We deserved it didn’t we folks? People say we didn’t deserve it but believe me we deserved it. Everyone loved the towers, I loved the towers, they weren’t as nice as mine but I loved them. But no matter how much we loved them we deserved it, everyone is saying it believe me.

Is this a bit? Am I stupid?

YouTube essays (despite many being awful) are art. We live in a society of excess and made up jobs where the work of middle management is useless and wasteful. I understand you are likely talking about people just generating endless nonsense on a schedule just to make ends meet but you’re throwing the baby out with the bath water. Even the most frivolous or trivial essays are infinitely more valuable than being a bean counter at some hedge fund or an engineer at Raytheon.

Labeling art as “unproductive labor” is bullshit. Is capitalism causing an endless amount of drivel to be created? Yes. But if the alternative is no written art is available because it’s “unproductive” I don’t want to live in that world either.

We can buy rice from someone else with all the microchip money.

Sir everyone also switched to the microchip money, there is nothing to eat.

Nice try

I apologize to once again to keep my bullshit going but to your point about Dutch’s characterization (which I think nails him to a tee) I think he was written a faux (some kind of) radical intentionally but not because of some lack of theory (but this could still also be true) but for both finishing up Arthur’s arc when he realizes he’s full of shit and setting his character up to make sense retroactively for RDR1 as a villain for Marston.

Does the debtor thing change over the game? I remember that incident early on being what gets him really thinking about who he is.

Major spoilers for RDR2.

IMO don’t do any of the cornball shit like trying to sound sick if you aren’t, and do not ask or make it sound like there is any negotiation to be had.

Simply ask to speak to the person who needs to know and when they pick up just “Hey I’m not feeling well I will not be coming in today.” Just state it as fact.

Bethesda game quality is getting worse over time not better. Might as well slap another mod on top of Morrowind because thinking ES6 is gonna be good is pure cope.

Hello it’s me, an idiot.

I was literally describing myself, but hello coder unit 2711b.

I hate them both I think to myself, not because they are annoying but because they are both infinitely more interesting people than me. The final thought I have as I silence my phone before the standup meeting at my software job with 20 other white dudes who are interchangeable with myself.

My dad and my grandfather on my mother’s side are both poor as dirt but they can’t stop buying these tech pieces of garbage. They are both over 70 and are not tech bros.

They are both naive but you’re being a jagoff if you believe they deserve it.
