It kinda sounds like you’re arguing jn favor of your own racial supremacy. I assume you’re going for satire, but it’s difficult to distinguish between ironic racism and sincere racism.

That will get you a ban.

Despite some Republicans ostensibly trying to do the right thing, the effort failed because Fetterman is a piece of shit.

Ok but maybe was there a map to a treasure printed on the back of the hard drive?

I think we got a preview during Covid of just how selfish and lazy people can be. Stay home and wear a mask outside was far too much to ask of the American people. People murdered people over masking. Little piece of fabric over your nose and mouth, and only when you’re inside a store or public building. “No, I’d rather you be dead.”

When the water runs out and the air is toxic and the grocery shelves are bare, it’s going to be chaos.

We are going to avoid doing the hard things until the hard things are forced upon us. There’s too much profit in keeping things status quo, so any attempt to make the world a better place is met with the unified forces of unfettered capitalism.

Starting and ending every prompt and response with Sir probably doesn’t help.

There’s dozens of us

I agree, but without the linit, they own tens of thousands.

Corporations can still own up to 350 homes per investor group, and they can keep the ones they already own.

Well, not that shocked.

Also, kicking down the door leaves evidence and usually require some sort of justification or approval. If they have a key to a backdoor, they don’t have to tell anyone they were inside, or ask for permission to use it.

Then this conversation isn’t about you. Many places have exceptions to minimum wage for tipped employees. That, plus tip-out policies means that serving a customer that doesn’t tip can actually cost the server money.

We’re talking about the problem of tipping culture and complaints about being expected to tip too much. If you live in a country that pays waitstaff well, then this conversation isn’t about you. You can self select based on context clues.

I agree with you, and I don’t have a job that relies on tips. But I live in a place where tips are the source of income for servers, so if I use their services, I tip. I also vote for politicians who want to raise wages for servers and eliminate the exceptions to the minimum wages.

Tipping culture sucks. You and I agree on that. Servers should be paid decent wages, and tipping should be optional.

That ain’t the system we got, though. And you don’t change the system by abusing the victims of the system.

Did someone say this, or did you imagine it? 20% is standard for good service, but anything less than 15% is message that there was something wrong with the service. If you cannot afford to pay for good service, you should not seek good service.

Edit: Lotta downvotes, but all I’m hearing are the same tired arguments from cheap keyboard warriors who hate poor people. Nobody can point to anybody saying 40% is standard, and nobody has a solution to tipping culture that doesn’t involve victimizing tipped employees. You want to fix the system, let’s do that, but until we do, pay for the services you asked for.

There’s no design, so there’s no intent. We can predict what might happen, which ecological areas will collapse, which species will thrive, and as humans we can intervene to try to prevent disasters we se coming. The “endgame” is the heat death of the universe, at which point all life will be long dead.

They covered the Epstein files and nobody had any consequences.

Why be an asshole? This isn’t reddit. The number of comments from people in the thread who have experienced the exact same thing should clue you in that maybe you’re the insane one? This is a space for venting, so you are welcome to vent as long as you allow others the space to vent about their shit, too.
