Mostly another nonsense “no wage, only spend” article

But, it is good to have mindful consumer habits. One tip I try to follow when I want to make a superfluous big purchase is, once I decide I want something, I wait 1 day for every $100 it costs. If I still want the item after X days, I might buy it, but often, the novelty is worn off, and I don’t want it anymore. Or, it’s something egregiously expensive and it’ll take 30+ days of thinking about it, and that’s just too much money for a toy

Banana discourse

I just learned it from you

When I worked closing shifts at Starbucks, the dickhead managers wouldn’t let us take home “expired” foods from the fridge (sandwich trays etc). Thought it was bullshit then, sounds like bullshit now

For those who didn’t click but maybe saw the video, these union reps were caught on camera hitting Dr Ahmad in the head with “we love Joe” signs at the convention

Sounds like a larvae

Focus on “most blowouts” over “roughest”

Thinking about the rageposters in the school shooter threads - what do we actually think could be done to prevent these?

Gun control is a dead end in this country (ask :beto:) and unless you went for complete banning of all guns (which should be “frustrated, by force if necessary” ), there’s really no way to stop some unhinged kid from grabbing Dad’s gun and going wild. I guess significant punishments for unsecured guns would be a deterrent for parents, but a determined person can defeat a cable lock in a few minutes.

I guess proper mental health services and modeling of how to seek out help before they act on it.

I agree SOMETHING needs to be done, but the lack of solutions being proposed is frustrating. There’s no getting the 300 million guns in America"back in the tube of toothpaste"

Who needs articles when you have the 2004 blockbuster film The Day After Tomorrow with Jake Gyllenhaal

I also relocated to Seattle’s rival city just so I can continue to trash it

Modern western communists being diverse and pro-lgbtq is too good for optics, so an intolerant communist boogeyman needs to be invented

I don’t follow current baseball, but as an Angels fan circa 2001-2006, I love to hear bad things about the Mariners

Hey I remember that one

Just bought a new-to-me used car off Craigslist and am stoked. I nabbed this one cuz I check Craigslist for a rotation of car deals daily, our main car’s transmission just started failing, I had cash, and caught the post in the first few hours. Seller was the rarest of rare: upfront, honest, arrived on time, and had done perfect maintenance (with documentation) with tons of worthwhile quality-of-life upgrades (upgraded speakers, extra set of snow tires, tinted windows, roof rack, was top-of-the-line model). Like, I got a total gem and I’m so excited (mark my words) to have a working car. Seller even texted me after “thank you for keeping Craigslist a good place”

I haven’t seen it since a “cultural literacy” lesson in APUSH circa 2004. Should probably rewatch, thanks for the reminder
