Omg just take them to court like everyone else

Can’t wait to start that expedition!

He can just say whatever he wants and (some) people fawn over it. Personally, I’d be more impressed if he were able to even turn the slightest profit

Untrue: pee is stored in the balls, not T

Wow, statistics sure do a great job of revealing numbers!

I’d like to know more about that wooden surface upon which the ketchup is resting. Is it a table, coffee table, chair, or toilet seat? Was the ring formed by a cup, a bowl, a glass, a mug, or a small bucket? What was held inside the object that created the ring? Where did you purchase this wooden panel? Where was it grown? How old was the tree prior to being harvested for lumber?

I know what you were trying to do and I respect it, but respectfully, there are shitposts, and then there are posts of pieces of shit
- Comment on Walmart actually teaches their employees how to get food stamps 1 week ago:
Thankfully, I am Canadian. For life! :D
- Comment on Walmart actually teaches their employees how to get food stamps 1 week ago:
Exactly! Individual consumer action is close to meaningless, but regulations are broad and sweeping
- Comment on Walmart actually teaches their employees how to get food stamps 1 week ago:
I’ve been boycotting WalMart for 25 years, but regrettably this has not put them out of business. Fortunately, it meant that not a single one of my dollars went into their greedy, overstuffed pockets.
- Comment on It's never been about helping people 1 week ago:
Well phrased, and exactly why I didn’t purge your comment based solely on a single report!
- Comment on It's never been about helping people 1 week ago:
FYI, this comment has been reported for “promoting violence”. Ordinarily I’d remove it for the “kill yourself” comment, but this seems more of a shitpost than an actual instruction or a promotion of violence. It’s a bit toxic but I’m going to leave it, and downvote & move on.
Anyone who disagrees, feel free to chime in with your take.

What’s the conspiracy, giant sunglasses?

This is the most correct answer of them all

And just make sure that you’ve got enough cycles to onboard the efficiency innovations recommended by Claude. I know you’re all excited to have a boost in productivity, but make sure to balance the infrastructure goals against the priority backlogs. Like Claude says, how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. So get out there and have a great sprint, we’ll meet at tomorrow morning’s stand-up for updates.

I can see the thumbnail but don’t get the joke.
Any chance of a summary for those of us who don’t have time for a 45min video?

Real: Actual monsters are everywhere at all times, but only come to your bathroom at night.
Heterosexual: Those monsters have genitalia, and if you’re charming enough, you can initiate various forms of intercourse with them.
Or just like, run around your house peeing everywhere while opening lights.

Management is a cult.
No, seriously. You have to participate in large scale acts of groupthink and demonstrate performative conformity just to be accepted; and once in the group you better not stray too far from the messaging of executives.

An international boycott is justified
- Comment on An American city has been without power for 2 weeks, unacceptable. 2 weeks ago:
Thank you!
- Comment on An American city has been without power for 2 weeks, unacceptable. 2 weeks ago:
Exactly my experience!
If it was languishing with a dozen upvotes and no comments, that’d be one thing; but it’s generating discussion and interaction, so I’m not going to be the spoil-sport on this one.
- Comment on An American city has been without power for 2 weeks, unacceptable. 2 weeks ago:
Awwwws, thanks! Best wishes for your dialysis, that’s rough. Hope things work out as well as possible
- Comment on An American city has been without power for 2 weeks, unacceptable. 2 weeks ago:
I know what you mean, and your logic is 100% sound.
By the time I saw this it was 8hrs old with +250 upvotes though, so I didn’t want to purge it against the will of the people.
- Comment on An American city has been without power for 2 weeks, unacceptable. 2 weeks ago:
I’ll keep that in mind, thanks! Fortunately this is Lemmy, so I only have one or two reports each day to deal with (for now). And most users actually seem pretty mature and reasonable!
I have a hope that the sort of people to be on Lemmy at all aren’t the sort to be too toxic or unreasonable; and mostly that’s been wonderfully true in my (limited) experience!
- Comment on An American city has been without power for 2 weeks, unacceptable. 2 weeks ago:
LOL that’s valid
I thought about editing that since unconstructive replies are less valid, but figured whatevs. I’d rather hear all feedback than discourage poor feedback. :p
- Comment on An American city has been without power for 2 weeks, unacceptable. 2 weeks ago:
Oh, its Sanitation again, I didn’t notice that.
I understand and appreciate your point. But as long as they’re abiding by the rules of the sub, I’m going to let the community upvotes & downvotes be greater determinants of the worthiness of their posts. And as long as they’re not being a bad actor, I won’t ban this or any other user.
I’m just glad to see posts that are mostly-applicable to the topic rather than those spammy fake jobs or that one guy obsessed with the end of the world.

FYI, this post has been reported as “off topic”, along with the declaration that posts of this nature make this board indistinguishable from Lemmy Politics.
As the sole Mod, I’m going to allow it because this sort of issue is a direct consequence of our civilization’s corporate-centric approach to governing, and highlights the urgent need for Work Reform; the implementation of a system that is not 100% profit-driven or based around profit outcomes. Indeed; Work Reform is a political concept at its core since the entrenched powers never reform from within, but due to outside pressure.
Please let me know if you agree or disagree with this approach. All opinions are valid.
