The British empire solved this problem a long time ago. just select a minority group and put them in charge of the majority, the minority will oppress the poo poo out of them for their own survival, and can never step down because they would get wiped out in retribution. Then when you've bled the area dry, just leave and let everyone too poor to do the same deal with the fallout. Colonialism Classic is going to be the new hotness.

Why did "side hustle" replace the term "second job" or "business owner"? Google's been sending me a lot of articles to hate read recently with headlines like "How I make $10k a month on my side hustles" And it's always someone who started out doing like financial advising as a second job managed to turn it into an actual full time business. That's not a side hustle, that's your actual job at that point

Biplane posted:What planning? The hyper rich are literally the most incompetent people on the planet. The only reason they're still on top is the system, whose sole purpose is to grow these peoples number, is basically automated at this point. Generally the way this works is they hire strategists and pay them enough that they're no longer self-identifying as part of the rabble Or they could just pray to whatever forgotten chaos god birthed Henry Kissinger I guess

I'm guessing it's a form of therapy, What Hell of a Way to Die pod did an episode recently about veteran therapy using D&D, this might be something similar

Yeah, he has a good and relatable story about why people at a certain age think signing up for the military is the correct life choice, and how it goes on to ruin them. Edit: this is a weird channel. People in VR chat telling frank stories about messed up poo poo. Skippy McPants has issued a correction as of 07:10 on Jan 3, 2021 |

Roommate came in earlier and wanted to talk about her past trauma and what I thought she should do about it (seek therapy etc) and I ask if this was brought on by anything and she's like "oh I just saw a video of some military guy talking about his PTSD" and I'm like "was it Anakin Skywalker" and she goes "... yyyep" lmao

Len posted:Why did "side hustle" replace the term "second job" or "business owner"? those types of articles are generally aimed at people who are in the top 20% or so of incomes but don't have the connections necessary to climb any further up the class ladder if left to their own devices, they might realize that class mobility is a myth, that extreme wealth is never earned, and that they're never gonna be billionaires no matter how long they defend the current system so they need to be lured into thinking they can keep climbing if they just work a little harder and manage their money a little smarter. which mostly just amounts to basic financial literacy advice, except dressed up in a different language so the targets don't realize it's essentially the same advice given to poor people

dilbert is an engineer whose tie is always curled upwards. You would think an engineer could fix such a problem, imo.
