Treczoks , in McDonald's sales are slumping because people can't afford fast-food

Lets put it this way: they could not afford it health-wise all the time, but suddenly, they cannot afford it financially, too!

metaStatic , in Cisgender students allowed to sue Virginia schools to avoid sharing restrooms with trans classmates

Who you share the restroom with is less of a problem than the fact you have to share in the first place

Is sharing it a problem? I didn’t realize there was any sort of issue with the existence of public restrooms.

242 , in An inmate’s body temp was 107.5 when he died. The state of Texas says heat did not kill him.

Well of course they aren’t going to admit that rising temperatures can kill people. That would require them to look for a solution to the problem. These boomers are going to hide their heads in the sand until it’s too late to do anything because their donors are making big money off destroying the planet.

the Chernobyl sarcophagus,

For president!

That one is actually pretty awesome and useful!

Looks spiffy too!

xmunk , in Idaho sued for a law that pushed libraries to go "adults only"

Excuse me good sir, can you direct me to the red curtain in your fine establishment? I want some of that restricted literature… I was thinking Grapes of Wrath but maybe I’m more in the mood for Chaucer… or a little Lady Chatterly?

No? Well fuck, I guess I’ll have to see if there’s anything online then - I’m pretty sure everything online is SFW otherwise they wouldn’t allow it to be posted.

Are you sure you’re not just 2 kids in a trench coat?

Binette , in Cisgender students allowed to sue Virginia schools to avoid sharing restrooms with trans classmates

Who goes in the toilet, realizes their trans classmate is in there, and think: “Hmmm. I think I should sue them” other than a bully lol.

BigTrout75 , in McDonald's sales are slumping because people can't afford fast-food

I usually just get a coffee

arefx , (edited )

Man just go to a local coffee roaster and get the good shit, just get a drip pot and set it up when you make dinner the night before to brew before you wake up, aint worth going thru the drive thru for that mccafe

uranibaba , in Donald Trump Photo Without Ear Bandage Raises Eyebrows

Pete Souze disabled his account because of comments by the MAGA crowd.

petapixel.com/…/photographer-pete-souza-deletes-x…

“I re-posted a screenshot of New York Times photographer Doug Mills’ Twitter post of the same situation of Trump boarding his plane, which included the date and time of his photo. Doug is one of Trump’s favorite photographers and Trump has publicly called him ‘my genius photographer.’ So I thought the maga world would at least believe Doug Mills.”

“They didn’t. The comments turned ugly. Mostly about me, but also some that disparaged Doug Mills,” Souza continues.

“So I de-activated my Twitter account. It was a gut decision, made only by me. I am still not sure if this is a temporary or a permanent action,” Souza continues.

sweaterpuppys , in Trump proposed bombing Mexico and it somehow wasn’t a big story

Anyone got a link to video or audio of this?

shplane ,

Here’s the best I could find- Trump’s former Defense Secretary Mark Esper claimed in his book “A Sacred Oath” that Trump raised the idea of launching missiles into Mexico to combat drug cartels and proposed doing it covertly to avoid blame. Trump, when asked about this, did not deny the claim but instead chose to say "No comment"​ - independent.co.uk/…/trump-esper-bomb-mexico-drug-…

Crowfiend , in McDonald's to 'rethink' prices after first sales fall since 2020

Imagine ‘McDonald’s’ being your baseline fur ‘decent fast food’

moitoi ,
@moitoi@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

It’s descent in some European countries.

Crowfiend , (edited )

That’s what I’m saying though, (as an American) if your baseline grocery budget is greater than the McD ‘value meal’, then you’re likely just allotting your funds poorly.

The avg “$1 menu” item can be bought from your local grocer/butcher for as much as 1/4 price before seasoning. If you’re “going to McD for savings” then you’re the exact reason the world has the problems that it has.

Edit: “is decent” lmao have you ever had more than breadcrumbs? Imagine growing up in ‘potato russia’ and thinking your food has flavor.

Try tomatoes, try watermelon, try something and get out of your brainwashed ignorocracy.

Emmie , in McDonald's to 'rethink' prices after first sales fall since 2020

I stopped understanding McDonald’s when there’s hundreds of homemade-like small burger places everywhere. They are so frikin tasty and cost the same

I still remember eating an especially tasty one and playing Disco Elysium then dying from heart attack in the game. Somehow it has become a permanent memory

Rubanski ,

Exactly, McDonald’s niche was a very cheap and quick burger. Why pay $12 for a shitty McD when I can have a $10 burger at the Apple Pan

TheFunkyMonk , in Judge temporarily bans Wayne LaPierre from returning to lead the National Rifle Association but does not appoint a monitor

What kind of name for a gun nut is Wayne LaPierre?

c4lm , in McDonald's to 'rethink' prices after first sales fall since 2020

I feel like lately fast food has lost its appeal.

It isn’t that fast any more, the service has gone done hill (habbitually checking orders now, because they’re often wrong) and the prices are a joke.

@rozodru@lemmy.ca avatar

it “depends” but the exception to what you stated has become extremely rare.

Theres ONE burger king near me that for whatever reason lives in some kind of temporal loop thats prices are a few years behind everyone else. I can go there and get two breakfast sandwiches, an order of hashbrowns, and a large coffee for $11. and it’s fast. For dinner if I wanted I can get a large combo meal for $13.

Compare that to the mcdonalds near me. say I wanted two breakfast sandwiches, two hashbrowns (the equivalant or slightly less than the BK large hashbrowns) and a large coffee i’m going to be spending $20+

But other than this one magical BK every where else is the same. Fast Food is neither fast nor cheap anymore. what’s the point?

BigBrainBrett2517 ,

The One True BK. Nice.

Blackmist ,

Having to stand there waiting ages while a bunch of delivery guys turn up and grab orders off the counter is a piss-take.

What happened to “grab it off the rack behind them”?
