I got an ubereats coupon email for like $25 off a year or so ago so I got a delivery for one meal from one of the greek places but somehow with fees & tip I still ended up paying $10 more in addition to the $25.

When I was in socal I'd order from yummy.com a lot but it came in 30 minutes & covered groceries & reading materials as well as hot food, and I don't think there was even a delivery charge aside from a tip. It was wonderful getting soup delivered when I was sick.

In an SEC filing Friday, the company said that on May 26, 2023, it removed “certain produced content” from its direct-to-consumer streaming services. As a result, Disney will record a $1.5 billion impairment charge in its fiscal third quarter financial statements “to adjust the carrying value of these content assets to fair value.”

Disney said it’s continuing to review content on streaming platforms and “currently anticipates additional produced content will be removed from its DTC and other platforms, largely during the remainder of its third fiscal quarter.” As a result, Disney currently estimates it may incur further impairment charges of up to about $400 million related to produced content.

On Disney’s earnings call last month, CFO Christine McCarthy had said the company expected to take a write-down in the June quarter of $1.5 billion-$1.8 billion from removing content from its streaming platforms. By writing down the value of the content assets, Disney can remove that from its balance sheet and reduce its tax bill.

i never get delivery purely because it's cheaper and faster to just put in an order online and then pick it up myself. i guess if you live in the suburbs and would have to drive 25 minutes to the nearest starbucks and you're actually on the clock working from home (lol) there is a use case

i don't like how much that gig hypernormalization has occured. seems bad sign for solidarity and worker rights support if everyone is hooked, especially food delivery. but yes it seems like everyone is deeply into it and seriously someone here is getting starbucks lattes delivered every m-f morning; my previous neighbors in the nextdoor apartment were getting, no exaggeration, doordash twice a day everyday of the week; and downtown area has pretty much just turned into a double (sometimes triple!) parked cars w/ hazard lights blinkin away like a symphony of doordashers/uber eats.

i've even seen taco bell, kfc, mcdonalds, etc with regular frequency.... which wtf. i don't even think i live in a rich apartment building, it's old and non-luxury so it's weird how 'normies' are all spending a thousand dollars a week on delivery.

if i was a more malicious person, i could eat like a king with everyone coming to my door.
