Started a new job a few months ago after working remotely since Covid. I'm back in the office, which to my surprise I actually enjoy, but only because I have my own office and my role doesn't require much interaction with others.

However, my office is close to the offices of several women and I was quickly reminded how much time women waste. They have hours long discussions about anything and everything besides actual work. They take multiple walks throughout the day that last 30-40 minutes.

I'd estimate that of the 8 hours they spend in the office, maybe 90 minutes of that time is spent on actual working.

I don't pay their salaries so it's whatever, but holy shit it's almost impressive how much time they waste talking about their weekend, planning their next vacation, etc. Just totally fucking useless.

Mexicans are the fucking worst when it comes to watching YouTube without headphones, or talking on the phone in a restaurant on speakerphone.

I rarely eat out these days but sometimes I grab food to go from a place near my office and 8/10 times there's some fat brown piece of shit on his phone just fucking blaring YouTube for all to hear. Today it was a phone call on speakerphone with the volume all the way up. I'm talking parody levels that made me wonder if it was a prank.

I was in and out quickly so didn't bother saying anything and even so what's the point? They aren't intelligent enough to understand and change their ways. My city is 90% white but they still find a way to fuck things up. God help future generations because America's fate is sealed.

Anyone heard of this? Just saw a commercial to sToP jEwiSh haTe, where they claim that 1 in 3 Jewish Americans were subjected to hate last year. It's obviously bullshit, but nonetheless they claim it's true and ask that we all show our support by displaying a blue square social media.

I didn't catch the org behind it, but chances are we're paying for it with our tax dollars.

Will it catch on? No, because everyone (besides some boomers) is sick of Israel's shit. I expect them to do some insane things over the next decade because of the collapse of support. Buckle up.

We've all known that it has been happening for decades, but it hits different when you're on the inside and have first-hand knowledge of their incompetence.

I know an HR Director who earns nearly $200k annually and can't type a paragraph without multiple obvious typos. She brings nothing to the table beyond filling a seat. All the heavy lifting is done by employment lawyers. Her and her ilk produce lame happy hour games and other bullshit that any 6th grader could match.

I've been with smaller company for quite a while now, but we got acquired and now I'm seeing the inside of one of the tech giants. It's even worse than I thought.

Every call has 12+ women doing the work of 2 competent men.

I'm exiting soon enough, and I'm not in HR so it doesn't impact me directly. It's just frustrating on a primal level almost. These worthless cunts walk around thinking they're doing something great. I feel really bad for Gen Z men. Pick a random dude off the street and he could step into these $200k HR roles tomorrow and crush it, but they'll never get the chance because they have a penis.

If I were starting my career today I think I'd say I'm trans because you can't beat this level of discrimination. You can start your own thing or find a small firm who isn't big enough to play the DEI game yet. But if you apply to a large corporation and you're a white man? Don't bother unless you say you're trans.

Just wanted to rant a bit. I know this isn't news to anyone here.

The past few years, I've been donating to a charity that focuses on helping children who have cancer. I did a fair amount of research and feel confident that they use the funds better than most charities.

I also look around for local charities and donate a bit for things like sports equipment and whatnot.

Just thought I'd see what others are doing and maybe change it up this year.

We know they take every issue and pretend it's the end of democracy, but this is especially unhinged. It's a fucking renovation project on part of the White House and yet they're reacting as if Trump dropped a nuke on D.C.

Saying things like, "This is a desecration that strikes at the soul of our nation" and even somehow claiming it's an insult to the military?? What the fuck lmao

And it isn't just one or two libs. The marching orders clearly went out because everyone is commenting on this.

The whole thing is funded privately so they can't even claim it's a waste of taxpayer money. They're just showing pictures of the first stage of the project and pretending that it won't be built into something newer and better. "This is what you'd expect to see if we were attacked by a hostile foreign enemy."

Just completely unhinged stuff.

The company I've been working at was acquired recently and I'll be departing sometime next year.

I'm now in a position where I can pretty much do anything I want as long as I cover my monthly expenses. I live a simple life and don't waste money on new cars and whatnot, so I don't need to earn all that much to accomplish that.

With what I have saved (invested), I could even afford to go backwards for a few years if I had to. I see people like Sargon risking a lot to speak out about what's happening, and he's doing that while living in the UK and having a family.

Sometimes I think I should dedicate the rest of my working life to doing something similar. Not in an attempt to get rich and famous, but to feel like I gave my all to fight back against the woke borg that's devouring the west. When I'm on my death bed and the UK is 60% Muslim, I'd like to at least know I did something more than shitpost online.

