Huh, so you admit hockey is a game for the affluent/"affluent"? :thunk:

I thought everyone knew that, all sports at this point are for rich kids because poorer ones can't afford the coaching, training, etc

there's a baseball scam pipeline that takes kids who aren't any good and channels them through trainers and travel programs to get their parents' money

it's real hosed up

They're soon-to-be-chuds. Have no pity for them. I constantly mock Reagan and the wealthy around my conservative co-workers. gently caress 'em

i write financial software for a very large health insurance company. one of the functions of the software I work on is to compare dollar amounts we calculated to dollar amounts an accounts receivable system has calculated. Should they not match, the process stops while we determine why. This is basic functionality.

New management is monitoring the number of system processes that stop unexpectedly and holding that over managers' heads, so my management wants me to remove that functionality and just let the system proceed and send out incorrect data, because "abends are bad."

Technocrats with lovely metrics are going to ruin this country and everything in it

Getting insurance claims paid if you a normal doctor doing normal doctor things is also pain. It's almost as if the whole health care system does not really do what most believe it should.

I think he's confusing Napoleon I with Napoleon III. What a rube! Napoleon I lost his army in Russia, Napoleon III rebuilt Paris (and got his rear end kicked by the Germans, Russians and Mexicans).

nah a couple of douchebag libertarian tech bros wouldn't shut up about how socialism leads to work camps and I bit my tongue as hard as I could, even when they were plowing over the top of a teammate trying to change the discussion

I dunno why but when they started talking about Norway sending people to comfy apartment prisons I couldn't take it any more

Ask if they have ever visited Norway

You try asking better questions when you can just barely keep your head above the word slurry the most powerful man in the world is vomiting at you. I feel like that's what people don't get, that being in the same room as Trump is genuinely psyche-destroying for most people.

No, my beef with Maggie is my conviction that once a war starts we will find out we have no allies in the press

again

They'll be digging through garbage cans to find things to condemn anybody who doesn't support Strong Daddy's Glorious War and jerking themselves off on live TV as cruise missiles blow up mud huts full of kids
