Tonight's Ask PHLemmy: What, due to experience, do you know not to fuck with?
Projects without management tools and established processes. It was the most stressful year of my career and the first time I asked to be pulled from an account.
The phrase "We trust your judgement and you have our full support" is now a huge red flag for me.
I always stay away from armored vans and tolerate their BS no matter how annoying and entitled they drive. Not only are you going to take the most damage in a potential vehicle scuffle, but arguing with them is pointless. They're packing, too.

You won this round, FB algorithm. I didn't know this show existed until now, lol.
The eugenics guy created a new account on the orangered place mimicking my name: rmanO59
His more than 20 alt accounts posted the same eugenics copypasta and other repetitive comments. I have reported the account despite he blocked me.
EDIT: Banned na siya. Gaya-gaya pa more.
good that you reported him for mimicking your account but the way you always talk about him, im starting to suspect you have a crush on the guy.
not that im against it, #loveislove
Yeeeee progressive. 🥰
I don't have a crush on that user hahahaha, but I'm vigilant of accounts especially newer ones spreading the same comments.
OP didn't yield for the pedestrian, but at least we get to see this gem.
Holy shit, that's hilarious! Saan ito?
Abreeza Mall daw sa Davao
Blue Beetle (2023) reminded the times when we get excited for superhero movies, and delivered what the trailers showed. This movie felt like I was transported to 2000s.
Nabiyayaan uli ako ng pagkain today. Thank you lord, we eat another day. I guess people-facing jobs are not that bad here when they're generous and considerate. Then again, I was placed in a new and kinda weird + slightly chaotic position so they felt the need to compensate me ganon.
I'm already imagining anong gagawin ko if matsambahan ako ng bad mood o galit na client in person. I think I'll cross that bridge when I get there 🙈
I do have the power to say kaya ko sila i-priortize, wag ka na galit, ako na bahala. It's nice to have the ability. I don't even have to be like an extroverted social butterfly, basta alam ko ginagawa ko at kaya ko sagutin ang mga katanungan it's all good.
I'm not totally hopeless. Whew.
I am tired. Wanna fall asleep and never wake up kind of tired. I feel so, so, so moody too. Hindi ako makatulog ng maayos. Gusto ko na lang magresign and be done with this stupid schedule.
management: baka kaya pang pag-usapan ito
ayaw ko na mag-usap, i wanna kick something and end it 💢
I need to release some pent up stress and rage, kaso yung tuhod ko kailangan niya pa ng time. I'm just imagining myself playing hit the clown over and over and over until I'm out.
If I had enough passive income, I would not work, period. I would pursue my interests (after finding out what they really are).
been playing rain sounds as bg noise and grabe nakaka-relax pala talaga
Last day today of the first of two consecutive long weekends!
I plan on cleaning up cabinets, closets, and shelves and putting up anything eating up space unnecessarily at Really Really Free.
Dumating yung bill ng insurance with investment chuva. 3 thoughts
-
May paper bill pa talaga sa panahon ngayon.
-
Kailangan magbayad ng insurance dahil yung government natin walang maitutulong kapag namatay ka. Maniningil pa sila ng taxes bago malipat sa mga naiwan mo yung assets mo. The worse the government is, the more insecure the citizens feel, the better it is for insurance companies.

Yung investment portion, naiipon sa isang entity na syang may power kung saan pupunta ang pondo. May power syang magdecide kung anong business ang tutulungan at anong business ang tsutsugihin. At pera namin ginagamit nila.
Some people don't even have emails or don't know how to access them, so it is understandable that paper bills still are a thing.

Ang daming dapat iprocess sa Third World Romance, kahit pa sabihin nating medyo preachy sya at overly explained na. Example yung linyang, "pinakaimportante, pinakasimple pero mahirap yung maging masaya." Nag effort talaga yung creatives to downplay the drama whenever possible. Like dun sa 1st breakdown scene ni Charlie, sinabayan ng nagvibideoke na wala sa tono. Malayo yung shot, hindi yung cliche close up habang nag wawalling. Funny pa kasi humihigop ng cup noodle. Gutom is real.
May confrontation scene pa while serving the customers at sinabayan pa ng Angelus so nagpause sa sagutan para magdasal. Minsan inconvenient talaga ang religion, actually madalas. The devil is in that detail.
Feel good at escapist movie sya. Fine. Kasi nga mahirap maging masaya. Every chance you get is win kahit may pagka delulu na. Ang hindi lang happy ending ay di naparusahan yung isang kapitalista. Wala naman yata nakapansin.
Plus panalo talaga aktingan ni Charlie. Yung mata-mata acting sa pagbukas ng shoebox, ang daming subtext. Dun sa last scene, gusto ko talaga yung marunong magtimpla ng tawa, iyak at kilig sa isang bagsakan lang. I think mas challenging yun sa mata-mata acting.
Recently, YouTube Music updated their Android app, and it's on par with Spotify's app. Mapapa-YT Music o Premium na siguro ako nito, ah. Haha
Youtube Premium is bang for the buck talaga. You get ad-free Youtube along with YT Music!! It's even more sulit kapag kinuha mo family plan.
Yup, sumuko na ako once Google cracked down on the forked YouTube apps. Kapatid ko naman nagbabayad anyway, lol.
May Spotify family din siya, but I don't really use it because I prefer the lossless formats from Tidal and Plexamp. I'd still give YT Music a look later, though, and see if it's good.
I know they offer this since naka-YouTube Red pa sila. Basura lang talaga YT Music before, kaya hindi worthy ang pag-subscribe sa Premium.
May feature ba sa YTmusic mag block ng artist? Kung meron paturo naman. Minsan may gusto akong playlist pero ayaw ko ung ibang musicians dun.
As of now, wala pang feature. You can just "thumbs down" the artist's songs, and the Gugel/Youchub magic do the work.
One of the reasons I created another Google account using my email alias.

I thought safe space ung movie kung saan konti lang manonood like, Third World Romance. Halos isang dosena nga lang kami nanood that screening time, pero may bahing ng bahing sa bandang likod at ubo naman ng ubo sa bandang harap. Second movie pa lang ito na napanood ko sa sinehan this year. Yung di sikat pinapanood ko kasi medyo stressed pa din ako about covid.
Naririnig ko yung mga ubo at bahing nila, pero di ko narinig yung mga tawa nila dun sa ilang mga funny lines. May mga linya si Charlie na gusto ko pumalakpak at sumigaw ng, "Guuurl, boogsh!" Pero seen zone lang sa iba.
Baka panoorin ko uli ito para samahan yung kawavelength ko. May symptoms kasi kaya pass muna sya. Kaso meron pa ba ito next week?
Sana lumabas sya sa mga streaming platforms by Christmas, for another teaching moment sa mga pamangkin ko.
As a cinephile for over a decade, Most audiences are getting worse and worse. Darating ng late (~20 mins), binubuksan ang flashlight habang naglalakad, nagso-scroll ng TikTok at pesbok during screening, naguusap na naooverlap ang movie, and mooore... Wala nang pake mga staff ngayon kahit ako pa mismo na nagsasabi sa kanila.
Kaya ako, mas prefer ko manood ng picture either early screening or last screening. Hindi ko na mabilang ilang beses na ako lang mag-isa sa loob ng sine. Earlier, I watched Blue Beetle on IMAX, and only me and one lady seated afar watching it. At the end, sinabihan ako na, "Oy ikaw pud ata naginusara nagtan-aw ug Oppenheimer kadtong walo ra ta sa sulod? Unta ingon ani lang no? Walay sagabal" Haha.
