A big part of the problem is that management culture is so pumped full of bullshit that we have a class of middle managers with chronic MBA brain who don’t actually critically assess their needs because they’re too busy lining up at the linkedin slop farm for the latest buzzy garbage

What I am urging everyone here to do is sit back, take a deep breath, and let things play out. The worst thing countries can do is escalate against the United States.

Anyone who’s had a twitter post pop off in the x era understands what a snakepit that site is. Wall to wall groypers, r slurs and pronoun jokes. Your shit doesn’t calm down for a week. This place is a magical fairyland. The only static I’ve gotten is some mild idpol callouts and scolds
