It’s not free. It comes from our taxes. School lunch is free for the kid, and paid for by taxes.

And if you think that’s a bad thing, then why does the military give free lunches to its soldiers?

There’s been two decades worth of lawsuits because PayPal has a history of withholding revenue and blocking stores from small e-commerce stores.

I’m talking about e-commerce sites selling a board game, making $40k in sales through paypal, and PayPal refuses to give them money.

PayPal’s stance has been, “Fuck you sue us.”

I’m not saying this because I think Peter Thiel, who was one of the creators of Paypal, is a fucking evil villain.

Loss of income is really difficult to sue for. Especially if you’re an indie company in another country, trying to sue an international company. You either sue locally, or open up a office in their nation.

And your case has to be rock solid.

Like tech companies still lose cases around loss of income, even when it’s obvious to the average person that the major company is going out of their way to stamp out competition.

In America we’d call that a War on Retirement, smear the politicians with ads, and ensure all the poor red states vote against it because it’s a attack on freedom.

On a road trip, I drove by a farm that sells "Sweet Cron’.

Thinking it was a mistake, I saw more signs bragging about the Sweet Cron they had. So definitely on purpose.

English is my only language and yeah.

Well obviously the boy toys are the ones I use my penis to play with.

Had a similar experience. Job wanted me but I’m not spending 2 hours commuting.

This was before remote work was a common thing.

Because if someone says something sexist/racist/stupid, don’t let them get away with it.

If we can shoot at tornados, we can find a way to shoot at capitalism.

Come and join my webring on Neocities.

Sign the guest book.

Scream at my aggressive CSS.

This is my takeaway from listening to NPR Planet Money.

Economists are never sure about anything, because that’s not how the world works. They only give rough estimations based on the current data, and say words like “maybe” or “high possibility”.

They’re not sith lords.

Leo DiCaprio buying luxury hotels in Israel energy while Gaza Holocaust is happening.

Working at big major companies, email/harassment campaigns work.

Some psychopath got the news journalists on my company because we didn’t have a giant American flag in our campus. We were getting hundreds of emails from randos, were getting review bombed online, and they were even sending letters to the CEO.

We called it flag gate internally. And after a month, there’s that stupid flag.

Yeah, no one “flashes a Mensa card” unless they are a jerk.

One time I made fun of people who do cross fit and someone at the table said “I do CrossFit.” Then I said, “It’s almost as annoying as people who flex over their AMEX card.” And another guy pulled out his AMEX card.

I regret not bringing up a Mensa Card.

I had a few parking tickets.

First time, it was completely dismissed because the ticket wasn’t accurate date/time. Officer didn’t show up to challenge it.

Second time, it was completely dismissed because I did not break any laws and the photo didn’t explain anything.

Third time, I had to pay a fine, which was lowered significantly because I realized my issue, admitted fault and promised to do better.

Very critical. Scream it from every rooftop.

If you get arrested and given a fine over a couple hundred dollars, always find a lawyer. Police will often throw in bullshit issues to get something to stick in court.

It’s a shame that lawyers get made fun of, when most lawyers I know hate police and only want to right wrongs.

I’m curious too!

Literally thought this was a meme about the travel influencers and those people who attend every concert without ever holding down a job.

Love to see this grow.

Like most kids, I was enamored by the 90s Disney animations. So while Pixar was dominating, I got a bachelor’s in 2D animation.

Graduated to no jobs. Animation work is shipped overseas. And the little animation jobs there are were concentrated in a few parts of the US.

Not once have I ever made any income from my background.

Been working on marketing for a decade adding more garbage to this world.
