Your commitments are the true road to salvation; the solution to an otherwise absurd existence. They don’t always give pleasure; they may even oppose and conflict with freedom or happiness, and that is the point: the more we sacrifice for something, the more value we assign to it
This confirms my belief that people cannot think for themselves. They all "loved" Budweiser but it never was for the taste or they wouldn't care about this boycott; instead, it was because they were sold on the idea of America in a bottle.
And if it's a good wage in their country, that doesn't make them helpful. It means they are warm bodies who show up. We have plenty of that in America, too, so please, no race cards. No nationalism, either. It's not about that.
It's about providing high-level customer support.
Of course @instacart was setup by an Indian.
I've been trying to get help to become a shopper for three weeks and their customer support is SO FUCKING HORRIBLE. I have no problems with Indians, but I do have a problem with exploiting cheap labor that does NOT help the customers.
@InstacartHelp I received an email to be approved for a shopper, but your representatives tell me I'm waiting for a background check approval because my driver's license number is missing. And I have no way to resubmit my documents.
@bobtehalien@JacobSethEly @ayers_sp @ericweinstein People have the right to bear arms when they are in organized militias which is what they were called when they were fighting the British when they wrote this. Again. Hope you feel good about your words.
@bobtehalien@JacobSethEly @ayers_sp @ericweinstein See I think you missed the word general in the reference to general public. People are also in the military and the people in the military are not necessarily the general public. So please tell me where it says that the general public have that right?
@JacobSethEly @ayers_sp @bobtehalien@ericweinstein By the way this thread was to discuss a hypothetical conversation between two parents, one who is pro guns laws and one who is anti-gun laws.
@JacobSethEly @ayers_sp @bobtehalien@ericweinstein Where does it say that the general public are intended to be the well regulated militia and not the government militia?
Imagine how different our political system would look — how much more accountable and responsible to the people it would be (rather than to the elites) — if we had secure elections with voter ID, proof of citizenship, verified voter rolls, and in-person same day voting.
Joe Biden’s strategy to bring gas prices down is to mindlessly yell at gas stations on camera.
We need an actual plan, not just a guy yelling at a camera!
