You couldn't even be bothered to check. There were 2 other democratic candidates. And there are independent candidates.

So yeah, voters have options, they just don't want to use them.

What's the definition of liberals to you?

Always felt like stabbing footballs when practicing juggling. Knowing I felt that kind of anger towards inanimate objects was a big reason not to have kids. Destroying your own property is fine. It's just property. A kid though...

The DNC and the American people are once again to blame for the rise of fascism in their own country. They knew Biden was too old to run again, they knew he's senile, they didn't try and find another candidate, didn't rally behind one, didn't bother to vote for anybody younger.

Keep voting conservative. Someday it'll trickle down. Some day

Some people when they travel: go to a new place to eat the same shit as at home, and if that isn't possible, complain about "how everything is different here". If you wanted more of the same, why did you travel?

Maybe in the US. Go to London and you'll get some really good takeaway from Indian, Pakistani, West Indies, and many other nationalities that are so much better than Mc Donalds. Same goes for pretty much any place outside of the US. Walk into pretty much any bakery in France, Croatia, Lithuania, Finland or Poland and they'll have better stuff.

Answered: Is there such a thing as "overqualified"? (fedia.io)

Or is it just a term made up to find an easier reason to reject job applicants?

So it looks like the consensus is "overqualified" is a euphemism for

  • "I'm afraid you'll leave this job because I'm assuming you'll have better chances elsewhere" aka "you won't accept being my slave forever due to lack of opportunities"
  • "I'm afraid you might actually understand how shitty it is here and want to improve things. can't have that"
  • "I don't want to figure out how much to pay you when you know your worth"
  • "You cost too much"
  • "I have other reasons, but won't say them"

Wouldn't they benefit from more people? Of course it would come with the condition of learning the language at an acceptable level and that being tied to residency.

Sometimes I click on instances to check them out, but feddit.de has consistently been returning a 500 error however there are people posting from there. What kind of magic is this? Have the Germans figured out how to have a private instance that's somehow still connected to the fediverse?
