I really like the table service dinner theater setup. Between my gf and I we probably pay like $80-90 to see a movie but the one near us has really good food and is locally owned. She’s a teacher and her movie tickets are free all summer too

Yeah pretty much. Also if you list anything over 300 dollars or so, you will be deluged by scammers with extremely fake accounts, and when reported Fb says :shuckyes: 'no problem found' :shuckyes:

Fb moderation is a joke. I reported a blatant scam the other day, like someone’s account was hacked and it was an obvious phishing site, and the results of the report were just like “Hahahahahahahaha How The gently caress Is Cyber Scamming Real Hahahaha Just Walk Away From The Screen Like Close Your Eyes Haha”

Having been to the UK, there’s a lot more thought put into self checkout there. It’s kind of a weird free for all in the US that also can get you put in jail if you’re black and make any kind of mistake

I want to complain about Salad and Go which is an AZ/TX chain that basically lets you build your own giant salad for 6 bucks. It was amazing. It still is pretty good. But over the last year they are showing the signs of enshitifcation and it makes me very sad.

Also rip the breakfast burrito, salad, and drink for $10 combo. All days worth of food for :10bux:

They own Angie’s lobster which is the new cheap good food place for now, got one up the street from me in AZ and it rules

It’s the group, Facebook auto moderation absolutely does give a poo poo. The group has gotten several strikes and has a notice that it is in danger of being deleted. They had to turn on manual approval for posts to stop the strikes.

I already pack more food than she needs in her lunch box every day so she can give the extras out, I am trying to figure out how I can affordably make sure her 1st hour is fed every day 😢

Does anybody actually like these loving things, they usually contain something so trite and maudlin as to be offensive. The Voight-Kampff test is actually being shown a Hallmark card. If you are touched by it the bladerunner comes and puts a bullet in your head.

I missed this post during greeting card chat but to circle back around it’s basically one of the only ways you can still preserve someone’s handwriting anymore or even receive a handwritten note and if you’re maudlin like I am occasionally it’s nice to read something someone wrote who isn’t around anymore. I love getting them even if the card sucks

Teaching does not make number go up and it doesn't produce commodities either so it gets poo poo from reactionaries, vulgar Marxists, and :airquote:"""dirtbag left""":airquote: types alike.

In Wednesday I drove 300 miles

If I went 55 (speed limit ) it would have taken 5:30

If I went 70 (I did ) it took 4:20

Not including stops

Edit

The math is probably woefully wrong

By your example then to save even 10 hrs, which is the minimum of the scale you provided, you’d have to drive 3000 miles in a month which is a full quarter of what the average driver does in a year. I’m not convinced.

My gf and I live in the community we do most of our stuff in including work and it’s actually way cooler than driving 3000-6000 miles a month

If we have to go 300 miles we fly which is actually much more efficient per the metrics presented

My gf has cold urticaria and all the trim levels that have seat warmers so she doesn’t break out into hives are leather which also gets really cold so I had to get remote start for her so she could warm it up

People were absolute savages at the Eras Tour in a way I’ve never seen before honestly. It was like everyone forgot how to act. Even near concessions we had a near crush and a little girl in a wheelchair was being practically bowled over. I’m big and loud and had to start hollering at people to clear a path for her or she would’ve been stuck forever.

Let me tell that to the people who didn’t have a panel installed for a generator when Texas froze a couple years ago and needed heat, we should’ve just called an electrician first and let my disabled neighbor freeze to death. It works for what it needs to when it needs to
