bc some people just mindlessly trust the franchises. Kelly had a cartoon about this.

Looks like it’s free on dailymotion: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7zdlzz (via !fullmoviesonyoutube@lemm.ee)

The Quick And The Dead is clearly the best movie he’s in.

And yeah, anyone smart enough to “brave the fediverse” is smart enough to figure out how to watch it for free.

Google is like a useful acquaintance who inevitably one day will pull a knife and threaten to cut you. You have to be ready to leave at a moment’s notice.

Truly, we have left the era of irony and entered the era of farce.

From the title “Junior Video Editor” and your description of the salary you proposed it sounds like this is an entry-level job that’ll probably go to someone fresh out of school.

It’s hard to read too much into it because this might just be a form letter, but it sounds like they genuinely thought you were a good candidate but they were looking for a more junior position. Sometimes this is dictated by their budget available.

Even if this is a form letter, they probably have a letter for the case where the salary was OK but they never want to hear from the candidate again. So you didn’t get that letter, at least!

It looks like this was a “near miss”. It’s discouraging, but keep at it, you can do it.

you can use kbin.earth (and presumably mbin?) to see the upvotes, even if you don’t have an account there. e.g.:

admittedly I’ve been watching a lot of Mexican telenovelas recently… but I think the point is valid!

wait, this is really you? fam, this isn’t mildly infuriating, this is massively worrying. you need to get your friends together and have an intervention with your sister – especially if Hamza’s likely to disappear when your sister inevitably gets pregnant. Besides, if he’s gaslighting her about this, who knows what other kind of emotional abuse he’s doing to her.

Job hunting is so fucking demoralizing.

Hang in there, fam! When you get that first job offer it’ll be worth it.

Sometimes hard refresh wasn’t enough and I had to actually quit firefox (which also cleared cookies) and try again. Doesn’t happen too often tho.

Hey if you’re trolling you should check out the !chadmctruthstruth@lemmy.world community, I think you’d like it.

This sounds like the beginning of a telenovela or a “Law and Order: Special Victims Unit” episode.

I disagree, but your post is thoughtful. I’ll just point out:

Only fools at the bottom fail to see the social classes and caste systems in all societies.

In my country, people of all classes fail to see the social classes.

Hey! Did you make it there OK? Have you learned to play cricket yet?

And NOT having a smartphone will be even more suspicious… “What are you trying to hide? you must have a smartphone hidden somewhere… where is it?”

This is the kind of dad joke we need more of.

The contradiction is that if you buy a new object every time you do end up with lots of objects sitting in your cellar or attic looking like a dumpster. And nobody’s keeping a checkerboard for a century – your heirs will just throw it in a landfill.

If you make something yourself, at least you spent some time constructing it during which you learn something and keep your mind active. Ideally you use things you have laying around the house and when you’re done the thing can be re-used for a future project or recycled. And every once in a while you make something that’s a little different and you have something new.

But if it makes you feel any better, your side is winning. People are indeed buying Super Soakers instead of just using a hose. And to convince them, there are ads everywhere.
