Same thing happened when skilled labor was being replaced by machines in 1800s with the Luddites.

During production yes, but think of the amount of carbon that would have been produced if you hadn’t used your enemies skull. Your enemy might have reproduced and had more kids to make even more CO2.

Maybe they should start letting us roll down the window again on planes then.

I hear you, but for some reason I don’t believe you. I grew up in the 80s and never experienced cigs on a plane, but I have a feeling the smoke smell spread further than the seated row before smoking.

Oh damn. The shirt I was gonna wear is stinky. Might as well just cancel plans. 😏

I feel the guys who think child support is oppression are sovcits. It would also be right up their alley.

Lindsey, You’re the Worst

If anyone hasn’t seen You’re the Worst, then you should. It was a great show with a enjoyable ending.

Yeah, I made that one up 😁.

All words are made up.

Thanks. I had the same complaint and it worked for me.

I’m guessing there was no FIFA 20 because of Covid?

I kinda like it when he does this. It lets me know which products to not buy. I skip over Goya when I’m looking for beans.

The issue is that tax payers are already paying for it. It cost money for cops to go out and arrest people, then process them. The homeless person ain’t going to show up to court later, and the tax payer usually eats the cost of all that plus any anti homeless benches or windows.

I think if that the cost gets directed toward housing and food, so they have a stable place to grow from, it would be a better option in the long run.

And here’s where I say - what does an executive actually do?

I just see them as a figure head for the people really in charge. We are now focused on dumb ass CEO decisions or announcements instead of the board voting to ship jobs overseas or something else terrible.

For your last part in tech jobs being paid well. You might wanna mention how the tech companies worked with each other to keep salaries down by not hiring other companies ex-employees.

I would post a reference but I can’t find the news article I read, this was sometime in the 90s and 00s. I’m sure there is some fuckery still going on. Google has really gone downhill since I can’t even find it…I used to be revered at my old job for my “Google Fu” and now I feel lost…

This reminds me of a stupid ass joke. I know it’s cringe but here it goes…

You know when you play metal or rock records backwards they say you will hear satanic messages or whatever BS panic was going on with KISS and all that?

Well guess you what you get when you play country music records backwards?

You get your dog back, you get your truck back, you get your girlfriend back.

The recoil is what I was thinking about first. No sandbags or anything to keep this baby in place means that you might get 1 or 2 shots before the gun falls backwards off the ledge. And that’s if racking the bolt doesn’t already do it.

Well, no they didn’t apologize. I didn’t expect them because of the situation. I was literally walking quickly through a crowd of people. They only had a very small window to talk before I was already moving away with my wife in hand. By the time I noticed and stopped and asked my wife, the good samaritan was far enough away in a crowded bar that she wouldn’t be able to say anything.

Maybe I don’t take offense because she didn’t treat me like a suspected harasser. She didn’t treat me like anything. She looked out for my wife. I greatly appreciate that she was looking out for customers that drank too much. That was the end of my thoughts.

Why should I be offended that the club was trying to make sure their customers were safe? I guess I would be offended if they stopped me and separated us and asked 20 questions, but that isn’t the case. The interaction took maybe 5 seconds and I didn’t noticed until I was pulling on her arm and had some resistance. I looked back and by that time she was pulling herself toward me.
