I have never done a similar despicable thing once my shit landlord stopped performing maintenance on multiple building’s units and they started eating money. Never hurts to look up the manual.

Ohio, Maine, come get your senators. They’re drunk.

kmaismith ,

I didn’t realize this is how it worked, where can i pick up Mr. Vance? I have some choice words for him

Maggoty ,

Oh just ask the secret service. It’s like a daycare situation. They’re literally just waiting for a parent or guardian to show up.

vaultdweller013 ,

Im pretty sure Ohio is also drunk, and Maine is too busy dealing with eldritch entities and whatever is pushed out of the Maritime into the US.

Maggoty ,

Maybe they should just elect one of those next time?

vaultdweller013 ,

Yeah but elect Ygndolsofuk doesnt quite roll of the tongue, and im pretty sure the abominations from the Maritime cant talk after being curbstomped so as to stop them from whispering in folks brains.

shikitohno ,

Maine is also plenty drunk, somebody needs to cut off the Allen’s coffee brandy supply and let them sober up.

vaultdweller013 ,

Im pretty sure thats to not have their minds melted by eldritch abominations. It worked for Henderson.

mightyfoolish ,

Ohio senators are probably high, it’s legal.

derf82 ,

Senator Brown is a great senator and literally the only statewide Democrat we have other than a few state Supreme Court justices (who will be out soon now that Republicans added party affiliation to the court ballot). He will be far better for America than Bernie Moreno.

Maggoty ,

I know nothing about Senator Brown other than this bill. At any rate it passed so they’re certainly not alone.

Considering that it is political weather or not you have the right to decide what happens to/in your own body, and just how venomous some people get when they express just how much they think you do not have the rights to your own body, yeah, divorce over political differences makes sense.

Good for the Democrats.

TheAlbatross , in Starbucks is reeling as customers go elsewhere, sales decline

They should try making good coffee

mp3 , (edited )
@mp3@lemmy.ca avatar

The coffee is okay, but no where close to the price they’re asking for.

TheAlbatross ,

The pricing is also egregious considering I can make a far better cup at home for less.

mp3 ,
@mp3@lemmy.ca avatar

You’ll always make a better cup of coffee at home for less.

But people pay a little extra for the convenience of not doing it. Starbucks however is banking on their reputation to overcharge, which seems to be finally backfiring.

xmunk ,

I will never understand people who get drip coffee at Starbucks… back when I got things from there it would just be the occasional over the top milk shake. Starbucks legitimately has the tools to produce ridiculous drinks with far less hassle then it’d take at home.

solrize ,

It’s like drinking Bud Light at a bar. The beer isn’t the product, the venue is.

ArmoredThirteen , (edited )

Yeah the only Starbucks in my area I’ll go into is the reserve but that’s because it’s just really cool in there. If I want a busy environment that feels like a steampunk world then it’s the place to be. Coffee there still sucks tho and even with the cool location I’m still only in there maybe a couple times a year

solrize ,

I avoid Starbucks for all kinds of reasons but can’t say it’s 100% abstention. Sometimes it’s just a little too convenient for that overpriced slop. Sometimes called Charbucks because of how the coffee is always burnt.

TowardsTheFuture ,

Is their coffee much more than $2? Last I remember, it wasn’t THAT expensive considering it isn’t shit coffee like a Burger King/McDonalds or etc.

Or by drip do you mean their like clover machine fancy coffees? I never bothered with those so idk how much that was.

astanix ,

2.95 for a default size black coffee at the one closest to me right now

littletoolshed ,

Ok but what is the default size? And where-ish are you? In the Starbucks app, it defaults to Grande for me and that is $3.45.

A Tall is $3.25.

A Short is $3.15.

This is in Northern California.

Feelfold ,

I don’t like candy bars or milkshakes. If I’m going to a Starbucks its at 3am in an airport, it’s the ONLY option, thus I’m willing to tolerate burnt to fuck drip coffee.

catloaf ,

The coffee is better at home, sure. But I can’t make what is essentially a specialty milkshake at home without going out and getting the tools and ingredients.

Sometimes I can have little a of Starbucks, as a treat.

navi ,
@navi@lemmy.tespia.org avatar

I just found a local place that makes a bomb chocolate coffee shake (I mean uhh. A blended mocha) and support them.

The worst part is that I can get Starbucks anywhere but only get my local stuff near home.

variants ,

In my town one of the two coffee shops closed down but they opened like 4 more Starbucks, we have 4 within a quarter mile on the same street it’s wild

hddsx ,

That’s… not true. I have zero coffee making skills and tools.

Aussiemandeus ,
@Aussiemandeus@lemmy.world avatar

A kettle and some instant coffee, better then any coffee I’ve ever had from a shop

njm1314 ,

No not always. I knew this Turkish immigrant who had his own little coffee shop you could not make close to the stuff he made let me tell you. God I miss him.

Today ,

And not supporting the RNC.

Ghostalmedia ,
@Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world avatar

How do they support the RNC?

…cert.starbucks.com/…/137-78795.pdf

DrWeevilJammer , (edited )
@DrWeevilJammer@lemmy.ml avatar

Starbucks does not directly support the RNC. But that doesn’t mean that Starbucks’ lobbying money doesn’t primarily support Republicans. Per the PDF you linked, the majority of Starbucks’ contributions to lobbying organizations went to those that donate at least 75% of their lobbying to Republicans.

From your link: National Restaurant Association: 75% of all donations to Republicans; 50% of Starbucks’ donations to this organization went to lobbyingBusiness Roundtable: “75 percent of donations from the median chief executive were directed to Republicans”; 40% of Starbucks’ donations to this organization went to lobbying

Edit: Added the word “lobbying” before “money” in the first paragraph. Should have been in the original.

Today ,

There was an article during the convention that listed supporters. I’ll look for it.

ETA- my mistake. It was a fake that was shared on Facebook and Twitter. It must have been here too because i don’t have Twitter and my Facebook is only cats and relatives.

Nougat ,

They make desserts using coffee as an ingredient. That's why their coffee is shit at being coffee.

Vanilla makes a pancake delicious, but you wouldn't drink it.

noxy ,
@noxy@yiffit.net avatar

but you wouldn’t drink it.

Hey I had to try it at least once!

(Also: at most once)

Iheartcheese ,
@Iheartcheese@lemmy.world avatar

You should try again

noxy ,
@noxy@yiffit.net avatar

I resent you for the bad taste now in my mouth, but I thank you for giving me an excuse to break from doomscrolling :P

Iheartcheese ,
@Iheartcheese@lemmy.world avatar

You just didn’t drink enough

Ghostalmedia ,
@Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world avatar

Also, good pastries again.

The good cafes next to me all have fresh baked pastries from a local bakery. Not Starbucks. 7-11 has better food than Starbucks.

stoly ,

My sister used to manage a coffee shop and says they would never hire former Starbucks employees because they are trained to make it very poorly.
