Same in my country. It only happens in countries with vast amounts of poverty.

Maaaate. You’re telling people they are naive, but you are the perfect example of what that word means.

So I, someone who also doesn’t make much money, should use the little money I have extra to pay for others, while these stores make billions profit per year? You know how much people are poor? You’re doing exactly what mega corporations do: blame the consumer. I do help out some friends of mine who are poor AF. But the issue is mega corps creating vast amounts of poverty out of greed.

It was 2020, covid was in full force, all prices went up. Ahold said they were forced to do so, due to extra shipping fees etc and shortages due to covid. Many people were struggling financially. Their personnel also couldn’t get raises while they were more exposed to get covid, had to work more due to colleagues being ill. The store chain said the profits on products was minimal, that they were struggling not to sell products at a loss. That they had no choice but to raise prices, while also bleeding themselves.
Turns out that year they had more yearly profits than ever before. Check this chart.
I’m unable to steal. I’m too honest for that, my autistic brain just can’t. But I so much believe companies like Ahold deserve to be stolen from. Fuck them.

Those cars are shit, the driver probably thought when his car was flipping “shit shit shit SHIIIIIT”, everything is turned to shit

I don’t report shoplifting people either because they desperately need it while the CEO of the franchise earns millions. When shoplifting is a common thing forcing the store to put products behind locks, society has failed as too many of the population are struggling financially.

There’s also loempia. And you can get vega vlammetjes but the appie doesn’t sell them all the time. Vega bitterballen are also pretty good, especially the old Amsterdam bitterballen. Bamischijf and nassieachijf are also vega but I don’t like them that much.

An old colleague of mine is a life guard now. He’s far right. He calls me Stalin for being left (which I don’t like because I’m an anarchist) and I call him Adolf which he finds funny. What I find funny is that his arguments for being right actually are pretty left and socialist, but he doesn’t understand that.
So I do not trust his judgement.

Chicken bones are dangerous (can be deadly) for animals as they splinter. If my cats steal some cheese I’ll let them have it (if it’s not too big as they are lactose intolerant). But now it’s hard to have a cheese platter. They just keep trying until there’s a weak moment in our surveillance. They are cheese ninjas.

If we are measuring by that standard, we should all wear the same uniforms. Because if poor people can’t afford expensive clothes, it also shouldn’t be allowed for rich people to wear them, right? Maybe stairs should be forbidden, because if people in wheelchairs can’t use stairs, no one should.
There are things I prefer not to see. Just as everyone has. But who am I to push my preferences onto others, and who are others to push their preferences onto me. People have their right to be who they are. If you don’t like it, you can go somewhere else. But this means you also have the right to be who you are.
If we start with restricting these things, then where does it stop? If people aren’t allowed to wear tights because some people don’t like to look at it, then what about two men kissing in public? Some don’t like it, so maybe we should ban that too, or maybe ban kissing in public all for everyone?
Maybe turn it around. If it’s cool for some, maybe it should be cool for everyone. If you have a problem with how someone looks (or acts, believes, etc), you are in your right to look and go somewhere else. If someone has a problem with how you look, you still have your right to be who you are.
Restricting people to wear “appropriate” clothing according to certain standards happens in several places on this world. Like many Islamic countries where women need to be partially or completely covered. Or North Korea where people have to wear certain clothes and have certain haircuts.

Hey if you dress like that, don’t mind me looking. You clearly like to show off and it works, it attracted my eyes. But I won’t stare or bother you.
It’s partly because I want to respect you and your boundaries, and how you look is not an invitation to bother you, but also because I’m looking for women (I actually am not, I have found someone already) who has more to offer than just good looks and doesn’t need to compensate shortcomings by showing off like that.
But don’t mind me looking at beautiful women showing off their body. Just not in a creepy or bothering way. But if you drive a sports car, especially when you chose the bright yellow option, it’s for a reason: Attentions and compensation and I’m not interested. There are also very comfortable (if not more comfortable) sports clothes that do not show off everything.

AI slop but I believe this is the one thing AI can get away with, at least in my books. But fuck AI.

They have a big house and 2 cars, why TF would they care about reliable trains. All the stock they own is in BMW and Mercedes.
- Comment on I'll take it to all 2 place it goes! 1 week ago:
I was that European transit user years ago. I did buy a BMW because I hated the train system, but crashed it and then bought a Saab. I sold it 3 years ago and bought an electric bike. Only take the train like twice a year or so. When I go to Berlin for a weekend trip or something. But then I’m using DB which is way worse than the trains in my country, so I won’t use trains for a while after that.

It’s worth €2000, most of it is never used. I’ll list it for €1000, only pickup possible due to vast size and weight. Only serious offers please. (I’ll take any offer over €750)
Average offer: €50 including shipping.
Fuck it, I’ll just store it with the collection of other old hobby stuff.

I’m guessing you’re a US American? Canada and Greenland do not exist right? No one lives there right? I mean, you’ve seen 3 places in Alaska, that’s enough to know them all isn’t it? Even the ones living 4000km away (that’s 22471910.112360 bananas in “freedom” units)
Its such an ignorant and dumb American thing to assume everyone is the same and the world outside the US doesn’t exist.
Clearly you have no clue to what the Canadian government, and the Danish government, have done to natives and why it’s such a sensitive word to many.
Why do you desperately want to support systematic racism?
FFS, Idiocracy was way too optimistic.

Ah yes. The “I know a black guy who isn’t offended by a white guy saying the N word so it’s ok to say it” argument.
They are not all the same. I know for a fact that there are indeed large groups who are offended by it. Just because you know a group / groups who are not offended, doesn’t mean all the others spread out all over half a continent feel the same way about it.

I had the same, but now I have custom ones and they do not fit in the tubes. I love the filter, but I still don’t know if I like these expensive custom ones better than 20 euro standard ones. They slide out easily, especially when I’m dancing in a hot place. The 20 euro cheap ones always stay in due to the rubber rings on them. It was definitely not worth the 220 euros to have custom ones made.
