Oh, don’t worry about upper management, they can continue to work remotely - but they’ll still have dedicated offices in several locations in case they are forced to travel. And that will be one less office for the schmucks who have to come into the office.

And this isn’t just Amazon. This is an orchestrated push by the CEOs of many large companies, all conspiring together to claw back some control of their employees. And you’ll do it because fuck you, of course you’ll do it… what choice have you got?

I refer to them all as ‘The Library’.

Did you know you can borrow movies, books, music, and TV shows from The Library? It’s awesome!

You should make a general post about this to promote it. I just installed it, along with the blocklist Nikelui posted below and I’ve seen a huge difference in my search results. Thank you!

It needs another frame showing that feudalism never went away. Capitalism is just a way to walk us all back to feudalism.

Thanks, I was going to let it go because I was sure you just misunderstood what I was saying, and honestly it isn’t worth arguing over. But I appreciate you following up.

Two different things can be different.

I’m talking about wolves, not immigrants. Are you saying that you’re against removing an animal from the endangered species list because of immigration policy? Because, that’s weird.

I saw a similar thread on Reddit about 12 years ago and one of the suggestions near the bottom that didn’t have any comments on it is something I’ve incorporated into my daily life and it has made a huge difference: Adjust your car mirrors so you have no blind spots.

Most people have their side mirrors adjusted where they can see a portion of their own car in the mirror. This leaves you with large blind spots. To adjust them where you have no blind spots, sit in the driver’s seat and lean your head over to the left as far as you can (basically putting your head on the window), then adjust the driver’s side mirror to where you can just barely see your car in it. Then lean your head over to the passenger side about the same amount and adjust that mirror.

When adjusted properly if you can see a car in your rearview mirror, you shouldn’t be able to see that car in your side mirrors, but as soon as a car is no longer visible in the rearview mirror it should be visible in one of your side mirrors. Then when it is no longer visible in your side mirror it should be in your peripheral vision.

It takes some getting used to, but once dialed in and you’re used to it then it makes changing lanes a breeze. It also helps at night if someone behind you has bright lights because you’ll only see them in one mirror instead of all 3.

Why is ‘Latin America’ listed as of it is a continent? Mexico is part of North America.

Rejecting a policy just because ‘the other side’ is the one who implemented it supports it is bad policy. It’s basically the way the republican party operates in Congress.
