Out of curiosity, what did your consignment deals look like? Like were you consigning on behalf of the shop or customers looking to sell their stuff? And you did you split the net?
The sense of obligation towards your coworkers is something companies absolutely abuse and exploit. I’m not saying don’t have empathy for your fellow human, but people aren’t typically incentivized to use best possible solutions if they take more work outside of this obligation so you have to be careful to not let yourself be exploited because of it.
Ohhhh for some reason my mind went to him trying to tutor other dudes to help them with women. Was very confused.
Actually in ID4 there was an explanation. Basically all of humanity’s computer tech came from reverse engineering alien tech. So our computers worked with theirs because they were based on theirs. Maybe this isn’t this best logic, but they did at least have an in universe explanation.
Even worse than that imo is ‘quarter of’. I swear to god it’s been used to mean both before or after whatever hour they’re talking about
For me its mostly the legs/heads. I dont fuck with heads on anything and legs need to be way bigger for me to be interested. I’d try one of those fly/mosquito burgers tho.
There is literally no way to be upfront about communicating ‘I have no interest in what you are saying and wish you would stop talking’ without coming off like an asshole and/or hurting their feelings most of the time.
I disagree; to me it sounds like they’re talking about crimes of passion like gunning down a spouse etc. These are the majority of gun homicides but you don’t hear about them much because one or two people killed isn’t ‘newsworthy’ on it’s own anymore. True mass shootings are infrequent comparatively but because of that and by their nature they’re what we hear about. True we shouldn’t be regulating based on relatively infrequent tragedies but they can draw attention to firearm homicides as a whole which are a serious issue and not always related to mental health issues in the same way.
Mass shootings account for only 0.1% of firearm homicides.
Yeah and that’s the risk you’re supposed to take on when you invest in property to rent. The things you mentioned went up max 8% in my area but the rent increase was closer to double that. It’s greed, plain and simple. Landlords raise rent because they can.
Around here you’d be lucky to get any kind of justification for raising rent. Mine went up $500 this year just cuz for fun.
For ebay prices are sometimes meaningless unless you filter by “sold items”. But yeah looks like they’re going for around $100-$170
What do they expect the Palestinians to do, just accept their own extermination?
I mean you can fight back against your oppressors without massacring civilians, many of whom aren’t even Isrealis
all of that blood is on the hands of the Israeli apartheid regime
Huh? How do you figure that? Isreal has done a ton of fucked things but that doesn’t excuse massacring civilians. If you want support in fighting your oppressors you don’t go around committing war crimes of your own. Both sides suck here.
I didn’t see really any questions relating to mod tools or moderation outside of the one that was talking about the join-lemmy lists. Is that what you are referring to or do you mean the lack of mod tool discussion on that AMA?
Just s & p, that’s for me
As someone who has been in the professional music scene for over a decade trying to ‘break through’ and has seen many others trying the same, sometimes it’s about how good people are at their instrument/songwriting/art but more often it’s about luck and what connections and/or funding you have. I’ve seen people who are truly creative and work hard build impressive success from basically nothing. I also know plenty of people who are just as creative and hardworking spin their wheels and get nowhere. Frankly, i suspect this has always been the case. Ability alone has very very rarely been enough to attract great attention. In the stories of most big names you know there is something somewhere along the way where they either were lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time or just come from enough money to be able to give it their full attention for years, and even then they usually need some other kind of luck.
My point is not to discourage though, but rather to say that if you want to make art to become well known then in my opinion you’re doing it for the wrong reasons. Also, if you truly like a creator you should spread the word, tell your friends, tell strangers on the internet! It’s hard to convince people to give your art a try, but if someone else is doing some evangelizing it becomes much easier.
I’m not sure how you think this video is related to the comment I replied to ?
