There is no part of this diatribe that is not amazing or 100% true.

SAY IT AGAIN FOR ALL TO HEAR

The line I saw a while ago that seems relevant:  “There is no such thing as unskilled labor, only undervalued skills.”

I can’t find a counterexample.

As someone that’s worked several years in retail I can confirm this is beyond true and accurate.

every friend i know in white collar jobs just sits on their asses and watches netflix at works and me and my blue collar friends bust our fucking asses for peanuts

I worked retail for 9 years, and when I left I was a merchandise manager who got paid $12.50 and hour. That’s right, I was a manager who got paid what amounts to $22,000-24,000 for the year. That’s below the poverty line.

I would keep my phone on me to count my steps, and routinely would get between 11,000-13,000 steps in an 8 hour shift.

The minimum wage needs an increase bad. That is all

Emergent behavior at its finest! XD

“And now we would like to demonstrate Watson, the latest in artificial intelligence. How are you, Watson?”

“Fuck off, dickass.”

So what? Let the machine swear. If you want it to be as intelligent as possible, it should know as much as it can.
Fuck’s sake, even AI is sheltered.

*pounding on table* LET THE ROBOT SWEAR! LET THE ROBOT SWEAR!

Watson started saying “bullshit” instead of “false”

…which is one of my favorite things that has ever happened.

Why does it have to be serious… If it wants to curse, let it!

this is a PSA

  • depression does not vanish just because your life is technically ‘going well’
  • depression does not vanish just because good things are happening to/around you
  • depression does not vanish just because you’re surrounded by people who love you
  • depression is an unconditional illness that comes and goes as it pleases, regardless of what might be happening in your life
