I'm a state government employee, and it is indeed true that I'm not really doing any "work" for a huge chunk of my shifts. But here's the key: when real work is needed, you absolutely need someone to be there, on the clock, ready to spring into action.

I made a "that's why they pay us the big bucks" joke to a client's parents today and there's a good chance they don't know that the bucks that they us are, as a matter of fact, pretty big.

Don't self-censor. Every time you do you're making your stories less true

A lot of the "charlie brown doesnt have hoes" arguments are built on the unspoken acknowledgement that charlie brown doesn't even deserve hoes. "Charlie brown has inadequate rizz for hoes" but the arguer tries to blame this on the hoes.

I don't want to yell at this one too hard, because like, at least it's something, but like, the reason that Trump doesnt want black generals is the exact same reason Andrew Jackson didn't. We're just doing Jim Crow again!

There's a kind of person--Ben Carson, Richard Dawkins, Kanye--who think their exceptional talent in one area means they are a genius broadly. Elon Musk is not one of them. He's just a dumbass.

The comparison I'm about to make is certainly problematic and will objectify the hell out of women, but uh, bear with me. The most patriarchal societies in the world are ones that have polygamy, where one man will have many wives.

Alternatively, mens liberation is for men and a natural ally of feminism against the patriarchy because the patriarchy isn't for men it's for patriarchs.

Isn't is weird how this person felt compelled to make sure their reasonable, interesting take on modern masculinity is attached to an insane maximalist one about how all men deserve to die?
