Having a Sky Daddy should immediately disqualify people from most adult privileges and responsibilities.

Get therapy. Grow up. Join the adult, responsible, reality-based community.

50+ Caucasian cis male multinational tech company middle manager here.

I speak Spanish on work zooms, when everyone else is in Mexico.

TBH I do it because I try to avoid being the asshole boss who everyone else has to accommodate, and instead be the pluralistic, humble boss that shows appropriate deference and respect to the employees that actually do the work.

Offense: "a bit rude"

I'm not going to berate anyone for doing the right thing a little after I personally did

You individually don't have to do everything. Drop the one least important holding from your life, and let the company know why you did it

Nobody has to die. A fuckton of us just have to do without Disney+ for a bit.

  • cancel Disney+, Hulu, ESPN
  • Perry Sook is responsible for Nexstar and cancelling Jimmy Kimmel. Nexstar's phone number is 972-373-8800
  • Cancel any planned trips to Disney’s theme parks. Halt any purchases of Disney memorabilia. Try to do these cancelations over the phone or chat. Tell them it’s because you don’t want any of your money going to the Disney corporation so long as Kimmel is off the air
  • If you live near a Disney Store or the Disney Parks or a Disney/ABC corporate office, organize a group of friends to picket in front of the building/property and encourage employees to consider calling in sick (don’t be mean to them though, they may be in a tough place)

Racial tensions are high

JFC you just made me realize ... what if Tyler was a POC? With Trump throwing gasoline on the fire like he is now? Shit, we possibly could be in low level race war territory at that point

^this

I am a tiny investor, not a pro, not really even that knowledgeable of an amateur. But for the few companies that I do have some investment in, yes actually I do keep an eye on how they are doing. Every quarter I can spend ~2 minutes checking if things look basically good and if things are going the way the management said.

When things are off, that's my opportunity to do a quick reality check whether this still is the best place for my money.

Reality checks. That's what Trump and Vance hate.

I hear they are going to release all the files on Jan 6, 2026 ... pass it on...

I keep being on the edge of cancelling my subscription. Then I realize my $4/mo[*] is helping fund NYT's legal defense.

  • Protip: Subscribe to NYT, then cancel your subscription. At the last last minute before you click the final 'Cancel', they will offer you $4/mo instead of $25/mo

“As of this time, there’s no evidence of foul play”

Yeah, no evidence at all. Not like racial tensions at their highest in 50+ years, political assassinations happening on college campuses, and a Southern university smack in the center of where KKK activity was an open secret just a generation ago.

Probably he slipped and fell, maybe he was learning Russian culture /s
