Capitalism didnt make me start 10 hobbies to give up once the hyperfixation and dopamine from buying the supplies wore off or make cleaning the house simultaneously an impossible job and impossible to ignore.
I just want to stop pissing me off.
For a while there with the “Not a flamethrower” and stuff he did manage to put a veneer of “Wacky” over the way he conducts business.
Yeah thats what I meant about “within their niche” They try and buy the shit themselves for their hobby and have a storefront and only rep for products they reasonably stand behind.
Doing the “to the masses” type products dropshipping is usually a losing game because theres always someone more unscrupulous who will do more underhanded shit to be 10c per item cheaper.
I know people who have had good success with dropshipping but only within their hobby/interests niche. They freely admit that “This is the cheap chinese one but it gets the job done.” And word gets around that they are trustworthy and reliable.
Theres a photo of me with a convicted murderer and a photo of me with a convicted child sex offender.
The guy did 10 years for murder and I knew him from the custom car scene, I knew him after he got out, didnt talk about it much. I worked with the child sex offender before he got found out and sent away, that motherfucker is a fight on sight if I ever see him again.
The photos exist out there on the internet somewhere and theres jack shit I can do about it. (Actually the murderer was a pretty chill guy by the time I knew him, that photo doesnt bother me.)
Can I take it for a spin before we talk about if I want it or not?
It IS distracting as hell in the gym though. Not from a pervy or objectifying place. Just my brain screaming “Is that woman naked from the waist down!?!” Every time she goes near my eye line. Its weird because when the top matches it doesnt happen.
The funny thing is that people just dont get it.
My car doesnt have a modified exhaust because I want your attention, my car has a modified exhaust because vroom vroom noises make me happy. Its juvenile and stupid but that and the rgb lights on my pc are about the only two things left in my life that give my inner child joy anymore.
And I dont really care if it makes anyone mad.
Yeah ok mate. Have fun.
I’m Australian, Ive literally encountered them domesticated and in the wild hundreds of times in my life.
But if an American has seen a video I must be wrong.
And sometimes big bucks will decide they arent having your walking around on back legs shit and try and give you an antler poking…
Generally both will run off, but if they want to barney, they can.
They are essentially deer who get about on their back legs behavior wise.
If she thinks I’m not atleast seeing the tiddies before I commit treason she has another thing coming.
Maybe I do have some rose tinted glasses because I hated 8 oh so fucking much.
Thats what I keep saying about Windows 10.
When it dropped it was fucking amazing. Every last thing just worked and they werent trying to milk us for every last cent or scrap of personal info just yet.
A friend suggested UBI for rural and semi rural areas only.
“If you want to collect a check and do fuckall but work on your art or music or whatever. Fine, but do it somewhere people arent fighting tooth and nail to live awesome lives.” If you want to live near the beach and have awesome international touring bands come to your city… that shit is for the people who work for it.
I mean, its not a terrible idea.
I manage 50 staff every day.
A few of them are rockstars at what we do. Most are just “Also Ran” and you know what… A crew of people who arent amazing at their jobs doing their best get the job done every day.
Sometimes Amazon has the stupid low priced widget that I need, at a lower price than anywhere else, with next day delivery…
Like… Fuck…
The real fuck up here was not involving the parents immediately.
Accuse my kid of whatever you like, but I expect to be notified and given the opportunity to attend should I want to or should they want me to. Yes the parents will almost always back their kid and insist they did nothing wrong but if you dont like that, dont be a teacher.
