– Two days worth of archiving is in the wrong format and taking up ten times more space than usual? Nothing a simple action can’t fix, and while that is automatically doing its thing, let me optimize the entire archive system for use across all platforms and devices, while reducing the storage...

Anonymous asked: "I graduated high school in 2003, the year we invaded Iraq. Many of my friends protested, myself included, many more went to serve. Why? Mostly to pay for college, which costs on average 30%-40% more than it did in 1990. My generation fought and died just to get the right to an affordable education, yours got it handed to you." Didn't you go to university for free?

littledarlinglilith asked: I think at least in Wisconsin, this generation has done so much in our efforts to recall Walker and we actually pay attention politics and try to change things. That's easy to see. We also work for what we have. Things aren't handed to us. Just because our parents may help us out, just because we have an iPhone, it doesn't mean we are lazy and we don't make sacrifices for...

littledarlinglilith asked: Exactly! Each generation is going to think they're superior and perfect and they're going to blame all the other generations for the problems the world faces. The biggest problem is that we are ALL to blame for the good and the bad in the world. We don't know how to work together, join forces, and that's a huge problem. If we all understood that each generation has something to...

littledarlinglilith asked: I find it hilarious that this guy, chucksconsin, is telling us to take responsibility for our shit and yet he can't take responsibility for the shit his generation did. He's saying not to blame others and yet he's blaming us. He has no argument. He's just complaining about how we have it "easier". Um, sorry we do things differently than you did? I don't even...

Before calling 911, check to see if person lying... →
The Dane County 911 Center has been overwhelmed with calls from cellphone users reporting people lying on the grass, not moving, possibly not living.
Yet another day the population of Milwaukee wishes it could join Illinois because of the idiots in the rest of our state…

A Bit Of A Political Rant Regarding Equality:
I’ll tell you what it means to be a Progressive white male in regards to women’s and minority rights: It means believing in the fundamental principal that power and chance for advancement should be shared equally regardless of gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion or any other social identifier within our society, period. It means not being afraid of anyone, their ideas,...

xiaomaomao asked: That rap is memorable! It has the same feel of your spastic high school gym class instructor suffering from a cognitive break. I have seen more rhinestone bedazzled Jesus figurines than the Chelada in Latino markets though. Perhaps their efforts have won over the Beastie Boys demographic instead.

xiaomaomao asked: Conspiracy theory #83475: Bud's version of a michelada might have been created as a completely undrinkable contrast to their regular Bud. Whenever sales drastically decline in a certain market, companies seize the opportunity to manufacture an inferior product to make their original goods seem awesome. Unfortunately for Bud, their beer is already considered an inferior substitute.

– The cooperative side of small businesses is really rewarding, and you’re lucky to find such a good environment. Having a background in art helped me acquire accounting jobs with the small fashion and design companies that I work for. I still wonder if you really need academic training for the arts....

– Likewise, I started an art major too, but my uni was going to cut industrial design so we were all advised to switch out since constructing useful products was too bourgeois for a public university. (They never cut the program. It was just heavily defunded and the standards lowered to a depressing...

Best of luck to you in it, although from one PR professional to another I do think that the people in charge are always going to need the people like us to make them look normal.
My backup plan is probably to go back to one of my previous paths in life either as a starving artist or in politics....
