- Comment on Panera founder says employees today aren't motivated by the idea of making money for shareholders: 'Nobody cares' 6 months ago:
It’s clickbait
- Comment on Honest question: what was Hamas' long-game with respect to kidnapping Israelis? Did they think Israel would just negotiate rather than retaliate? 8 months ago:
Israel could also stop the annexation of Palestinian land and the murders of Palestinian civilians, but doesn’t
The only reason Israel hasn’t wiped out Gaza and the West Bank and taken those areas as part of Israel is that they believe that a full-on intense genocide would be too much for the world to let go. Whether or not that fear is true is something we may find out now in Gaza
- Comment on Women in Iceland including the prime minister go on strike for equal pay and an end to violence 8 months ago:
That’s a pretty self-centred take
Unionization leads to better working conditions and pay outside of their own membership in a “rising tides lift all boats” kind of way
- Comment on Women in Iceland including the prime minister go on strike for equal pay and an end to violence 8 months ago:
Since then there have been several partial-day strikes, most recently in 2018, with women walking off the job in the early afternoon, symbolizing the time of day when women, on average, stop earning compared to men.
That’s pretty clever
- Comment on Car wash: touchless or soft touch? 8 months ago:
Right on. I’ve heard these can be a nightmare to maintain - I hope yours stays trouble-free
- Comment on Car wash: touchless or soft touch? 8 months ago:
Leased or owned/financed?
- Comment on It’s A Deal! WGA & AMPTP Reach Tentative Agreement To End Writers Strike 8 months ago:
Interesting. We’re seeing something similar with the UAW as Ford seems more willing to negotiate
The automakers aren’t a single block, so separate contracts need to be signed to end the strike, but any manufacturer still being targeted would be at a major disadvantage to any others that have ended their strikes
- Comment on Why do sports commentators talk soft bullshit? 8 months ago:
I think the fans do like actual in-depth analysis, it’s just no always possible real-time.
Jomboy’s breakdowns are fantastic, but he’s not able to do that during a live broadcast.
The NFL pioneered game analysis with John Madden and the telestrator, and that is used in all sports broadcasts now. For that, you need the camera work to see and record the action, the expertise to realize there is something to analyse, and the ability to analyse it, and you need the time to show the analysis in a break in play or during an intermission
- Comment on Old Dads | A Netflix Film From Director Bill Burr | Official Trailer 9 months ago:
That would be on-brand(ish) for Burr
He showed a trailer for the movie at his show last year. A subset of his fans were overly energised by these “tough dad” jokes
The same sunset of fans were a bit perplexed when Burr to some shots at the idiots with massive American flags on the back of their pickup trucks
I wonder how much cognitive dissonance Burr’s fans suffer when the find out his wife is black
- Comment on Man attacked by two dogs near school in Stonnall dies 9 months ago:
Dogs also feed off of the emotions of their owners. If the owner is all tense or aggressive, the dog will be on alert and prone to attack other dogs and people
- Comment on Giant Spider Has Been Australian Family's Guest For 1 Year 9 months ago:
Add me to you list of people ok with mocking leaders with non-racist comparisons to cartoon characters
I’m assuming the video just loops as the spider comes into view because it dispatched of the entire family seconds later
- Comment on Amazon CEO Tells Workers: Return to Office or 'It’s Probably Not Going to Work Out for You' 9 months ago:
we are going back to the office at least three days a week, and it’s not right for all of our teammates to be in three days a week and for people to refuse to do so.
Not very compelling
