The worst major fast food chain by a mile, and they're pulling stupid shit like this.
Whatever your reasons are for paying ridiculous prices to eat crap at a place like this, they're not good reasons. You can do better, you're worth more. Stop abusing yourself.
They keep telling us how cool and fun it is. Why won't we believe them? They know what's best for us, and they're going to make us take it whether we want it or not.
If you've ever thought that a good night's sleep is better than sex, you're right. Also, remember that the next time you need to choose between sex and sleep.
You can stop buying from Amazon whenever you choose to. There are online alternatives to every product they sell. You don't need to be part of it. Whatever excuse you give is wrong.
Before my kid started kindergarten, I "never got sick". Then it was one damn thing after another for the next three years. I wonder whether people who never have kids and never experience that are somehow worse off in old age because of it. Or, maybe better off?
The last time I was sick was Covid, and yes, my by-then adult son gave it to me, because of course he did.
I wondered about "California’s UPS with apartments above it", so I searched. And, I found that Costco is building apartments above one of their stores.
Capitalism getting back to roots with indentured servitude just around the corner.
Federal minimum wage should be $30 per hour, with yearly raises to account for inflation.
But, the filthy rich know that money is power, and they want us to be powerless.
Many, many years ago, when Bill Gates first became filthy rich he said in an article, I'm paraphrasing, "Things only get so good, once you can afford to have the best of everything, the rest of the money is just for keeping score." And, the game they're tracking is who is most powerful.
Trump bankrupted two casinos, and is a notoriously bad businessman, which is why he jumped at the chance to run for President. Because, the President of the U.S. is "the most powerful man in the world", at least on paper. It's also why he's wielding that power so ruthlessly--it's his bruised ego. He couldn't hack it in the private sector, he never got anywhere near the top and the top kept rising, getting further out of reach. Why don't more billionaires run for office? Easy, they don't want the responsibility. They want power without consequences.
"Everything is about sex, except sex. Sex is about power." But, really everything is about power, including sex, and money.
The disparity in power is what gets them off. That explains why they flocked to Epstein. There's no greater disparity in power for humans than between a billionaire and a young girl.
While I'm not surprised, it's important that empirical research be done and published. It's needed to bolster calls for regulation. Not that I, for one second, think we'll get any meaningful regulation out of this in most countries.
Our best bet, as always, is to limit our technologies' access to the internet as much as we can tolerate. Cars, doorbells, and refrigerators have no business connecting to the internet at all.
Should'a been "Wood Knot", or even "Wood Naut".
