  • No. My car is where I get in the headspace for work, or decompress once the workday is over. Listening to my music is a big part of that. If my boss wants to buy me a Mercedes, then maybe we can discuss expectations. Until then, anyone cheerleading this idea can fuck all the way off.

  • I was hired by someone, but when I showed up for my “first day”, they denied ever offering me the position. Of course, I was pissed, but I consider this “luck” because I’m sure that working for someone who pulls shit like that would have been awful.

  • Props to the web developer who put that red “read in app” tab in the most annoying, distracting place possible

  • Well, somebody has to make those memes that are out of touch, but with juuuuust enough recent pop culture to make the reader feel hip. It’s a delicate balance.

    Oh, and the memes can only be funny to hateful people. That makes it even more difficult.

  • They shouldn’t be allowed to do that. They should be required to process any legal payment. Even the icky ones.

  • Oh, okay. Still sucks, but at least I understand now. Thanks!

  • Things of questionable moral value have been available for sale for as long as money has existed. It’s not like this is new. Payment processors got into this business knowing perfectly well that some purchases may not align with their moral values. In fact, they’ve been profiting off it for decades. They don’t get to suddenly clutch their pearls now.

    To be clear, I won’t miss the incest games. I just don’t like the precedent this is setting.

  • So… why tell payment processors exactly what was purchased? Why not call it “Steam store transaction” and that’s it?

  • Oh, Kennedy. Decades ago, I used to like you. Now your attitude makes me sad.

  • Last I heard was something like “Fyre Festival 2 is real” lol

  • That might not be the ideal choice of words in this case, but I like your enthusiasm!

  • Well I’ll be damned. She’s actually doing something useful.

  • I don’t want to see photos of Trump’s tiny sliver

  • LokiLuciano (for those of you who don’t get the reference, Lucky Luciano was a notorious gangster. Loki is, well, Loki.)

  • I almost feel sorry for people who are this ignorant and naive. Almost.

  • I’ll believe this when Ukraine confirms that they received the missiles, and they work as expected.

  • I’m glad he’s your ex. At least you’ve gotten that far.

    Your mental health is important, too. It’s not worth it to burn yourself out. If that means you have to make a hard choice, then so be it.

  • While still a major cause for concern, I’m glad my first assumption was wrong - that the bottles were made of some horrible, poisonous material.

  • Huh. “A form of extreme self harm…” I never looked at it that way, but Anon is completely right.

  • General Discussion @lemmy.world

    Just finished watching Station 11 on Max. SOOOOO good!

    No Stupid Questions @lemmy.world

    Why is it considered sexist to ask women to smile?

    Off My Chest @lemmy.world

    Ever have one of those close conversations with some, and walk away thinking “yeh… I’m a good guy” (or whatever pronoun you choose, of course). I just had that happen. It’s a nice, reassuring feeling.

    Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    Why do some users have green leaves next to their names?
