Canada isn’t America. You can’t just cross the border and claim to be “undocumented”. There’s a shit ton of paperwork and it’s a lengthy process. If you just jump the border they will deport your ass.

!Just like the US should do with everyone who did the same.!<

You don’t have to be a misogynist to think Kalama was a terrible choice. The DNC could have had Biden drop out earlier, they could have had a primary and pick a different candidate, but no they have to go with a woman who slept her way into politics. Hillary was a better candidate than her and she was fucking bought and paid for by Wall Street.

1 can, sure.

2 cans, maybe.

But when I see some asshole load up a cart and start booking it towards the nearest fire door? Yeah, I’m stopping you.

22 billion is just a drop in the bucket to the Committee of 300 on their path to world domination.

No. I never had any issues with larger soda bottles. I would usually buy the 1 or 1.5 liter bottles because they were usually the best deal.

I did some sales work for one of the local soda distributors, and it was crazy how much better the 20oz bottles did in comparison to everything else.

It was the same with energy drinks. Most people would buy single cans for $3 when they could get a 4 pack for $10 or a 12 pack for $20.

We would usually just open the 12 packs at our accounts because the singles simply sold better.

20oz are more expensive per volume because they sell faster. There’s less of a demand for larger sizes typically go flat too fast for people unless they’re having a party or something, and even in that case they don’t have the convenience of being able to drink from the bottle.

I don’t keep my employees phone numbers as contacts on my phone and only use our landline to contact them.

I do this to create a barrier that prevents me from calling or texting my employees as the first step to solving a problem or getting information.

Additionally, it allows me to take actual time away from work and not be giving out instructions via text every few minutes when I’m home. Any issues that arise can (usually) be handled by my subordinates, and if they can’t, then they can contact be as they have my number.

I really don’t like bothering my employees when they’re off in any fashion. I plan out my staffing every week, four weeks out. I never really thought about it until one of my newer hires told me his last employer only made schedules for his staff a week at a time, and when the week ended, he didn’t know what time he would work the next day (or at all).

It blew my mind.

If they’re really short-staffed, they shouldn’t be wasting their time beating around the bush. Additionally, texting is too slow, I would just call them to get an immediate answer, so I can move on with planning how the rest of the day/shift will go.

“Hi {name}, would you be interested in coming in today to pick up some overtime?”

Simple yes/no, directly to the point, and frames the question in a (potentially) beneficial manner to the employ.

No he won’t.

He made this exact same campaign promise back in 2016 and he didn’t pull the US out of NATO when he became president.

The only thing he did was to call out the majority of member countries that weren’t paying their agreed about share, causing (primarily) the US to make up the difference.

Does this mean that he’s been secretly responsible for some/all school shootings, is addicted to doing them, and is asking for an intervention to help him stop and get into rehab?

“2 real friends”?

I’ve been at 0 real friends for so long that even the thought of socializing with anyone stresses me out.

If you’re a digital artist or someone looking to get into digital art, an IPad Air with an Apple Pencil is the cheapest entry-point that doesn’t require a computer and doesn’t absolutely suck.

Clip Studio uses a monthly subscription model for IpadOS and Android. I’d rather pay a one time fee than pay forever.

You can write off a private jet, which is terrible for carbon emissions, but you can’t write off an electric car?

I realized the only game I play online is FFXIV, which doesn’t require PS+. I almost never play the “free” games they add to the service, and spend a non-zero amount of time browsing said free games in an effort to find something to play rather than something in my backlog. So I just canceled.

My membership is up in December and I doubt I’ll even notice when it’s gone.

I agree for the most part. However, due to how Steam only lets its users review games in a binary manner of good or bad, and how prominent Overwatch 2 is (major publisher, highly advertised), I think this is a case where it is warranted.

It’s easy to assume that everyone has the same level of interest and enthusiasm in the game’s industry to follow all of the shitty practices, both in terms of development and just in general, that Blizzard has demonstrated over the years, but people like us are not the target audience for their ads and we aren’t the people they’re trying to get to play OW2.

Most people who fire up Steam don’t know who Blitzchung is. They haven’t heard about the whole breast milk thing, or about the bathroom camera thing. On top of that, they haven’t looked into anything about OW2, so they won’t know about how the game was only developed to move the previous entry’s player base into the new fleecing “free”-to-play model. They won’t know about the promised, yet cut content. They’ll just see the banner ad and click on it to check to see what the game is all about. Seeing an immediate overwhelmingly negative review is going to make them pause and then check out the comments to see what’s going on.

And also this is really the only way Gamers have to let their voices be heard against gaming companies like this. The statement of vote with your wallet doesn’t work with a free-to-play title like this. It also doesn’t matter, because whales are going to play it anyway and that’s where all of their money comes from. The overwhelmingly negative review at the very least could potentially prevent additional people from falling victim to their schemes.
