I want to remind the #usfederalgovernment, #corporations, #nonprofitorgs and any other sort of business in the #worldeconomy that #shortstaffing or #leanstaffing is really bad for #employeesatisfaction, #consumersatisfaction and of course #safetyandregulation. Stingy oligarchs like it, and they […]

Merry Christmas. I'm still bewildered #clarkgriswold is a #chemist as revealed in #nationallampoonschristmasvacation. Would they ever make a movie about Clark in grad school? Or would #nationallampoon magazine write an experiment or thesis in his voice? Are there any scientists so dopey? […]

Hey, I have some advice that I hope more people will take: don't go on an #airplane or #interstate #train like #amtrak or use the big #highway for #Christmas. You don't *have* to see that far away relative on the 25th. You can wait a few weeks later, or maybe see them on another, less dense […]

I’m a Luce Mass volunteer dispatcher. I was not involved in a popular nativity scene but I approve of it.

Me (or someone like me) in a #commentsection: I don't like #sjp or #jvp, or #unrwa or some other organization which has been accused of offensive, inflammatory language, vandalism, hostility, intimidation, hiring people who work another job with #hamas, etc. [These other orgs] are better in […]

Problem: You have your printer listed twice for some reason, only one of them works, and you can never remember which one
Solution: Delete both and re-add the printer
Results: You have three copies of your printer listed

You know, I found out a few weeks ago I'm #allergic to #gold. I'll still wear it because all my stuff is #10k and #14k and alloys bother me less, and #24k is hardly sold anymore nowadays. I'm pretty sure I became allergic after looking at photos of how #donaldtrump has decorated the #whitehouse […]

A little data curiosity and math literacy needed by #journalist folks reporting on this story
The 186k fraud number came from 29 states, how accurate and consistent was the data collection methodology?
Given there are 42 million folks receiving #snap, purported fraud of less than 0.05% is […]

It must be magnificent to be these billionaires and foreign countries, all of whom secretly scorn Trump, giving him lavish but vulgar gifts that he doesn’t understand are elaborate expressions of their contempt for him, his taste, his principles, and his self-awareness.

Marjorie Taylor Greene and Donald Trump's falling out should be all the evidence you need that conservatives are fundamentally self-serving and hold no sincere convictions beyond self-interest.

The institutional church is too mean to #witches. #witchcraft is really subjective and their #trials are #sexism. Who are male priests to say a #spell for #worldpeace or a #hex on #corruption does not involve #christ's intercession? It's just about framing. #women especially enjoy the framing of […]

Okay, these "#nov1st is time to celebrate #christmas" posts are really fricking cruel and #tonedeaf more than usual as so many people can't get #snap, #healthcare, #wic #prescriptions and other benefits. So is it okay to stress out poor people? Or are these posts not talking to poor people? Do […]

Hey #makeup, #skincare, and #Candy companies, how about you make some #lentcalendars instead of #AdventCalendars? Since #lent is more about #asceticism, the calendars could have some restraint to them, making them less indulgent than #Advent. Like the products might be #vegan, #sugarfree […]

Stop pretending you didn't see what actually happened on live television. Who cares if it happened a year ago, it's still happening. Fuck you.

#traviskelce is a bad romantic partner who has turned #taylorswift into an overcompensating pervert. Despite how gushy or lusty she might sing of him, he still neglects to publicly defend her from the insults of #donaldtrump or #harrisonbutker. He also assaulted his boss, #andyreid several times […]
