It’s better to be pissed off than pissed on

Ah I thought the argument was that there shouldn’t be any natural or social consequences either per the assertion the IWW’s language was ableist

It’s just that the logical conclusion here is that everybody skips work/class/get-togethers/volunteering on days any individual is sick or has problems, and therefore effectively nobody can ever do any work or receive any benefits from any work or community activity of any kind. At some point some things have to start on time, right? From surgeons to airline pilots to garbage collectors to graduate classes to stamp collecting clubs to backyard BBQs, delaying everything until everyone can do everything at the same time just doesnt seem like it would work

Wow, hmmm. I’m someone who makes personal sacrifices in the name of punctuality because I’ve experienced the negative effects of lateness and strive not to externalize those costs to others whenever I can.

I’m going to be thinking about this post for a while because I really want to appreciate and relate to this perspective, because my personal inclinations go: food gets cold and won’t be as good reheated as it was when it was hot the first time. Other people might have woken early or skipped a meal or made other personal sacrifices to be somewhere on time. I see punctuality as a responsibility to my fellow humans. If I say I’ll be somewhere at a certain time, I do my best to do keep my word. So it’s going to take me a while to really process the alternative perspective here.

Nobody fucking asked you.

We both know the truth

Weird guy who admitted to fucking a couch

I miss Chef

RhyMe and sigN are half rhymes

I mean it’s good practice generally just in case, even when it’s not needed it makes it more maintainable

I usually go with YAGNI but shell quoting can get to be a pain so I try to do it right in scripts or aliases

But for a single one-off invocation lol definitely not quoting echo args
