Look at that, Digg-ing up the corpse of a horse just to beat it more.

This is essentially market manipulation via speculation. The artificially create scarcity to drive up demand and price. They do it with food, they do it with housing, and they do it with healthcare. The basic things we need to survive are being held by fewer and fewer owners; then held hostage by those owners via monopolization; just to squeeze more from us. The earth is a fucking resort for the 3000 billionaires in this world, and the rest of us are allowed to work here at the pleasure of our overlords.

What about Mars? I mean, Elon has rockets. After we nationalize his companies, we can just strap him in and let him enjoy the ride.

Damn. I’m sorry.

I’ve never used it, so I have no thoughts.

Unspeakable things?

NYC native here. I grew up in Spanish Harlem. Parking in the city is still garbage, as is driving in the city. When I visit family down there, I drive to Poughkeepsie and take the Metro North into Manhattan. Was double parking to unload equipment, and then driving away to find a spot not an option?

I came here expecting to find this in the comments. Lemmy does not disappoint. You are also 100% correct.

This sparks joy. Sometimes the only way to get a raise is to jump ship. It makes me happy that you know your worth, and you fight for it!

If this had happened a year earlier, before we were sold to a conglomerate, I probably would have just helped this guy with his external state appeal on company time, to be petty about being forced to work the phones at all, and kept working the job. I’ve helped plenty of others do external appeals when I knew the review team was dead wrong.

Helping that last guy after I quit wasn’t about me being nice, or caring about my community. It was about lashing out at a company that treated me as subhuman, and forcing them to follow the fucking law, which cost them money. The fact that someone benefited from my rage after quitting was just the cherry on top.

Now I do benefits for about 1800 state employees, and it warms my heart when I can help one of our employees get shit paid for after it’s been denied. Health insurance companies are the devil incarnate, and I’ve made it my personal mission to make sure they all follow the letter of the law and our written contracts when it comes to the employees in my agency.

Mother: Can prove that they are in recovery from drugs, apologize for selling/trafficking me for drugs, and almost murdering me.

Father: Apologize for abandoning me, and take an active interest in my life.

Channa Masala, spiced lentils, felafel, pork belly ramen, chicken yakisoba, pork dumplings, sirloin tip fajitas, Dahl, butternut squash bisque, chicken soup, meatloaf.

Could you please elaborate on what this is? Is the green jelly mint jelly?

The rest of us would ruin it by cooking the minced pork, then serving it on the bread.

Isn’t Irish stew just made with lamb/mutton? If so, that sounds delicious.

I’m mad that there aren’t googly eyes on the silverware.

That’s ok, just hit up GROK. He’d be happy to generate all sorts of porn for you, including CP.
