In the short term, sure… But the reason its like this in the first place is because everyone takes the stance of not rocking the boat. I say throw em overboard.
And shit we’ve all been there, I had a coworker say some vile shit around me before and just let it slide because its easier. I’m in a different position these days and find keeping things secret / quiet only allows these issues to fester.
report them to HR for racist comments in the workplace.
report them for sexual harassment.
3 & 4) especially 4 just report to HR for having too many political comments on the floor.
All the stuff you listed is inappropriate and contributing the drama. You report it so that you can say “I’ve already made it known I’m not trying to have these conversations with you, please stop” and when they don’t you go back to step one till they get fired.
The alternative is to learn to accept your coworkers as they are, unprofessional or not, and not let their bullshit irritate you so much.
Not saying which is correct, but you have options.
This particular streamer is terrible. There are plenty of great ones; dont lump them all together.
That wasn’t the joke. There is no way OP meant it literally.
New POE skill tree looks dope.
Not wasting energy explaining this to you. You’re clearly incapable of engaging with a disagreement which has lead you to double down and move a few goalposts around.
All criticism of your original point was done respectfully, its really not my problem if you can’t just acknowledge you misspoke in the first post… Its downvoted like 20+ times man. What other evidence do you need that maybe you didn’t communicate your thoughts clearly.
Hey man don’t take it personal that we disagree with your original point…if you meant to say something else, fair enough, but we all posting / responding to the OP which was more broad than what you are saying now.
Additionally, my response was more about quality of materials which may incrue extra costs and had nothing to do with buying over priced designer stuff. I agree with your new point, but thats not what you said initially.
Yeah that’s a great way to get a quality pair of shoes! I’ve done similar… Or check out the lightly used rack at REI or something.
Agreed on point about special purpose footwear. However disagree with both you and OPs point about not investing in footwear and seemingly choosing options based at least mostly on cost.
Cheap footwear leads to a variety of other health / joint / posture issues that cost far more in the long run.
All new shoes are going to feel okay when you first get them. Something people forget is how a cheap shoe will degrade over time. Common example is soles wearing down unevenly because say the insole or outsole is made out of something cheap. Now you need to walk on a slightly uneven footing for months till you buy a new pair, thus furthering the damage created by ever other cheap pair of shoes you’ve bought over the years.
Shoes, tires, matress; dont skimp.
He could just turn it into a nonprofit at some point with some specific rules in place about how certain things are handled within the company.

Dude you’re doxxing yourself…delete the post or edit the screen shot.
Casual bi erasure 😂. I’m just messing with you dude, but if you don’t think a person can have a front facing normal life and some behind the scenes CNC, sans consent, parties you are fooling yourself.
Yeah I mean, I didn’t say to gloat / flaunt. You can do what I suggested without making others feel small. False modesty is exactly what we are avoiding…genuine modesty is absolutely fine to run alongside my comment about being right sized and is the perfect antitode to the concern you started your post with.
And tbh the right sized thing has less to do with looks / status / wealth and more to do with how we see ourselves when doing a self assessment of character traits.
You’re fine, glad you got something out of it. It was told to me by someone who helped me through a pivotal time; happy to pass it on.
Humility is about being right sized. A lot of folks take this idea of humility as needing to lessen oneself for the sake of being “humble” when really we should be representing ourselves clearly and as objectively as possible.
I had my gmail account since the early invite days too! Your final point is valid, there really is no way to tell if sometime down the line a company may change gears and we end up in the same BS we’re in now.
That being said, proton seems to have a good track record so far and unless they get acquired down the line I can’t see them moving so drastically away from their focus on privacy.
Forward gmail to new provider and then use new email from now on. Eventually you’ll want to go in and update your email address for all the other sites you frequent…takes a few hours but you’ll be free.
Did it last year and it was relatively easy.
Did you even watch the video?
