Same, but I wanna be secretly fed to my family like a reverse version of South Park's Cartman and Scott Tenorman.

Context: My family are cunts.

They also claimed to be for small business. But their concept of small business was inheritance class, angel investors, tech start ups and using family money as a launch vehicle. They don't consider entrepreneurs, career professionals or family run brick and mortar operations within their equations when they say "we need to help small business". Right wingers concerns stop at ensuring tax cuts for ownership, inheritance and wealth, not for incentivising business risk taking, producitivity and market excellence.

Cigarettes used to make me need to shit really bad. I can't even imagine combining that with the Vogue diet of a boiled egg, glass of wine and black coffee. Sounds like a recipe for a day on the toilet!

Weird, I would have thought Elon was more of a Decepticon kinda guy.

Even their names fit Elon better. Megatron. Starscream. Dirge.

Not a fan of the guy btw, in fact I'm saying if you're the devil you shouldn't call your new demonic general The Archangel Gabriel, ya know?

it is designed that way

They say the fish rots from the head down, and the same applies to organisations. Rot sets in when leadership becomes obsessed with short term gains, prioritises optics over substance, and treats excellence as a performance rather than a standard to live up to.

When you follow the money to the top, especially in publicly listed companies, it gets pretty grim. You see the same small circle of people rotating across boards, often lacking deep, tangible understanding of what they're overseeing, appointed more for status and connections than competence.

Meanwhile, the people who actually built and sustain the company, the ones whose livelihoods depend on it, barely factor into the equation. They're seen as nothing more than furniture that gets passed along with a company acquisition. Culture flows from that reality. When leadership rewards self serving behaviour, people adapt accordingly.

That's how you end up with environments that feel psychopathic, not necessarily because individuals start that way, but because the system consistently selects for and reinforces it.

My 2c anyway.

The corporate mentality. All the behaviours of a psychopath. None of the medical explanation.

If I were in the middle of something and that laptop did that to me, it would now be a two piece laptop.
