how can I ever leave this fucking website

Mommy needs to be honest kitten. You're not a kitten, you're a puppy, I know. Actually, that's exactly what I wanted to talk to you about. You've let this whole puppygirl thing completely take over our sex life and to be honest it's not really clear to me that you really enjoy it anymore. You really seem stuck in a short-term hedonic spiral from posting about it on tumblr and getting likes. And I know it's hard to get out of that kind of thing but it's really been getting out of control. You said "we're trying for puppies" to my best friend of 15 years. Seriously? How the fuck am I supposed to live that down? No one was laughing. The room was dead silent and I wanted to sink into the floor. And this was days after I was crying my eyes out over the infertility stuff. So you came across as kind of an asshole on top of it. Yeah, I know you didn't mean it like that but you can only point to "bourgeois morality" so many times before it starts to feel like you're just saying "I'm sorry you got offended" you know? Like every time I try to express that some basic social decorum is necessary to preserve relationships I care about you start misquoting Bakunin. And like look you have a lot of positive qualities but I don't think this is working anymore. We both know it hasn't been good for a long time.

This is good stuff, may get a notebook for jotting that down day to day. Anything you recommend for the personality issue itself? He'll sometimes get all of his work done, but actively insulting or sniping at people he's supposed to be collaborating with the whole time. Should I just write that off or are there methods you'd recommend for handling him?

Huh. So it's staying on my mind and I figured I'd ask the overbrain. Have y'all ever had to deal with a total asshole at work that hated your guts?

We got this dude at work, Kevin, that throws little tantrums whenever he's asked to do anything. We mostly keep him quarantined in the upstairs workshop but he'll huff and puff and whine when anything comes in, finishes maybe 3 projects a day, and fucks up 2 of them in the process. Any attempt at telling him he's making more work for others or getting him to correct his process nets you a tantrum and a sulk. He's now decided I'm his personal enemy because I leave at 5 and sometimes use the same equipment he does. The dude actively resists anything I'm supposed to bring him, ignores my questions when we have to coordinate, and throws blatant fucking insults at me whenever we're in the same room.

I aint really had to deal with someone this unprofessional in any workplace before, and I don't know if he's going anywhere because for now he's the only one who knows a program the boss wants us to use. Has anyone dealt with a guy like this before? What's yer advice? My own stance has always been that no matter how shit a job is you don't take it out on the guy standing next to you, that just makes everything worse, I honestly don't know how to process someone who gets handed an assignment and responds to the messenger by snapping "I'm already doing MY work!"

fascinating to me how quickly we forget that the cycles repeat. people treating 5-15 year olds like this breed of superchild created to do evil and taint the world. that was all of us. "they're wrecking sephoras" you would not survive a 2015 hot topic with this mindset. "they're falling for the stanley cup thing" buying on trend overly robust camping gear for every day use is like. a middle class tradition in this country. our glorious kånken backpack vs their wicked stanley cup.

I wonder why I find myself reaching for Gregory Horror Show stuff so much these days. There's some real charm to it, but I can't put my finger on what I like about it

getting new technology feels more infuriating every year. got a new computer for the first time in 8 years and everything about windows 11 and how it handles onedrive is driving me up the wall

Oh for the people who didn't know "chud" was from a monster movie (I called it a zombie movie but I was being broad) you must not know what the original chuds looked like either!

They live in the sewers and eat people and then in the sequel there was also a Chud named Bud!!

we should globally ban the introduction of more powerful computer hardware for 10-20 years, not as an AI safety thing (though we could frame it as that), but to force programmers to optimize their shit better

I really like dungeon meshi, so take this bit of propaganda

The necessary corollary to "people who think Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition is 'rules light' have relatively narrow literacy of tabletop roleplaying games" is "people who think Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition is the high end of 'rules heavy' also have relatively narrow literacy of tabletop roleplaying games".

Like, 5E isn't even the heaviest iteration of Dungeons & Dragons, and I have a dozen popular games just within arm's reach which are crunchier than any version of D&D that's ever been published. Figure out how skill defaulting works in Shadowrun 3rd Edition and tell me again that D&D5E is some freak mutant that's more complicated than any human being would ever willingly play if they had a choice. Yeah, it's above the median as complexity goes, but not terribly far above it!

Dear, sweet, Littlefoot, do you remember the way to the Great Valley?  I guess so. But why do I have to know if you’re going to be with me? I’ll be with you. Even if you can’t see me. What do you mean I can’t see you? I can always see you.
