Can’t imagine what it must take for Syria to be a better option.
Thanks that’s actually useful to know. Been through a lot of restructures, and obviously there’s a lot of turnover during those times, but people have always left on their own terms.
This is a new one for me.
Well I survived the redundancies but some good work friends haven’t. I’m going to be seriously f’d off if the company is cruel enough to let them go this side of Christmas.
Yes, austerity during a recession does generally extend and heighten the recession. John Maynard Keynes must be rolling in his grave.
I really hope you’re right, and some of their rushed decisions make it seem like they think the same, but National is still polling 10% higher than Labour.
Been off on stress leave the last couple of days but I’m lucky to have an extremely supportive manager. They let me take the days off without using annual or sick leave. Also found a good psychotherapist through work’s EAP services which has helped.
Not just the US. Can’t access it from NZ either.
I definitely prefer the vibe of lemmy but there’s still communities I visit on Reddit for reviews and discussions about more niche topics.
Just buy a Hugo Boss suit circa 1930s. That’s who designed the nazi uniforms.
“Thanks, I hate it” is the phrase you’re looking for.
I was extremely excited by the recent news that Control was going to be adapted into film and or TV. This could be a massive risk to that going ahead.
He had a portable tv and was watching himself as he said it in the debate.
Trumpception.
Fishy Joe’s in “The problem with Popplers” iirc.
Sounds a lot like war crimes.

I hate working at the best of times so this is really making me want to call in sick for the rest of the week.
Hydro homie respect
Yeah and Flava Flav supporting the women’s waterpolo team after his domestic abuse charges is also pretty wild.

If you want to dive even further into why the foundations of modern macroeconomics are bunk, then I can also recommend reading Debunking Economics by Steve Keen.
I’m also a life long halo fan. However I came to terms a long time ago with the fact that the media I love will change over time.
Would I prefer that Star Wars had stuck to Admiral Thrawn being the big bad post Return of the Jedi? Absolutely, but I didn’t throw a fit when the sequel trilogy retconned all the books I read in the 90s. I was more happy to get new media after so long and despite the movies being awful we at least got some decent side projects like Andor and Rogue One.
Edit: Sorry, to be clear, I’m not saying you are throwing a fit, I just remember all the toxic wailing and nashing of teeth on the Halo subreddit. The first season was bad television regardless of whether it was Halo or not.
Only if I’m getting f’d by Microsoft.
/I use Arch btw
