I had loving tickets to a RATM with Run the Jewels opening for them, and then loving COVID happened. I'm still angry about that.

The terrible part of me suspects the 29 year old woman deciding to have a baby with her 83 year old rich and famous boyfriend is doing it as a cynical ploy to ensure financial security for herself after he passes. Also a TMZ article claims Pacino wanted a DNA test because he believed himself infertile at his age, so I don't think having a child was a conscious decision on his part. But this is all speculation based on tabloid articles so I also don't really want to dwell on it.

The last known daughter of a U.S. Civil War veteran died in 2020.

She had had a pension of seventy‐three dollars and thirteen cents per month.

Years ago I got a photo book of National Enquirer photos and there was a photo of Anna Nicole Smith and that old rich dude she married and then there was a bunch of lawsuits about the inheritance when he died and my mom (who's still married to my dad and just 11 months younger) just looked at me and said "she deserves every penny."

I also used to feel a bit bad for Melania Trump (not anymore because she's a terrible person) just because Donald is still alive. She had to have watched him eat once and said to herself "yeah, I could do this for five years," but instead it's been decades.

Who do you think the delivery fee goes to?

When we did it, mostly to kill time not to live thank god, some small % worse than a Pizza Hut or whatever goes to you, not enough to cover mileage, and you rely on a tip. The delivery fee is for the company.

Compared to getting generous mileage delivering for a “real” company that really employed me and paid real mileage that made me a slight profit to at least cover wear on the vehicle- if you want to order gig economy delivery ethically, tip the driver a bit more than you would from a place that employs its own delivery folks

E: also when you’re employed directly by the restaurant you get an hourly wage and assorted small benefits like snagging leftover food for free. Might be lovely, but it’s better than -profit on your ride and relying solely on tips

Places that deliver in my area have their own drivers for the most part, even those on Just Eat.

The delivery fee is set by the restaurant and if you're ordering through Just Eat, there's a separate service charge that the app gets.

Afaik all of this self censorship is just trying to read the tea leaves of the algorithm with nothing to back its efficacy. People think they don't get enough exposure compared to what they deserve, so it must be because they are secretly being punished, and they are punished because of... Bad words, i guess? When in reality it's just arbitrary if content succeeds or fails.

It's all just superstition as far as I know. The Algorithm is inscrutable and people will believe anything rather than acknowledge that whether they actually get success and attention is down to pure luck.

Were you not able to hold onto them? They wound up going on that tour last year and my tickets I bought in February 2020 were good for it. Of course if you’re in Europe you were SOL because Zack hosed up his leg on night two and they canceled that run after he had spent the whole American tour sitting down on stage.

Twitter? The site owned by Elon Musk, who accused a man of being a pedophile because Elon was butthurt about the other man receiving praise for rescuing 20-some stranded children? That site?

That's literally exactly it. Very little of the content of a post is taken into account by algorithm boosting. I also think people vastly overestimate the effect of algorithm boosts, on specific platforms. On some sites/apps, it is pretty important but my experience has been that the vast majority of people mostly want the content they follow and maybe occasionally a suggestion.

It's just because they assume the only reason they're not going viral with all their posts is they're being shadowbanned by the woke algorithm, but really it's because nobody likes reading chud posts or boosts them. Weird

I pulled her wiki page, and she has literally sold essential oil bottles branded "Snake Oil," and also tickets to a seminar called "The Scam." She sounds deeply unwell, but I also can't really feel bad for the people falling for it.
