Capitalism and Oppression.

Your data has monetary value to google. Giving them access, without getting any money from them (or even knowing what ways it will be used) is not something you must do.

If the app provides enough value that is unique to it, then thats OK, but if a data-respecting alternative exists that costs nothing to download or use, and fits the same (or more) needs, then using it just makes sense.

If thats not you, then thats ok.

I also use keep, but thats because I haven’t degoogled my phone yet, so they already have most if not all of that data. Once I am in a position to be able to root and remove google without risking bricking my device (currently unhoused, and just cannot risk it rn), then I plan on never touching the damn thing.

To each their own.

No, for yours 😘

Magnum condoms.

I like them big. 💜

Ha! Clever

I’m about ready to start disposing of these fucks.

Exactly! There should be a browser extension for training YouTube’s algorithm and even other ones. I’ve been very comitted to never feeding that beast after midnight, so I thoroughly enjoy content thatd positive as much as I want.

Its not just validation for the deceased, but also for the people they loved and cared for.

Sides?

The goal wasnt to cause the least discomfort to both parties, the goal was to get the house vacuumed appropriately. What he was doing before isn’t relevant, because it wasn’t sufficient. What she was doing before isn’t relevant because she did more than necessary to reach a level of acceptable cleanliness.

So given the new amount, she wanted to split duties 50/50, he was focused on what he was doing before.

Hey, just wanted to say: Fuck cancer, you beat its bitch ass to a pulp for good now, ya hear?

Somebody missed the schoolhouse rock that explained “compromise”, what a dullard lol

This.

Or a dead one

Currently next to my partner who is playing/using a app called Finch thats a mix between Sims decoration and a habit tracker, and of checks all your boxes. The artwork is adorable.

That said, all of the games I play are for girls, because I am a girl

There are many questionable practices in museum work, and of course the Lourve might be the one of the worst when it comes to that. But I have never been to place with sooooo many well preserved sculptures with super thorough explanations. I LOVE sculpture, especially the ones made with less than forgivable media for making mistakes. The Three Graces is absolutely captivating.

And the site of the easiest to plainly identify earliest example of graffiti. Some Viking wrote on it long ago “Half-Dan was here”

I’m sorry, but fuck Wendy’s. Yes, capitalism is in decline around us all, but fuck Wendy’s for deciding they’re gonna be the first in fast food to push that envelope to full-blown-shit mode. And their burgers are just eh.

(Hey, pssst… so, quoting etiquette typically means you’re not using the quoting carrot on something not in the the comment you are replying to without noting it in the comment somehow. I was staring very confused at my replies inbox for, like, 4-5 read throughs of your reply, because its an opinion I could have typed, and couldn’t remember at all lol. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️)

I know, I saw it, and I don’t envy franchisers who’ve fallen victim to it. But passing along the fuckery to an employee is so. not. ok.

Which is hilarious, because its not as if they pay enough people to be on shift at the same time so that they could make their menu items efficiently. The last 2 dozen times I’ve had to pick up someone’s order from one of 5 or so local Subway’s, they have had 1 single person running the entire joint. I’ve made it a point to ask every time I go:

• -how many people are supposed to be working today?

1, and about half of them opened alone, and all were closing alone! (Even young women!!!)

• -Is it always this busy? (Every time its a 12-30min wait for them to even begin the order)

Always gets met with some form of “Yes, or even busier, with the occasional half hour where nobody comes in”

• -Are you the manager?

Nope.

Its at that point I tell them to take all the time they need. And that they are dramatically underpaid and should riot…

Five guys is at the very bottom of my “list of things that are so needlessly expensive that now I actively hate”.

Cause they’re so fucking good, and they use better stuff than most.

The moment that changes… will be the day I either go no-beef, or start rioting.
