    And after looking into it, we find that the Soviets never really achieved communism in anything but name. Once again, like the feudal state they rebelled against before, it was rule by dictatorship, and rations for the people. They just couldn’t give up the idea of a strongman. The people by no means ever owned the means of production in the USSR. Of course, we can never confirm that communism is inherently untenable from their example. The capitalist nations were no help at all, and forced the Soviets to waste resources on a strong military. But even despite their failings, communism was still the best thing to ever happen to Russia. Unfortunately, Russia was also the worst thing that ever happened to communism.











  • I believe it was SAP Concur that my last employer used for filing expenses. Every few months it popped up a notification asking me whether or not I “loved it.” I always answered “no,” because fucking why would I? Then it wanted to know why not. I think that’s inappropriate behavior in a professional setting, and I told it so. Regardless, it kept asking the same thing, so I asked if it wanted me to speak to HR.

    Nothing ever came of it.

    TLDR got sexually harassed by a corpo app.
