  Skin seems a little undervalued.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The truth about Canada⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, if you give people a long weekend they’re gonna celebrate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The truth about Canada⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s not fair. It was only last weekend we had a national holiday to celebrate how we treated the natives.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California Gov. Gavin Newsom signs law to raise minimum wage for fast food workers to $20 per hour⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This is for all the farm workers, all the cotton-pickers

  But… she realizes it isn’t, right? It’s only for fast food workers. Farm workers specifically don’t get this increased minimum wage.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Walmart cuts starting hourly pay for some workers⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Raising… pay?

  No. There’s no way those two words can go together in that order. Get out of here with your crazy talk.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We are all made of carbon⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Speaking as one of “them”, yes. Yes you are.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Seriouslt guys don't do it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pretty sure I recognize this spot - just west of cache creek on hwy 99 - and if it is where I think it is that whole hillside burned last summer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Sponsored recommendations": I pay for Spotify Premium, and yet somehow I'm still the product?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  yeah, it’s not spotify’s fault that splitting $10/month between all the music you listen to doesn’t pay the artists very much.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"AI going to take our jobs"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know about bard, but google doesn’t know any better either. ibb.co/7YHpSsq

  Shout out to Moninaa on Reddit, which is probably the source of this “fact”, for making the world a little stranger.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨it's impressive how bad it is⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  people stopped liking discord when they got to use slack or teams and see what a professional chat product looks like.

  not that people really love slack or teams either, but they are miles ahead of discord in terms of speed and general usability.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This is the opposite of transparent. When I order food, I’m agreeing the pay the listed price for the item I ordered. Adding 18% on top of that when it comes time to pay is hiding that fee.

  If they want to charge more, they should raise their prices

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨😲😲⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I bet they get really mad if you call them business weebs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Its beautiful this time of year⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s any of them

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨More Perfect Union went to a trump rally. Their criticisms sound very close to that of socialists⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  These “the far right just wants normal relatable things” seem to be a relatively popular genre. We can all agree that freedom and safety and health and happiness are good things to have.

  But we’ve all seen what the trumpers do when you start trying to give those things to poor people, or immigrants, or trans people. The question we need to be asking isn’t “do you like nice things?”, the question is “who do you think is deserving of nice things”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Part of a balanced diet⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t stand them on pizza either, and I always thought that meant I didn’t like olives

  Turns out I just don’t like the cheap black olives they put on pizza. Good olives are good, but lots of olives aren’t and bad olives just make the whole dish they’re in taste like bad olives.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sweet tea⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  the correct response to somebody trying to order sweet tea in the north is and always has been this quote from 30 rock:

  “I’m gonna come back in 5 minutes, if you try to order off menu again I will slap those glasses off your face.”
