Depends on the flavor and intensity of ND.

Plenty of ND’s find and keep jobs. Just other varieties have different wiring and tolerances that don’t fit well with what most people do in normal jobs.

A lot of work has shifted to remote, even if some do have office days still, so maybe you can find one that suits your skills that allows that? Even school can be done remote and online, though I do expect that there would be mandatory class meetings.

I don’t know of any jobs off the top of my head that allow someone to be a complete hermit, but maybe someone else can chime in with one.

Only worthwhile if it was livestreamed. Otherwise the cam would never have existed.

“A few things parents should remember…”

Not reproducing would be a start.

What the fuck.

Good for her catching him.

Journey?

Any originals left in that band?

Yeah, this take is BS.

If you hold a sign saying you’re pro-ICE, you’re pro-ICE. If you’re harassing people and pushing their buttons saying you’re pro-ICE, you are in fact pro-ICE. Anyone walking by will assume you are pro-ICE. It isn’t up to the viewer to perform a psychoanalysis of the person and calculate the odds of whether the person is lying, and if they’re trolling… fuck ’em.

We’d attack policy, but Republicans don’t have any.

FWIW maybe an office job isn’t for everyone. Some people need different challenges and changes of scenery. Some of those jobs may be a bit more blue collar. Things like survey teams, equipment operators, trades, etc. Probably union gigs, too. I couldn’t handle office politics or being trapped either.

If it can’t be seen you can’t prove it is changing things. You don’t get it both ways saying it’s invisible to me but somehow isn’t invisible for you.

You think forcing a binary choice wins the argument? One absolutely can appreciate public protest and also understand it isn’t stopping the oligarchs and fascist takeover. I can. Can you?

Ok, without effective resistance.

Tell me what has changed due to the protests that is stopping trump and the rest of the regime. Be specific.

Wonder how it’s going to be laundered back to him.

It is without resistance. The citizens offer protest while the Democratic Party looks out for their retirement checks. The protest has been ineffective other than getting press and bringing out trump’s goon squad.

He’s insane.

But one seems to always grant the other. You don’t get just the power, or just the money.

The assumption that I lack knowledge of alternate economic and governing systems and left them unconsidered is as insulting as your smug confidence that any other system is immune to corruption and disparity.

That is the tendency of people. Any system is open to exploitation and greed. The restrictions on growing exploitation are only as good as the humans enforcing them, and people suck. There’s always people trying to force cracks in a system to benefit themselves, and some tribal influences that will allow them to do it.

I disagree. Capitalism can be curbed. The failure is greed on humanity’s part always tryong to carve out more for themselves. No system of government or economy has proven otherwise over the long term. They all eventually fail.

Respectfully I am not willing to get into this debate. If communism worked, we’d be doing it. Unfortunately so far it seems to have incredibly weak protections against authoritarian takeover despite its overall egalitarian appeal.

Yeah, corpos pushing products are using ads, but they’re not the ones determining the engagement algorithm that puts the ragebait in front of you.
