Just a below average idiot that mostly comments for one of 3 reasons:

Catharsis, expressing exasperation over the general state of things.

Looking to make someone laugh.

Self deprecation.

  • AI & AGI have me kinda terrified because of how we worship the rights of ownership especially in America.

    Some major company will own the AI/AGI and will have the right to all of the profits it generates. Combining AGI with the advancements of robotics, pretty much any job that could justify the expenditure of the robot and AGI will be eliminated. With how we treat the rights of ownership and with how the ownership class sees the rest of humanity, the only future I see is a future where “we have too many people” is the only conversation and not because we can’t feed them or house them, but because there isn’t enough work for them to “earn their own living.” The ownership class will never accept “giving” anything away to help people that “aren’t productive.” You’re not a human, you’re a profit generating labor machine.

    So: Work or Die!™ Now with 95% less jobs!

    Fun future. :(

    I was always pretty interested in geology, but I knew that the only secure work would be for oil companies so I never went for the degree…

    I was always really interested in gems and minerals, but admiring them isn’t a job, and photography in that field is insanely specialized and not exactly a reasonable goal to shoot for, so I never got that degree…

    I was also always really interested in astronomy, but there’s literally no work in that field at all so I didn’t go for the degree…

    I never “found myself” because all of my interests either has you working for “the enemy” or there just weren’t any jobs to be had. Now I’m stuck working in a factory and I have an upcoming job that’s for the Israeli military…







  • I have a coworker that does this and he’s the type that not talking is literally impossible for him…

    If he even walks anywhere near a conversation he has to insert himself into it and talk. He hangs out near another coworker usually and when that guy gets asked a question the annoying one will always start talking over the guy who was asked… He’s not even in the same role.

    He’s otherwise a nice guy and all, but holy shit is he one of the most annoying people I’ve ever met…









  • Not biased bullshit at all right? Completely lying about his legal stats to keep the chuds cheering it on. Typical.

    https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/abrego-garcia-and-ms-13--what-do-we-know

    “Abrego Garcia had applied for asylum and similar forms of relief in an attempt to prevent his return to El Salvador, where he feared persecution by Barrio 18. (The attorney who filed that application, Lucia Curiel, did not return calls.) Although the asylum claim proved to be time-barred—aliens are required to bring such claims within a year of entering the country—in October 2019 Judge Jones did grant his request for “withholding of removal” based on his “well-founded” fear of persecution by Barrio 18. The government did not appeal, so Jones’s ruling is now final.

    He was here legally covered under a protected status, as the article explains, for fear of retaliation from a gang in El Salvador that was extorting his family, which is why he came here in the first place…

    But it’s so much nicer to hate the brown man we don’t know. Nice to feel superior to “criminals” we know nothing about and just blindly trust what straight up lies the administration tells us. Nuance is dead.

    Putting all of that aside this fucking administration is saying “we shipped someone out of the country we can’t do anything.” And the country we shipped him to is saying “the US pays us to keep people here, there’s nothing we can do about it.” Stephen Miller says “anyone spreading hate about America will be deported.” So freedom of speech is dead and once you’re gone there’s no coming back. Not a bunch of fascists at all though.
