Depends on state/country. Plus unemployment is a pain in the ass and he will be getting paychecks from the new employer way before he gets anything from unemployment.

But in theory depending on where you are, yes, that would trigger unemployment. Some companies will walk you out but still pay the two weeks out just to avoid the unemployment hassle.

dont get me wrong, i agree that trauma can really fuck you up.  particularly violently induced cptsd, but i still subsribe to the concept that,

all of this.  this.. capitalist-agrarian/techno-imperialist  civilization thing we are doing is a collective delerious nightmare and it only makes sense if youre not conscious. if you somehow are able to exist in it without feeling some kind of anxiety or depression, theres probably something seriously wrong with you. 

i take solace in that actually.  i dont know shit about fuck, but the one thing i know for damn certain is that nobody knows shit about fuck.  do whatever you want.  you dont need anyones permission. just dont hurt anybody.

Being able to recognize it for what it is, and somewhat distance yourself and avoid spiralling (while still allowing for some righteous anger and worry) helps.  Not allowing it to destroy your joy for life is a choice.

Reading someone who gets it, and still has hope (despite a serious cancer diagnosis) helps too: https://pluralistic.net/ (Cory Doctorow)

Been away for a while, but I really like your contributions here, Beef.  Watched all your videos :grin:.  Your lab partner is pretty and asks very educationally appropriate questions.  :lol:

People’s recognition of supposed “authority” is the ultimate problem. Most of this is because of rightful fear, but some of it is complacency. Revolution doesn’t have to be violet, but it can’t be a bunch of hippies in a circle. I’ve come to learn that social change often starts with art and music. Which is why AI acceptance is so concerning to me. However, we got this. The narrative is starting to change and non-compliance is beginning again. Young people are starting garage bands again. That is a very good sign.

Beef's, Astro's, andymyc's, and my idea of a perfect world would probably not align exactly. So what is it that we are revolting against, exactly? Just curious. Every version of our world has a group that thinks it's the worst version since versions existed. Well, since monkeys were able to realize they thought they had a better idea than the alpha anyway.

i love that question actually.  forget for a moment that i have any opinion of these various versions ethically speaking.  would the "perfect world" not be the world that is sustainable?  The world that minimizes suffering and death?

do people ever ask "what is the agricultural revolution?  what are we revolting against and what happens when a victor is decided"?

why did cain kill his own brother abel? why did god favor abel's offering? 

those are the questions.

Ok. I see. I was thinking of revolution in a military sense.

If these are the questions, is there an answer? My pea brain sees them as rhetorical.  Do you have an answer?

I’m tellin ya, friends, I think we’re all bits of the same being that is everything, but we’re wearing “earth suits” while we’re here for about 80 years. When the suit pops, we’ll go back to being everything again, until the next time. Like an “Earth vacation”.

Just look now at what a mess we’ve made of our Earth vacation: we went from living ignorant and naked in eden to hating and killing each other over differences in opinion in the span of about a million years. Seems to me we’re about 180 degrees from how it really oughta be: we oughta be hanging out in the forest vibing on nature, but instead we work our asses off due to economic terror*sm, wrought by a powerful few. Right now, the strain is on the backs of all the “common” people for the fiscal benefits of those few, as well.  It is all we have ever known.

isn’t that just completely astonishing? Like a fucking parody of what we thought the govt was supposed to be about. Maybe, truly, only for our entertainment while unwittingly enslaved by the invisible hand of the puppeteers.

yeah for sure i have answers.  just most people dont want to hear them.  most people assume that because ive studied history and religion that im a religious zealout or that my emotions dictate my understanding of the world. 

so to answer, "yes" the most perfect world is one that minimizes suffering.  again, pretend im just a robot and i dont have an opinion.  good and evil are human constructs. we werent meant to eat the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil.  this was the beginning of the revolution.

the agricultural revolution is an ongoing human revolt against our own planet and our natural place in it. the assertion that "god created man to conquer the earth, and created the earth for man to conquer" stems from a 3500 year old declaration that we--man--got it all figured out.

again good and evil are only a human construct but does anyone stop to wonder if there is something inherently wrong with growing chickens in a dark warehouse; burning their beaks off so they cant peck eachothers eyes out?
i think we do.  i think it gives us certain anxieties. i think its its madness and we all silently agree to it. I think deep down we all know theres something deeply dark about it but what can we do? not much. To wake in the morning and do our jobs is a violation of the natural world but the alternative is hard to look at.

cain killed his own brother because he was in the way of progress.  god favored abel's meek offering of a spring lamb because while it was less valuable than cain's gift, it was all abel really had.  jealous, cain destroys his own brother because their interests were at odds with one another for cain had eaten from the tree of knowledge of good and evil.  cain had it all figured out and his brother was just a stupid shepard. 

its a 3500 year old allegory used by non literate nomads to describe to their children why the agrarians were such dicks, and why god will always love them more.  Its the story of us, and the agricultural revolution. 

we are cain.  we still think we have it all figured out.  our brother is dead and our numbers grow exponentially.  in the 60s, our population was 3billion--higher than it had ever been in all of human history. now at 8.2 billion, people still think weve got it all figured out.  the planet is choking out entire species at unprecedented rates and we worship  billionaires praying for technology to solve all of our problems like praying for sticks and leaves to dam a flooding river.

There is no "answer".  there is no technology or program that will make everything okay.  The agricultiral revolution ends when we lose.

I was watching a different prophecy, and we are just 4 years away from Skynet sending a terminator back to 1985 to kill Sarah Connor.

Governments have always been a cloak of the rich. But when those governments are supplanted and a new group takes over, the government becomes a cloak for the new rich.

Something is off in our dna. It seems anyone with a degree of chutzpah rarely uses it for the benefit of others. That’s where mushrooms come in. Make these fuckers seeking office go on a month-long retreat in the desert and eat 5g+ of strong cubes surrounded by a group of 12 people representing the 12 “classes” of who they represent. That’s just the first step to run. 

Voting is mostly a joke. A popularity contest. There is no vetting. No rites of passage have to be undertaken.  Democracy died the moment it first attempted to pick a football team in gym class.
