Also at least in my country I can call in sick if I have a headache, will be paid for the day and there is no number of paid-time-off-days, which will be subtracted by one when I do so. The employer continues to pay up to 6 weeks of salary if you need to stay at home due to sickness, and for a period longer than 3 days you need a dr to confirm you’re sick. The number of sick days per year depend on you actually being sick - I was baffled when I learned this is a fixed number in the US (at least for some) . I guess the motivation to work sick when you have a limited number of paid sick days also contributes to the usage of pain killers.

I guess you refer to the next election? I hope there will be one

I’m so sorry you have to deal with this. And so terrified that anonymity is wiped out that easily

My father in law told me how a guy at work created several pictures with AI for decorating the floor, bragging about saving costs since he didn’t use licensed pictures. But the AI may have used licensed pictures to learn creating those images. Artists lose money due to this being done by companies, which could very well afford paying the artists. I guess a private person creating memes with AI is not threatening anyone to lose their job.

How many centuries will they further try going back with their misogynistic rhetoric? I guess she’s also not allowed to eat apples anymore.

10/10 - now please make a 3h surreal dystopian movie in this style, thank you.

I mean it’s run by the biggest kid, so I guess it’s understandable that they at least want to check out what their like-minded fellow is doing over there.

I hope they turn away in disgust.

After reading Karate champion I thought he used it to fight the librarians. Either way a great story.

I wish I had your energy

Now I feel stupid that I always assumed they just don’t know better, but this makes a ton of sense - and they can even expect a raise each time they change jobs. So their whole career is based on bullshitting and they for sure make more money than me… I don’t like this thought process

Did you solve it? It looks as if it’s generated. I would guess it’s the lower fridge in case the items are supposed to be falling and the fridge will be the first one to hit the floor.

I guess 5 and 6 are real

Try to reduce social media. I did and feel much better without the constant input from others.

This kept me sane during 2020/2021. And I didn’t believe it till I tried it. Nature is awesome.

”The International Bottled Water Association said in a statement: “There currently is both a lack of standardised [measuring] methods and no scientific consensus on the potential health impacts of nano- and microplastic particles. Therefore, media reports about these particles in drinking water do nothing more than unnecessarily scare consumers.”

Fuck capitalism - “no don’t be too cautious, just consume until we can finally prove what tiny particles accumulated in your organs can do. How bad can it be?”

I was so confused by “Insulate Britain” - I thought it’s some weird satire and the showsection is called “Insult Britain”. But growing-concrete guy was serious and that was a real news show - crazy.

I was scrolling, amazed by the ongoing discussion - just to see this has only been page 1/5. Easter egg.

Neither am I
