Just had a customer service call with either a very good robot or a very awkward human, and I genuinely cannot tell which.

I made pizza at Casey’s gas station for a few weeks. I then got a second job at Wal-Mart, and Casey’s stopped scheduling me (thank god, it was so gross. Hamburger pizza is something I never want to think about again.)

Republicans Don’t Know Ball Update: A hockey blogger asked the two Michigan Senate candidates for statements on the Red Wings. Rogers: blah blah Michigan loves the Red Wings El-Sayed: angry rant about how the cheap owners MUST pay Detroit’s young star defenseman octopusthrower.com/what-each-mi...
"Hockeytown, USA will always be a coveted destination for the world's top players,"
Rogers said. "The Detroit Red Wings boast one of the league's most storied and respected histories, dating back to their days as one of the Original Six franchises.
Few professional organizations can match the tradition, legacy and rpestige that define this iconic franchise. GO WINGS!""I was at the game when Darren McCarty took on Claude Lemieux," El-Sayed said.
"The '97 and '98 Stanley Cup championships are still highlights of my childhood. The teams the last few years have been a far cry from the Wings I came to love as a kid. They're stacking losing season on losing season, yet the llitch family's wealth has done nothing but grow.
Michiganders are sick of sky-high ticket and concession prices buying them nothing but disappointment."The team holding out on Simon Edvinsson is just the latest example in a long series of ownership prioritizing their bottom line over the team and the fans. Our teams aren't just assets for billionaires, they're part of our culture and heritage. Hockeytown deserves better."

Don’t focus on anyone’s body, including your own, thinner friends. Even if you don’t say anything about my body size, if you’re talking about how fat you feel or having gained a pant size or whatever, it just becomes “if you’re so disgusted with yourself, what must you think of bigger me?”

Arsenal's cuts are indefensible when the football side is so indulged And they also cut to something much deeper amid current themes, from American corporatism in ownership to club's self image and how they act www.independent.co.uk/sport/footba...

Arsenal cutting jobs just days after Mikel Arteta’s £80m deal is simply indefensible
The Premier League champions have told staff of plans to cut at least 60 jobs, writes Miguel Delaney, which completely goes against the club’s traditional values of ‘doing things the right way’

"For so many years, there was a really strict line in the sand when it came to sports betting. Then the tide slowly began turning internally. It was very troubling for me to see the normalization of betting and ESPN’s complete acceptance of that, and finally, they just decided to go all in."

And anyone worried about Saka is going to be made to look very silly. Very confident he's going to score the most he's ever scored in a season.

Vote early and in person, folks. If you're in a "vote by mail" state and can deliver your mail-in vote directly rather than relying on USPS this year, do it. Otherwise get it into the mail at the earliest possible date. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The Postal Service is slowing delivery. Will your mail ballot be affected?

a little louder for the cheap seats in the back
One of the biggest myths is that men rape by mistake. Like, "Oh, they need consent training." But research is very clear: Sexual violence is not a mistake. It is an intentionally made decision by people who know they don't have consent. They just don't prioritize consent over things like status, power, domination, and sexual gratification.
For my research, I got a certificate of confidentiality from the National Institutes of Health, so my notes couldn't be subpoenaed. One of the reasons I call them perpetrators in my work is because every single person I interviewed confessed in that context. The first question I would ask them was, "When you received that email from Title IX that you were under investigation, did you know what it was about?" Every perpetrator I interviewed said "yes." If sexual assault were a miscommunication, you would be wondering, What have I possibly done wrong? That is not the way that any of them reacted because they knew.

Um this is amazing
Website comment reading: Oh NO, for years I have been sending holiday cards to my neighbors with a general season’s greeting and then ending it with “And I hope you have the 202X you deserve!” I thought it was, like, general good wishes without repeating all of the general holiday stuff.

I started sending the cards because my neighbors were kind of standoffish and to be honest things have not improved!! I was hoping several years of friendly cards would soften them but I didn’t know about the F you implication.

How do I recover from this????"
