Why are we still listening to that chucklefuck's comments?

Go to an employment agency/temp agency.

There's paperwork and possibly tests before you can actually get work. Do all of that now so that you don't have to wait while they process the paperwork if you get furloughed. Be sure to explain that you're expecting to get furloughed.

With the holidays approaching, retail stores may need extra staff. Not yet, but post-thanksgiving.

I've never done it, but there's the payment for taking surveys online.

I agree with others that the car is a major money sink. Can it sit in the driveway and wait for you to get through this?

Paying a friend to drive to work together probably costs less than gas + insurance + repairs.

What video card are you using?

Is Reddark still being updated? Cuz it still shows 1600+ subs as dark.

Is this yet another individual announcing the end without really knowing if it's over?

Tasers were introduced to police forces so that the police could de-escalate potentially lethal situations with less-than-lethal means. 2 seconds later, tasers turned into replacements for billy clubs to mete out punishment. That was not their intended use.

Every time they do this, they are turning a non-violent event into a violent one.

First, you prove down to the penny that you're not just saying that while you profit more.

You think you can just keep pulling the same shit?

This guy over at Mastodon conducted his own research about supermarket prices in Austria.

That's some damning shit.

I can only imagine the shit going on in the US.

Pomelo. Like grapefruit without the mess.

A) Any nuclear exchange will fuck the entire world. Assuming that we can just toss nukes with impunity is foolish.

B) If you compare the loss of 3000 people to the number of people killed in US dirty wars, the false flag attack that triggered Vietnam, and other military misadventures, the US is far, far ahead compared to those we've slaughtered. I'm not saying that it's OK to kill 3000 people, but treating the rest of the world like expendable pawns in the name of the US is disgustingly one-sided and ignorant of the evil our country has visited upon other parts of the world.

C) The idea that we were just innocently doing nothing when we were attacked ignores all of the violent foreign policy we have practiced for 70+ years now post-WWII. And we still haven't abandoned those practices.

Abandon the FOMO completely. I do not reward shitty behavior. Destiny 2's launch was the end of that. Let other people pay top dollar to playtest it and work all the wrinkles out. Let all the DLC come out and the game GOTY edition if it's that good. Let others buy that. THEN, when they are going to launch the sequel, all of that pap will be sold at basement-level prices. Maybe wait a bit longer if it was really popular.

I'm playing Divinity: Original Sin 2 right now. ;-)
