I thought we were paying respects to the fallen dial tone

It’s only a dial tone if it comes from a land line

otherwise it’s just sparkling audio lies

fair point.

Yes, we are defeating non-human life without trying. if we were trying I imagine we could make quite a dent.

but if the animal kingdom was trying, I think that would be pretty terrifying.

a) what you say is true b) these car-related issues affect other countries just as much : I’m Canadian. c) there are other things that WFH improves as well, but they are far enough behind the car-related problems that they can seem petty by comparison. They aren’t petty at all, but they do make a convenient foil for those who argue against WFH.

my overseer can see my work just fine. also I fucking rock.

this still smells of propaganda, like it’s woven through the whole thing. “The American worker is making peace with a longer ride”.
and yet the very first example they provide is someone who works from home twice a week.

I’ll tell you this: the commute is even better when you work from home. WFH means less carbon emissions, less time wasted in traffic, and less time literally putting your life at risk from vehicle collisions.

and yet their necks are all roughly the same size as everyone else’s.

How very curious.

and he’ll get it too if it wasn’t for you meddling kids

SLIDE!

The time spent to commute to work is much longer than the time it takes a hedgie to plummet from a window of their own free will.

Popularity is overrated. Irrelevance is freedom.

when exactly are we going rise up and demand better

That would be when consumers decide to come together and operate collectively in their own best interests against immense multinational corporations.
Soooooooooo, possibly quite a while.

yeah I can understand the motivation for removing “gun”
but “her boyfriend’s a dick” is a perfectly valid lyric. How in the fuck-flavoured fuck is “dick” so offensive to people?

Conservatism is simply a lack of experience

also see: immaturity

And, yes, you are right: people who used to be wrong aren’t wrong anymore. We’re all just really used to brow-beating our perceived enemies.

I’ll only be convinced when this exact same story is reposted in 2-3 days, and then again in 6-7 days

Finally, someone actually said they didn’t like it. Thank you.

a) thanks! I’ll take that as a compliment.

b) we have two full albums of these, and a third on the way.

c) If there is a /c/ for people who do covers I’d love to know : I need to find my people :)

how about a jazz version of some classic Smashing Pumpkins?
