Stores are now getting rid of self checkout lanes . . . and I bet most will understaff the registers, causing people to wait a long time. Yep, enshittification of every single aspect of life. Might as well go back to the very very old days where you just place an order and pick it up. Modern shopping is based a lot on impulse purchasing. Perhaps that will now change if people can't browse stores anymore.

Strangely enough, this discussion over terminology is still relevant to Poor Things.

Some very mediocre Pad Thai.

Elephant in the room. I wanted to say it long ago. I think if a few certain posters were still active, something would have been said already.

I hear all these stories of men being motivated to make their fathers proud and I realized something . . . I never once gave a shit to make my father proud. 🙃

I think this thread proves the disconnect between Wall Street and the average American. Nobody but the one percent is marveling at "wow, our shit is actually managing to stick to the wall." The rest of us feel dread. I'd also like to add that even though workers in Europe are better compensated than Americans, they aren't all paid a living wage and are also suffering from the effects of massive inflation. It's a global issue, and fortunately this is an argument that can be used against people blaming "Bidenomics."

I was gonna say something, but I'll use this opportunity to post this.

The corned beef I had yesterday wasn't as good as I rhought it would be . . . but the Indian curry I just had was fire. Seriously, my mouth feels like it's on fire. 😫

I'm not watching that, but I'll just assume it's because the Middle Earth lacks kawaii schoolgirls going on big adventures.

Happy birthday

I swear, boomers make competitions out of the dumbest shit. Always fun to knock them off their precarious pedestals though.

🙄 I encourage women to be whores if they have it within them.

Doesn't bitch and cunt better serve those purposes? When one says whore, I imagine most people think of promiscuity.

This thread makes me feel sad. I don't feel like talking about my experiences now. But in general, yes, I can tell when someone is into me.

It means what it literally means. I didn't mean they were my friends "with benefits." They were just whores I befriended.

So what, is it basically bitter dark hot chocolate? No thanks. Coffee has no bad side effects to me anyway due to my high caffeine tolerance.

I realized I made quite a few female friends in my life who were complete whores, like fuggs. Maybe this is why I like this film so much. 😑

I can't wait until Sunday. I bought corned beef to roast in the crockpot with a bunch of vegetables. It's gonna taste so good.

chicken biryani from my Pakistani friend. She broke her fast before sunset. Uh oh.

I had one today too, the mystery tuna salad. It was ok.

Get a credit card if you can. The banks take action much more quickly with scams because you're using their money to purchase things instead.

Happy birthday! I know this is your favorite band.

Howl's Moving Castle is one of the worst Studio Ghibli films. Still eye candy for rhe animation, of course.

I'm indifferent to cats. I like dogs.
