I do 4 day 40 hour weeks and it rules. 10 hour days don’t feel tough at all because you only do four and have three day weekends every week. Hell I end up getting lots of overtime too, love it.

I love my 4 day 40 hour week. Love it. I like the momentum of the extra hours, and with a three day weekend to recover every week? Shiiiiit I can waste all day Friday without ever getting dressed and I still have the whole weekend ahead of me

This anti-democracy propaganda from Republicans is fucking terrifying.
Is this going to be forever? They found they can create loyalty by pushing this most extreme conspiracy, and now that’s their bread and butter?

Reply to The Fermi Paradox and the Possibility of Intelligent Extraterrestrial Life by Beginning-Court1946
I think it’s fairly obvious: life is an inevitable phenomenon, and highly intelligent life follows, but the universe is extremely vast and the conditions for life to exist are rare enough that the physical distances and are literally astronomical against the light speed limit. So there might be several life forms out there capable of seeking out and contacting other life forms, but that’a another level of steep probability- even if there were fifty thousand such life forms, and their search lasted hundreds of thousands of years at near light speeds, the vastness of the universe really just makes the chances of them coming across us and contacting us fairly slim. The speed of light is a pretty strict limit.
