  • Lol I end up using my PTO as sick time except the now our policy only allows 4 sick days and we lost our point system and instead get fired after the 3rd occurrence. If I weren’t WFH I’d have to find another job because I can’t make it out the door most days. Also it still eats up my PTO to have an absence. I haven’t had an absence in almost 2 years and I’ve had to work with migraines and running to the bathroom. Next month I have scheduled most of it off but I’ll be recovering from work and sleeping lol. I don’t need this job as we don’t have kids so we’ve saved up plenty to live off of but the lack of health insurance would be problematic, though not sure that paying 400 a month for it right now isn’t actually worse for what I get. Good thing I’ve got dual citizenship and can escape to Europe anytime I want lol! Just not back to Italy… our Healthcare system may be free but the quality is atrocious. But if the US pulls its head out of its ass and decides to actually care to improve itself I’m all for it. As it is right now it’s just creating tired insane violent idiots.




  • That’s exactly what the government wants. They want you to eat each other not them and the corporations. Stop buying shit, stop paying for internet and cell service, stop buying cars etc. That’s the real control we have. Just be idle and watch them bail.

    Oh man. Lol to function and be independent I had to learn to ignore the fire but I think it’s starting to burn down my house. Problem is we have abysmal Healthcare, especially mental so my body and mind both have decided they’re retiring. Hrmm… at least theresmpizza,right?












  • Profit ruins everything. Heck I don’t even enjoy producing art or figurines or whatever if it’s for profit. I’d rather be part of something driven by passion and interest in doing something for others than profit. Infinite growth is a really bad model… if humans grew indefinitely it wild be catastrophic, and claustrophobic…