The two things that come to mind are starting a YT channel where I do the same thing that millions of others are doing (cover mostly political topics and attempt to reach normies), or running for some sort of local office.

The former is far more appealing than the latter for obvious reasons, but I think it's easy to argue that the local politics option gives me a better chance to make a real impact. The YT option seems futile with how many people are already doing it, but if ten people like me took the leap every week, over time that could make a difference in some way? Maybe.

I'm not looking for anything particular out of this thread. Just curious to hear some opinions and maybe someone has a suggestion.

For many years now, the UK courts have been giving preferential treatment to everyone except white men.

The release of two-tier treatment in black and white text appeared to make it official, but Kier Starmer "saves the day" by claiming they will fast track legislation to overturn the new guidelines.

This is starting to smell like a psy-op to squash the "two-tier Kier" meme.

The courts will continue to give special treatment to muh noble savages and nothing is actually better for white Brits.

If the next 20 years play out anywhere close to how the market has performed over the previous 20 years, I'll be golden.

The problem is that I have very little faith in the system. Globalists are getting desperate, and we know they're willing to burn everything down if they think they'll rule over what's left.

Obviously I can't just stick my money in a mattress because inflation would kill me. I own gold and BTC (combined about 10% of the total), but otherwise it's mostly in VOO with sprinklings in individual stocks.

I feel like my only real option is to let it ride and hope I can retire before the collapse. Even if the market only slightly beats inflation I'll still be set.

Anyone disagree and think there's a better option?

I'm reading a book about the rise of Teddy Roosevelt. Not because I'm interested in him specifically. I just enjoy reading these types of books from time to time.

I forget the exact year this incident happened, but it would have been late 1800's.

Roosevelt is in Chicago and iirc he was involved in discussions for who would be the next Republican nomination for Governor.

Fairly late in the discussions, Roosevelt suggests nominating a black man. Why? Because he's black, obviously.

It got me thinking, who was the first DEI hire in the United States? I'm sure this wasn't the first. (although the black guy didn't get the nomination in this case)

I tried multiple browsers and get the message, "Account suspended, please contact your hosting provider for more information"

Trudeau strikes back?

I'm not Canadian but I like to keep up with them via FC.

I have a free Amazon prime account and I sift through mounds of shit to watch old westerns and whatnot. I just opened the home page and I see they're advertising a new episode of 'The Boys' coming this Thursday.

What do they show to entice viewers to watch it? Two women. A redhead and a dyke looking black chick with braids.

Fucking lol not even a show that's explicity called 'The Boys' is immune. I know this isn't surprising in the slightest and just because a show is called the boys doesn't mean it's only dudes. But still I got a good chuckle when I saw it.

I watched season one and thought it was okay considering how low my expectations were. Then I heard about season two and never even gave it a chance.

Pretend you have one hour to convince a random normie that the mainstream media is propaganda rather than a collection of well-meaning, objective journalists who sometimes get it wrong but overall try to deliver fair and accurate reporting.

If you fail, you die.

What's your approach?

It's a stupid hypothetical for several reasons but I'm very interested in this topic and I'm curious to hear your thoughts, so I'll ask for a pass on the overly dramatic scenario.

I'm guessing the most common response will be, "It won't work no matter what you do", and fwiw I think that's correct. But for the small group who can be reasoned with, what do you think is the optimal approach?

I spent the first 35+ years of my life hearing about how great this movie is, and I finally get around to watching it and now I know why.

It isn't because it's a good movie. It's because it has a tranny in it. Or maybe they're just gay, or a gay cross dresser? idk because I half tuned it out by then and started playing video games while I watched out of the corner of my eye.

I woke up and checked here like most days and all the post titles are neon blue? It's ugly as hell. I also have to tap "yes" after tapping "hide"? Previously it was one-tap to hide.

Does anyone know of a way to change it back?

I messed around in settings but no luck.

We spoke about typical family shit for 30 minutes, and then he asked me if I'm following the Trump indictments and what I think about it.

I forget my exact phrasing, but I basically told him I think it's a travesty that makes a mockery of our justice system.

He was taken aback and said he thinks it's a great thing and has been a long time coming. He truly believes that Trump tried to take over the government by ignoring the 2020 election results.

I asked what Trump did specifically. He said, "Trump filed a bunch of court cases and lost every single one."

