A #comic about being bad at planning grocery shopping. This doesn't happen online, just saying.

Channeling @GWillow and asking people to amplify this so we can find #SoundersFC mastodon people.
Wondering how #mastodon will take to my habitual #soundersfc match tweeting when footy season returns. Might have to use a #soccer CW tag 😂

I think we all deserve to relish this moment in late 2022 and come to grips with the fact that the open web never went away. It’s been here the whole time. We were just blind to the importance of preserving it and nurturing it at all costs.
We thought corporations could learn how to be good citizens on the web, and that the benefits of “centralized” content outweighed the risks. We were wrong.
And now a MASSIVE course correction is finally underway. Finally.
Jesus, this guy could not possibly be *more* "straight out of central casting." #mi5 #kingsman #harrypalmer http://www.cnn.com/2022/11/16/uk/mi5-chief-russia-spying-iran-china-threats-intl/index.html
So here's a thing.
They way #public #corporations operate these days is they do quarterly or annual earnings reports.
When the #earnings reports show growth that is lower than the previous one, or even a loss, the #shareholders demand cutbacks.
This is completely irrelevant of how good the previous 1, 4, 10 reports have been.
So in Q2 you make 10x #profit. Shareholders are happy.
But next earnings report, you've #lost 10%.
Shareholders FLIP THE FUCK OUT and hand you a machete. #cuts
@themusicgod1 And here I thought I was going by too many names. How many of you are you? 😂
@jeffcliff that post you boosted is a good example of what happens when my worlds collide :D
ftr myself and others mostly ended up setting the person straight
TIL that Philip Michael Thomas put out a pop/R&B/reggae album in 1985, which was roundly panned and flopped.
In listening now, it's really not at all that bad. It wouldn't be out of place in an R&B/soul/smooth jazz playlist. Perhaps the reason it was so vilified was because of the expectations that Thomas made for it: it was to be the G in his EGOT, a term he coined yet never came close to achieving. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4vFgpT3-FQ #mastomusic
