No. Ostracizing just seems soo much more harmful. It seems kinda backwards to me. What’s an acceptable response and what’s not. That’s all.

No, I’m asking why can’t I just punch a guy who deserves it.

Right! Thank you, this is what I’m looking for.

To clarify: I don’t have an issue. I have a coworker I’d like to punch. The alternative strategies I’m taking because I can’t punch him are leaving me feeling dirty.

My follow-up thought. Would so many people not rather be hit once than ostracized forever from a group?

Isn’t a punch or a slap or a headlock better any social or mental punishment? It becomes almost therapeutic for both parties.

Oh please, show me the officer that arrests the workplace bully.

Because theirs isn’t actually a tree.

He was fine. He had enough starfish DNA to grow his head back.

Of course the fucking Mormons are trying to own it.

Anyone will work if you pay them enough. It’s called supply and demand. You’d think the capitalists could at least pretend to embody their own free market “values”.

Checks religion and skin color of defenders. Nah.

Like I said, their little ceremonies.

I’ll go out on a little limb, it might be sales specific. My company is 100% work from home. All the engineers and product and design work remote, maybe come into the office once a week just because.

The sales team however is strongly encouraged to come in as much as possible. I think it’s a morale thing. Sales teams become these weird cults, maybe necessarily. It’s really hard to pick up the phone and make a call when you’ve been rejected 5 times in a row. The teams little ceremonies are designed to help push through that.

The main issue is that if Pluto is a planet, there’s like 30 or so others that have to be also, for consistency.

It’s actually really awesome and truly helps with my work.

Fuck Israelis, why are they welcome anywhere? Every Israeli, every Russian, should be sent the fuck home.

You could have, you know, not bought and ruined oculus, and destroyed the VR ecosystem.

I was at GDC the year of the acquisition. There were Facebook suits walking around the showroom floor writing checks to sign exclusivity deals with anyone showing off a VR game.

I can’t wait to see the clusterfuck when the blockchains unravel.
