Yep, it's the only thing left I'm passionate about. I'm a history nerd from Texas and I got a chip on my shoulder that Mexican history doesn't attract history nerds.

Lucky for me I can't play guitar either. The only passion I got is Aztec history and I'm not qualified to teach anyone.

What technologies did you work with?

I'm actually aiming for AWS certs so hopefully my stack will be applicable.

I was putting in about a dozen per day on LinkedIn and was getting nowhere. Then after a few weeks there weren't a dozen places left to apply at. So now I do that about twice a week and look up posts created in a week's time.

My main skills over the last 10 years have been HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and the React framework. I just got done cramming Python so I can learn Flask.

Dice and Indeed have traditionally only gotten me third party recruiters and that never ends well or is profitable.

I don't have any other options that don't involve unskilled labor. I'm also not a young man anymore.

Web Development and UI/UX Design. In practice a React Developer that used Figma for planning. Basically I would draw the site, then build all the visual elements, implement all the behaviors, and then hook it up to a backend built by someone else. I'm cramming Udemy courses to become a Full Stack Web Developer.

I'm going to become homeless before I get an interview. I have ten years experience. I'm trying to keep my head held high and do self training. Even posting my Udemy certs on LinkedIn (I know they're worth less than toilet paper).

No one cares.

As a vegetarian I find this comic offensive. The last panel should be that dude viscously ripping apart the vegetable people with his teeth.

Just because I don't eat animals doesn't mean I won't body slam you if you're between me and a potato.

If I find more I'll post them.

Well the two Tezcatlipocas in the middle (red being an aspect of Xipe Totec) are from the Codex Borgia. The depiction of Quetzalcoatl Ehecatl is from Codex Borbonicus and Huitzilopochtli doesn't show up in Codex Borgia at all.

I wonder if their c-suite considered that maybe financially backing Trump while he campaigned on issues that would make large swaths of the population lose their job was the smartest of ideas.

Trump took my job so I can't spend money at Amazon even if I wanted to.

I thought vampires don't start during the day.

A nap after a sugar crash.

It's best to let things go that will never happen.

Rage bait for engagement.

You want to focus on power generation, batteries(you got good instincts), and air conditioning. With air conditioning you can make freezers to preserve food (pemmican is not bad either early). You can speed up research if your research bench is in a well lit area and if sanitation is high (put it on at least a wooden floor ideally sterile flooring).

Also just turn off raids until you get a handle on the game.

I was referring to the movie which does have the song. Maybe it works.

Yo I've never heard of this site. The older I get the more I like public domain media. Thanks for showing me this.

It's corny and is championed by some shit heads but Meditations by Marcus Aurelius helped me to figure out how mentally center myself during tribulations.

The answer is 'never'. If these people were capable of self reflection then Trump wouldn't have a second term. That's not how cults of personality work.
