Looks like an endless spiral of gun violence. A bit like Schrödingers gun ownership law. You are allowed to own a gun and you are allowed to protect yourself and your family with a gun - but then you are not allowed to do so when the police is at your door, cause they have the right to shoot you if you own a gun and use it to protect yourself.

Just wow. But guns are never the problem, am I right?

Ah and of course ACAB, like seriously

I'm really surprised how well the "flooding the zone with shit" tactics are working out... Get a grip people. Focus on what's really important.

What is the meaning of "signing an offer" then? Is this not a binding contract?

Just curious. Not American. Don't know if this has anything to do with the US.

Edit: or was this a situation where only OP signed an offer and then quit the old job before having the signature of the other party? Would be very unusual, I normally get contracts pre signed by my new employer that only I need to sign

"Elon Musk is a patriot working to fulfill President Trump’s mission to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse," Harrison Fields, a spokesperson for DOGE, said in a statement. "Backbenchers should celebrate the selfless efforts of America’s most innovative entrepreneur, who is dedicating time to support American taxpayers and hold Washington accountable to the people of this great nation.”

Wtf. only the government should be allowed to criticize the government, because everybody else is a backbencher. What are these people, 12 year olds playing Fortnite? Just wow.

And the crazy part of this philanthropy is that there's no guarantee to anything. These oligarchs live like kings amongst men and we can see ourselves lucky to be in the light of their philanthropic sun.

I mean yes thank you Bill Gates for not being such a dipshit like Elon, but I also think that this kind of power should not be in the hands of individuals ever.

Cause as you said: the harm they caused (actively or passively by f.e. not paying taxes in countries outside the US and therefore stealing money from governments and people) can never be fixed by any philanthropy.

You just don't get that kind of rich without being an asshole along the way.

Nothing means anything anymore, you can just write and say whatever you want and half of the population will believe what you say, the other half will cry out about fake news.

When will the aliens finally attack earth to bring us destruction and unity?

I was curious out of reflex for a second, and then I remembered it was "from the Internet" so I better don't

I'm with you in this one, you're not the only person thinking that. But that might be some very modernistic parenting things, where we try to limit screen time as much as possible during the early development phase of our children's brains.

I had the exact same reaction when I read "5 year old" playing Minecraft.

Although I don't share my wife's extreme view where she would prefer no computer games until the age of 12 or something, cause this is just unrealistic in our society. I'd prefer guiding the approach, and I'd probably start somewhere around 5 or 6.

This detail makes all the difference. At least one of you guys will have the energy, and you'll just have to manage your lives very transparently. Rather then expecting things, say them out loud to each other, communication will make a big deal.

You'll be fine, as long as you manage your expectations of the life you will have together clearly.

And although it might seem problematic to your son, just quote " life uuuugh finds a way" and he'll accept you for the dinosaur you think you are. You're both grown ups and don't need each other's opinions on life, but should treat each other with respect.

The comparison to Darth Vader hurts though...
