn't be surprised at all if the dude in the thumbnail is an actual IRL sexist- it's not an exclusive-or situation. The pattern of first passing these off as someone else's ideas and not his own, and then the "but idk what do you think..." at the end stinks of engagement bait.
