I find her choice in partner far more troubling than his age.

What we really need is all of these trump voters that are jumping ship to realize that they cannot trust their own judgement until they put in some work. To vote for Trump several times is all the evidence needed to decide “I am a mark, and I need to do some work on myself”

Sorry for the typo. “Could be anything” is meant to be separate sentence. Life is hard.

It is hilarious that this image was the “smoking gun” could be anything.

Yeah… I noticed that as well. I thought I was the only one autographing Denny’s menus. I like to use dennys menus for all my binding legal documents as well. Me: “just sign here by ‘moons over my hammy’ breakfast and the divorce will be final.”

100% I think another under appreciated aspect of this is how much recent pre-AI tech has groomed us to accept artificiality as a generalized condition of modern life. The runway for a acrificing ethos to artificiality was there already.

I attended an Orange County CA evangelical school growing up before 9/11. There were a fair amount of Muslims who sent their children there. Unthinkable now. The unity people felt after 9/11 was unifying to hate, kill, and terrorize our Muslim neighbors at home and abroad. Never forget: that.

Starbucks Workers United @sbworkersunited.org · 25/08/2026
🚨BREAKING: Our union of over 12,000 baristas are officially calling for a Starbucks boycott. Read this statement penned by Starbucks workers on why a boycott from ALL customers, allies, and organizations is necessary to fight back against corporate greed:
BOYCOTT STARBUCKS is written inside a zig-zaggy speech bubble against crumbled paper. Beside it are the Starbucks Workers United logo and an image of a coffee cup being poured out.We, the 12,000 and growing members of Starbucks Workers United, call on everyone who stands with working people to boycott Starbucks until they finalize a contract with union baristas and stop union-busting.
What we’re fighting for is simple: a minimum $17/hr wage, enough hours to live on, better staffing in our stores, and basic workplace protections. Every year, our living costs rise but our wages don’t keep up – a growing pressure many American workers are feeling as corporate greed accelerates unchecked in our country. 
Starbucks is banking on customers' blind loyalty to the integrity and values this company once stood for in order to keep squeezing them for profits. At a time when working-class people across the country are struggling in a challenging economy, it is no longer possible to be both a Starbucks customer and in support of workers; choosing to spend money at Starbucks is choosing a law breaking corporation over the baristas who make your coffee everyday exactly as you ask for it.
Starbucks has violated U.S. labor law more than any other company in modern history–the NLRB and its judges have found that Starbucks committed hundreds of labor violations and there are currently more than 550 unresolved unfair labor practice charges still pending against the company. Instead of finalizing a fair and reasonable union contract, Starbucks has repeatedly demonstrated a lack of care for the workers who fuel the company’s profits by wasting millions of dollars on AI and technology that doesn’t work, launching countless gimmicky drinks designed to distract from real problems, and inventing pointless policies that do nothing but make our jobs harder. 
This ongoing, irrational behavior by Starbucks and its refusal to settle a fair union contract with workers leaves us with no other choice than to call for a boycott. We know when working people stand up together, we win. 
No Contract? No Coffee.

It does not seem likely that anyone under the age of 27 or so will ever get a job in that field. Is that a misperception?

While Anthony Kiedis and Bill Cosby don’t really sound very similar, it is seemlessly easy to sing “Give it away now” in a Cosby voice. And let’s just say that it works “thematically.” I’m not sure what to do with this information. Please advise.
