This brings back memories. Hairy memories.
Never could figure out if he was drinking his own kool aid or not.
Not just union jobs, but traditionally union industries like auto workers as well. I have a friend that works in a factory in the US south. Not union, but the pay and benefits are close to keep UAW from gaining a foothold. He would complain about them handing out flyers in front of the plant every so often.
After a recent incident that had him sweating bullets over potentially losing his job for something minor (and having to face management and HR alone), I told him to take the leaflet next time. I hope he does.

10/10, well done!
I’m aware. I also have various anxiety disorders and claustrophobia. Thoughts can trigger things just as easily as actual events.
This entire discussion has me on the edge of a panic attack, even though I am by myself and in no imminent danger.
I would leave about 1/4 acre unmowed on the side
If I did that my entire yard would be overgrown, because it’s smaller than that lol. I did let the backyard mostly go wild a few years ago, had an interesting mix of native species and invasive. Invasive won by a landslide, even while manually keeping the English ivy in check. Creeping Charlie and purple deadnettle went everywhere. Some areas eroded so much due to lack of turf roots (either outcompeted or succumbed to the combo of early direct light followed by shade most of the day) that it’s basically just big baked bald spots. One of these years I’m going to try and figure something out to repair it… just need the intersection of time and money.
Also run all those “mosquito control” companies out of town, because they’re killing all the insects on all the properties around wherever they spray
Had a guy knock on my door a few months ago. They were “doing work in the neighborhood” (of course) and offering to treat the yard for carpenter ants. I declined. “It sure would be a shame if your neighbors all got treated and you ended up with an infestation.” Buddy, if all you got is movie mob threats, your career in “sales” is going to go about as well as the last dozen things you tried and failed at.
I got tired just reading your list. Hope you feel better soon.
Sociopathy, mostly.
You’re really on a roll with all of this pedanting.
A Pyrrhic victory is still a victory.

“Regulator angers capital for doing their job” is one of my favorite headlines.
“Today’s findings show that the Lexington Police Department
abandonedcontinued its sacred position of mistrust in the community by routinely violating the constitutional rights of those itwas sworn tomust bind but not protect,” Attorney General Merrick Garland said.
“FTFY” doesn’t apply here. It’s still fucked, but it’s more accurate.
With nobody to use it on. He likely outlived the cretins that framed him.
Please read this next line as if it had alternating/random caps:
“But capitalism improves efficiency!”
I’m on mobile and would rather not deal with my spellcheck “learning” anything today.
Please don’t, we have enough. No need to excavate more.

“The letter A.”
Myself. Which I see as a sign that I need better stuff. I am a low bar.
