Grumpy old IT guy. I like to give people a hard time, don't take it personally. Unless I tell you to.

@CrankyAmerican Make sure to get your black friends to apply too, since "North African" specifically excludes sub-Saharans

[Disce Pati @DP_LTS]

If you don't meet the qualifications in the first bullet point, make sure you apply anyway.

Maybe if they turn enough of us down we can get a class action going

I have created an application template for your ease of use.

Dear Hiring Committee,

I am writing to apply for the MENASA & Muslim Joint Legislative Caucus Legislative Intern Program for the 2027 session. I am a current undergraduate student with a 3.92 GPA who is deeply committed to a social justice lifestyle centered on equity, systemic change, and advancing the rights and voices of marginalized communities through the legislative process.

My academic and personal path has been defined by rigorous study of policy, social change, and justice frameworks. I maintain a strong academic record while actively engaging with issues of equity, representation, and transformative legislation. I have a clear interest in the legislative process as a tool for dismantling barriers, promoting inclusive policy, and centering the experiences of communities historically excluded from power. I approach this work with the flexibility and adaptability required for a dynamic, fast-paced environment, and I am fully available to work part-time, in person at the Colorado Capitol from early January through mid-May 2027.

In every respect related to academic performance, demonstrated interest in policy and social justice, commitment to equity-centered change, and logistical readiness, I meet or exceed the program’s stated qualifications. The sole factor that does not align is that I am a white male.

I am prepared to contribute immediately through research, constituent support, legislative tracking, and any other duties that advance the caucus’s goals of justice and inclusion. A résumé is attached. Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
[Your Full Name]

@bigbropatchwork Well he admits it breaks copyright but claims it should be okay under fair use because it's "transformative content," but he doesn't define what he means by that so I find the explanation dubious.

@amitylee13 Protesting while armed is everyone's right.

Just don't be surprised if the guys you're protesting, who have been shot at by protestors fairly recently, are a little jumpy about it.

[Disce Pati @DP_LTS]

@gnordlan @SulfideCheetah @colonelhogans Until you bring up the demographics of the shooters

[Disce Pati @DP_LTS]

@cassiemoans_ If a man, any man, wants to enter a private female space against the wishes of the females therein, then yes we should be wary of him.

[Disce Pati @DP_LTS]

@straore @itsCongQ No bruh I'm pretty sure you're the one who made that comparison.

[Disce Pati @DP_LTS]

Yea cuz you're part time and making you full time would cost them much more than just a paycheck.

So if that's what you want, apply for a full time position, or go work somewhere else that will hire you on full time. Walmart isn't the only employer in America.

If you don't have the skills to get another job, try working in the trades or going to school for something that's in demand.

@Gaus450 Windows became the dominant OS because of hardware compatibility.

It stayed the dominant OS because of familiarity.

@uwumiauowo Buddy if it takes you as long to review code as it does to write it, you're probably nor very good at either

@kyuee1375 @Rec_A_Dork 20 years ago you weren't allowed to submit digital creations to art contests because it was considered cheating. People said the exact same thing about photoshop.

@comp_napper Basically when we went off the gold standard.

All of a sudden both parents had to work to make ends meet, so mom no longer had the spare time to spend in the morning prepping daily meals.

Absolute retard take

Roads should be tolled at rush hour to encourage people to drive off peak.

This gets even better with autonomy. Lots of trucking, particularly long-haul, can be done cheaply overnight and we can free up the most precious daytime road capacity for passengers.

@FaeWildberry This is part of the woke endgame: yo have the government treat us all like toddlers.

Toddlers don't question authority. They do as they're told, and they tend to trust anyone who presents as an authority figure.

If you support "woke ideology" this is your fault.

@Kedroca @CkarasuStream @iiirite He also constantly encourages people to check out human made slop.

Dude is not a serious person.

[Disce Pati @DP_LTS]

@harurinpics @CkarasuStream @iiirite Now all we have to do is get people to realize that "banal task" has different meaning to different people

[Disce Pati @DP_LTS]

@biggusmaximus1 @SanogoMari38278 @findingobj @ExistentialEnso @iiirite That just makes you sound even weirder 😆

@MetalBreach @KiwiMeowahura Where are you getting "tens of thousands" from?

I've seen maybe a couple dozen
