i know we rag pretty hard on online advertising here, but sometimes i don't think we give them enough for how well they manage to continually make things even stupider for everyone involved https://twitter.com/verge/status/1784599450935029920

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/25/movies/humane-review.html "Just after widespread ecological collapse, every country on earth has shut its borders and has committed to reducing its population within one year. In Canada, the target reduction is 20 percent, and to coax people into joining the effort, the government’s Department of Citizen Strategy has come up with language as euphemistic as its name. People who agree to be euthanized are “enlisting” in the “war.” Posters declare that “Enlistment = Opportunity,” because the families of those who enlist receive a substantial payout, enabling higher education or homeownership. But people haven’t been enlisting fast enough to reach the threshold. On TV news, some are beginning to discuss “conscription.”" lol if you think this aint happening in the next few decades. liberals and fascists agree: the best way to save ourselves is to kill all of the undesirables!! if you pull the trigger voluntarily we'll pay for college for your kids (just kidding its a tax credit). stop being such a burden!! *flies off in taylor swift's jet*

According to the posters, potatoes hate damp soils. Just let forget that Ireland is infamous for having tons of rain and damp soil. Guess that's why they had that potato famine, it could never thrive in those soils. NeonPunk has issued a correction as of 20:50 on Apr 29, 2024 |

Shipon posted:it's also because Israelis are a uniquely disgusting culture yet their sympathizers are loving everywhere in the us media, and actually seeing them say things revolts people enough to go "hey wait it's actually hosed up what they're doing to Palestine" Signing loyalty oaths to a country that neither party lives in, is a citizen of, or is involved in the transaction, is a very normal and healthy thing in a society.

NeonPunk posted:No, not at all. According to the posters, potatoes hate damp soils. I’ve been seeing constant stories like this for months and it’s a more regular thing over the years. I’ve seen tracked harvesters stuck in mud near me like tanks in the Somme (breadbasket of the UK) and this is a part of the country that is usually so dry, my garden develops cracks. We went from a summer in 2022 so hot it killed off a large chunk of the local wheat to drought, to a winter and spring now that has broken all kinds of precipitation and temperature swing records. You better believe, even if capital was removed from the equation, we’d be in trouble. They’re just making the most of getting their percentage.

Re: megacorp Veterinary My wife worked for one of those Mars subsidiaries when we met, and a few years later she got promoted from a vet assistant to clinic manager It only took about 9 months juggling the roles of basically managing a retail and medical business simultaneously (endless pressure from above to do whatever it takes to pump those numbers on selling healthcare "plans", while the medicine side is the supposed top priority) to completely derail her into having to quit and go find work in another field She's friends with a veterinarian who loathes her career at this point but there's no changing course with that much debt sunk into getting there It's a dog poo poo field to work in, and the private practices aren't any better, assistants and techs are even more horribly underpaid than the corporate gigs, some of the veterinarians who are double dipping as small business tyrants and numbed to the job stresses are probably doing alright e; the same location in question recently had a ~3 year old dog die while under anesthesia because they were shorthanded that day and had a receptionist monitoring during routine dental work again, the medical side is the top priority of course, but if you're in charge don't think too much about that when you're cutting hours or avoiding overtime like any other retail business The337th has issued a correction as of 23:39 on Apr 29, 2024 |
