Ah yes, Russian conscripts! Known for such classics as “immediately surrendering because they don’t want to die for nothing in some maniacs war”.

Guts from Berserk.

The thing is, I never heard any employer actually doing this. I knew they could do it. But until now I thought even the densest boss would shy away from risking a legal enema.

Such home visits were not well-received, and bosses were greeted with slammed doors and threats to call the police. But Thierig claimed checking up on sick workers at home was common practice and that they were appealing to “the employees’ work ethic.”

Wrong. You are allowed to visit your employee at home when you have a very good reason to believe they are faking it. But you visited 30 employees. You’re doing this shit systematically. Even the union is calling you out for overworking people until they get sick. I hope you keep fucking up like this. Labour courts are usually heavily in favour of employees. When they band together the court will rip you a new one.

Breaking: Tech companies worldwide call for immediate end of home office “The end of days is no excuse to ignore back to office order!”

This is a blatant lie.

Last time I checked on those people they claimed Trump would be completely pro Palestinian and everyone who didn’t see this true true was stupid. Didn’t know they jumped right to jUsT As BaD.

Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky. It and its sequel Children of Ruin both explore what it means to be a person and makes you feel empathy for “the other”, beings that get more and more alien as the story moves on. Compared to most of what others mention here it is rather new. But it will become a cult classic, I am certain of that.

Being the small spoon. Sometimes a man just needs to be cuddled and I am glad my girlfriend understands that.

Could you not make me feel miserable out of nowhere? I am a mostly decent person?

To quote my DM when I’m about to cause a near TPK: „You can certainly try.“

Getting tortured to death by three vodka addicts while propagating for the wrong side of history. Unsightly way to go.

Problem is they also payed a shit ton of right wing YouTubers and Podcasters to repeat their lies. Those will continue to broadcast their shit.

Edit: I just remembered how much friendlier the internet was on every single occasion when the Russians have been singled out. So I’d say: Do it.

Yes.

Back in my day we just responded with “didn’t read LOL”

Never heard anyone getting payed for donating anything in Germany. You can get an compensation for expenses, yes. But this is not supposed to be a payment for your donation, it is supposed to compensate for your expenses. For example: Finding a babysitter or paying for bus, train, gas. Sometimes you have to make a medical examination beforehand, which also can take some time.

The German Red Cross for example explicitly doesn’t pay the donors so nobody gets the wrong idea and tries to donate as much and often at the cost of their own health.

I think the idea that a compensation is equal to a payment is flawed beyond reason. If someone has a problem with any organisation misusing donations for profit, they should (rightfully) engage in changing the law. Categorically not donating at all is…well it’s just selfish and stupid.

At the same time, Medvedev said “a nuclear conflict is really not needed by anyone,” adding that: “It is obvious that a nuclear response is an extremely difficult decision with irreversible consequences.”

Ha! Hahahahahaha! Get fucked! The only reason you say that is because the US already told you that any kind of nuclear attack would result in a good old round of “fuck around and find out”!

Must feel bad to be emasculated that hard.

How the turn tables!
