I thought your UN looked familiar.

I left for the same reasons. Their native app is shit. They got bought out and took private. I have a dental problem with authority - back me into a corner by taking away my choices and you get brick.

I used to reddit a lot in 2011-2013 but set it down then just lurked periodically. I found out where everyone else was going and here I am. A bit of a learning curve to get set up but now I’m happy and this place feels like reddit (but friendlier) before it started sucking

All sex lives end up here. My wife has slowly over the course of months started walking sideways. She doesn’t notice it though

A lot of folks have their work tied to their personality like that.

I do kind of get the idea of working into retirement - I actually really like my job, it’s not soul crushing, and I pretty much get paid to learn things and write about them. In that regard, I’d be okay to keep going for a long time because I fucking love learning. It’s a sweet gig, and super rare. Big difference vs. someone conditioned to toil to their detriment.

I will retire, but when I do, I intend to be active in other things related to what I do for work. Volunteerism, mentoring, etc.

Management could stand to take a writing course. This reads like a trainwreck

Hilariously enough, I’m very Canadian, and the ‘crikey rozzers’ is burnt into my brain too. I have no idea where it came from, but it owes me about 15 years rent.

Gotta say it in the cheesiest British accent you can muster.

Thanks! I was hoping someone would catch the winter soldier activation

Lies. I have two hairy balls and I can’t find a cowlick on either of them. Checkmate, scientists.

LAWL. Outstanding

The amount of bullshit in permaculture is tremendous. It’s why I often get in online knife-fights with permies. They do a lot of ‘their own research’. Since they’re doing their own research, they’re liable to get roped into pseudoscience claims. I once saw someone trying to sell salt water as a soil amendment. Don’t get me started on electroculture.

Turd turd turd turd is the word

Fun fact, the original word for bear has been lost because people refused to mention them directly - like Voldemort

Bison bison bison

Or pica hudsonica

My apologies - I thought you were being persnickety - plenty of those people on the internet

Canadian spelling, you hoser.

My mental health is pretty good not bad

That’s like $10k right there

I thought this was a shitpost. I want my money back

Who is RL Mac? My half assed guess would be from always sunny but I’m fucking clueless
