Is it a bullshit job or is it just a job you didn't realize someone did because you don't recognize the layers of invisible labor that exist in the world?

Bullshit Jobs is really two types of Gender: -jobs typically held by women are Bullshit Jobs -jobs that don't give me masculine fulfillment are Bullshit Jobs.

It is so weird to realize that a good portion of the country is motivated by the simple goal of making me sad.

I'm sorry. They named their company Hindenburg?

Too bad all my money is tied up in med beds.

I understand why people do this because, like, I think being human is hard and painful and sometimes what we really want is to just be an object. I remember in a previous relationship wanting to be nothing more than a doll that existed for him, just to make him happy, and then was put away.

Me, upon finding out that Banksy has been "unmasked". "Is he single? Is he cute?" Damn, I'm a lonely weirdo.

It is becoming clear when these guys talk about jobs held by “highly educated females” they are specifically thinking about the highly educated females they interact with who work in communications, HR, legal, and compliance. AKA those bitches who say no to my cool idea.

Trump seems pretty calm about the fact that we apparently now have zombies.

What in the "I C

I go to a special coffee place that is nothing but fancy coffee drinks. It has a punny name. They have bespoke drinks each day with names often based on stuff like Taylor Swift or Sabrina Carpenter songs. The line is around the building. It is almost all women. It is a communal experience.

Sci-fi story where we dump a ton of money into space exploration and make contact with an alien planet and then immediately try to get them to invest in crypto because instead of letting the pyramid scheme collapse we needed to find new marks.

Looking at gas prices and knowing that "living in a shitty apartment 10 minutes walk from work" is a winning move.

Just in time for Spring Break vacations!

"may or may not have gained consciousness" is true of every object on earth since those are the only two options. Breaking: my pen may or may not have gained consciousness.

Evangelicals are probably underrepresented in the legal field for the same reasons the Jewish and Catholic faiths are overrepresented: the religious tradition of the latter involves long disagreements about small word choices while the former is about "because God said so."

The experience of being general counsel for any organization is mostly just people calling you up to ask if they can do the dumbest fucking thing you've ever heard, you telling them no, and them telling you, actually, they already did it last week.

Navel Intelligence on one side. Mob connected millionaire failson on the other.

Whether or not you’re running for Congress and trying to seem rugged (and you probably should run, because, look who’s out there) what did your grandpas do for a living?

Yeah, sure, Vogue is Mein Kampf, GQ is Triumph of the Will, Sassy is Der Giftpilz. Whatever.

I'm a lawyer so I'm good at deciphering bullshit so... "more than 9,000 American's have safely returned home from the Middle East". That is going to be everyone who got on their scheduled or rescheduled flight since Saturday. Note, they don't say "because of the US" just that many people are back!

And we shall dub it The Underground Uber!

I was not raised in any religion (Catholic Dad/Baptist Mom and they could never agree on how to raise us) but I find it so silly that the most powerful sect of Christianity currently in this country believes that God wants to return to Earth, but he can't because we haven't triggered his trap card.

Star Wars prequels ass dialoge.

I am so wildly depressed by the world and unable to process it so my brain helpfully keeps being like "do you want to think about when you are old and unable to care for yourself and will be all alone because you have failed in finding a mate and having children?" No brain, that isn't helping.

Look, it just makes sense to have these meetings at Mar-a-Largo because if there if they need to pull classified files they are so close.

I think a lot of anger on the left and right is caused by people who believe in some aspect of a "just world fallacy". That there exists a simple hack that will allow everything to be good and perfect but the people in charge just refuse to push the "fix it" button.

My guess is that you are going to see some...interesting ballot initiatives dive in at the last moment to try and drive Republican voters.

When my youngest brother was diagnosed with autism it was devastating to my family in the sense that it led to five other family members to be diagnosed with autism because "well, X does the same thing and they're not autistic" (surprise they were)

You have to understand that he wants his kids to get these disorders so they can survive them, thus proving their worthiness. It is the same as the freebirth movement that abandons all prenatal care in favor of birthing alone at home so that they can prove they can do it.

I was interviewing for a government affairs job for a grocery chain years ago and, since I am an idiot, I started asking them about their decision to come out strongly against an increase to the minimum wage. They were already paying above what the increase would be...why against it.

We are at the point in the busy work season where I start looking up if there are any inpatient hospitals where I can take my cats.

The reason WHY OpenAI didn't turn over the info was not anything to do with privacy or some higher purpose. It is because they (probably) have dumb lawyers who wanted to prevent them from creating a duty to turn over this type of information in the future.

Like, at some point, you have to wonder if BBC and the BAFTAS kept it in because they wanted something that could go viral and get eyes on what would be an otherwise normal award show. They removed a reference to "Free Palestine" from a speech, but kept this in.

I'm convinced that the anger a lot of journalists have towards Stancil is the fact that the guy gets a lot of attention on the internet and that makes them angry because they want attention on the internet. (Or, they need attention on the internet, it is literally the metric for their job).

I'd say that all he knows about government he learned from Mr. Smith goes to Washington, but he has never seen that movie. He's a man who famously had his son stand next to the VCR to FF Bloodsport to skip the "boring" parts.

You'd think this is a big deal and that average people would be furious (they would if it was Clinton or Obama) but they won't care because 1) Right Wing Media has convinced people that Obama and Clinton DID do stuff like this and 2) they like that "their guys" are ripping off "the man".

RIP Robert Duvall. Rambling Rose was filmed at the house of one of my distant cousins and apparently the film crew fucked up the grass so my Grandpa yelled at Robert Duvall and it all got fixed. (This is a different Grandpa than the one who got yelled at by Harrison Ford)

Wake up babe, a new tort law hypo just dropped.

"I need AI to make art, human art is only for the rich and privileged-"

It is fun sometimes to take lies at face value. For example, it would be a scandal if a random staffer has access to post anything they want on the President's social media, it is basically giving the access to the biggest loudspeaker on the planet, and would be ripe for potential abuse.

Left of Clinton on Healthcare and his plan was "repeal the ACA and make insurance premiums tax deductible."

If that name is familiar to you, this is the woman who was learning dance at Julliard and dreamed of being a ballerina but instead ended up married to this rich guy and running a Trad Wife content farm. www.thetimes.com/magazines/th...

If you are a person who is horrified by the idea that you are going to "die out of the gene pool" then 1) become a egg or sperm donor 2) get real invested in helping your siblings/cousins/family being able to have and raise healthy kids.

I think her Mom accidentally went to a screening of Rocky Horror.

This is what I've never gotten about America First weirdos...isn't it COOLER to have a country made up of people who want to come here. I am American because my parents were born here. As were their parents. It was a happenstance of fate. Life plays out differently and I'm Polish or French.

Lol.

When I was a teenager I got a lot of weird job offers and "mentorship" opportunities from men who met me for five seconds but could "tell that I was special." I never took any of them because, honestly, I had social anxiety. But I now wonder how much of that anxiety was just protection.

It brings me no pleasure to note that Epstein uses the Oxford Comma.
