We will be using Amazon dollars by then. Prices never go up… in Amazon dollars!

banned me from the store “for life”

Awesome! I hope you refused to honor it unless he put a poster on the front door with a picture of you and a ghostbusters-style “no” sign around it.

I mean this respectfully. The character Everett True is known as someone who tells the truth even when it’s not popular.

All cognition has an emotional component, so you have to be more specific. Once you get more specific, then you’ll see that music and art communities are different.

Words to live by! /sincere

OK, fair enough.

Hi, not comment-op, but… Here’s one of the first set of exit polls to look over: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-elections/exit-polls

Though it’s a little too early for real analysis, since ballots are still being counted. Really the most interesting questions are things like: in tipping-point states (like PA, MI, WI, maybe GA or NC) how did the vote/turnout shift? That sort of analysis takes a bit longer, though, so we’re stuck with clickbait articles like the one posted above.

a hard communication problem

I think it’s a lot like tech support. End users don’t care about the details. They just want to hear: I see your problem, and here’s how quickly I’m going to fix it.

Most Latinos do not work in the fields. Many of us have been here for several generations. There are many types of Latinos. (Disclaimer: I voted, phonebanked, and canvassed for Kamala.)

I was just extending the bait, didn’t realize people would take it seriously. I’ve added an “/s”.

In reality, the Amazon driver’s pay has been cut, so they ask for a tip. You don’t tip enough so they beat you up. If you could afford to order from Amazon, why didn’t you tip enough? Obviously you’re not supporting essential workers in these trying times. They’re just working hard, feeding you, keeping you clothed, protecting you. But they have families of their own to take care of too. You’re not even ordering enough so they can afford to take a bathroom break.

Note: this was meant to be: /s

Partying EVERY day gets kind of boring… You appreciate it more if you spend time just hanging out, like the guy in the meme.

republicans have nobody to blame

They will always find someone to blame.

“Why tip someone for a job I’m capable of doing myself? I can deliver food, I can drive a taxi, I can and do cut my own hair. I did, however, tip my urologist. Because I am unable to pulverize my own kidney stones.” -Dwight Schrute, “The Office”
