In the end, he's still in a Twitter slapfight with the biggest loser of the last decade.

Biden ended pandemic protections while there's still a pandemic.

Biden gave more money to police than trump.

Biden has gotten us involved in a genocide and a proxy war, and is handling them both just about as poorly as you can.

Biden is building more border wall than trump, and the kids are still in cages.

Biden is cracking down on protests.

Everything costs.more due to bad economic policy and his mishandling of the pandemic when he got.elected.

I could.go on, but I'm sure this will all be dismissed, and I will be assured Biden is just a smol bean who can't do anything, but here's a list of all the reasons he's somehow the most effective president..

Or let me guess. Trump is worse

Sucking foreign materials into your lungs is bad? You think someone would have said something by now.

Jesus fuck! I see why people fucking hate Lemmy. Fucking nerds

I'm sure I get considered rude once in a while, but I just don't acknowledge when people sneeze.

Personally, I like to make an assessment of my feelings toward the favor done. If I feel put upon, I give an "mhmm" or "yup". My enthusiastic response is usually "no problem!"

"You're welcome" implies you can ask for favors anytime, day or night, and feels a bit too prostrate. I'll say it to some people, but it almost feels like an "I love you" type of response, and I reserve it for when I really mean it. I don't say the words "you're welcome" casually. I kind of say them like you would say something deeply truthful to someone

While we're at it, what's up with young people saying "bless you"? I kinda thought that one would have fallen off with people under 35

We produce one kitchen trash bag a month. There are two of us, with a dog and cat.

Recycling and composting really go a long way

It's got me interested in trying it! My pothos is really taking off after a recent transplant

So libs are right half the time when they're calling me a Russian bot? That actually makes a lot of sense. I feel like I live the same day every day, and all I do is go to the bread factory to make some bougie asshole rich.

 

They were just champing at the bit for an excuse to get more racist. I can't believe the utter heel turn with their border rhetoric

/r/politics users are breaking their arms jerking themselves off over this:

I don't know why. It's just something that annoys me to read, and my go to way of getting the pressure out of my head after reading something like that is to make fun of it.

 

Sometimes I like to cruise the politics sub so I can drive by downvote libs and report them for breaking their precious civility rule, and honestly, I've gotten a decent amount of them banned for it, which is hilarious.

That is all

 

So, I've worked at my current job for around three years. I had a really good crew when I first started, and one by one, they all fell off for various reasons. My favorite coworker went and got a job at my old job (same field) and I got stuck picking up the pieces.

There are two owners. A husband and wife. They have been spending a lot of time out of state essentially on vacation and ignoring the shop. Also, my current batch of coworkers are not a good team. They're not helpful and just don't have their head in the game. I wouldn't care so much except it all falls to me to pick up the pieces when they don't pitch in.

Anyway, I took a meeting with the old place I worked at, and got a good offer. Plus, my favorite coworker from the current job works there, and I'm excited to get the dream team back together.

Why do I feel so bad about leaving? The bosses have been completely unavailable and I get no support anywhere. Hours are going down to zero and I can't afford to live.

I haven't exactly been vocal about my problems, because I've been trying to act like a leader and rally the troops

I guess I'm just looking for kind words of encouragement from internet strangers.

 

It's annoying and makes this site borderline unusable for me after reading the front page.

Thanks, I guess. I need less phone time.
