what's bizarre is that this is the moment where everyone realizes biden is a walking pudding cup
the guy has been acting like this in public for the last several years, it's not like he was cloistered away. the only conclusion I can draw is all the "high information voters" don't actually pay attention to anything and just believe whatever john oliver tells them -

it was all an op to expose biden and get newsom in, that's why they didn't fuck with trump at all -

this is fuckin genius
the silver ring dealio helps contain the oil and the thermometer goes through it so it's at a convenient viewing angle and not awkwardly clipped on the pot -

@LostShakerOfSalt this is the first time one of my dried apricots has betrayed me -

I'm going to have to reconfigure the share but at least I could move a bunch of shit off this machine over the network -

modern people and younger people especially have no sense at all of how the world they live in was carved out of the wilderness, that the landscape wasn't just like this when the settlers showed up -

@Patricles @DireGoy sometimes they're just gathering resumes, sometimes they are required to go through the process before they can give the job to the person they already picked, for legal or internal policy reasons -

@DireGoy my best conjecture is all these businesses outsourced their recruiting pipeline to third parties and those third parties are just blocking 95% of applications from ever reaching the businesses, either through incompetence (idiotic requirements) or malice (filtering out white men)
that applies to the businesses that really are trying to hire. a lot of businesses are posting fake listings and even doing multiple rounds of interviews with no intent to hire -

I am once again left wondering if these timber strength charts are actually showing me timber strength or some conservative engineering value that has crept away from the true values over time so there's this unspoken safety factor built in already -

honestly my sense is everything is just kind of broken after covid and nobody wants to admit it. that's part of where all the shitty advice comes from, guys are describing stuff that was viable just a few years ago and they just can't believe it doesn't work now
there was a lot of inertia keeping things going kinda sorta okay until the lockdowns ripped the e-brake -

consider all the resort towns crying how they can't find enough service workers
before, service workers were probably living with a few roommates and doing okay because their individual expenses were low. but the lockdowns cost some of them their jobs, and they had to move back home, and all those fragile little living arrangements were smashed in an instant. even the ones who wanted to stay probably couldn't afford to without their roommates
and now, rent is sky high so even if the exact same group of roommates all got jobs and wanted to move back to that town because they all had nothing better to do, they probably can't afford to do it
the situation that slowly built up over decades to allow the resort town access to cheap labor is gone, and unless someone intentionally rebuilds it it's probably not coming back

this is only half the story
the other half is you need to really master that "itinerant serial killer" vibe
practice your intense stare and slightly too long pauses in conversation before you set out
maybe put a little fake blood on your fingers like you didn't quite wash all of your last victim off -

@teto I've heard quite a few times from white americans that it's a lot easier to get hired by a european company. sounds like that's true -

@teto yeah, it isn't. again, this guy is just lucky if he's not lying.
and if that's THE wyatt we all know, he is full of shit about a lot of stuff
what does "getting a job" even mean? I could get hired at a gas station in 5 minutes. I don't want to work night shift at a gas station and neither does anyone else -

I got the "nobody wants to work" spiel secondhand from a family member last night; apparently one of my cousins can't find employees for her business, to the point that she is keeping a guy on that she wants to fire for stealing because she can't replace him
I didn't talk to her directly but the claim is her employees can be making $150k in a few years and she's willing to train. there are probably tens of thousands of good people in her area who would jump on such an opportunity, so there's a huge disconnect here, and there has to be something fundamentally wrong with her hiring process -

@teto >well connected
well gee whiz. he's not even going through this process then, he's just getting referred internally
