  • Hey, guys, I know I’m late to the party, but my city just announced that they spent half a million dollars of Microsoft office licenses last year. I think that’s nuts. I want to try to persuade them to switch non-power-users to LibreOffice suite and reduce their office licenses by over 90%. Do you have any advice, examples, or selling points that can help me persuade them to cut Microsoft office licenses instead of literal firefighters? And, seeing as this is late, I’d welcome anybody answering. Thanks!


  • I mean, a guy can cope, okay?

    We’re not going to get that far, though. We’ve got a poly ecological crisis happening right now between insect extinction, microplastics in brain tissue and inhibiting photosynthesis, and climate change, and the right has decided (thanks to some generous donations) that long term growth is woke, we need maximum profits right up until everyone is dead. We’re just gonna plug our ears and yell “la la la can’t hear you” while the lights flicker out one by one, and then all at once.




  • Okay, are we all here? Let’s discuss Jeb Blinkersen, 29, of 39 waukee way, Minnesota. Have we done anything to ruin his life lately? Looks like he got a raise recently, shit, we’ve got to get ahead of this NOW. Johnson, I want you to breed up some samples of that bat-whale-bear virus we’ve been incubating in RFK, and make sure there’s an accident. Stevens, call his boss and tell him to send the factory to China OR ELSE. Yeah, they probably won’t like the higher profit margins, but make it clear they have no choice. We’ll show Jeb to let his guard down. Good meeting everyone, let’s meet again next week about Amanda Hugenkiss, priority omega seven; Zuckerberg says she seems actually happy and she might be trying to leave Facebook.



  • I mean, it’s elementary math tbh. When civilizations collapse and the angry, hungry hordes go burning the countryside, the rich are especially unsafe. Our own wealthy know this, which is why they’re building bunkers in NZ. This confounds me, frankly. They know that the world they’re creating is going to blow up and try to kill them, so maybe, idk, stop creating that particular world instead of actively choosing to live out the rest of your days in a well-adorned hole as your wealth converges towards zero because you managed to blow up every functioning society that recognizes property rights and currency? Is next quarter’s line going up a bit faster really more important than not putting yourself in a situation where you have to convince your security team to wear explosive collars?
