You ever show up to an old job and get a solid reminder why you don't want to be there...

There is literally ONE (1) building in my town that I hate because of this and no one seems to care!

So it's across the the street from a Walmart (what isn't now) but it is surrounded with a 10 ft iron fence. It's is one of the few 2 story buildings in town and the only 2 story in the area. Has more security cameras than the banks in town that you can see from the outside.

It has 2 keypad entrances, 1 large gate for the workers who drive in at 8:00 am and eave at 5:00 pm (I only know this cause I used to work at the Walmart and noticed over time) Whatever they work on must be digital as there is a small group of workers (20 ish guessing by parking size that I can see from the outside) and a small building. No product seems to enter or leave physically.

The second entrance is for guests. And this is what really, REALLY, really gets me. The guest entrance has small parking, about 8 spots, almost always empty. Never full. I don't think I have ever seen more than 2 cars there. But to get in, there is a keypad door, like the gate, (which I assume also has a speaker as I know it does have a camera that I have seen driving by.)

Now assuming you get passed the gate or door, both are still far from The Building! That just got you into The Fence. The Building is a large distance from the guest door. The worker parking is close to The Building but far from the gate entrance.

No clue what is needed to enter The Building cause I can't ever get that close but, again, 2 separate entry for workers and guests. Due to geography, workers enter on the bottom floor and guests enter on the top floor. This place literally has more security than our city hall and FBI office.

Now, I know, LOGICALLY, this just sounds like a private business that likes\needs their security\privacy. yes. sure. fine. I wish it was that simple. If it was that, it wouldn't rot in my brain.

But the thing is, whatever this building is,

There is no logo.

There is no sign.

There is no business name.

The only external marking is just the street number.

And I have searched the address with my limited resources. again, no listings.

If it was just a business that needed security, it would still have a name. Even if it was a government building, it would have a name on the building or a small sign at the guest parking. A signal or something to bring in clients!

Whatever this building is, it is almost as if it doesn't exist. It's just there. And no one seems to care.

And it vexes me every time I go shopping. What is going on in there? What is so secret? What is so important?

What do I need to do to get in those doors?

the best part about having a job is being able to go through doors other people aren’t allowed to use the worst part is everything else

As gen-AI becomes more normalized (Chappell Roan encouraging it, grifters on the rise, young artists using it), I wanna express how I will never turn to it because it fundamentally bores me to my core. There is no reason for me to want to use gen-AI because I will never want to give up my autonomy in creating art. I never want to become reliant on an inhuman object for expression, least of all if that object is created and controlled by tech companies. I draw not because I want a drawing but because I love the process of drawing. So even in a future where everyone’s accepted it, I’m never gonna sway on this.

Love it when Rolling Stone puts out an article about the 25 most influential internet creators and I've only heard of 7 of them
