    Yeah, I bastardized the term pretty badly.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_triviality

    It’s like a weird idea factory where 26 year olds who still don’t understand how the world turns go down rabbit holes to hone thoughts to weird points, and then gatekeep the whole thing. It was good money and I learned some stuff, but holy shit I wouldn’t go back.

    Because they’re getting good money, they believe they’re doing it all for themselves and improving the world.

    Sweet summer children.

      I don’t think you bastardized it. It’s becoming standard ‘english’ to manipulate participles and verbs into nouns by adding the ‘er,’ which makes me exceptionally grumpy in some crosswords. I just couldn’t find anything that said ‘bike shedder’ specifically so I wanted to make sure.
