Note to sell: keep my old car running as long as possible.

Imagine being one of the Miller children in 10 years when their Dad will be put to trial Nuremberg-stylee, and their parents will be remembered as the American Goebbels… I pity the poor kids.

Thanks!

Aah, the things Trump’s Gestapo wouldn’t do to distract from the Epstein files…

Boycott Intel products.

When you buy Intel products, American fascists earn money now.

Don’t fund fascism. Don’t buy Intel.

I had several careers doing vastly different jobs - both white and blue collars - in seven countries. I can tell you what I did to land my jobs, but bear in mind that I’m close to retirement, so what I did back then may not work anymore, as the job market was probably more more open when I started out.

I basically applied for jobs being brutally honest about what I could and couldn’t do, about my flaws and my strenghs. For instance, one of the things I always said during job interviews was that I’m terminally lazy, and that’s why they should hire me because I will work long hours to put something in place that will allow me to not do something repetitive more than once. Turns out, this line was both true and the thing that sold my application for most of my employers.

Also, when I changed jobs completely - for example when I went from computer programmer to CAD designer - I applied for a job at small companies that didn’t necessarily have the money to pay seasoned engineers and told them I was a fast learner, and proposed a big pay cut for 6 months until I proved that I could do the new job I had no experience in. A few key employers took a chance on me, allowing me to change career. And of course, once I had experience doing whatever new thing I set out to do, I could apply for another job in that field and claim experience.

Finally, I did not hesitate to find employers abroad. If I saw a company I liked that offered a job in another country, I applied, flew over to the interview, and if my application was selected, I relocated. I did that 6 times. It’s not for everybody, but if you’re mobile - or extremely mobile in my case - it increases your chances to find your dream job.

Of course, as the years passed, I accumulated quite a resume with an eclectic variety of jobs I held, and places I lived, and my resume spoke more and more for myself as a proof that I could do all those things, so I had less and less trouble finding jobs with employers that knew just by reading my resume that I can adapt to anything.

Would this work today? Maybe. I know the job market is a lot rougher than when I graduated. So don’t necessarily take what I did as something to follow verbatim today. But maybe some of the things I did would work for you too…

Watching documentaries about the SS, more likely.

I’ll have to reuse that one.

Her husband could start by not being a traitor and a hypocrit to his own country…

Another sign of America’s terminal decline.

The first gold-digger is busy hawking her memecoin and suing Hunter Biden for beaucoup bucks. She has no time for poor hungry oppressed brown-skinned children.

The best commentary I’ve ever heard on privacy was from the Girl in the movie Anon:

“It’s not that I have something to hide. I have nothing I want you to see.”

This to me encapsulates perfectly why everybody should want privacy.

I don’t know who Andrew Tate is, but the fact that only Elon Musk’s Twitter lets him have an account tells me everything I need to know about him.

I wanted to be a lot of things that I never became, but my younger self would approve of what I am now.

My life today is something young me would have wanted. That’s something.

What didn’t pan out is how I imagined the world would have progressed to: the world has regressed. Dramatically… It feels like someone stole my future. But I try to enjoy my latter years without thinking about it too much.

Are we sure the reporter heard Putin right?
Maybe he was saying “Give up, dumbass.” to Trump…

Why would anybody run Windows? Honestly: it’s officially a platform for corporate surveillance, ad delivery and now for ramming AI shit nobody wants down everybody’s throats. And you pay for the privilege.

There are alternatives to Windows. If you like corporate rape, Apple is the lesser evil. If you can’t stand corporate rape, Linux is very mature and very usable by your average Joe these days.

In other words, if you run Windows and you have problems, well sorry but half of the blame is on you.

Or corrupt orange fascists.

I’m close to retirement and my Mom regularly tells me I shouldn’t drink a beer after work so often because I might “turn into an alcoholic” 🙂 When I point out that I’ve been doing that for decades and I’m still not an alcoholic, she says “Oh yeah, you’re all grown up now I guess…”

You’ll always be your parents’ baby boy or girl. They’ll stop being overly protective and giving advice to you when they pass away, and then you’ll miss it.

Good! HOA’s need to die a fiery death.

The US is busy protecting domestic pedophiles. It has no time for foreign ones.