I said that's sort of true but most cases weren't even heard so the evidence couldn't even be presented, but regardless there's nothing illegal about challenging election results through the courts. I then pointed out that Trump left office right on schedule. I also pointed out all the election results that Democrats have claimed (and still are claiming) were fraudulent.

So again I asked, what specifically did Trump do that constitutes trying to take over the government? And why is it a crime for Trump to question election results but not Hillary or that fatass from Georgia?

Crickets on that, so he shifted gears to the classified document case.

I told him that case is a complete joke. Trump didn't do anything that every past president hasn't also done with their documents. I pointed out that Biden had thousands of classified documents in his fucking garage, and he didn't even have the power to declassify, so why aren't your calling for Biden to be prosecuted??

He said that's different. I asked how. He couldn't even muster a pathetic reason and told me he doesn't think it's productive to continued the conversation because we aren't going to agree.

I said you're the one who brought it up and I'm fucking sick of people claiming all these wild things about Trump without being able to back it up and then saying they don't want to talk about it.

I ranted for a good long while lol, stopping every so often to ask him for specifics on this or that (all related to his original claims) and each time he just remained silent, so then I'd start ranting again. I reminded him that Hillary Clinton was caught red-handed using a private email server and she sent and receive classified documents, and that she destroyed evidence and laughed about it.

I said, "You're telling me if Trump were caught using a private server and classified material was involved, you wouldn't want him prosecuted??"

He said "I'm not sure." I said give me a fucking break, you know damn well you'd cheer on his prosecution if that happened. The media would claim he endangered every American and you'd be there nodding along.

At some point, he referenced Russia helping Trump in the 2016 election via Facebook. I asked him to explain what they did. He couldn't. I said why are you going around making claims about something you can't even describe?? Crickets.

I asked if he knew the Steele dossier originated from the Clinton campaign. Crickets.

It went on like this for another 30 minutes or so. He couldn't provide specifics about anything. I kept pressing him. He kept saying this isn't productive. I said yeah no shit because all you can do is regurgitate claims you've heard from biased sources.

I could have handled it better in some ways but I don't regret what I said. I'm so fucking tired of otherwise smart people being completely clueless about important issues that THEY bring up and claim to be knowledgeable about.

That's about it. Not all that interesting but it's slow around here so I thought I'd share.

Anyone else get into it with family members about politics lately?

Fraiser and that Chucky show.

Roughly five minutes into both we find out the sons are gay. And in Chucky the Dad is openly homophobic lol

I knew it was unlikely that I'd get into either show, but I thought I'd last longer than 5 minutes.

Not a very interesting post I know but whatever. Fraiser is one of my favorite sit-coms and it's too bad they couldn't do a decent follow up. (though they probably never should have tried)

Had a nice fwb situation for a few years but that's over now, so against my better judgement I hopped back into the online dating scene; and holy shit there are so many women who straight up say they expect a man to go to therapy.

It's not like I haven't seen this before, but nothing to this degree. I see it all the damn time now.

Therapy might have some worth in cases for people with actual mental issues, but the idea that most people should not only see a therapist but regularly see a therapist is fucking absurd.

Not sure if anyone else has seen the same. It's pretty clear that continual therapy is fully entrenched as a key component of the religion of woke.

Person A: I support high levels of immigration.

Person B: Weren't you complaining about wages being too low? High levels of immigration directly impact wage growth in a negative way.

Person A: Yeah, but we don't have enough people to care for and replace baby boomers, so we need those immigrants.

Besides telling boomers to get rekt, what's your initial response?

Obviously, it's hypocritical to dissuade citizens from having children, and then turning around and saying we don't have enough people so we need more immigrants.

But I feel like I'm missing something here and can't quite put my finger on it.

It has been down all day. I only see "Freecanada.win" written at the top of the page, but there are no posts or anything.

Did PM Blackface send in the goons to take it offline for muh hate speech?

Or maybe they're doing maintenence?

I like keeping tabs on our Canada bros and hoping it'll be back up soon.

I'm working on a skit of sorts that mocks all the DIE nonsense that has exploded into the mainstream these past few years, and it just hit me that laziness will eventually be classified as a disease similar to what happened with addiction.

So when you ask why your lazy brother who sleeps until 4pm each day and doesn't work should have the same things that a 90hr per week truck driver has, they'll claim the "The Science" is clear. Your brother is a lazy piece of shit through no fault of his own. He was born with a disease and there's nothing he can do about it!

I know this isn't terribly interesting, and this is already sort of happening with disability cons, but does anyone have any other predictions for the crazy things we'll see from field of psychiatry in the coming years?
