My ex worked at a local screen printing shop, and I hung out there a lot and made some cash during big orders. I went to the owner with a simple “punch more nazis” design I made stoned, half jokingly asked him to burn the design so my ex could print it for me.
It was the business version of that genie “thats dope you still have 3 wishes” meme - “yea I’ll burn it in the morning you know where the extras (leftover unused shirts) are 🤷♂️”
We never got along super well but we knew where we agreed lmao
only if harris somehow sneaks a bullhorn/megaphone onto the stage so she can still make sure those fuckers hear her when her mic “malfunctions”.
fox deserves no respect.
You know how fascists are always projecting; the way he treats normal news agencies tells us all we need to know - it’s exactly how we SHOULD be treating his pet agencies.
They also restore run down areas of the city, start small businesses that hire local, support their community and help future immigrants, bring culture and part of what makes America great.
Bastian said the figure includes not just lost revenue but “the tens of millions of dollars per day in compensation and hotels” over a period of five days. The amount is roughly in line with analysts’ estimates. Delta didn’t disclose how many customers were affected or how many canceled their flights.
It’s important to note that the DOT recently clarified a rule that reinforced that if an airline cancels a flight, they have to compensate the customer. So that’s the real reason why Delta had to spend so much, they couldn’t ignore their customers and had to pay out for their inconvenience.
So think about how much worse it might have been for fliers if a more industry-friendly Transportation Secretary were in charge. The airlines might not have had to pay out nearly as much to stranded customers, and we’d be hearing about how stranded fliers got nothing at all.
Our best airline just got bought by pretty much a broadcom, mechs are striking because, well, Canada isn’t an at-will state near Jersey, everyone’s looking to bail because now they have to be the dicks to customers they didn’t like being at the other (national) airline. The whole enshittification enchilada.
Late flights? Check. Missed connections? Check. Luggage? Laughable. And extra. Compensation? “No hablo canadiensis”.
We need that hard rule where they fuck up and they gotta make it rain too.
Like, is it so hard to keep a working but dark airplane in a parking spot for when that flight’s delayed because the lav check valve is jammed? This seems to be basic capacity planning and business continuity. They need to get a clue under their skin or else they get the hose again.
[…] it was about a 15-year-old girl who was missing for an entire year, and she was finally found after a Pornhub user had tipped off her mother that she was on the site, and her mom found her in 58 videos being raped for profit on Pornhub
It’s kind of insane how this can just fly under the radar. I don’t think I’ve ever seen any sus stuff on big tube sites. Was this before amateur purge?
The new guidelines require educators to incorporate the Bible by looking at “only its historical, literary and secular benefits” by noting the Bible’s influence on Western civilization, American history, literature, art and music.
So, that means you can teach about:
• Thomas Jefferson putting together his own version of the New Testament that omits all of the supernatural parts.
• The “slave Bibles” that omitted any verses about freedom from bondage so slaves wouldn’t yearn for it but still be Christians.
• Bible verses that the slavers used to justify slavery.
• Forcibly converting indigenous Americans to Christianity by putting their children in special religious boarding schools.
• The complete failure of the religious-motivated alcohol prohibition movement.
• Catholic priest Father Coughlin going on the radio every week and talking about how Hitler was ordained by God.
Well, ya know what? Hope that 10% savings really helped you. Because between diminishing portions, diminishing quality, raised prices, and health issues from contaminated food over the years, I’ve stopped going. Like, completely. Used to get it once a week or so. Now I haven’t had it since before the pandemic.
And I’m not the only one. My local chipotle in 2005 would have a line wrapped out the door, and down the plaza to 2 shops down. Just a continuous line, at all times, and you KNEW it’d be 45 minutes before you get your food.
Now most of the time when I walk by, I’ll glance inside and see no line at all. I could walk right in, and order. No waiting. I COULD do that…but still no.
There are three restaurants I distinctly remember long-term as health risks: Chipotle, Chi-Chis (decades ago), and Jimmy Johns.
The first, I still consider a risk. The second is long gone, and exists only as branding for salsa and the like. The latter, made a concerted effort to get rid of the one risky part of their product which couldn’t be cooked or otherwise sterilized (sprouts, by definition) and to my knowledge hasn’t had a large-scale problem since.
JJs is the only one that handled it even remotely correctly, after either the first or second outbreak, by straight removing the risk. They’re also the only one of the two remaining above that I’ll patronize. I’ve never eaten Chipotle, and it strikes me as highly unlikely that I ever will.
I tried going to Jimmy Johns a few months ago. Now granted, I know each location is franchised, and your millage may vary, blah blah blah…
That out of the way, I walked in, looked at the prices, and walked back out. They wanted $26 for a sub. More if you add chips and a drink. I looked over at the guy eating his sub at a table, and it looked THIN.
