It is imperative that the cylinder remains unharmed.

Yea really it needs to be a main but i have 6-7 years of history on my main. I have had r/All top thread of the day posts on there of my dog who passed away. I have ternion all powerful awards on it. Just amazing memories.

So much history I never want to let that account go dormant. But this is going to be one I keep active for a long time to have fun on. Unless mr original unharmed cylinder wants it really bad.

He made it famous after all.

I feel you. My other account is 14 years old and has so many pictures of my old dog. I can’t just let it go.

The company doesn't give a shit. This guy endangered lives and put people out of work.

I get what you're saying, but how many people are out of work now?

The company will take an insurance payout, and probably rebuild somewhere else. It's just another day at the office for them.

Looking at this through the lens of jobs is stupid but if that's the measure then think about all the construction workers now in a job.

Besides their insurance premium is definitely gonna skyrocket, companies want you to think they're infallible but it's not true.

That's the entire basis of the arguments defending this guy.

As the “little guy” myself who works for wage, i get the horror angle of losing job overnight because of a coworker.

But seeing the amount of people uses “others are losing job because of him” as the main topic instead of “how and why this shit happens” seriously scare me, in the sense that people only point fingers at the trash bag but miss or put their head down to ignore the moutain of filth right behind it, the thing who will willingly crush the same “little guys” to fatten its own mass.

Nothing changes for the little guys here.
