  • Wholly agree with your point.

    Off topic: why is the B word the only swear censored on blahaj.zone? I’ve noticed it in other communities from there and most, if not all other swears are safe.

    B: removed Fuck shit ass cock dick pussy cunt

    Either someone got mad for being called a B or they’ve got some conflicting thoughts on what justifies swearing and censorship.

    Edit: might not be just blahaj, but that only extends my confusion.



  • There’s an episode of South Park where they go to the writing offices of Family Guy for whatever reason, and instead of actual writers, they have an aquarium tank full of manatees and plastic balls with words on them.

    The manatees would bring the balls to the top of the tank, few at a time, and the staff would use the words on the balls as prompts for their new jokes/episodes.




  • “one political party in particular”

    CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICANS. Don’t sugarcoat it, CALL THEM OUT BY NAME. Otherwise they’ll just pretend it’s not them and do their damndest to act like they’ve done nothing wrong.

    Even the ones who aren’t actively protesting on behalf of the conservatives are still voting for conservatives, who end up making the claims that they can never produce sufficient evidence for.


  • Even more depressing when you think about how, overtime is extra money that they’re losing by making you work.

    At my job (pizza place, so maybe bad example), we have effectively only 2 night time managers, which means at the end of the week, whoever has the most hours goes home first, so that franchisee doesn’t have to pay the extra money.

    “so why not just close early if it costs owner too much to pay you?”

    Well, because. Just because, that’s all. Last time I cut orders at 5-or-10-to-close, the next day our owner (who I usually only see twice a year for MAYBE 20mins) came in and said I’d be fired if it happened again.

    People with money don’t give a single fraction of a flying freaky fuck about their employees. Unfortunately for me, I work in one of the (ten poorest) states in the US that enforces ‘right-to-work’ laws, which I recently learned, don’t mean that you have the right to work, but instead means my employer is under no legal or contractual obligation to recognize, let alone pay Union fees.

    Unionizing isn’t illegal, but good luck finding anybody that will do anything pro-union in one of those places.
