I’m pretty sure Tezcatlipoca got me my current job.

I’m very scared about that.

I just got a job as a mailman. Time to grab whatever career is left.

I’m 40. I feel like my life is over. My career was destroyed by Trump and all this AI bullshit. I fear becoming an old man and not being able to afford basic life essentials.

Yep and so are garbanzo beans.

Elder Millennial here. I ran out of money to drink at the bar. Then I ran out of money to drink at home. Now I’m hoping I have enough money to bake bread and drink ice water.

We’re a for-profit country. It’s like everything we have set up is to make a few people very rich. The everyday tragedies are acceptable byproducts for those who run everything.

Classic music video.

Expect to die alone, absolutely. Do I hope to die alone, absolutely fucking not. My life has been one miserable tragedy after the other. This fate has not been my choice.

This isn’t news. Hell this isn’t even interesting.

Which faction would have that?

Probably not.

Fuck off!

Yeah sure, but I couldn’t imagine them taking someone as mediocre and old as me.

I like Aussies and Canadians. I would do my best to be an ideal citizen.

I wish you weren’t right.

I hope your luck will be better than mine.

I’m not a fan. I just don’t like anything David Lynch has made outside the original Dune movie. I can’t really defend my position, it’s just a personal taste thing.

Awww dang, I’m not on there. I guess I should be a bit more venomous in my comments.

I was a government contractor for four years. I made really good money, worked from home, and had really good benefits. A year ago, Elon and Trump decided to stop paying the contract I was on. Between outsourcing and AI, I couldn’t find anyone to hire me. I had to work in a grocery store for six months with ten years of web development and project management experience. I start my job as a mailman on Monday. I’ll never forgive them and forsake anyone associated with them. Until the seas dry and the land breaks, I wish suffering and damnation upon them.

I don’t think there is a difference. I didn’t talk to people then, and I don’t talk to people now.
