A place for optimism, relentless positivity, anti-doomerism, and snuggle sessions.

We're all in this together, and a better world is possible!

This is now also a space for organizing tips for our collective survival as we confront climate change and everything else. Still no doom-posting. We're here to work together, support each other, and boldly face the future.

Rules:

  1. Familiarize yourself with the site-wide Code of Conduct

  2. No doom, no gloom, only bloom. There's plenty of room for doomerism elsewhere. This community is solely for having a positive outlook on the future and spreading good vibes.

  3. Be kind to your fellow users. This also means no arguing in the comm. Arguments and negativity are not conducive to blooming. Constructive discussion is good. No interest-policing. Support your comrades in their joy!

  4. Always share good news. We can't exactly enforce this one, but if you have good news, please share it with us! Keeping happiness and positivity to yourself is the twelfth type of liberalism.

Unless you are self-employed or part of a worker-owned collective, slacking off at work should be the default. "Full on 100% no break working" just means more profits for rich fucks.

I’m half in-office and half out. In-office it’s podcasts and doing work. At home it’s laying in bed watching stuff all day, getting up to do some work every hour or so for five minutes, and still doing more work than anyone else on my team.

I became the vegan chef 2 weeks ago and it's so fucking easy lol oh my god. I was doing 3x as much work cooking dinner for the hot line, now i just make 3 dishes and basically have nothing to do but prep for the next day. then two hours of standing around after that. It's wild. I should have had a whole ass extra person helping me on dinner at all times

I have to imagine not having to deal with raw meat probably makes your job a hundred times easier too. Way fewer health and safety concerns when your ingredients aren't liable to turn into slabs of salmonella if you fuck up.

that isn't really a concern it's more that I'm cooking 3 dishes for like 60ish people instead of 5 dishes and several sides for 200-350

That’s a 1:5 ratio of vegans to omnivores. Where do you live with that many vegans?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

It's not that many vegans but sometimes the non vegans eat my shit bc it's good. I basically cook for 60 but maybe 30-40 eat. I need extra in case they eat like animals and i run out of shit

probably more than one non-vegan chef working at a time
