Anything really grinding your gears that you need to get off your chest? Lets talk about it.

Working from home. I hate it. If I had a family or a social life and a self-disciplined gym regimen, I’d be fine. But I dont. And I work for yanks, so my hours are all shifted to suit them.
I miss having a daily commute I could work a daily exercise into, colleagues I could passively chat to, social events happening around me.
But I dont. There are no other jobs, just yank work. I just wake late, sleep late, consume fast food, and work.
Damn I am having the exact oppisite experice. I hate dealing with the public and everything that comes with working outside of the house, but all the work from home jobs have been scooped up and its been impossible to find a decent one since COVID. Its extremely annoying to me because I don’t want to go back to retail and feel like I am not being given a choice.
I’m sorry, that sucks. As cliche as it sounds, when I was stuck in a similar rut, the biggest positive influence was to try and go outside regularly. Even if it’s just walking through nature for a couple of minutes every other day, it really helped my energy levels and mood.
Stay strong! I hope you find something better.
The limited Jewish support for Palestine in the NDG neighborhood highlights the diversity of opinions within the Jewish community in my experience.
I want to point out that not all Jews support the Israeli government with what’s going on in Palestine right now. I see this sentiment all over the internet and Lemmy.
It’s split down political lines. Right wing Jews are more likely to support the Israeli government and their actions, and left leaning and most centrist Jews are appalled.
Please don’t lump all Jews as being supportive of this horrific situation. That’s how you get society (again) to blanket hate all Jews.
The obsession Americans have with acronyms. Some of them can have wildly different meanings depending on the context (MTG, CP), and sometimes even in the same context can mean different things and you need further context, like video game titles (DS, GoW, AC, SC).
Advertising and the stock market. Two evil controlling systems that systematically abuse humans daily. Fired, stock market. Some random dude got some absurd promotion to tank the company and ruin people’s lives - stock market. Forced to watch advertising every fucking where you go… Ohh sorry someone needs to do that to make money so fuck you.
