Good evening, everyone. It's time for a thread I'm going to regret. *cracks knuckles*
3 or 4 years ago, I took a job at Lockheed Martin as a tech writer. They're like the 2nd or 3rd biggest employer in my region after Disney and the only major company that needs tech writers+
Northrup Grumman is another of the biggest employers in my area. Not a lot of fantastic options, let's just say. Anyway, I took it because they offered a living wage aaaaand
Health insurance that specifically covered transgender care.

I don't like those mom comics either, but the one about the peach in particular was taken way way out of context.
She used it to make a bigger point about not martyring oneself and just allowing yourself to "eat the peach."
She shares posts from her followers in which they allow themselves things they otherwise would've saved for the kids. It's not a bad message.

I'm going to talk to you all about adoption and fostering in the context of the concentration camps and abortion things that are going on. But first I need a coffee.
Ok I haven't had a coffee, but I've had a shower which is almost as good and so I'm going to get started. Fair warning: this thread may veer off into different directions as I get angrier and angrier about all of the things I'm about to talk about.

Ok I have the day off tomorrow and I'm having a glass of whiskey because I cannot fucking even holy shit. How can you go to school in America and grow up learning about WWII and holocaust and japanese internment camps and then look at what's happening right now and just "meh"
Know who I hate the second most after magabots? The fucking pricks sitting in their living rooms thinking about football and barbecues and saying shit like "I'm so sick of the partisan fighting" & there are so many of them! SO MANY and THOSE are the ones the politicians fight for

I think a mistake a lot of people are making is assuming that because their job is skilled labor, it won't be automated. This is a failure of imagination. A combination of AI and gradually lowered consumer expectations can replace almost any job
I didn't think they'd find a way to automate my current job. It's complex (despite what my customers think) and required a good deal of skill and training. But they did, or at least mostly did. I'll explain. A thread:
