Note to self, stay off bluesky when sports are not being played.

they want you to stop drinking gasoline because they want all the gasoline but you cant let them you need to bring the gasoline lattes to the interview to show dominance

Getting the working class ready for water shortages from, but not limited to: data center demand, landscaping, agriculture

It’s low hanging fruit and gives them something to do other than their jobs

Water is generally free, and profit margins on drinks keep a lot of restaurants afloat. As budgets are getting tighter people aren’t buying thing like expensive coffees, the rich need you to consume

Tank girl or Mad Max, anyway it won't be a good future

there’s a war on beverages

"Do not, my friends, become addicted to Dunkin', it will take hold of you and you will resent its absence!"

Awwwww, I loved the little eggs

It's as simple as them not wanting us to have one single, solitary fucking thing.

Probably it’s the algorithm-driven CEO gripe of the month covering a real symptom if our shitty society, like Avocado Toast years ago. You can’t predict what takes off in corporate-run media like this. If it gets more attention we’ll have to suffer through more of this for years.

I just love the way he says “warter”

The slop centers need water. You don't.

My daughter & sister both have medical conditions that need them to haul around a larger sized water bottle w/ them to have on hand, which is a pretty common situation. Now that companies & public spaces are short on water fountains, water coolers & kitchenettes, yeah you have to haul water around.

thirst brats

Maybe they are all being directed by AI?

WHO FUCKING WEARS PANTYHOSE

Reactionary vibe posting, Iced coffee is the drink of soft woke millenials, water drinking obsession is also seen as moralizing from the left.

Because while they're throwing away jobs, they're also using up all of the water... preparing you to be a dry-mouthed unemployed fool.

Being told not to drink water by the Wall Street Journal immediately made me grab my neglected water bottle from beside me and drain half of it. Hmm. Maybe I *am* a contrarian.

People often worry about coffee dehydrating them. Maybe they want to sell more coffee to go getters. I don't think whether it's appropriate to bring coffee to a job interview is a debatable question. What interview would care that you had an iced coffee with you, besides maybe Celestial Seasonings?

Anti treat mentality, getting coffee is the new Avacado toast ig?

The machine needs your fluids! *schloorrrp!*

This, this is what it's manufacturing consent for

Because if you’re staying hydrated then you’ll need to take a Personal Needs Break. And you’ll be stealing time they want to carry on overworking you.

Probably... bsky.app/profile/alys...

Please stop drinking beverages you plebes we need it for the data centers

Women are more likely to have water bottles and iced beverages.

Wapo equating policing a woman's appearance with asking a man to not expose people to secondhand smoke is foul, we've backslid so fucking far I swear

The answer: No. Because while he did ask permission to smoke, as well as kiss ladies' hands, he also fought the Nazis (and the Russians).

ur too hydrated, what r the dada senters suppos to drink :(

im parchmaxxing

"Is it unprofessional for the hard working slave class to be distracting themselves from their work with frivolous diversions such as "needing" "food" and "water" and "rest"?"

They have already started. Texass already banned water breaks for workers, even in extreme heat. The far right want to eliminate every semblance of workers rights.

"Water is for data centres, not people"

And they're still better than AI.

"Our AI Centers are thirsty, and you're on company time, so shut up and work."

They just want to dissuade us from anything that could be construed as comfort, don’t they? Well, to that, I say: fuck you, billionaires. How ‘bout *you* stop sucking up tons of water for to power all those stupid data centers?

Probably just the pet peeve of someone in the bn-class. Opinion pieces in these outlets have been the r/AITA for them for a good while, except it's more of a r/ImTheCenterOfTheUniverse. It's pretty incredible what kind of petty stuff they get worked up about.

"Maybe you can get away with just sipping from a smaller water bottle" is like. the kindest interpretation of that headline, and that still feels kinda "but why do you care"

well the latter is a direct response to the discourse of the week regarding like.. people saying gen z acts with complete disregard for their precious social etiquette at job interviews. fun stuff. and then the former is just the sort of article you would see in a tabloid magazine

Why would anyone even engage with that crap? If you want a drink, get a drink! If you don't, don't! Are people really that incapable of thinking for themselves?

cute water bottles and iced coffee are things women enjoy...

Big Dry is coming for us

The Basilisk thirsts for all liquids, and will punish all who withhold them

If the drink connection is coincidental the remainder is just divorced boomer dad misogyny shit. "Why my teen daughter need specific brand of water bottle?" "Why womans so obsessed with sweetened cold coffee drinks?"

Nobody ever worries that maybe efforts to ban trans people from using the restroom are just the first group to be targeted

They need all the water for their data centers

Someone probably shared a scientific study about executive brain function and hydration in the evil billionaire group chat.

i also wonder why the second one is written by someone who is 140 years old

This is the terrifying answer

sure it's about data centers, they are the reasons you click on it and write comments after all

big dry at it again

These are the full-grown adults who admit in public they can't find their way home?

No more gin and tonics at the job interview ☹️

Even more privatization of the water supply.

The media is in the pocket of big kidney stone

If that's why you feel the need to light up a cigarette, you should probably not be going to a job interview right now.

Interview Advice Ladies: Perfectly styled hair. Thoughtfully applied makeup. A tasteful dress or conservative top with knee length skirt. Light perfume is ideal. Gentlemen: Try to shower beforehand if possible. Don't pull your dick out mid-interview.

I thought we all agreed, as a society, 'pantyhose' were off the table back in the '90s I'm not going back and you can't make me LOL

I thought all US cities had indoor smoking bans anyway?

I would have pegged the second as simply contempt for workers - even more for people trying to *get* a job - but if it happens a third time I'm going to be worried.

They extract value out of your labour at the cost of your suffering, and when there's no value left they make sure you still suffer the full amount, just because they can. It's about power.

all that water youre wasting by drinking? that could be going to starving data centers. think about it, all youll do is piss it away again practically wasting it. when data centers could use it to make billionaires so many extra pennies /s

💯 yeah There's a reason they're excited about the prospect of buying a $100,000 robot that breaks in 6 months to do menial labor instead of just hiring someone for $10 an hour

"What if you just ate fucking sand, then you could buy all the sand from us."

The Great Thirstening is already upon us

somebody with a childhood shrunken brain wrote this anti-water post
