Because they’re also power-hungry assholes who like to watch people scurry around an office on their whim. That and they figure that they’d slack off at home and do nothing, so of course their workers will too, and how would they know?

And the stuff he saw himself. He mentioned in an interview once that he kept his office job for a long time after making it big with Dilbert because he got so much material.
I’ve always thought that Terry Pratchett said it best:
No-one is finally dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away, until the clock wound up winds down, until the wine they made has finished its ferment, until the crop they planted is harvested. The span of someone’s life is only the core of their actual existence.

T. rex was unfeathered (or at least the adults were) but other members of the Tyrannosaurus family were partly or fully feathered. Yutyrannus, for example.

Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•The craziness of women's clothing sizes
3·24 days agoThat’s because most companies cut the patterns out in bulk, so given how fabric wiggles you end up with an inch or two of variance across the group.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If every school shooter in America targeted an Epstein client pedo instead, the problem would be fixed in a few years...
3·28 days agoUnfortunately that just makes them shoot the women instead as punishment for being ‘whores’.

cats@lemmy.world•Neighborhood cat stops by sometimes. Trying to figure out who's cat she is. Attached a note to her collar today. 🤞
3·1 month agoMy aunt’s cat was basically a neighborhood cat lol. I remember once we were taking a stroll around the neighborhood together and happened to look in one of the neighbor’s windows… and there he was, stretched out on the back of the couch, watching football with the neighbor.
When she moved out everyone came by to say goodbye to her cat lol
Seriously, who’s OOP? Leonardo DiCaprio?
1/3? Man, those are rookie numbers. Something like 80% of my home state were members at one time.
(Which makes sense, as back then we had actual laws on the books that made us a ‘whites only’ state.)
You’d think so, but they’ve done studies and there tends to be more marital issues in families where the woman makes more of, or all of, the money.
Personally I agree that it shouldn’t be defined along gender lines. We don’t have kids, but my husband is way better with babies and children than I am. It would make much more sense (if we could afford it) for me to work and him to stay home. But it seems that, society-wise, we have a long way to go.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Would the United States actually risk a Tiananmen Square incident?
6·2 months agoYou mean like they ‘didn’t’ at Kent State?
Don’t kid yourself; they absolutely will. Going by our history, though, if they can they’ll do it to a black neighborhood first.

4·2 months agoThey’ve done it before. They’ll do it again.
And let us not forget the Vanport flood, which the Portland authorities downplayed for decades and used as an excuse to pave over a vibrant community to make a raceway and a golf course. They only recently admitted that there was ‘some’ loss of life.

Technology@lemmy.world•DuckDuckGo poll says 90% responders don't want AIEnglish
2·2 months agoExcept it’s not very good. I turn it off and still get AI pictures and videos, and it gets rid of some pictures I know aren’t AI.
Tell that to the .ml folks lol
Their instance auto-censors them when they use it
Every time the pockets-in-pants thing comes up:
Women in the comments: OMG yes please what we have now sucks
Men in the comments: well acktually…
They want us to all go back to saying things like ‘she’s in a delicate condition’ and shit lol




I mean, what’s mentioned in this thread is what rich people I know do. Plus saw a lot of it in Palm Beach.
