Welcome to The Shitpost Office

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not SinisterTreat others like fellow employees, not enemies in the breakroom.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Respect people’s time and space. We’re here to laugh, not to loathe

Rule 2: No Prohibited PostageSome packages are simply undeliverable. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content
  • NSFW content must be properly tagged

If you see anything that violates these rules, please report it so we can return it to sender. Otherwise? Have fun, be silly, and enjoy the chaos. The office runs best when everyone’s laughing.... or retching over the stench, at least.

I wouldn't ask my 9YO on a bike at 7:30 am on winter to go to school everyday

Why not? In a lot of the world that's pretty normal.

Winter cycling in Norway

When I was a kid I walked 30-40 minutes to and from school in the winter. I would have preferred to bike, but they didn't clear the bike lanes. In places in Europe they make plowing the bike lanes a priority, so everybody can count on being able to commute by bike.

The place we go to the most is on the other side of mountains 3 hours away by car.

You shouldn't have to rely on a car to get somewhere that's that far away. It's more reasonable to take a train to get that kind of distance.

Groceries would have to be more regular. I currently fill the car and go like once a month or month and a half

Do you not like fresh food? Do you ever eat fruit or vegetables? Or meat that hasn't been frozen?
