I drove for @hellofresh as a contractor. Thousands upon thousands of deliveries out of one of their warehouses.
The audits were run by an upper-management 'boss babe' who walked the floor pushing crystal therapies and demanding pronoun discipline. The employees mumbled the magic words and went home with pitiful paychecks. They could not argue with the woman who decided if they kept the job. That was the culture two years before the ad. The ad is what happens when that culture stops hiding.
HelloFresh does not even keep its own drivers. They ran on temp agencies. When they tried contractors like me, we cost more than the temps, so they cut their own people loose and went back to the cheapest body they could find. The company that will not pay its drivers fairly will pay a marketing team six figures to write this:
"For those of you who are… prepping… we have an extensive lineup of high-fiber recipes available. Happy Pride."
When a commenter floated the code BOTTOMSUP, the company replied with a real discount. "You ask, we deliver. Literally."
A meal-kit company has told you which one of your holes they want you to load their product into and out of. They capitalize on the gays as colons with credit cards. They think suburban moms are too dim to read between the lines. They think you will laugh and let the autopay roll.
This is the same company the Department of Labor caught using migrant children in its facilities in 2024. They blamed a staffing contractor. They always blame the staffing contractor. The company that cannot tell you who packed its food is the one marketing their products to customer rectums.
@factormeals is HelloFresh. @EveryPlate_ is HelloFresh. @greenchef is HelloFresh.
Same warehouse, same conveyor, same audit lady. Canceling Factor and switching to EveryPlate is moving rooms inside the same burning house.
Cancel all of them. Tell them exactly why in the cancellation field. Buy a chicken from a butcher. Plant a tomato in your own garden.
Burn the box. Bury the brand. Build something better.
We will be a proper country again when these filth-mongers are on trial.
Oh good grief?!
Unbelievable.
Do they advertise for colonoscopy bowel prep? No… didn’t think so… you’d have to ask WHY anyone thought this was appropriate, ever.
@henrycooke@MomoStJohn 1. Dep Commissioner has child porn/beastiality on work laptop -> NO JAIL
2. Commissioner knew about 1 & did nothing -> no outcome for him
3. Top cop ignores obligation to reveal political conflict until too late->no real outcome for him
We have MAJOR issues with our senior cops
How can you claim someone has the ‘utmost integrity’ when they have lied to their employer & clearly failed to be politically neutral in a public service role - the two are incompatible - he has no integrity. He left it to the last minute to declare he’s a political candidate.
@Shut_the_fridge@BillyBrown1983 Nothing to do with entitled or not - the poster I’ve replied to said, National and ACT ‘won’t help’ Maori - yet benefits exist and continue to exist when National and ACT ARE the Govt and Maori take advantage of that… how is a factual statement ‘strange’?
@CarRipTowKen@matt_horncastle Explain, given they’re our largest beef importer and in our top 3 we trade with and would save our sorry arses if China kicked off in the pacific?
@matt_horncastle Immigration, unchecked, incompatible with NZ life & culture, breakdown of families - insecure housing - constant trans promotion & inappropriate sexualized content taught in our schools to minors - importation of competing food products - the ETS & waste tax - over fat govt depts
@Shut_the_fridge@BillyBrown1983 But they are ‘helping’ we have a social welfare system and Maori take full advantage of it… that doesn’t change no matter who the government is.
This will be us!
@dbseymour@winstonpeters@chrisluxonmp we need immigration policy right, can we please, please not follow the rest of the world?
Keep NZ a paradise - a safe place where grooming gangs don’t get the chance to rape children & known knife carriers kill our teens.
Newly arrived African in Australia has been arrested after going on a stabbing rampage & stabbing 2 people in Epping, Melbourne.
Epping has become a dangerous no go zone in Melbourne.
"Livestock use 83% of the world's farmland and give back just 18% of our calories."
There it is. The killer stat, lifted off the infographic, courtesy of Poore and Nemecek's enormous 2018 study in Science: nearly 38,700 farms across 119 countries. Damning. Wildly inefficient. Somebody fetch the cow a P45.
One small question before sentencing. Where is that 83% of land?
It's grass. Worldwide, around two-thirds of all farmland isn't cropland at all; it's pasture and rough grazing. Fell, moor, steppe, marsh, scrub.
Marginal land, to use the term of art. Too steep, thin, wet, or cold to grow a single thing a human can chew.
In Britain, about 65% of farmland is good for grass and little else. You are welcome to plant lentils on a Cumbrian hillside. You will then watch them sit there, baffled, and die.
What that land does grow is cellulose, the most abundant biomass on Earth and a substance your gut regards as scaffolding. You cannot eat it. Nor can any pig, chicken, or vegan.
A ruminant can. That is the entire trick. She walks across the inedible two-thirds of the world's farmland and turns it into milk and meat.
So the cow isn't squatting on prime arable while the nation starves; she's working the land that grows precisely one crop, grass, which she eats, which is the whole point of her.
Calling that inefficient is like calling a fishing boat inefficient for its poor performance on the motorway.
Then there's the calorie sleight of hand, which is somehow the dafter half.
Yes, beef is a modest share of calories. So is a glass of cooking oil. You can get calories from a spoon of sugar. Calories are the easy part.
The hard part is everything else the steak is carrying. On DIAAS, the actual measure of protein quality, beef scores about 1.0 to 1.1, with milk and eggs a shade higher.
Wheat limps in around 0.45. Almonds manage 0.40. The FAO won't let a protein scoring under 0.75 make a quality claim at all, which quietly disqualifies most of the plant kingdom.
Then there's B12, of which plants contain essentially none, plus heme iron and zinc in a form your body can actually be bothered to absorb.
Ranking food by raw calories and declaring the steak a failure is like ranking a library by how well the books burn.
By that measure, petrol is the finest meal in Britain.
@GregPresland Not when they use their employment role and resources paid for by their employer to promote a personal political position… that’s never acceptable.
Africans hold a machete to the throat of a young White boy in Melbourne & tell him he’s going to die.
The Africans then force the 2 White boys to fight or they will kill them both.
This is multiculturalism.
This is ‘New Modern’ Australia.
WE DON’T HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS.
PROTECT ours nations kids 🤍
If it is this bad NOW, imagine a few more years of third world immigration.
Horrific details laid out by the judge at Digwa sentencing.
As follows;
Digwa used his own mobile phone to film his victim attempting to escape by climbing onto a commercial rubbish bin and over a fence, while Digwa taunted: 'You're not going to get away with this big man.'
Sentencing Digwa, Judge William Mousley KC said: 'You continued to make films of Henry suffering, ignoring much of his desperation at having been stabbed. You told him that had not happened, no doubt to convince others who were nearby.' These clips have not been released.
Henry managed to land on top of a car parked in front of number 68, on the other side of the fence he jumped over. Digwa went on to take close-up photos of the incapacitated Henry lying on the ground.
In footage from a home security camera, Henry was heard saying 'I am dying', with Digwa replying, 'you're not dying bro'.
Ten minutes later, Henry said 'you stabbed me', with Digwa responding, 'no, I didn't', and, 'you were recording me thinking you're sick', which is slang for 'tough'.
In that ten-minute period, Digwa did not call an ambulance - but did film Henry for a full five minutes.
This clip was not played in court for being 'too disturbing to be shown'. The court heard the attack was not witnessed but neighbours heard Henry say he had been stabbed and was dying.
