Nearly everyone who’s ever worked with McMahon agrees that he’s a piece of shit human being, so it wouldn’t surprise me if every bit of this is true.

With that said, nothing’s going to happen to him. Robert Kraft was caught on camera partaking in a sex trafficker’s ring and the courts suppressed it. He still sits pretty in his owners box every Sunday and has his praises sung by the NFL.

Social media programming is pretty effective.

The major social media platforms are programmed to simultaneously outrage you and convince you that everything you think is correct, no matter how outlandish or stupid it is.

And it works. Keeps your eyes glued to stupid ads.

For my part, I lost hope in it all when my loving, wonderful preschool teacher started posting about how unfairly Trump was being treated.

Jesus, didn’t need the photo.

Suffice it to say, I would really enjoy reading his obituary. Also, shouldn’t call him a hunter. Hunter safety courses explicitly teach to minimize pain and suffering and to abide by the law, which this fat piece of trash purposefully did not do.

The irony is that, for the job I have now (which I LOVE!) I spent the interview talking about the databases and resources I’d created in the former shit job, and that work got me hired. My new employers treat me like absolute gold.

It’s astonishing.

The capitalists know full well we’re more productive working remotely, but their need for control has proven to be stronger than their insatiable greed anyway.

I mean, I get your sarcasm, but they literally are acting like this because of their oppression.

They don’t have a military. They’re blockaded. Their citizens are killed at will by the IDF without any repercussions. Hell, Israel is now killing reporters with impunity who try to make light of it.

Palestinians have been living under an apartheid regime perpetrated by Israel for generations, and yes, that kind of powerlessness will result in expressions of unbridled violence and rage such as this one.

And it’s never going to end.

Still a tragedy, though, no doubt. It’s always been the peasants who suffer so the rich people can have their wars.

I spent five figures paying mine off two years ago.

Still 100% support my tax dollars paying for people’s college. In fact, I’d love that instead of the nine wars my tax dollars are paying for instead.

“The purpose is not solely religious,” Sen. Jay Morris, R-West Monroe, told the Senate. Rather, it is the Ten Commandments’ "historical significance, which is simply one of many documents that display the history of our country and foundation of our legal system.”

Only two of them are actually law: Thou shalt not murder and thou shalt not steal.

This is all about religion, and they’re going to get away with it. We’d be better off if our legal codes were based on the seven tenets instead.

It’s kind of nice when people reveal themselves to be insufferable douchebags at the outset rather than wasting your time.

I can.

I was stuck in a job I hated for over a decade, and not only that, I was the guy on the team doing the shit jobs no one else would do because many of the older, tenured people didn’t want to work weekend hours ever.

I remember the slight panic in my boss’s eyes when I put in my two weeks, but it wasn’t half as sweet as my former coworker’s panicking when they realized that they’d have to figure out how to do my job without my help. One even had the balls to say something to me about selfishness.

You see, they’d also declined my offer to train them on the functions I was involved in and the items I created.

Glorious.
