Star Trek: Discovery
Urgh. This week's episode was pretty bad. It owes Quark 100 bars of gold-pressed latinum just for the privilege of even being allowed to exist.
- Watch DS9 'House of Quark' as an antidote. It has it all. QUARK. ROM. GOWRON and HOT KLINGON.tank02

- I have selective memory (read: intentional forgetfulness) of DS9's Ferengi eps, but I do remember House of Quark.Continuity

I went down to the pub last night here in Leeds to see some band play. They were called Fatchops and were great. Outside some Sikh guy was being quite contentious about his beliefs and was getting quite aggro. He wanted to buy everyone tequila and kept telling us how much money he'd spent. A proper dick yeah? After chatting to him he admitted his wife died 3 months ago and he was a mess so I chatting a bit about it and gave him a lift home. There's always a reason why people are being angry or frustrated, and sadly for this guy his life was falling apart a day at a time.
Happy Friday guys. x
- Definitely something that has sunk in to me lately. The only reason anyone is ever nasty or horrible is because they're in pain and have been hurt themselvesset
- Certainly helps you empathise with everyone on an equal playing field, I think. Look how rescue dogs behave... They just need a bit of love.set
- For sure man. It's not so hard to be nice, but it's easy to lose your way to anger and depression.Ianbolton

Opioid maker used rap video to push powerful painkiller
Employees at a drug company accused of bribing doctors rapped and danced around a person dressed as a bottle of the highly addictive fentanyl spray in a video meant to motivate sales reps to push the drug.
- and?PonyBoy
- Sales reps are going to push the fucking drug regardless of some stupid internal motivational promo (It's their job)... I'll ask again... and?PonyBoy
- You're right...nothing to see here.
Just a totally normal healthy society ;)yuekit - Companies do this internal motivational (whatever you want to call it) all the time to stir up their employees... doesn't have much to do w/bribing etc.PonyBoy
- "They’re charged with scheming to pay doctors bribes and kickbacks in exchange for prescriptions of the opioid meant for cancer patients with severe pain."...PonyBoy
- ... that's your story... not some stupid internal rap motivational stuff... I really don't understand why they'd report on that aspect... very weird.PonyBoy
- Did you know that more Americans are now dying from overdoses (mostly opiods) each year than died in the entire Vietnam war? Amazing...yuekit
- What does that have to do w/using a 'rap' to motivate a sales team? Again... the story is 'scheming to pay doctors bribes and kickbacks'...PonyBoy
- ... every 'large' company does these silly internal sales rallies... I still am lost as to why that's a story.PonyBoy
- Maybe you wouldn't expect a shitty rap promo video for a serious drug that is easy to overdose and die from...?yuekit
- To motivate an internal sales team? I've been dragged to titty bars w/cocaine, heroin and every other fuck vice you can toss at some 20-something...PonyBoy
- ... money-grubbing sales staff (male and female). It's actually shit like that that made me go back to school for graphic crap in my mid 20's. :)PonyBoy
- Again... this is 'business as usual' to motivate any sales team, dude. The story should be focused on the bribes and kickbacks... not what...PonyBoy
- ... is used to to motivate the fucking sales team. The AP blew it here. There is no shock if you've spent anytime in the 'real world' I guess.PonyBoy
- and here i thought i had issues... O,,oimbecile
- this is 'business as usual'
And you think it's normal and good for the business of health care to be run like a used car dealership? lolyuekit - I didn't say I thought it was 'good'... I even said I bailed on this world back in the day as I alluded to it being gross. But if you're 'shocked' by this...PonyBoy
- ... and by 'this' I mean Sales Motivational Techniques like some dumb rap... then you're easily shocked.PonyBoy
- A rap used in a corporation to motivate a sales team is definitely 'business as usual'... bribes and kickbacks are not. Focus on that.PonyBoy
- lol imbecilefuturefood
- would have gotten so much outrage and backlash in canada.pango
- the movie Office Space is pretty real to life (that's why it's funny) dorky shit from awkward forced birthday parties to shitty internal motivational rallies.PonyBoy
- getting upset over a corpo product (whatever it is) characterized in a tacky fashion and put to a rap is a bit silly.PonyBoy
- Go Patriots!utopian
- Did this tacky motivational rap cause bribes and kickbacks?PonyBoy
- kill it with fireMilan
- Questionable direction. Makes you wonder if this was their poor attempt trying to appeal to kids.pango
- it's a video meant to motivate sales reps, pango... hasn't a thing to do w/nor would ever be seen by kidsPonyBoy
- why you defending this so much?inteliboy
- why are they marketing it to sales rep like they market it kids? are their sales rep kids? is this why pharma industry is kind of fucked up because sales repspango
- are kids? really confused is all.pango
- Yeah this is a weird hill to die on. Maybe PonyBoy’s whole business is creating corporate motivational rap videosyuekit
- You make it sound like I approve of this. All I have said is how confusing it is that this is even a story given it has nothing to do with bribes and kickbacks.PonyBoy
- Anybody who has worked for a large corporation has had to sit through stupid internal sales bullshit like this... It is nothing new. It is almost always tacky.PonyBoy
- again... Is this stupid Internal sales rap the cause of a bunch of bribes and kickbacks?PonyBoy
- Take away this serious crimes of these bribes and kickbacks and you are left with a tacky internal sales presentation as your story... Which is a non-story.PonyBoy
- If you guys can’t tell the difference between an internal sales tool (a tacky one at that) and an actual advertisement then I don’t know why I am typing this :)PonyBoy
- Intelli... haven’t defended a thing. I’m pointing out that this article is going after the wrong story... That is all. Focus on the bribes and kickbacks...PonyBoy
- ... Not on some stupid internal sales presentation that never sees the light of day until the AP gets their hand on it to try and shock us.PonyBoy
- The sales reps sold to doctors and other Legal pharmaceutical distribution. This was never marketing for the public.PonyBoy
- You should be shocked that doctors excepted bribes and kickbacks... Not that some stupid rap video was used in an internal sales presentation.PonyBoy
- *accepted ( sorry, I am talking into my phone As typing with my thumbs gets tedious)PonyBoy
- Ya I'm only talking about the rap.
Does that shit actually work as a sales tool? LOLpango - pango... Think Steve Ballmer... "Developers! Developers! Developers!" That shit works for the right people. Corpo Sales teams are basically greedy men/women...PonyBoy
- ...right off the street. No experience whatsoever. They're easily influenced people usually w/only dollar signs in their eyes—yes, shit like that rap works. :-/PonyBoy
- No wonder the industry is wack...pango
- yeah fuck it, ponyboy you're a worthless piece of shit. go fuck yourself.imbecile
- I love you, imbby... <3
*pinches your cute lil chubby cheeks... SO CUTE!PonyBoy

I'm thinking of starting an instagram to promote myself.
People say post 1 photo a day.
How do I get followers? How should I start?
Do I follow clients I want? Peers I respect?
Is it weird if I start following other designers I don't know personally?
How do I get people to follow me? Hashtags?
- lol yes you must only follow people you know personally otherwise its super weird and creepy OKset
- Google Gary V he has some good instagram adviceset
- its a weird thing people do. they mass follow whole bunch of people and that somehow makes them feel obligated to follow you.pango
