It's more the brands invasion. The kid is real sad, but the brands parasitizing our kids is what fires up some pure Celtic bloodlust.

Corporations literally pay the school system to put corporate ads/branding on the take home folders of the kids. For 500 bucks you could have MYCOMANCY emblazened on the front of every kid's folder.

It occurred to me that spacetoaster has posted those brands pics and the binder thing before. I remember being concerned and mildly annoyed, but right now I feel nauseated and very angry. Has the world gotten that much worse since the last time I saw those?

I'm not sure what the correct thread to post about it is, but there are a lot of kids (I'm talking single digit ages) with pepe for their computer screen savers, doing the "OK" sign and not meaning OK, and saying "subscribe to pewdiepie". Honestly the corporate stuff is kinda taking a backseat to the concerns I have over internet poisoning that is occurring in very young children these days.

Nah, it's as hosed as it's been for ~40 years, you're just more aware of it. Obama was pushing drone strikes, America forgot about genocide during Clinton, and so on. Being a leftist means you get to know why everything is terrible and has been since before your grandparents were born. It's no loving wonder we have a hard time recruiting people, combined with the constant infighting and obscure philosophy fetish. the worst part is, as soon as you start to learn some of this stuff you'll never be able to forget or stop looking completely, it's like the ring for guilt

I remember in Middle and High School, they would provide us with piles of free book covers that were just covered in advertisements. My high school had a big all hands assembly for the roll-out of Surge. We got free swag bags, food, and Surge. After the assembly a Surge vending machine was installed in the commons, and the Surge cost significantly less than the other vending machines. I'm sure a lot more happened in the 90's, I just didn't realize it at the time.

That sounds like too much watching fortnite on twitch. I bet they have no idea how any of those things mean something other than "weird funny gaming thing".

Cartoons in the 90s and beyond weren’t much better. If the show wasn’t trying to sell toys, there was plenty of advertisements pushing poo poo on kids.

I mean that Rice Krispie ad is faded all to hell so it's at least 10 years old. Hell when I was a kid the chicken fried steak lunch was called "Grandys" even though I'm pretty sure none of my peers has ever been in one of those dumps.

Moridin920 posted:It's cheaper for me to buy a prepaid debit card with my credit card than it is to take a cash advance for the same amount off the credit card. Why? gently caress me that's why. Careful, sometimes credit cards count purchases like that as advances and apply interest accordingly. And they make that balance the last to be paid off, so if you already carry a balance you may end up paying thousands on it.

Assuming your card allows it the reason why is because they get the fees for processing the purchase and they aren't hit immediately for losing the cash. A cash advance means that the credit card won't get any fees from the processing and they take an immediate hit to a loss of liquid assets; which is why they charge so much for it (and also why they generally severely limit the total amount you can cash advance).

I asked my bosses for a new desk chair in the fall of 2017 because mine was poo poo. In March 2018 I hacked up a PVC pipe and used it to prop the thing since the hydraulic was completely shot. Well last week I started a GoFundMe since they refused to do their job and buy me a chair since "we're getting a remodel this And I funded myself a new desk chair since my cheap rear end bosses wouldn't do it for me. That's my capitalism success story right there. Fuckers.

Oh looks like I'll need a new chair after all, the old one spontaneously combusted while nobody was looking. Please ignore the axe marks and how the smoldering remains somehow got thrown through the CEO's office window, the... firefighters did that, to ventilate the smoke you see

They went "Len we found you a new chair" and gave me one that was more comfortable to sit on but also had a busted hydraulic. Then they tossed my old one in a dumpster. In order to get a nonbroken chair I need to wait for someone to point out first because the only free chairs are broken and I'm lowest on the totem pole. The old boss is just an awful person who likes making people miserable. And even though she isn't out boss she still runs the office because new boss has no spine.
