    I have a tailored suit in my closet, but there’s no way in fuck I’m showing up to work in that suit or any other suit.

    For one, I work from home and I want to actually be comfortable. For two, if I was going into the office, I would ruin it at some point crawling under desks and behind racks and shit.

    Casual clothes killed most ironing but ain’t nobody showing up in a wrinkled suit.

    Unless you’re upper management or going to a wedding/funeral/formal event, why would you even wear a suit? In the last decade I’ve worn my suit 3 or 4 times in the last decade, and they were all weddings or funerals.








  • Only what you assume. I’m voting for Biden.

    I’m glad to hear that. I apologize for lumping you in with those pushing the ‘dont vote blue’ bullshit while professing* their opposition to genocide. As I said above, that’s the virtue signalling I’m talking about, and that’s exactly what that behavior is.

    I’m not asking anyone to vote for Trump, to not vote, or to vote third party. In this very thread I’ve said to vote for Biden. Not that you care.

    I’m not going to spend 30 minutes to an hour on every person replies to me with what appears to be virtue signaling to not vote left to see if they’re actually voting Biden. Again, I apologize for lumping you in with the rest of those. But given the quantity of that behavior it is not out of line to assume.

    The only reason I ask people to vote for Biden is because I care about genocide. I want to stop the genocide as much as I can, and prevent a genocide from coming here to our shores. I have family and friends who are LGBT+, and I am afraid for their safety and lives if Trump were to be elected.

    And for anybody who pretends that they care about that, while pushing behaviors that actively sabotage their stated goals, I am absolutely going to call out as virtue signalling because that’s what it is. I want to see people actually take actions that align with what they say they believe, not just talk about it while sabotaging their goals through messaging pushed by their opposition as well.


  • Are you planning on voting for the candidate who is going to be the lesser evil and minimize the harm, or are you going throw it away on a protest vote/not vote at all?

    Because if you’re doing the latter, you’re not opposing genocide, you’re abdicating your opposition by not opposing the person who wants to finish the job. Not voting against trump on the general election while professing* to oppose genocide is virtue signalling because you’re explicitly and intentionally not doing the one thing that will have the most effect on the genocide.
