No shit. You’re superheating metals and plastic and all kinds of nasty shit in there. Who in the hell ever would have thought this was a good idea.

People vape and use all kinds of new devices - that they then breathe into their lungs.

I’m old school and still smoke joints the natural way.

Seriously. Talk about a piece of shit who had too much time on this Earth.

Like not hyperbole. Like an actual Nazi. His ancestors must be so proud of him.

He meant to say real Americans.

It’s a game to them that doesn’t take into consideration any human element.

It’s like the sociopathic villains in Trading Places betting a dollar on whether or not Valentine would succeed. They don’t really give a shit. It’s all for the game that might result in throwing more money on their pile.

“Ruh-roh, Raggy!”

It’s okay. All the people that you laid off to replace with AI are only going to charge 3x their previous rate to fix your arrogant fuck up so it shouldn’t be too bad!

Not a huge fan but glad to see he’s making waves against MAGA.

Keep churning out the CO2 and the plastic. All that matters is the next quarterly earnings report and shareholder satisfaction.

easier to manipulate than a child.

Putin sure knows it.

So red State armies are literally invading blue States and districts.

I got to hand it to him though. It does take skill to spew such contemptible hypocritical bullshit with a straight face.

But I guess for sociopaths that’s just second nature.

Star Trek branded clothing excluded.

I can’t believe people actually pay for branded clothing. I avoid branded clothing like the plague. If companies like Nike actually want someone to walk around plastered with their brand on them they should be paying them.

But companies have convinced people to pay enormous amounts of money to wear their brand as a “style” or as “self-expression”. Just wow.

That’s your guy MAGA! Just absolutely pathetic.

Nazi showing his true colors.

They are recreating the ghettos of Poland during the Nazi occupation, like the Warsaw ghetto.

I don’t doubt that that’s a problem either in some of those small businesses.

I have a great electrician that I call all the time. He’s probably in his late 60s. It’s definitely more of a rough and tumble work environment than IT work, for sure, but he’s a good guy and he pays his people well and he charges me an arm and a leg.

But we talk about it and he tells me about how the same work he would have charged a quarter the price just 10 years ago. And honestly, he’s one of the more affordable ones.

So it definitely seems like the trades is the place to be these days with so few good ones around. But yeah you have to pick and choose who’s mentoring you.

A weak man’s idea of a strong man.

A poor man’s idea of a rich man.

An idiot’s idea of a smart man.

Exactly this.

Absolutely. This is a huge problem and I’ve read about this very problem from a number of sources. This will have a huge impact on engineering and information work.

Interestingly enough, A similar shortage occurred in the trades when information work was up and coming and the trades were shunned as a career path for many. Now we don’t have enough plumbers and electricians. Trades are now finding their the skills in high demand and charging very high rates.
