I'm 38 and I've had about half of that, but the vast majority was from 16-25. They were all shitty retail things or short term odd job type things, but work is work so I include them if someone asks how many jobs I've had except on a resume of course. I just stick to relevant things there.

I've done everything from retail, to refrigeration diagnostic work. From wiping ass and giving meds, to even being a carnie. The only type of jobs I've never had are "real people jobs" like office work. I'm just a subhuman meat machine.

Thanks for the additional information!

There's no way Chandra would have been saved with just $16k lol

Indubitably!

It means most certainly, beyond questioning.

And it's fun to say!

Introducing Walz as a VP hopeful sounds like they’re describing a Palin-level government official, not someone who has been active in politics for years.

They did the same to Vance though. Isn't he a Senator? They didn't mention that, just that he's somebody hoping to be Trump's VP. They also provided what I would see as a positive point for Walz: a football coach. That could be taken as he has an interest in teaching others, possibly children, but they don't specify there.

I'd have to agree, however much I know media is biased, that this one is fairly neutral.

I don't know the cost with the paywall, but did the boneheads there really think this garbage was more important than the Chandra x-ray telescope!?

Most AI crap isn't ready for primetime... Why couldn't this wait...

The US government is doing a wonderful job getting EVERYONE who isn't an Israeli to hate them. Our involvement with the decimation of Gaza was sickening enough but if we're going to aid Bloodthirsty Bibi in a literal war against another country then we deserve what we get.

The more this shit goes on the closer I get to agreeing with the accelerationists that just want to rush the downfall of the US. We'd deserve it.

Absolute fucking insanity...

Migrants damage the environment so we should ~~rip up the environment to build a wall that will block wildlife also damaging the environment.~~ protect the environment with a wall.

God I hate these pricks...

 

Hey Lemmy! Time to do some digging!

I was sent a link from a friend about some Totally Cool™ guy who has close ties to JD Vance: Curtis Yarvin. Anyone aware of this guy and his desires? I won't put the link in here as my last post was removed because of it, but a comment within the thread is copied below.

Apparently Japanese media covered the story as was posted to Reddit, but there doesn't seem to be too much talk of this in the US.

From a comment in the reddit discussion: “Curtis Yarvin is a far-right ‘intellectual’ that wants to end democracy and install what I can only really describe as cyberpunk feudalism. He’s suggested turning the United States into a patchwork of corporate fiefdoms ruled with absolute impunity by CEOs, as well as putting mandatory ankle monitors on all unemployed and poor people. This sounds like a joke, but I’m serious. JD Vance is not just a fan of him intellectually, but also a personal friend. As someone who has known about Yarvin for several years, it’s been really concerning seeing how he could potentially become a Rasputin-like figure in the event of a Trump victory. Beyond this, Yarvin has also spent many years advocating for what sounds eerily like Project 2025.”

For those familiar with Star Citizen lore, he apparently wants to turn the US into the Stanton system “lol” …
