Goddamn, I gotta go watch Red Dwarf again

Yeah, I understand that. I feel like I know you, you know?

Check the math? What do I look like, a numbertician??

No, this happened a few years ago, but clearly it’s a lot more common than I thought!

A milder story than some here:

Someone had accidentally sent an email to the whole company of 44,000 or so employees. Cue a bunch of emails -replying all- asking why they were receiving the email… followed by another wave of emails asking people to stop replying all.

Was a great popcorn moment, and made me laugh every time a new email came in.

sadly I can’t disagree with you - that reputation is fairly earned. I, for one, welcome our new NZ overlords 😂

Damn, that’d suck if it goes ahead - as an Aussie who was very disappointed with the result of the recent referendum here, I really admire what NZ has done to integrate and champion Māori culture ☹️

Oh good, anything to help me kill more at night!

Yeah, you’re right in that governments aren’t exactly helping with the problem either - there’s a lot of wanting to have their cake and eat it too. I hope you don’t think I’m attacking you for owning a property btw - I’m frustrated at the system, especially in my country, where the laws aren’t changing to help people own homes or protect renters, because the ones making the laws usually have a strong investment in housing themselves

Was the apartment bought with the intention to make profit? I understand what you’re saying, and maybe you inherited that apartment and it’s more effort than it’s worth. My overall concern is that as a whole, housing shouldn’t be seen through the lens of making someone else money - it should be a basic human right.

So surely you always have the option of just… not renting out a property?

Planet of the Apes, here we come!

That’s about 3/4 through one game of Factorio

Yeah ikr. Feels like they’re still pissed at us for our ACCC taking them to task for not offering refunds here

The Testmen?

Was huge in Australia too!

Therapy can help you heal, but when every week brings a new trauma you’re just treading water.

Damn, that’s… depressingly poignant

oh that’s good, I’m stealing that!

I like the German “gesundheit”, which means “good health”

Guess i’ll now just call it “The company formerly known as Twitter” 🤷🏻‍♂️

yeahh my man - Rocket League, Path of Exile and Warframe are my top three (though I stopped playing RL when it migrated to Epic accounts)
