How to cope with existing right now?

It feels like no matter where I turn some septuagenarian, or older, is making life miserable for myself and others. Usually these are older white Christian conservatives, obsessed with a delusional sense of reality that no longer has a basis in fact, or perhaps never did....

In all fairness, I’m more of an asshole than a troll. When I’m rude, I’m not doing it for clicks : it’s the real me .

The transition from the holiday season back to the normal drudgery is so depressing. Is there any way to make Jan / Feb less depressing?

like, it’s still dark at 5pm, there are barely any sports on, still bitterly cold and austere and it hurts to go outside, but you’re not even looking forward to christmas or the new year. the new year is here, and it’s largely the same as last year. except you’re getting older.

What’s the state of community sport in the US ?

In the UK we have the same mindless billions in Soccer, but there is still (just about) a good level of community sport, like semi pro and below, where you can watch for almost nothing then go the bar after the match and drink with the players.

You don’t get the same athleticism and artistry (from overtrained genetic freaks) But you still get brilliant entertainment, drama, fun moments with your tribe. Etc.

Community sports is where it’s at.

As much a love to bash the yanks, it’s not just them any more .

You could take any of the top 10 brands in European football, move the stadium anywhere in the world, and no one would notice but for a handful Of die hards.

If Man City moved to Dubai tomorrow, would that really surprise you ?

If Real Madrid moved to Florida , Liverpool to Beijing, ? Your left with 10,000 pissed off locals, but that’s nothing when you’re a global brand.

Bait and switch.

I’m ditching it. The convenience has gone and content has gone. I built a wish list which is now mostly unavailable.

I need to up my game in terms of automating my torrenting and making it family - accessible.

  1. Try to secure a firm schedule for your L2, and what conditions need to met-to achieve it, . Not because you are especially ambitious, just because you want to keep growing into your job.
  2. Demonstrate a wider interest in a) your department (what is the current state of tools, processes, what are the pain points) b) the wider company (how is the company performing, does your dept have a good reputation within it)
  3. Tell him you think you are in a good place to grow both technically and as a person and as long as that remains true, you are happy and loyal.

When you are running the place, don’t forget your friends 😉

Out of interest, how do you guys read your ebooks ? Tablets ? E-readers ? Laptops ? Just interested to see who does what.

Alright, I'm gonna "take one for the team" -- what is with the "downvote-happy" users lately?

Title. “lmao internet points” and all, but what is the point of participating in a community that sees assumptions and other commonly non-harmful commentaries/posts as “bad” this easily? Do folks in here are really that needy of self-validation, even if it means seeking such from something completely insignificant like...

You need to be much less fragile, or life is going to be hard. Really hard . I say this because you seem like a good guy.

If you’re a ‘modern’ artist like Damien hirst or Tracy emin, you must behold this genius and feel your whole life was wasted.

Haha 😛. I had this twice this week.

you might think that’s clever, but what if I took out of the hearted comedic context, and used it introduce my particular agenda
