I wonder how long until the woman I met who is actively in the process of converting to Judaism gets labeled a rabid antisemite for her radical stand of “loudly proclaiming that she and many other Jews oppose the genocide against Palestine”.

Just remember to steal some stationary as well.

Ok but that’s infrastructure and we don’t pay for that (for real though we need to upgrade our outdated catenaries)

Ok I know when people say gay like that they mean gay male, but D.E.B.S. is one of the greatest queer movies ever made and is a romcom between two women. But it like many other classic queer movies wasn’t a major studio or anything

Python isn’t named after an animal it’s named after a comedy troupe, which is a group of animals

Huh, I definitely would’ve guessed it was New York City. I suppose I was mistaken about the ethnoreligious diversity of my neighboring country

How the hell did Mexico get a Jewish president before the USA? We need to step up our game.

But also good on her and on Mexico. She sounds exactly like the sort of person I’d want running my country.

For some. Some of us would take at least a week to get there. Surely there must be a bridge on the east coast that works!

Probably a union hall. Maybe try the Wobblies. Definitely join me in propagandizing. But yeah organize in some way, you can probably find the hand of syndicalists somewhere in your local leftism scene, we’re notorious for being well organized as we’re where anarchism meets “ok but like we need a plan and some clear goals”.

I am Lemmy’s token syndicalist lol. I love democracy so much I think we should have it at work too.

Microsoft getting back to the business strategy that made them successful

There are two ways to solve for this: private ownership by a dedicated individual, and worker cooperative ownership with a strong culture.

From what I hear the best way to make dmt sound not awesome is to describe the taste

Not only can alcohol be used as a date rape drug, it’s the most common one. It’s safer for the assailant to give you a stronger drink than you think you’re getting than to give you something like roofies. Additionally bartenders will gladly do it as it’s not uncommon for someone to want a double.

Yep that certainly is exactly the bullshit I was taught in the Midwest.

I wish schools were able to use the categories of “do your research” “probably a bad idea” and “definitely a bad idea”. There are drugs kids need to be warned about and by being honest about marijuana and lsd you build credibility when you tell them to never try opiates and that poppers may not ruin your life, but like there’s never a situation where they’re a good idea.

We also need to be honest about how we got into our opioid epidemic and how most heroin addicts got hooked after getting prescribed.

Kids are stupid but they aren’t stupid how us adults think they are. When we lie to them they remember to discount everything we say, even to not smoke cigarettes.

Just because I still like the postal service doesn’t make me old. Ok the fact that I could’ve been referring to the band or the government agency and still been accurate might mean I’m old

Well yeah, and neither does hooters, but I’d say hooters waitstaff are known and assumed to be catering to sexual tastes in a way that brings their work closer to a stripper than to your waitress at Waffle House. You go to hooters because of the attractive waitstaff, you go to Waffle House for the food.

Yeah I think it’s hooters but for incels instead of douchebags. And as a massive lesbo I can theoretically get the appeal but also the appeal is “I want to hire a sex worker, but don’t want to think of myself as having hired a sex worker in this context”.

And honestly from what I do know about japan’s sex work scene I don’t believe that you can have a reasonable certainty that any sex worker you hired there is consenting. Especially if the worker isn’t originally from Japan. The yakuza absolutely kidnaps poor girls from Southeast Asia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. But that’s where we get into the discussion other people in the thread got into.

You’d be kicked out of a dungeon for expecting that sort of shit around here. Wtf?

I do the whole dom/sub thing pretty intensely, but not with waitstaff. That’s just creepy. This is their work.
