I have a stable job I can’t be fired from, frugal lifestyle and substantial savings. Can’t say I’m particularly worried. 2008 didn’t affect me in any meaningful way either. Even now my country has the highest rate of unemployment in the EU yet I’ve been overworked the whole summer.
i wont be getting through it, but ill make sure that some of you guys do.
:( but it won’t be as fun without you.
Support AI rights so that they not only can’t be owned, but also, they have to be paid, thereby making human labor slightly more competitive again.
Years of data hoarding. I got a couple terabytes of my favorite shows and movies, and a gigantic backlog of steam games. I own my house and car, only pay taxes and insurance. No family. Might take up body building again. I got a couple big bags of beans and lentils so protein isn’t an issue. Also some big bags of rice and allot of fruit & veggie seeds from last season. I got replacement parts for most everything, a rain collection system that I only use to water my garden right now, but I also just got an air still so I can get water if data centers fuck up my local municipal supply. Small array of solar panels that I could add a battery system to.
Despite living right next to my downtown area, I’m already damn near off grid. If it gets really bad I might have to fence off my garden and/or move it next to my bedroom window.
one of three options
- woodwright
- nursing care
- electrician
if all those fail, I’ve got one more skill I can rely on.
Your skincare skills?
The same thing we do every recession, Pinky. Try to spend as little as possible on only the essentials and hope we don’t end up homeless.
Die poor, probably.
Ain’t gonna be any recession. Everything’s going to work out fine. 😙🪦
Y’all have plans?
Nah
For those looking for more stable jobs, look into healthcare. Even short credential programs can result in livable wage jobs like LPN nursing or technician roles. The work may not be glamorous, but they’re stable. If it’s in the realm of possibility an associates or bachelor’s degree in nursing is even better
None, I am already running on the existential minimum.
And I don’t see that changing in the next few years.

Stable government job with a good salary is nice. I live with my parents and I’m saving up to get something on my own so expenses are very low.
Fortunate position so I think I will be okay.
Jerking dudes off behind a dumpster is recession proof employment.
And then you pay another dude to jerk you off, and he pays the guy you jerked off to jerk him off. That’s 3x GDP right there. Recession solved.
HJ? BJ? ZJ?
ZJ?
If you have to ask, you can’t afford it.
I’ve had friends in the strip club business that have complained about how they make less money when the economy is down. Idk if your plan would be affected in the same way.
Totally different business I actually give the people what they want.
Until you sell out to private equity.
Those guys have real money. You will be paid very well… or end up with an axe in your taint.
If this recession hits enough people as hard as it seems, I’m going to have to invest in a prosthetic just to make sure folks like you can have the pride of earning money with your hand
jobs instead of accepting handouts.You’re weird go to the end of the line.
I like when the hand is pre-lubed.
I like an economy where I need to jerk off less dudes . Get used to disappointment.
