i don’t know how to explain to you people that no matter what a country’s government is like i do not and will not support the US indiscriminately bombing that country’s civilians and i don’t know why that’s a controversial take tbh

I don't wanna hear one more bitch saying that contacting your senators&reps doesn't work

Btw, this is FAR from getting rid of the land selloff from the BBB. Keep at it. Mike Lee specifically is notable because he's from Utah, the state that's pushed for that sell off very heavily for mining income.

Just saw a post asking how tall people are and now I want to make it a poll. Apologies to people in the fringe height categories, you do not get specifics.

I had to consult a chart for this

I have had a full on anxiety attack while in 5 lanes of bumper to bumper traffic. Bc I hate driving and also happened to have had a coffee that day.

It was so bad that I had to be sent home...which meant more driving. And I had to take an anxiety meds nap, after.

You do not want me behind a wheel, not even in an emergency... especially not in an emergency.

Why isn't "too scary" a good enough reason to never drive a car

Thinking about when I worked at a shitty restaurant + one night it was just me + 3 other women on closing shift, so some guy came in the back and waved a knife around, presumably for money but I’m not actually certain, bc he was met with the bartender holding a much bigger knife, a tiny teenager wielding a cast iron pan, an elderly woman holding up a crockpot of clearly boiling water, and me, turning on the meat slicer with eye contact for maximum effect. He left, but the moral of the story is not girl power or whatever, it’s just. Why the fuck would you threaten a room full of underpaid and sleep-deprived blue-collar workers surrounded by lethal weapons.

Listening to Hotel California on the store radio and they muted the word "kill" when he says "but they just can't kill the beast" like what are we doing here has humanity not suffered enough

It is not enough that you be attentive and do your job, you must also pay obeisance to me as a customer! If you fail to do this, you are actively victimizing me. BE PERFORMATIVE HAPPY FOR ME OR ELSE!

I'm very firmly a millennial and have been through really extensive customer service training. I DO automatically greet people with 'come on in' or 'I'll be with you in just a minute, please have a seat'

But I honestly completely understand and accept the GenZ stance of 'I presume my mic is muted until you address me' and 'I do not want to bother you; I am here waiting for you to interact with me'

Add another one to the list of hilarious examples of why generative AI doesn't produce correct answers, just statistically likely ones.

(Customers asked for how-to videos, which the company doesn't have. The AI chatbot decided that a million internet users linking to this video after similar requests couldn't be wrong.)

years after the inconclusive FDA outbreak investigation #1064 ("dry cereal") from 2022, with over 550 fucking adverse effects reported (WHICH IS A LOT!), and the LARGEST influx of reports iwaspoisoned had ever seen, people are still reporting mystery gut issues, sometimes excruciatingly painful, after eating lucky charms and cheerios. this is not limited to one or a few flavors, I have seen this across a bunch of different flavors and varieties of both.

there has never been a recall about this. there has never been a cause found. the investigation was closed without figuring out what the fuck is making people sick. lucky charms is blatantly aimed at kids, and cheerios spent decades making a name for itself as 'healthy' and 'safe' for people with major medical issues.

anecdotally since 2022 I have spoken to a lot of people who either had their kid's mystery gut issues clear up after their kids stopped eating those cereals, or had their own mystery gut issues clear up after they stopped eating the cereals themselves. and yes, this includes people without a gluten sensitivity.

if you eat any flavors of lucky charms or cheerios, and you have any kind of mystery gut issues going on, please try avoiding the cereals for a week or few and see if anything improves or clears up.

and yeah, I am never eating ANY lucky charms or cheerios again. they KNOW their cereals are making people sick. they just hope everyone forgot.

Detect evil but it becomes increasingly clear that whoever calibrated it had some really weird moral stances.

Sputnik 2, launched on November 3, 1957, carried the dog Laika, the first living creature to be shot into space and orbit Earth. Laika was a stray dog found on the streets of Moscow. There were no plans to return her to Earth, and she lived only a few hours in orbit. …
