My company laid off 46% of their employees today, and this was after laying off 40% earlier this year. We're down to under 40 people. I was employee number 33 in 2017, at one point we had over 200. This market is rough. I'm glad to still have my job, but I'm seriously going to miss a lot of the people they let go. I'm curious what percentage of companies have had layoffs since 2023. How is everyone else's company doing? Do you feel secure in your future employment or are you worried about shit hitting the fan in the near future?

Anyone in the market for a 2023 Acura Integra? A-Spec technology package with 6-speed manual. Only 5000 miles, garage kept.

No lowball offers. I know what I got.

Looks like my shelves have enough space for my PS2/3/4/5 libraries, but I need to tidy up and organize a bit better before I can be sure that it'll fit my PSP and Vita games

It's not in proper alphabetical order yet, but the basic layout will be:

JP PS2
US PS2
PAL PS2
PS3
PSP
PS4
Vita

Torn on if I'll also put my PS1 games up there or not. Guess it depends how much space is left over after GC/Wii/WiiU(lol)/Switch go up on the sixth rack.

Today I walked along a stretch of beach in Normandy just outside a tiny village near Dieppe and found this amazing WW2 bunker that had fallen off the cliff and into the sea but stayed whole!

It's enormous but it was hard to really get the scale to come across in the photos.

Over 300 kids, ran out of candy, had to close shop early 0_o

Most kids ever

Art the Clown was a huge hit though, I just stood still in my doorway with the porch light on holding the black garbage bag of candy, then when people got close I'd honk the Clown horn, gave it away at the end of the night to one kid who kept coming back.

Kids yelling from down the street 'It's Art, it's Art!', 8 year olds (lol) 'mommy mommy it's Terrifier!' lots of people getting selfies with it, grown teenagers walking up the driveway, looking up, seeing me and then running away looking over their shoulders until they were at least a few houses away.

Good stuff, great night, first time I dressed up, I think the kids got a kick out of it.

Happy Halloween!!!

Hi Shack...

I have some very unfortunate and terrible news to share: My husband, abrasion, took his own life on August 25, 2024.

Many of you know him as this sarcastic, strongly opinionated, asshole-y Shacker. I know he's ruffled a few feathers, alienated people because of disagreements, and even said many controversial things. But I'm here to share with you all, the man I knew and will always love. Here's our story:

Divorce over. Our marriage was almost 3 years. She wanted everything since we started dating. Lost one million dollars because we lived together before we were married and they backdated all earnings to when we started living together. GG Washington State. This is after she got my cat killed by coyotes last month. The only thing I had asked for in the settlement. Paid off her student loans, supported her in grad school, and this is the result.
