[META MODPOST] New Temporary Rule Change
I've noticed a lot of troll-like behavior from many accounts saying the same thing, usually complaining about a source shared in an article. In an effort to increase the quality of the comments sections of posts made in this community, I am adding a new rule to this community.
Poisoning The Well attempts attacking a source used in an article or report shared here will subject you to a temporary ban from this community. To be clear, anyone is welcome to point out parts of a particular article that are false or seem to be without proper sourcing, but for now, statements like "X website is pure propaganda" or "X website isn't news" will not be allowed.

I am giving myself license to Not Work while my lizard brain acclimatises to the subliminal sense of panic induced by the current news cycle. (Last happened around this time in 2022 during a certain 3 day "special military operation" in parts east of here.)
I can't focus on work during Interesting Times and I'll just hurt myself if I try.
@cstross I have to work or we don't eat, so it's pushing against that weight and trying to keep body-plus-soul intact by severely limiting all other activities I'm engaged upon.
I mean, not that I ever go anywhere anymore, due to the plague(s). But still.

The "capitalism-loving" clown who desperately wants to be like Elon, who sold his company Loom to Atlassian for almost a billion dollars, never again has to work a single day in his life, broke up with his girlfriend for no reason other than being a toxic moron, and now has not a single fucking idea what to do with his life now that he won capitalism (other than trying to climb a mountain in the Himalayas with zero mountaineering experience, of course, and very likely endangering some Sherpas).
