They take all the land, water, and government handouts and then cry that single moms on food stamps are ruining the country.

I’ve just had some pretty good nights in just me, a bottle of wine, and a movie

Just because you have an opinion doesnt make it valid.

Howdy Arabia is a police state hellscape. I cant wait for my parents to retire and move back up north so i never have to go back to that hellhole ever again.

He wasn’t better, he just had more legitimatacy since he was the party leader during the last election. Hell, Sunak resigned from said government before Johnson resigned. That’s why there were calls for a new election after Truss resigned, but the Tories refused because they knew they would get clobbered at the polls.

Man i absolutely destroy my neighbor’s kids in Mario Kart. Years of playing Beerio kart in college have made me an absolute monster at house parties.

Sure, but Sunak wasnt even the second choice for the Tories during the last election. He’s in the Gerald Ford grey zone where no one feels like they voted for him, making him seem illegitimate. The British public voted for the Tories in 2019 (because they are morons) with the expectation that Boris Johnson would be in charge. Now the head of the party has resigned twice since then. In theory it’sall standard procedure for Parliament, but it’s a clearly unstable government and viewed as a farce at this point.

My old company had a saved spreadsheet on the O:drive called “Passwords”

I’m 100% never going to download an app for a restaurant. I atopped getting my free World Series Taco from Taco Bell the year they required the app.

Yeah, it’s spamming that guys phone to get get is spcial security number.

I’m 28 and i can barely figure out how to order from the stupid kiosks at McDonald’s. It took my brither and I ages to figure out how to order a breakfast meal with a mocha in a road trip, and after a lot of arguing and swearing i still didnt end up with the meal i wanted. I should have just used the bathroom and used the drive through because the attendant actually understands how to use the system.

From the grocery store’s perspective, at least in the US, it keeps the checkout lines moving way faster when some kid who is trained to bag groceries does it, rather than waiting for the customer to figure out how to pack it.

What a girlboss

I’m saying that those who create are entitled to the value of what they create. If a company asks to look iver some of your work before hiring you, says that they aren’t interested, and then you see them using that work afterwards i doubt you would be saying “well, information should be free”.

If you want to write stories, draw pictures, make movies or webshows and distribute then for free ti everyone, then that’s a noble initiative, but creatives depend on what they create for their livelyhood.

They would have been fucked if it was a crocodile. American alligators are usually super chill and aren’t a problem so long as you aren’t actively antagonizing them. Crocodiles, meanwhile, are colossal assholes that are always looking to fuck up someone’s day.

He wasn’t quoting people though, he was straight up reading other people’s work and claiming it as his own. Like whole paragraphs at a time just copy/pasted with a couple words swapped out. Even with proper citations you would be kicked out of college for plagiarizing if you submitted something like that.

How is creating a popular a novel any different than creating a popular object? Hundreds of hours of labor go into both and the creators are entitled to the full value of said labor.

Say you have an amazing story about the vacation you took last year, and told all your friends about it. You would justifiably be pissed if you later found out one of your friends was telling that story as if they had done it. It’s the same for someone who writes a book or any other form of media.

I pronounce both without the l. It just feels so clunky to say

I think it’s optional in “salmonella”. I was a biology student in college and heard both pronunciations all the time.

Other countries dont need to pay more for drugs. Pharma companies are taking advantage of Americans, having tax dollars fund research and then chsrging exorbitant prices to those same taxpayers.
