@joepie91 back in 2019 Lowe’s made the snap decision to dismantle its in house FSA (maintenance) and Assembly teams, I woke up on my 30th birthday to about 100 text messages from my coworkers asking if I knew and if I was okay. I was off work so I called in to ask and was told to come in when I could so they could go over it with me. That morning in their morning managers meeting corporate had told the management team that we were to be let go effective immediately. They had to leave

You're not alone with a burning rage inside about the state of the world. Build community and break what's breaking you.

I think it's honestly kind of funny the very random mix of things I post on this timeline. Everything from "I am mad about some current awfulness in the world", to "Here's a fluffy story about a cat", to "aaaaaaaa help I can't sleep jrwlkjwkjrlejkrlk", to "hello everyone take care of yourselves please". And all kinds of other nonsense in between. I'm surprised anyone knows what to do with this lol.

Block evasion is harassment

If someone blocked you, they're saying "don't interact with me"

Blocking is about as clear a boundary as you're gonna get

So if someone blocks you on Fedi, but you can still view their Public posts, or if you have an alt that they haven't blocked, or if there's some way that you can still circumvent that clearly communicated boundary

Don't

Very grateful for the period of time in which people discovered they could make electronics make noises like "whir" or "pew" and decided that's what space and the future sound like

A large container ship that ran aground and crashed into a garden in Norway last week has been refloated.

Johan Helberg, who owns the house the ship nearly crashed into, said he "wouldn't have traded this experience for anything" as he watched it being removed from his property.
"Get a ship in your garden, and you'll find life worth living," he told Norwegian TV channel TV2 on Tuesday.

what the hell is a Cloud Security Architect and why would i want to spend all day in some gigacorp cloud console

(For the same reason, places that offer to pay for your education with a job guarantee, are exempt from this criticism. There aren't many, but it's more than zero)
