Most salary jobs include benefit packages and don't reduce pay to hourly rates.

Bruh. Are you being willfully dense.

If I make 100k a year I divide that by 1920 hours for 40 hours a week. That's $52 an hour.

Again. Not that complicated.

Anyway tc getting a lot of flak. He might just be sex addict like me but manifests differently. I dont cheat just get into lots of porn stuff unless Im in a loving relationship, then I honestly have no problem quitting IF that's the case.

Sure, its wrong of TC, but Im willing to bet his wife knew what she was getting into when she married him or should have.

Yes and no.

I've been looking at finding a new position and during covid there were a lot more wholly remote positions that weren't even being advertised as temporary. But now that things are starting to get back to normal, I'm finding a lot more in-office positions.

I suspect there's a bit of a pendulum effect here in that organizations were forced to go to remote, and now that they (kinda) have the option to go back in-office, they're kinda going hard on the back in-office positions. I think it'll eventually normalize to more of a hybrid situation.

The couple of offers I've had recently have been hybrid. Part time in, part time out.

*pretends to be shocked*

Gleaning any malice from this list is dumb as shit. My state, Utah, as of yesterday had administered 85% of the vaccines in its inventory. Compared to 84% of the doses administered in New York. 38% had received their first dose, and around 20% had been fully vaccinated.

The figures are practically identical from a very red state to a very blue state. I suspect the more densely populated states are likely getting higher priority for getting doses delivered.

I thought it was boring as shit. I'm fine with them putting in the race stuff but the way they did it was so absurdly over the top that I couldnt handle it. I didn't like fake Captain America. The fact that a normal human could use the shield at all is dumb as hell not to mention that the shield is even worth using at all - Falcon's suit is objectively better than the shield in every way minus the super powers. Also Falcons captain suit is ew.

The subplot about Falcon being poor is weird and doesn't make any sense. I find it extremely hard to believe that who's working with the most powerful and wealthy people on the planet isn't getting a paycheck. That's weird as shit. Besides that, it really doesn't fit in with any of the rest of the plot. The only payoff you get from it is that Bucky and Falcon have their bro moment while they fix the boat. Except Falcon calls in a bunch of family favors from the community who show up and...do nothing apparently?

I have no idea what the purpose of the bad super soldiers were based on the show. Like, I guess they were mad that there were refugees after the Thanos thing or some shit? Or they wanted it to go back to when everyone died after Thanos? I literally have no idea.

Falcon vassilated between 'I'm black and I can't be Captain America' to 'I'm black but I never knew what it was like for other black men' constantly. I don't know why Isaiah would care that he got a statue in the Captain America museum. That doesn't change the fact that he was imprisoned for 30 years and his wife died during his time. I don't think he was even particularly looking for recognition so much as to not be treated like a second class citizen. Was a statue really all it took to make up for decades of abuse?

The show was so ham fisted and had poor delivery. Worse than that it was just boring.

It's not entirely unreasonable to suggest that it will continue to encompass all "old" music moving forward.

It kinda is unreasonable because there are pretty specific musical time periods. Renaissance, Baroque, Classical, Romantic, etc.

Laymen just call everything old classical, but for a super genius and extremely pedantic person like Spock, it doesn't really make sense.

Yeah because you live in Canada and Canada is fucking terrible. Poor people shouldn't be taxed. If you apply this principle to gig work like Uber and Lyft (which has also been lowered to 600 somewhat recently IIRC), that means a person taking on an extra work to make more money to make ends meet is getting fucked.

The people making a lot of money on these platforms are already being taxed. This just punishes the ones who don't make much.

The moment in the show that gets me is in the episode where Howard is given the task of throwing the first pitch at a baseball game. The whole episode is spent making fun of Howard for not being able to throw a baseball. Then at the end of the episode Howard decides to use the Mars Rover to deliver the pitch instead. This seemed like a really cool and creative way of lettting him win and paying off the episode.

But nope, instead the robot doesn't work out and he ends up getting boo'd by everyone.

And that is basically how the show works, hammering nerd stereotypes for the sake of comedy and never let them have any victories. It gets annoying.

I think what it comes down to is that it's a show that was dated before it ever even started. Nerd culture exploded in the 2000's which is when the show started. But the content they ascribe to nerds is something that I would have seen in the 80's as a depiction of what nerds are - obsessed with comic/video games, fat and/or unathletic, don't get women, don't understand social norms, etc.

But by the time it came out nerd culture became something that was shared across 'non nerd' boundaries. Dudebros were playing Halo, everyone started to love superhero movies, 'nerds' were becoming icons on youtube, etc. It'd be like creating a show now about gay stereotypes from the 90's.

At the end of the day it really doesn't matter. People like what they like. But it's so absurdly unfunny to me. I don't find it funny as a 'jock' and I don't find it funny as a 'nerd'. I don't know what people are getting out of it.
