    aaaaa this is hurting more than it should

    keep getting reminders from meetup.com about events at a pub not too far away. apparently tonight is Wargame Night. Tomorrow is Boardgames. etc...

    what kind of irresponsible fuckwits are going to these events.

    and going to events like that is what I want most in the world right now but can't have. i only signed up on meetup to try and find virtual game nights but so far no luck. and its been weeks since even one other person has had time to get a game on remotely.

    Looking for an ISP that has real upload speeds is horrifying. I have to spend over $400/mo in my area for a fiber drop at symmetrical 100Mbps.

    Comcast's gigabit plan is capped at ~ ~ ~ 3 5 ~ ~ ~ Mbps what in the absolute fuck?

    i got an email recently that the richmond d&d meetup was being shut down for inactivity unless i wanted to take it over

    i hadn't interacted with it in probably 12 years

    that felt very sad

    also i did not take it over

    Hm phone call from recruiter after I dropped my resume on LinkedIn
    I shouldn’t get hopes up but I like thinking that someone else is potentially job hunting on my behalf
    ...I also unwisely disclosed my current salary, saying that I am being paid under market, and she agreed and thought that I probably should be making 20-50k more than I do, given the job duties/skill set/qualifications

    i am surprised comcast hasn't been sued over their advertised vs actual speeds

    i would not be surprised to learn they have been and they won because the general state of affairs with private telecoms is abysmal but

    This sounds like the dumbest union ever. Isn't their whole purpose to advocate for you?

    My school is requiring staff and students to wear masks when they come back

    and I'm glad for this, but also very concerned we're gonna have people cutting slits and holes and shit, not to mention kids just unable to keep the dang things on.

    But like 1000/35 is what they're advertising!

    Naturally it will be worse!

    This is truly one of the most unpleasant tasks I've had in my years at this company. I might just have to make the business case for fiber and convince the owner to pony up because there's just no fucking competition anywhere

    Either my gut is doing the bad things or the cupcakes in the break room this morning had excessive food coloring in them because I pooped and it was very green with a hint of blue. Feels like a bit of quick turnaround between eating and colored poop but bodies are basically junk so it wouldn't surprise me.

    It was that somehow, from within the derelict-horror, they had learned a way to see inside an ugly, broken thing... And take away its pain.

    my guess would be more senior people in the union not having the same perk would be a big problem for them

    Speaking of internet a streamer I follow is having the fibre company just straight up dig a line to his house cause he was sick of Spectrum fucking up his shit.

    Wish I had that kind of cash.

    I mean spanish are hella dumb and you could probably tie a straw to a hook and that would work.

    When I fish in the gulf with FiL it’s with live shrimp. Most bait places don’t fuck around with anything else.
