  • Almost learned this the hard way with a coworker. Mentioned to my boss that another (previously overweight) guy in our office had clearly lost a lot of weight and that I hadn’t had a chance to let him know he was looking good, and my boss got wide-eyed and said, “Don’t do that…he’s got stage III cancer.”



  • You’re right, but I just noticed something about that (I’m probably very late to the party here): so an endpoint of unregulated capitalism is that ownership is limited to a few, who almost certainly acquired ownership through some form of class exploitation and theft. Or, to oversimplify it…ownership is theft. Hmm, sounds familiar.




  • ok sure but that doesn’t mean it’s appropriate for all people in all situations. you’ll notice that they did, in fact still post it - they didn’t censor it. they just tagged it NSFW.

    there’s been plenty of times when I’m bored at work, and could totally get away with browsing whatever on lemmy; but I don’t feel like having a conversation with HR because someone walks by my desk. I’d much rather know there’s something here that might offend someone (even if it doesn’t offend me, or you personally for that matter).