I just said "fuck that. I’m not paying $26 for something half as big as what subway charged $5 for about 10 years ago. And when you consider it’s half the size, it would be more like $2.50 10 years ago.
Now this sub place wants $26. For a god damned fast food sandwich.
So I walked into subway, and for a similiar sandwich (unsure if their portions are reduced) they wanted $16 for a sandwich.
These fast food places realize that their entire business model relied on speed, and CHEAP, right??? Half the time I feel like I could have went to a sit down place like red robin for similar prices. Maybe not a fancy sit down resteraunt, but one of those chains, like red robin, bw3, applebees, ect.
OH! And thats the other thing. These fast food places now on their screen ask for a tip. FUCK THAT. Thats not a place tipping is acceptable. I’m not sitting down. You’re not my waitress. You’re handing me food in a bag over a counter.
Or the one that REALLY pissed me off. Asking to tip at the self checkout at ALDIs. WHO THE HELL AM I TIPPING???
Woah, that’s absolutely insane. Subway has always struck me as a little pricey for what they offer, but they’re also dead consistent which counts for something.
JJs, no way I’d spent $26 for a sandwich of any size.
At those prices (or McDonald’s prices these days, TBH), I’d just as soon sit down and also tip for basically the same amount of money with better quality food.
Self-checkout tipping has never made sense to me. I haven’t done the deep dive research, but I suspect that since the tips are not directed at an employee, it’s an easy way for the business itself to get tips w/o being in violation of tip theft laws. No intended employee recipient == free-for-all and business can grab the cash.
More that they’ve had a number of food safety issues over the years, and seem not to have taken any definitive steps to resolve that - as opposed to e.g., JJ’s who got rid of the sprouts, since they were entirely unable to be cooked/sanitized/etc.
I said this in another thread but Everytime I’ve gone to as chipotle to fix something as part of my job, the kitchen area has always been disgusting. Like brown water on the floor disgusting.
lol, it’s usually just rotted food, pressed into surfaces and not properly cleaned, uncleaned drains so your not able to properly rinse the floors and whatnot, gross but not quite that gross
Like the other person said, it’s dirt, rotten food, unkept drains. It’s not poo or anything that disgusting but still way beyond what I consider acceptable quality.
People who are on the spectrum get comfortable with certain meals and consider it safe. Like, it’s consistent. New foods and flavors really mess with them.
When he brought up the issue with his grandmother — known to Vance as “Mamaw” — she replied bluntly: “Don’t be a fucking idiot, how would you know that you’re gay?”
When Vance explained his reasoning, she laughed.
“JD, do you want to suck dicks?” she said, according to the book.
So… 8 year old JD Vance instead wanted to eat pussy?
Also, if eight year old Vance brought this up with his public school teacher and they gave him the same kind of response (minus the “suck dicks” and “fucking idiot” parts), conservatives would absolutely lose their shit over “grooming”
Considering not all straight women want to suck dicks, I don’t think the desire to suck dick is a good determinant of whether you’re gay or not anyway.
Shit, I’m bi, and I don’t really like the idea of giving oral to any gender. The thought of body fluids in my mouth kinda grosses me out, unfortunately. Makes me happy that people love it, though. The world would be a better place if everyone got to experience their ass getting eaten voraciously. It really is an amazing experience.
Sure, I guess I was thinking “quite comfortable and sustainable.” Let’s say a million dollars at a 4% fixed interest rate, allowing $40k per year to live off of. That’s quite reasonable in some areas of the country.
Wouldn’t be the first time. Conservatives are conservative up until the moment someone uses freedom from government oversight in a way that hurts or inconveniences them. Then they’re all, “There oughta be a law against blah blah blah” without an iota of self-awareness.
I like it when they say it’s not about guns, it’s about mental health and then you say okay, let’s have universal healthcare and they say, “no, not like that!”
Heads up, it’s due process because it’s the process you’re due (the process you’re entitled to or that’s proper, expected, etc), not the process you’re doing.
I know, however I looked it up to see the context and it sounds like it was part of a spoken conversation, not written text. As such, the [sic] doesn’t make sense.
He’s pro-Trump. He’ll say anything if he thinks he’ll get more money (and now, enough votes to escape his crimes). You won’t find a single issue he hasn’t flip-flopped on except “How can this make Trump richer?”
“It takes so long to go to court to get the due process procedures I like taking the guns early like in this crazy man’s case that just took place in Florida he had a lot of firearms and they saw everything to go to court would have taken a long, long time so you could exactly what you’re saying but take the guns first, go through due process second.” - Trump www.youtube.com/watch?v=du4xz6Lndxk&t=43s
Man, I would love to watch his supporters work through the dissonance on that one. On one hand, they already chose Trump over their god… On the other hand, “come and take it” culture is right up there with evangelicalism as far as being really ingrained.
