Sensible club owners know never to point your club at something you don’t intend to wumf

I mean… it would have to be?

Is there even that much money in the global economy?

Yeah, I’m sure a soldiers don’t normally face reprisal for refusing to follow orders. /s

Maybe… don’t issue orders that may be war crimes?

The mime rifle is silent, but deadly

You laughed in my face and called my viewpoint absurd while defending the status quo

If you think the status quo is acceptable then I’m not going to be the person to convince you otherwise

If you think 35% of people not being able to afford a home in a world of plenty is ok, then I think you have more to learn about than statistics

Many years ago, I worked at a Walmart.
One of the only events that staff would look forward to was an employee profit-sharing program.
It was essentially an annual bonus, and it was typically worth about half a week’s pay. Most places that would be an insulting low bonus, but when you work minimum wage and don’t get benefits, anything extra is appreciated.

While I was working there, the store went through some major renovations to become a Super Centre. If you’re not familiar, that means they added a bunch of refrigerators and such so they could sell fresh groceries instead of just pantry items.
It was a huge pain to deal with during the renovations, they were super disruptive to operations, but the store never closed. We just had to work around the contractors, and the customers were more ornery than usual.

That same year they opened another store across town. Ours is a fairly small town, at the time I wouldn’t have thought that our town would support two Walmarts. But since our store was going through major renovations, the other location cannibalized a lot of our traffic.

We didn’t get our bonus that year because we weren’t profitable enough. We didn’t decide to do renovations. We didn’t decide to open a new store. We all had to work harder to accommodate the grander corporate strategy of strangling the life out of our town’s economy.

This was at least ten years ago. Income inequality has only gotten worse since then. Why the fuck would I do more than the minimal effort if they’re going to squeeze me for the minimal wage?

‘Most’ isn’t good enough
51% is ‘most’
If you scored 51% on a test, you would fail

Y’know, I think the only silver lining to deepfakes is that if my nudes get leaked I could just brush it off and say they’re fake.

Of course, that’s easy to say until you’re slapped in the face with your own bits

The boss asked us to take the dog out, where did we go wrong?

The man with the gun shoots the gun.

The man without a gun finds a gun.

“Good idea, what’s writing?”

“I don’t know”

“Me neither”

Looks like Li’l Bill is Texas Toast

Fuck yeah Timmy, get me some of that green shit and you can keep the change
