@eggplant_3 @sickburnbro What courts?

Power is a beautiful thing when it's wielded.

@WilhelmIII @sickburnbro @VikingWays @jb @Shadowman311 @TornadoOfTerror It was also an opportunity to gain some personal power. Bioleninists.

I remember in the 1980's some proto-prog-HR woman at my university was giving a poorly attended talk about getting more women into STEM. She was exactly like you would imagine her. When I said that this would end up pushing out competent men, some very high skilled, she openly admitted it was right and fair to make up for women not working in the field for so long. So long? What? Decades? Centuries? Millennia?

She saw a chance to fuck over the men she hated. That what it was all about.

@graf @eriner I thought personal hand guns were illegal now entirely.
Huh.

@Oven_Operators_LU_88 @sickburnbro If there's any message to be passed on to our posterity it's this, Pick your own damn cotton.
Or in modern terms, Write your own damn code.

@Tripp @BobsonDugnuttHB @jeffcliff @haberdasher It would be accepted as a change in management for the most part. Because that's what it would be. There's a lot of good will between Heritage Canadians and Americans. Actual Americans. But we all know who's running things. So it wouldn't be much of a change.

@jeffcliff @BobsonDugnuttHB @Tripp @haberdasher Most of the ones that do are old fucks who are pissed they're being replaced and won't be here much longer.

The younger people are just trying to survive.

There are too few who would be capable of actually doing anything.

I'd be happy to be wrong.

@Tripp @BobsonDugnuttHB @jeffcliff @haberdasher If we were still in actual Nation then we could cause problems. But we're not.

The new Canadians would just see it as new management and a step up because they could make more money. And the old Canadians don't care anymore.

@Dr_Edgar_Friendly_MD @BowsacNoodle These idiots have no idea how easy it is for pissed off employees to passively sabotage a company into slowly going under over time. Because who gives a fuck? I'm not going to be here forever anyway and there's always another shit job to be had.

@judgedread @p They were ramping the nuclear war films and TV movies up pretty strong right up to the end. You still lived your life but the prospect of nuclear war was very real.

So was the relief when the Wall came down. An allyship with the new Russia was everyone's hope.

@Jewpacabra @sickburnbro Hah. And it takes just a few (((kauffmans))) to utterly shit up a community, a workplace or a nation. The US has millions.

@sickburnbro @CrustyBurgerhead @TrevorGoodchild @AmonMaritza @Hertz @Tripp @lpheathen Beer big time. It's remarkably easy to consume it regularly, approaching official alcoholic levels (it's not as much as you think), but still be able to function well enough in life.

Cutting it out was the best thing in terms of stupid calories in plus all the other health benefits of not drinking alcohol regularly. Mood, sleep, mental clarity, and appetite again.

An easy win.

@sickburnbro @TrevorGoodchild @Tripp @AmonMaritza @lpheathen Yes. I didn't mean that was the best way to do it. It just happened to suit my nature. I got tired of the extra weight and just said, Screw it. I'm losing it.
It only took a few months and I started going to the gym regularly as well towards the end. I felt great. No urge to eat for the sake of eating. Solid sleep. Clear mind.

@sickburnbro @TrevorGoodchild @Tripp @AmonMaritza @lpheathen I've lost 20-30 lbs twice in the past by calorie restriction. I was overweight but not quite into obese territory. Both times I found it was just getting used to feeling hungry. Something few of us experience today. It took about a week to get used to it and I could just go without eating through the day OK and then have an evening meal.

It's mostly a mental thing. But I did get that preoccupation with food thing at the beginning. It's an interesting experience.

@sun In the past I've used temp (labour) agencies to get quick work and cash between regular jobs. Depending on the agency and work some will pay you cash at the end of the day, provide transportation to the job site and basic tools and clothing. A couple places got to know me as reliable and a good worker and would bump me to the head of job lists. Some companies use temp agency labour to filter for possible future full time employment at the company. I was asked twice.

The work can be not great and is physical but it's not back breaking. And I liked the variety in the work.

Another thing with your STEM background is tutoring high school and college level courses. For high school especially it's easy to bone up on math, physics and chemistry and there is always a demand. Easy to get cash payments as well.

@Jewpacabra @_Seraphim_ I'm older and settled now with a woman I am going to spend the rest of my life with. But during the middle years after my divorce I met several women who I dated for a time, briefly or not so briefly. Not one had serious considerations about marriage. For them it was some ill-defined maybe, someday, but for now let's just have fun. I know they're not all like that because I finally did meet a keeper, but holy hell there are a lot of shallow vapid twits out there.

@s2208 @DC5FAN @_Seraphim_ @Jewpacabra They've had it drilled into their heads their entire lives that, "they don't need no man." And their girlfriends will reinforce that at every opportunity.

It's incredible social conditioning when you step back and see it for what it is. And it's harm has been incalculable to our people.

@s2208 @_Seraphim_ @DC5FAN @Jewpacabra It's the very young, pre-schoolers and the first few grades, that you see them thinking and talking about marriage. It's still something very special to them that they understand instinctively.

Then it's snuffed out of them, often by their own teachers. All of whom are "career" women. By age 12 it's well underway. By 17 it's done. And 10 years later they are panicking over being alone.
