I know Lemmy has the ACAB sentinment, and I get it, I don't trust them either. But real talk tho, there are some scenarios where you might not have other options.

So... the question is: When, if ever, would you call for law enforcement? And if you distrust law enforcement, is there ever a situation where it gets so bad that you just have to risk involving law enforcement?

I can't think of a reason for the extra hassle and expense.

Url looks suss. Seems kinda sophisticated for the usual ups fishing scam. Here's the text message I got leading here.

"Wishing you a bright and sunny day!" Lol, I almost want to help this guy by explaining that UPS and American companies in general have disdain for their customers and would never wish them to have anything that would not benefit the company.

I was in 5th grade when my dad told me about the Nuremberg trials and the subsequent Milgram experiments.

Edit Wtf you sick perverts, I was talking about when your parents talk to you about authority bias and how you need to be suspicious of power structures that tell you to do things that you would normally consider horrible acts.

Jesus you can't talk about Nazis without someone dragging out Sex Ed these days smh

Lads I am CHEESED to ask this question, what is your favourite kind of cheese?

My favourite all time is the classic cranberry Wensleydale. That shit is fruity, tangy and melts in your mouth.

Lets say you live in a world where the world government has decided people are getting too addicted to the internet and ordered the internet to be shut down for 5 years. The 100 GB of storage is all you have (excluding essential system files for your Operating System). You have 24 hours before the internet is getting shut down. What do you download?

  • Your clothes and basic personal items (the things you take with you everytime you leave the house) will teleport with you, but nothing else.

I'm in the U.S. but interviewing for UK jobs since we're emigrating in January, which means all of my interviews are remote. I've only had a couple so far and only one has been via video, the other just phone, but I realized I don't actually know the protocol here.

I'm in a creative field in the U.S. and the advice I keep being given here is to just wear a shirt and tie to an interview and not a suit because (especially since I'm in my late 40s) it makes you look too old, out-of-touch and grim for a creative position. I actually started getting more work when I ditched the suit for interviews in the U.S., so apparently that was good advice.

But I have another UK interview tomorrow and I'm thinking that maybe they'll see that the opposite way- that if I don't wear a suit, I'm not serious about wanting the job.

So what's the protocol here? Any advice would be appreciated thanks.
