  • Don’t forget, those of us who “produce” aren’t even a consideration.

    The working class will starve. We’re already working on it with inflation, but managing to keep enough calories coming in.

    Soon, the billionaires will have no labor to produce food, and no labor to stock food, and no labor to handle their banal shit.

    Then, they will hunt us for sport. Or, more likely, a few class traitors will hunt and butcher us while they go hungry and the billionaires eat of our flesh.

    As an American who has worked night shift for too long… I’m sick of “breakfast” foods.

    Bacon, eggs, some carb, maybe spice it up by adding salsa or some shit?

    Nah, sorry.

    I’ve had my fill.

    8am is dinner time for me. I want steak, burgers, pasta, a fucking meal.

    I used to live in the “city” or at least, suburbs. I could find something.

    Moved to rural fly over state recently. I’d rather not eat than shove another form of egg down my gullet.



  • I’m not clinical, but I worked in medical IT off and on.

    The shit I would hear from clinical staff.

    Had a senior surgeon call me because his application was frozen. Cool, cool, lets get that going - wait - you’re what - palpating a child’s heart to keep it beating in rhythm? There are back ups upon back ups for anything IT related in that scenario. Don’t call your overnight helpdesk with that shit, have your nurse write it down on paper. Fuck.

    Most traumatic IT call I’ve ever had. Didn’t even care to solve his IT issue, just focused on patient care. My 20 something ass with a few years behind the desk told him to focus on the patient’s LIFE first and foremost, we can talk later.

    Always great for an interview question though - how do you respond under stress? Well, lol…






  • We live in troubled times, the planet is overheating at a rate that it might affect my life more than being more uncomfortable in the summer. And that’s Texas summers at that.

    There is an island of plastic refuse in the ocean bigger than some countries.

    I saw the home computer come to the living room and the internet be birthed.

    If you were to ask if I was jaded as a kid, already? Yeah. Around 7 years old.

    It isn’t getting better. Corporations claw for more and more at the expense of the people and the planet.

    I hope the younger generations can lead the charge of change, but for me… I don’t have the time or energy to play games most days, let alone change the planet.

    And for those who will say, “Aren’t you just part of the problem then?” Sadly yes, I am. I try to make changes when I can, but I fear changing the small environment of my home will not be enough.







  • Smelled it?

    My first time to Vegas was before any legalization, and someone in a neon green light up pot leaf shirt threw open his jacket to try to entice me along the strip.

    Seemed like a good way to end up in jail in a far away from home, so I stuck to drinking in the open like a sensible person.

    But yeah, I’ve smelled it too, lol.


  • I need a slightly less secure walkthrough to allow, essentially, android auto and google maps to operate.

    I did without for a while, and it wasn’t pretty.

    Lets just say I went from a sketchy hospital district to a very sketchy dead end in a neighborhood that had lookouts. Working nights, this was not a great time to drop in unannounced.
