@greenhombre @metin - I have seen, in real life, business card one-yup-manship as depicted in _American Psycho_. These are the people who now want to spam me every time I log into LinkedIn.

@Jos_B@mastodon.nl - What is so frustrating is that systematic polls find a majority of USAmericans are liberal, feminist, environmentalist, even progressive, on most issues. But our education and discourse thwarts that, and many of the same people fear labels like feminist, environmentalist, and progressive. And, of course, our election processes thwarts all of this.

@BillySmith @ridetheory - The glory days of _Dilbert_ were when hundreds of people sent their true-to-life work absurdities to him via email. Email was enough of a novelty at the time and he kind of lucked into that.

@PeterLudemann @ridetheory - I was the employee who pinned up Tom Tomorrow and Life in Hell cartoons.

@jensorensen - The last panel gives me some Tom Perkins vibes (and makes me want some orcas). Web engine searches find two pages of gushing memories of Tom Perkins and his yachts before I finally found any mention of his 1996 manslaughter conviction for killing someone in a smaller boat who was in his boat's way.

@awoo - I am of course an Orthodox IBM ThinkPadist, with a dim view of those Lenovo heretics.

@scott@carfree.city - They have a wide, low-branching habit. I think we should plant them in the middle of traffic circles.

@Daojoan@mastodon.social @parismarx@mastodon.online - The media's complicity in Hypeloop should be better known. Every time the California High Speed Rail was in the news, good or bad, Musk would generate a press release in response, promising something impossibly better and unachievably lower cost. Each press release was duly parroted, despite the physical impossibilities therein. 2/2
