There’s been like 9 variations of gender in the Hebrew biblical books for thousands of years…

This isn’t new, but the bigotry towards it is. Kinda like how being Homo was fine in Roman times but not in Confederate times. Hate is a social construct.

Great summary.

Ya, Lemmy is speed running the worst things about Reddit but struggling to build the niche communities that would make people want to hang around.

Those niche subs aren’t worthwhile here yet. They’re just filled with losers who insist they’re 100% right about everything all the time or they’re losers with nothing better to do than sit online and troll.

I love this site LoL. The people here are all the dumbest parts of Reddit, Tumblr and twitter rolled into one glowing repository of stupidity.

He didnt hire himself, he hired you…

I was waiting for the fart part of the story…am disappoint.

Jack Reacher enters the conversation.

If you’re at the poker table and can’t tell who the fish is…

I really don’t find the conversation any better, I think this place still needs to grow out of its echo chamber stage where it’s a niche place with few commenters or diversity of opinion. I recall Reddit in its early days, different but similar.

As a builder, I have had this scenario play out dozens of times. Clients paying millions for design and being shocked at what they get. My favorite was the charity that the architect spec’d custom handmade tile from Italy for… in a service bathroom lol. 40k to tile one wall of a bathroom for a charity that struggles to keep its doors open.

Your neighbor did right by their friend IMO. Hard thing to do but necessary sometimes :(

They’re not engineers and they’re too chicken shit to act like engineers.

Not my boss but a guy who I’ve hired before and absolutely will hire again and again.

In the middle of a major project one of this guys key people learned his wife had terminal brain cancer. She had months to live, they had young kids. Ryan kept showing up and working until one day he didn’t. Assuming the worst I called the owner of his company and asked if everything was ok.

The owner told me they sent Ryan home until he was ready to come back… which meant until after she had passed and he’d grieved. Full pay and benefits for the guy, they just wanted him to spend the rest of her time together with the whole family. They also started a fundraiser for the kids education, that we tried to help as much as we could. They matched every donation.

Subsequently, I’ve hired this firm again even when they weren’t the cheapest option. I want to work with good people, not necessarily cheap ones. That’s how good people operate imo.

Seems like they’re supporting Israel, not its politicians. Netanyahu is a trumptard IIRC, doubt him and Biden are chums, but Biden’s going to maintain US policy in the region regardless.

When I wake up and leave my bedroom l, the lights at the backdoor turn on so I can see where I’m going. When I get back from walking the dog, the camera knows it’s me and triggers the heater in the bathroom so it’s toasty when I’m showering. When I’m done in the shower, and turn the heater off, the coffee machine turns on. By the time I’m dressed, my coffee is ready to go.

That’s just one routine I’ve got set up. I’ve got ones for both kids rooms for wake up and bedtime stuff.

It’s pretty nice.

The same assholes who were on Reddit being pieces of shit are here too.

It’s the internet, everything is reduced to being shitty within weeks of getting noticed.

I can always tell when I’ve stumbled into a hexbear thread. It’s like showing up to a party and finding out it’s an insane clown possy party cw all the retardation you’d expect.

So China can meddle in the sentiment and politics of america but they are scared of the same happening to them?

I hope they choke on a bag of dicks. Taiwan should invade while China is so weak so they can reunify one China under its proper leadership.

Normal people hold their farts, consolidating them as the day goes on so they can release a large one in front of their husband/wife at the dinner table and discuss the days eatings.

Y’know, like normal people.
