US companies operate off of the Peter Principle, psychopathic willingness and ability to exploit others, and a merciless drive for profit.

What about 🥶 🍑

What…?

Radtrads are more than a wee bit insane

Someone please play yakety sax while this is happening

Or sad trombone

Or any other number of sonic shitposts

Carotid Artery Charlie: he lived by the shitpost; he died by the shitpost; his memory will be made fun of in shitposts.

A lot of states have very strict assault laws. For instance, in MA, Assault with a Dangerous Weapon can be brought against a person if they hit, throw, or spray pretty much any object or substance, including self-defense things like pepper spray.

Put another way: I am doing a good bit worse than my dad was at my age, despite being a pretty solid and experienced software engineer, with an EECS degree, and a lot of devops and system design experience.

This is the collapse of the American social contract. Even people like me who are ostensibly in “great” jobs are treated like code monkeys, and adjusted for inflation, it’s flat or worse than 30-35 years ago. We are doing worse than the generation before us. The American Dream is a nightmare.
