I’m learning a bit of sign language since my wife will likely be fully deaf inside 10 years, and one day we were in a food court and I saw two people arguing in ASL.

One of them started getting larger and more abrupt with their movements and the other interrupted to sign “Don’t yell at me.”

I wasn’t paying enough attention to know what they were arguing about, but it made me giggle a bit at the phrasing.

I used to work in a warehouse that made a HUGE deal about the employees using the proper recycling bin so the company can get a nice check from somewhere or other for “going green”

This warehouse recieved thousands of pallets every day.

Each pallet is wrapped with hundreds of square feet of plastic wrap.

Each box is individually wrapped with maybe 10ftsq-50 depending on size.

Each box contains goods in plastic bags. Many of them with plastic clamshell packaging.

The products get unwrapped, and placed in larger boxes on shelves.

When the items get distributed to stores, the items were put in plastic bags, boxed up and wrapped in plastic wrap, boxes placed on pallets that were automatically wrapped by machines in hundreds of square feet of plastic.

None of the plastic from the warehouse floor is separated from the general waste.

Remember, it’s your responsibility to reduce waste.

Ooh, sweet! A middle eastern country that Americans can name is making improvements!

Military Industrial Complex: absolutely fucking not

It’s crazy how quickly things can improve when global superpowers aren’t fucking carpet bombing them.

It’s “Jesus take the WHEEL” not “Jesus take the YOKE”

I think of the shareholders, board, c-suites, and all of their friends every time I gaze upon my Guillotine.

Mm yes, it wouldn’t be proper

Some of my coworkers have been literally in tears over a piece of human garbage.

One group was going on about how even if it were a democrat, “it’s always sad when an American gets killed for what they believe in”

And my response of “what about Melissa Hortman? Or her husband Mark?” was enough to get HR involved.

The HR guy is a democrat, but like… The “even with all the things happening I still believe the police are my friends and the legal system will save our country” kind. So I didn’t get in trouble, just got a “it’s probably not a good idea to start fights at work with the people we work with” and that was that.

I pushed it a little bit today when someone made a finger gun and I grabbed my neck and fell to the left a bit.

“removed by mod” lmao how fucking poetic

Nice to see mods here are working overtime to appease the fascists. I am aware of the comment’s original message, and am in agreement.

Man, the party that went on for decades about how democrats were going to make thoughtcrime illegal sure are speedrunning making thoughtcrime illegal.

BiHnuch, please

Their ashes will pave the road to Gre’thor. The cowardly and the damned will tread upon them for an eternity of suffering.

m sorry to insult your coworker

Don’t be, most of them are barely more capable than apes. And that’s mildly insulting to a few ape species. With a little training, the apes would be far more capable and understanding.

This one in particular isn’t the worst, but when he’s on drugs he can be.

Most of them are racist, homophobic, transphobic, antisemitic, Islamophobic, xenophobic in general… At least nobody has been wearing the Civil War Losers Flag. Well, several of them do wear plain white cut-offs…

The moral high ground is filled with corpses.

Whenever two or more major characters enter a holodeck, or are interacting with multiple people who enter a holodeck:

Who would have thought that making millions of people’s lives actively worse in an already not great time in the most widely-armed country in the world could have POSSIBLY led to current events???

A coworker of mine was dangerously close to connecting some of the dots yesterday.

He started complaining about how things are getting more expensive, and how the company we work for has started buying things from overseas because even with tariffs it’s cheaper than buying American made, and then came the stunning part.

He said “They say they have to raise prices because of terrorists or some shit, but how do WE know if that’s true? How do we know there ARE any terrorists and it’s not just all bullshit made up by politicians and the news to justify raising prices so they can get rich.”

And then he took a hard right turn and added that “all those goddamn r****d democrats in congress” are to blame.

So close.

I don’t trust an ICE thug to know the difference between night and day, let alone different asians/pacific islanders.

The ONLY Asians I’d expect them to be able to identify are russians.

But what about her emails??? ??? ! +=:_?

The transporter chief would be the only one who could have told Riker for certain otherwise, and well… The chief on duty was certainly no friend to billionaires.

What’s the old busted hotness?
