Most jobs I've ever had haven't been about creating anything used directly by a normal person, they've been about optimizing things in ways that squeeze maximum profit for billionaires. I don't think I'm alone, especially in the developed world.

I suspect the world would be safer if everyone just let Trump think he won.

Most people aren't a short drive from the resort. It's staying at the resort, renting equipment, eating out, and daily lift passes that's the biggest expenses for most people. For locals all you need is your own equipment and a $350 annual ticket and it's basically free after that apart for parking.

Yeah for sure. Every Apple device I've had has been well built. Every interaction I've had with Apple Incorporated as a company has been a dystopian nightmare, and with the walled garden it's not possible to separate the product from the company. Therefore, it's a bad product.

Trumpists who've spent the last decade saying all kinds of insane bigoted shit online can now sell their Twitter accounts to prospective students for big money.

Apart from all the other concerns, given the way both ICE and Trump have behaved the last six months, it's not beneath them to grant you a visa first, let you enter the country, cancel your visa and lock you up.

Also it makes a hard turn into blatant ChatGPT-generated writing halfway through

If you wanted more terrorist attacks on your soil in order to justify suspending the constitution, this is exactly how you’d go about it.

those who haven’t watched much

I mean... I think I know what you're trying to say, but this seems to imply that you think someone who doesn't like a show should just carry on watching it anyway
