Xariphon@kbin.socialto memes@lemmy.world•How many other businesses would we be fine with operating like this?204·1 year agoI told my wife, the day I see an actual fucking doctor when my appointment time is, I’ll either die of shock or but a lottery ticket.
In my experience you’re lucky if some not-an-MD is checking your weight and blood pressure within half an hour, but if you’re five minutes late they’re sending you a bill for them doing literally nothing and canceling you entirely. I’ve never seen anybody so high on their own fucking importance while at the same time showing not the slightest smidgen of respect for the time of anyone else unfortunate enough to have to interact with them.
I wish I had a job where I could fuck up the timing of every single task every single day that consistently and still be employed. Not that I would, because I recognize that other people’s time matters.

I won’t drink Nestle instant because Nestle is up to their goddamn eyeballs in slave labor and they’re probably one of the worst corporations in the world. I try everything I can not to buy their products.

I used to do Renaissance Faires.
“Wild Mountain Thyme” was the song the entire cast sang together at the end of each day, my first year.
It hits me like a truck every time.
Xariphon@kbin.socialto News@lemmy.world•Revealed: at least 22 Californians have died while being held face down by police since 2016212·1 year agoSo why do so many keep dying?
Because these deaths are caused by murderous assholes with over-inflated egos and immunity to consequences. ACAB.

Xariphon@kbin.socialto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is the worst thing that has ever happened in the Warhammer 40K lore?15·1 year agoThe Horus Heresy. When you see what the Emperor’s vision actually was, and really get to compare it to the galaxy they got, it’s just… so much worse. And the galaxy is pretty goddamn bad to begin with. But you know there’s a special place at the very bottom of hell for Erebus.

But see also, “Y, the Last Man” for why being literally the last man on earth isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, or Five from “The Umbrella Academy” for an object lesson in why being alone for decades in a post-apocalyptic hellscape isn’t the best thing for your mental health.
Xariphon@kbin.socialto News@lemmy.world•Florida gets closer to banning social media for kids under 16193·1 year agoBecause that’s what young people need, more ways to be excluded from society and isolated.
Also the idea of yet another way or reason to exclude young people from society, yet another way to make them other or less than is the opposite of what modern society needs, and should be treated as fundamentally offensive.
