Agreed. This article sounds like the kind of BS corporate media’s trying to parrot to gaslight us into giving up WFH.

This childless man loves his peace, quiet, and alone time.

But maybe I don’t qualify as I have dogs, friends, and kickass neighbors.

That’s the deadline Donald set for the passage of the Big Beautiful Bill as well.

You can prepay for a year of unlimited with Mint Mobile for way less than this.

As she should be. What a perfect little creature.

I hate that all of the worst things Donald is planning are slated for July 4.

I suppose, if you’re looking to make it more convenient, you could cook things in bulk and then freeze portions of it for later consumption.

Atticus is a king.

There’s also that part about usury that everyone just sorta ignores. Most Christians can’t even define the word.

I live in an area that gets a ton of visitors and I often have to make sure people understand the pet names they’re hearing are for my yorkie (Things like ‘cutie bootie’ or ‘sugar booger’.)

Proof that God hates billionaires.

Sorry to say, but no idea.

We used separate applications for seven years (Jabber for IM and Asana for ticket management), and for me, that’s what I’m stuck with using Teams for, at least until Microsoft drops AI into and it eats itself.

Agreed.

I like it here.

I just walked my dogs through a shopping district and stopped at a store that gives out puppy treats.

There were two siblings screaming and fighting. I felt bad for the parents, but relieved for myself.

I’m stuck with Teams in my job.

I fucking hate it.

True, but if the shoe is ever on the other foot, I’d like someone to help me when I’m helpless.

10000000000% good boi

In a lot of ways.

My parents are 80 and still working (for DoorDash) because they parented so many, requiring them to spend, and never saved. This creates a massive burden on my siblings and I, and in fact, they’ve ‘borrowed’ my car for over a year to work. I can wake up on any random day and there’s a plumbing problem in their house or the A/C goes out, and suddenly, we have to find a few thousand bucks to fix it because they don’t have it.

I started my adult life $3,000 in debt, having let my mom use my credit card to pay for some tickets to Universal Studios on a vacation. She promised to repay it, but only made payments when debt collectors called, so the debt notched up for two years until I graduated and realized just how bad it was. (I am glad this happened while I was so young, though, because I became financially literate as a result.)

My siblings’ ages cross generational boundaries, so it’s hard for us to have healthy relationships being the products of very different times.

My mom and dad don’t have any organic friendships, because my dad had to work his entire life and has no time, and my mom is only happy when mothering someone. (And she has dozens of grandkids, so there’s still opportunities for that.)

I’ve had my heart broken enough times too, but at the end of the day, I’ve just found I enjoy my freedom more than I enjoy being with someone. It’s that simple.

I grew up in a big family so I did a lot of parenting without my consent and never had that romantic veneer about parenthood that some people do.
