Do you frequently just leave YouTube running?

Unless you have it set to never lock its not possible. All phones lock automatically after 30-60 seconds by default.

Yep. I live in a suburb outside a major city. To get to the “train station” without a car, I’d need to walk over a mile to the closest bus stop, take that bus up the road to a transfer, take that bus to the light rail station, then take that light rail to the train station. 1 1/2 hours vs 45 minutes driving. And if I’m already driving 45 minutes anyway, I’d rather just stay in my car and go straight to my destination.

Another ignored factor is safety. depending on the city (like mine), public transportation is full of mentally ill and people on drugs. I’ve seen more fights and freaky shit on public transportation than I have the rest of my life combined. I had to physically intervene a dude harassing my client with autism once and shove him out the door. That was the last time I took public transportation because it’s not worth my safety. Thanks drug decriminalization.

In America the train costs as much as a plane ticket. Driving is cheaper. We also have very little in the way if trains. Most of our long distance travel is by bus. Tiny, dirty, cramped busses where if someone takes a shit in the toilet everyone smells it for hours. I would rather drive.

That has to be the real reason they’ve canceled Grand Tour

Jokes aside, I generally hate this mentality. “Why were you looking at x”.

Cause it’s different from the usual. Brains are wired to spot differences and things that are out of the ordinary. Erections stick out (heh). Same as putting ‘Juicy’ on butts of pants. Bannana hammocks on dudes at tge beach. People with unique body shapes like super muscle torsos or big asses.

Or maybe I’m just horny…

It will be full of microtransactions and pay to win and be full of boring filler and collectibles and that will ruin it like that last one they did with the flight suits.

Bad bot linking to pay walls and not posting the article text.

It’s incredibly important to do so because conservative and right-wing media is all free. They don’t paywall anything. This is part of the disinformation brain-drain. The quality, real stuff is locked away but the bullshit is out for display.

Start displaying the real stuff.

And go where? Walmart? Kroger? There’s literally nowhere better for most of us.

Jesus christ I hope you get some help for your actual mental illness, bro. This lovel of dissonance and lashing out is not healthy or normal.

I’m more cracking up at his whole “if you use amazon but also complain about it you’re a fucking dumbass idiot fuckwad moron blah blah rtard”

Ignoring that there literally is no ethical consumption under capitalism anymore. My choices for shopping are amazon or Walmart because nowhere else is affordable. You can’t vote with your wallet anymore. That’s WHY strikes and supporting workers are so important, and that’s why this dumbass is actually a fucking asshole piece of shit.

Good, get the fuck out of here, shill.

It’s cause you’re a shill

Stating your “fact” as if it’s fact for everyone. That’s why you’re being called out, bro. Your asserting your individual singular experience as universal truth.

Shill

Lol shilling for the biggest company in the world for $24 an hour? Calling people bitches for calling out your bullshit? Fucking shameless lack of dignity. I can’t imagine someone being this much of a dumbass, thinking your anecdotal evidence means anything when we have so much verifiable, proven scumfuckery from amazon. Piss bottles on shelves? Warehouse workers being locked in during storms?

I’ve wondered this before: most animals have a sense of smell magnitudes stronger Than humans. But I’ve also seen situations where smells are so bad the humans are reaching but the animals don’t care.

Do animals not have the same “gross” reactionary instinct?

I think it often comes down to learning styles. It really sucks because there is no one size fits all. I think most “trainings” would actually be better served as a long email that I can also reference later as needed, but I also struggle to focus in meeting and such. Other people are better at focusing in the moment and would never read a long email in the first place.

Exactly. It was on games pass and it was still the most profitable release Bethesda has ever had. Why put in real effort when you don’t have to?

I’ve seen a few other stories of towns voting goats and ducks and stuff to positions; what actually happens logistically? Is the town just de facto run by the city council?
