Chuck the cuck: watching Americans getting f'd by Trump and Republicans must be fun for Chuck and the 8 traitorous Dem Senators. It must be nice to have no spine, no conscience, and no soul.

Trump and Co are about to turn the US into a steaming pile of dog shit, and fittingly, Patone has given us a fancy color that is basically "shit brown". Welcome to 'Merica! 🤦♂️
Pantone has announced its 2025 color of the year: Mocha Mousse. In an oversaturated, digital world, does it stand a chance at defining next year? Our reporters and editors sat down to debate.
Pantone’s 2025 Color of the Year Is Mocha Mousse
Is this shade of dusty brown a repudiation of “Brat” green?

How can a company worth $3.4 trillion have utterly incompetent customer service reps? Does Tim Cook hate his employees as much as Jeff Bezos hates his? Apple cares more about the Benjamins than its customers and employees.

I've said this before but I'm saying it again: when you're looking at your job, you should have:
- Good pay
- Good culture
- Good growth opportunities
If you have 2/3, it's not too bad, but 0 or 1/3, you might want to question why you're still at that job.
