I built my vapes myself. Can’t imagine getting off cigs and then using SINGLE USE LiPo batteries…

Don’t you dare hinder me from experiencing the experience with the sponge.

Can’t upvote. It’s currently at 69, which is nice

When you start drinking at 16:30 you’re already past the first hangover at 01:30

Also, it is Espresso in every language except French, where it is called Expresso

Sus

Great, you’re nice. Congratz on doing the absolute bare minimum.

Any hobbies she’s interested in as well? Or interesting hobbies in general? Any skill you have other than dislocating your shoulder, like changing the breaks on your car? Are you a Sub and want a Dom but she’s a Sub as well? Are you radiating any sexual energy? Heck some women find tax evasion as sexy as a sixpack.

I’ve seen some of Doonesbury‘s comics on the Internet. They, just like this comic strip, feel less like satire and more like a hyperbole. In Austria, we ususally overexaggerate everything. Like we have a satirical book about a former major of Vienna, called “get me the sparkling wine”

As a European, all these American news read like you‘re very close to a civil war over there

Me, cooking, fucked up my Tofu and my wife always uses ChatGPT for everything: hey ChatGPT, how can I fix the tofu that curdled into the smallest flakes possible? ChatGPT: vinegar and heat.

The one time I used ChatGPT for more than “I have this tax law and want my grandma to understand it, say the same using easy words” content I ruined a whole pot of tofu and nutmilk.

If you don’t know what you want it to say, it is wrong.

I have the vague idea where that image is from, but I don’t know for sure.

Where did you find that?

Now that you mention non-salary benefits… I would get a company car for myself in the new job, effectively eliminating all car-related costs. Healthcare wise it‘s the same. This company car would reduce my cost immensely, evening out the salary gap.

Well the new job would make use of various licenses I acquired in my free time. On paper it sounds amazing but I would really want to know what I’m getting into before actually quitting my current job.

Please correct me if I’m wrong since I’m not native in English. In my understanding a paycut is the reduction of one’s income.

My backup plan is that I have an assessment in the near future that, if passed, states me as someone who’s good with taxes and that certificate is valued higher than a bachelor‘s degree

No paycut, only if I switch jobs

Well that’s the point, there’s so many managers that they load the work of the retirees off to the other managers. The positions just vanish.

Retirements aren’t replaced. Only chance of getting a raise is if someone higher up quits

The transition from the "don’t believe everything you see on the internet“ mindset to the “if it’s on the internet it must be right” mindset was swift and frictionless. But I think it was somewhere between 2019 and 2022

In Austria, where I’m from, sex ed in school gets a brief introduction at age 10 when learning about the human anatomy, gradually learning more in biology class. Before ending middle school, there’s a mandatory intensive sex ed course, at least that was the thing 17 years ago.

Condoms were primarily advertised as medical products for preventing from sexual diseases, and only secondly as pregnancy preventions.

1 in 10 has had sex with 14 years old in my country, keep it safe, better at home with condoms than in the woods without. If they want to, they’ll find a way.
