I wonder if they did it intentionally.
Changing the pill from red to blue basically cost them nothing and served no purpose, but just so happened to ruin the metaphor.

But my estradiol is a blue pill? 🤔
- Comment on Hail corporate (they did it tho) 3 weeks ago:
No. Profit is revenue in excess of costs, yes, but the cost of building a table isn’t merely the cost of the materials. Costs also include the time and effort spent building the table, the time and effort spent learning to build tables, and the cost of acquiring tools with which to build, and the cost of having a space in which to build.
When you factor these other costs in to the table, the builder breaks even. Yes, even if they end up with more money than with which they started. They simply exchanged their time and effort for money, but they can never get that time back can they?

Yeah, adult dinosaur toys would have feathers.
- Comment on Hail corporate (they did it tho) 3 weeks ago:
Instead of paying workers what they are worth, they are paid a market wage that is always less than the value they produce.
That’s where profit comes from.

So you’re the reason they haven’t gone out of business.

Yeah dude, the country brutalized by economic sanctions with its currency in free-fall can afford better PR than the richest country on Earth. 🤡

You’re being sanctimonious again.
There are the people who agree that terrorism is bad, but want to discuss the things he had to say anyway. For them, you’re just ignoring the premise of the thread with your oh so brave condemnation of terrorism. It’s not that they disagree with your condemnation, but rather, they want to discuss him and the things they agree with despite it.
- Comment on The unAbomber. Otherwise, I agree. 1 month ago:
And you’re so brave for condemning terrorism.
- Comment on The Iranians HAVE to realize that demanding the release of the unredacted Epstein files as a condition to re-open the strait of Hormuz is probably the strongest card they have right now... 1 month ago:
Because it’s damning for both parties.

I think the contentious part is you acting sanctimonious about it. I know it rubbed me the wrong way, hence, my sarcasm.

Damn you’re so brave for condemning the unybomber.

The most frequent porn watchers don’t fantasize about meeting new people and having sex with them, they fantasize about having sex with someone that’s already nearby so they don’t have to go anywhere or do anything.
- Comment on Which government he might be talking about 🤔 2 months ago:
And wouldn’t you know it? The same states where child marriage is legal are also states where marital rape is treated as legally distinct from non-marital rape. As recently as 2003, twenty-six states retained marital immunity in one form or another.
In Iowa, for example, subsection (2) of article 709.4 Sexual abuse in third degree, excludes sexual acts committed by adults with children as young as 12, provided the parties are “cohabiting as husband and wife.”

Child marriage is legal in most states.

Even if you want to give some people the benefit of the doubt because of poor education and indoctrination, Mueller went to Princeton. He went to Vietnam knowing exactly what he was signing up for. He wasn’t tricked. He wasn’t desperate.
He just really wanted to kill indigenous resistance fighters, because that’s the #1 USAmerican passtime.
- Comment on The difference is real 2 months ago:
So he went to Vietnam to avenge his monster friend who was rightfully killed for being an invader?
We’d be better off as a society if every single person who volunteered for Vietnam never came back.
- Comment on The difference is real 2 months ago:
Mueller enlisted for Vietnam
Anyone who would volunteer for that war is a fucking monster.

Interestingly, Trump’s floor has always been 30% so this is actually pissing off his own die-hards.

So basically, you’ve made up your mind and there’s no evidence that could ever be presented to you to change it.

That’s exactly right. Being against tipping as a concept is fine, but the idea that we can end tipping culture by refusing to tip is fundamentally accelerationist. “Surely if we torture the workers enough they’ll be forced to demand higher wages!”
