I also recommend Ullr when you want to take that Mint Cinnamon out into the real world. You’ll schapp it right up!
Having one woman as a friend is still more than none.
Today I saw a sign that read “Harris, obviously”
First political sign I’ve seen
Honestly the story is way better than I would have thought. It’s crass but honestly not bad. Now how many brain worms does it take to get from Meemaw’s stance to the GOP’s? Like fuck he should have stuck with meemaw.
“JD, do you want to suck dicks?” [Meemaw] said, according to the book.
The young Vance, apparently “flabbergasted,” said: “Of course not!”
“Then you’re not gay. And even if you did want to suck dicks, that would be okay,” she replied. “God would still love you.”
In response to your second paragraph, someone posted above that it’s racism. The Teamsters, at least this… Uh governing body?.. Fired a number of people in leadership, 3/4 of them racial minorities. When they rehired for these newly opened positions only 1/4 of those hired were racial minorities.
Sick nasty
Thanks for your post, it’s well written.
Windows 10. I’ve since moved on to 11 but haven’t tried it since then.
I am also interested in the Lemmy opinion of windscribe. My wife really likes them but their app used to brick my computer requiring a hard reset so I don’t use them.
It seems as though you underestimate the appeal of billions of dollars. It’s not just the ability to never have to work again. Or power, prestige or any other nonsense. Or even just having tons of money. It’s not greed that makes it appealing.
It’s the security. The safety if knowing you’ll never have to worry about food or housing. That your parents and family will be well taken care of. Your children will be able to have it all, that you’ve set them up for success and they won’t have to struggle. It’s knowing that your best friend who was diagnosed with cancer will have the best care available, wherever that may be in the world, and won’t have to worry about food or housing or anything else while getting better.
You’re either too young to understand or are lacking in empathy.
I’m not saying being a billionaire isn’t inherently immoral. But the reason people take payouts like that are not solely down to greed.
I mean that’s cool but also not really a rebuttal to the user above. Now the person above is not correct. Kids absolutely know when they’re getting the short end of a deal or at least when it comes to stuff they care about. And Congress didn’t give a flying fuck about the good of the children or we’d have a food guarantee for all children and single prayer health care already.
Yeah, you’re right. I’m glad that they’re paid more and I’m glad tipping is still possible but it just seems super uncool to remove the prompt.
I had an argument with a coworker once about their second job. They said they blacklist people who don’t tip them for delivering pizza. I was surprised and asked them to explain and they said that most of their money came from tips. Without it they made state minimum wage and the job wasn’t worth it.
I said they should be paid better.
My coworker responded that they are paid better by people tipping and that’s why they blacklist people who don’t tip.
I followed it up by pushing the idea that the restaurant should be paying them more so that the job is worth it without tips. And well… The whole thing devolved for some reason and almost ended with me getting punched.
Either way I think you should be paid a living wage and have the ability to get tips for going above and beyond. Tipping shouldn’t be the norm/required but it should be available and it sounds like it is in this case just a bit more hidden.
Well that’s fucked up
Amazon is a company in the technology sector. They might be a retailer but they are also a part of big tech and the foundation of much of the Internet. A large portion of their workforce are tech workers.
Articles like this are not focused on warehouse employees, they have to go into the office to do their jobs at all. This article is talking about people who don’t have to go into work to perform their job… Like tech workers.
So like it or not, this is tech news.
Exactly. You should have said it so others don’t have to point it out.
I finally deleted Twitter from my phone a couple weeks ago.
I only used it for porn for the last 3 years and hadn’t been on in over a month but I saw an article on here and was curious. So I opened it up and looked to see how the porn situation was going. I was going to keep it around if I could find a bit of good porn. But I scrolled and scrolled down through my feed and I only had politics, bigots, ragebait, and hateporn. I hadn’t realized it had gotten so bad… I also have no idea where all my porn creators fled to.
Oh well, nothing of value was lost.
Hopefully this will include groceries. I hate when I go to buy something and it says $9.99 and I get up to the register and they hit me with this stupid, obnoxious hidden fee!
I only have a $10 bill, it says it costs less then $10. Why is it not false advertising to have it say $9.99 when it costs $12.37 at the register?
The whole thing is a scam.
At the end of the article it says he’s being held at a mental hospital until he is well enough to serve his sentence.
Fuuck.
I get it but this reads as:
Be mentally unwell Get seduced by chatbot to commit treason Get caught receive the help you need to be a stable human Spend 9 years in prison Get released as a mentally unwell individual
I have to admit, I’ve not seen the videos in question here but FriendlyJordies had been putting it videos talking about and exposing corruption in Australian and NSW governments. Even having his house fire bombed over exposing some of this corruption. I think I saw a video talking about this case from him and I have to admit I’ve never heard the term “wog” before and it doesn’t look or sound like much… But that’s part of the insidiousness of a slur. Jordies videos have targeted individual politician in the past and I believe this guy in particular because of their corrupt dealings and or ties to the mafia and or general anti-citizen/anti-poor policies.
From what I’ve seen of Jordies, I would assume he either believed that this politician way forfeited his right to feel bad about the names he’s called, kind of like Trump here in the States, or just didn’t understand how much emotional damage he was causing. I’m not saying this makes it right but there is likely more to the story than what has been brought up in the court case. I think Australia has some laws about speaking civilly about public figures and it looks like he ran afoul of those laws.
Which Aussie is this?
