Here is some hope: You have a great job and you love the actual work! Some aspects of it are bullshit, some of the time at work you spend on mandatory bullshit, and bullshitters who detract from your happiness exist all around the world, in every industry. But: All that doesn’t completely cancel out the love you still have for your work - otherwise you wouldn’t have phrased it that way, would you? Also a slice of good news is, you have some degree of control over how much you let the shitty aspects cancel out the good things. Admittedly, the control is never 100%. And sometimes, the bullshit and frustration can get overwhelming and does have the power to tip the balance into a minus. That’s when it’s time to leave. Prepare to ge into a new, more rewarding field now. That will give you a choice when you feel the moment has come (probably it’s when you keep saying the above sentence to people in the past tense).

Have you noticed how they react extremly slowly? That’s an explicit setting they make in CSS so rejecting them is sure to waste a lot of your time.

Thanks, but I still didn’t get the meme in this context. The dog is Germany. The pizza box is “Sending Lenin to Russia” inside it are communism, losing WW2 and the Berlin wall. Germany is being offered these things but doesn’t want them. My metaphor interpretation skills are failing me here…

I’m wondering if there actually was anything there at her socials though. Didn’t she even have a Discord channel?

The point of the petition isn’t the name though, it’s constitutional change

I observe the exact same thing in my parents - it’s as if they somehow can’t see some things on the screen, or lose the ability to comprehend written text, when it’s unexpectedly displayed on a screen. They always fixate on some irrelevant UI element, ignoring the one that’s currently important.

When I found out that my dad doesn’t know what the backspace key does on the PC keyboard. His whole life he’s only ever used the Del key and always positions the cursor to the left of text he wants to delete. He used to work at IBM for over 30 years and learned to program back in the day when computer code was printed on punch cards. But I’m pretty sure keyboards already had the backspace key back then.
