@Patronhippie Jesus: Let's feed everyone here!
Pence: That's horrible!
Jesus: Rich men have a hard time getting into heaven 'cause of their pride.
Pence: BUT MY MONEY!
Jesus: This poor widow is greater in heaven because she doesn't give for glory.
Pence: FUCK THE POOR!
@FiercelyNormal I bought a bunch of lipstick at the end of 2019 with the intention of being all fancy in 2020. Now it's December 2020, and I'm like "If I'm wearing a mask, it'll just get dirty if I put on any makeup at all! Better not risk it!"
@Sweedaly There's plenty of movies where it's so clear that they're made by people who have only ever lived in California their whole lives and think 40f/4C is cold.
@Saltandburnb0ys The last Mission Impossible really wasn't as good as the two before it, though. (Also, yes. There's been enough shit that's gone down with him over the years that I'm not going to praise him for his latest rant.)
@AndrewSolender Move to start calling the author of this condescending trash "Joey Eppy" on every article from now on. Because he shouldn't be using his big boy name anymore now that he's got a job where he doesn't need it.
@WineStainedLife@Patronhippie@realDonaldTrump@USPS For real. People blame Covid for it, but there was a distinct change between Covid overflow and what happened when they removed sorting machines. (Saying this as somebody who ships for a living, there was a multi day slowdown from ONLY Dejoy's and ONLY Dejoy's changes.)
@BellaGattino@Sweedaly And they also skate by on just shutting the doors of WalMarts that do pass the vote to unionize because they're "Going out of business!" not actively working against a union! And shit. Businesses put a hell of a lot of effort into making sure their workers have no power.
@BellaGattino@Sweedaly Yep. I went through that too. The one day I worked at walmart. Thing is, that SHOULD be illegal based on the Sherman Anti-Trust act, but WalMart skates by on technicalities because they're not stopping a union from being formed. They're just "sharing information!"
@Sweedaly@BellaGattino Oh, I know. I've been both union and a manager of union and salaried employees. But American Business put a LOT of effort into convincing people they didn't need unions because the government was there to protect them.
@Sweedaly@BellaGattino But even then... most companies know to say "It's not because she was pregnant, but for this suddenly unheard of "poor performance!" "It's not because they're old and about to retire! It's because they're, uh, late to work a lot!" So 2 weeks notice is pretty standard.
@Sweedaly@BellaGattino We also have crap labor laws in most states. As in, a company can fire you at any time for any reason with no notice - with the exception being if you're in a union or protected under the small list of federal no-nos.
And now the wait to see which art I got in the RBB.
I miss LJ for this kind of thing. It was always nice to be able to see claims going so I'd know if I had to submit a new rack of claims. (Plus there was always that level of excitement through the whole event.)
Women write fanfic = creepy, weird, and stupid.
Men write fanfic = innovative, interpretive, wildly creative, best sellers and movie/tv adaptations!
Women make fan art = strange, obsessive, should be ashamed.
Men make fan art = amazing, "Somebody should hire this guy!"
