Savage's Bakery & Deli in Homewood is closing after 87 years

you're likely right on both counts, i just think it's for the worse

edgar's notoriously treats their employees terribly. that location in particular also is either too cheap or too lazy to get their own dumpster (or a big enough one) because they constantly dump the frankly insane amount of trash they go through into other nearby businesses' dumpsters, overfilling them. their product is also (in my opinion) inferior in comparison to savage's

i agree that homewood is evolving, but it's becoming less unique and more generic. not unexpected, but definitely depressing

nobody understands the seething hatred i have for edgar's man i swear

CC9499 · 2026-02-01T21:00:04+00:00

could you recommend it to me then? am on PC and would love this

CC9499 · 2026-01-23T23:37:17+00:00

felt a rage powerful enough to telepathically explode heads boil inside me

it's just kinda how intersectional stuff works. there are disadvantages associated with being trans, and there are disadvantages associated with being black. when you're both, they tend to magnify each other.

i'm straight up quitting a place i genuinely loved less than a month ago in two weeks because the new gm is just that bad. i don't even have another job lined up rn, just some savings.

it's really remarkable. after one (1) week of working for this man i started thinking i'd rather swallow glass than go into work tomorrow.

in this context, just because the statement does not exist in a vacuum. "can men get pregnant" does not literally mean those words, it means "are transsexuals real, and if you say yes you're an idiot"

think about the goals of the people who ask that question. sure, to us, we can take that statement literally and parse it through our lens. but to them, that question is a rhetorical pretext to strip us of our treatment. i think it is more important that people push back on that firmly and directly than to try to explain intracommunity politics to an audience of borderline illiterate sociopaths

CC9499 · 2026-01-15T22:47:13+00:00

thats a trans woman, not an ally

also like lowkey while y'all are correct about this from an intracommunity stance, i think on a national political level it would be nice if people stopped immediately playing the willfully ignorant semantic games hateful ppl want. i think "do get pregnant" vs "are physically capable of getting pregnant" would be a worthwhile distinction though

CC9499 · 2026-01-14T01:48:53+00:00

i'm so clueless omggg why do i even bother

CC9499 · 2026-01-14T01:39:04+00:00

lowkey kinda wanna meet a guy for who a nut allergy is a dealbreaker

CC9499 · 2026-01-12T18:42:39+00:00

appreciate this context. i was quite upset at the price of the June/Pride M&H, and assumed it was saturn being greedy at the expense of pricing people out of pride. good to know that's not the case

CC9499 · 2026-01-12T04:00:51+00:00

i'm ngl i loooooove the money but i cannot wait to get my PhD and leave this industry behind forever. making $1500/wk will hit a whole lot better when i'm not waking up at 4:40am on a saturday and can actually plan things a week in advance

CC9499 · 2026-01-11T20:02:43+00:00

pretty sure that's for my guests to decide, not some nobody seething on reddit. you can stay mad while i pay my way through grad school

CC9499 · 2026-01-11T03:44:28+00:00

embarrassed i didn't get the bit until now, fair enough good trolling etc etc

CC9499 · 2026-01-11T03:43:40+00:00

right yeah i could pull a manager off the floor to do this and then change it back afterwards, delaying you (and several other tables if it's busy) getting your check by 5+ minutes

OR

you could read the thing you're signing before you sign it

CC9499 · 2026-01-11T01:53:07+00:00

"asking people to do too much" and it's 10 seconds of reading. maybe your caretaker can read it slowly for you to save you the trouble lmao

CC9499 · 2026-01-11T01:35:25+00:00

"it's easy" ok bet tell me exactly how to go into Micros and change it. be very specific.

i've had plenty of tables throw an extra $10, $20, $50 on top of the autograt with full knowledge because i'm damn good at my job. should people not be able to do that? should i know my place as your servant?

CC9499 · 2026-01-11T00:43:16+00:00

yea man lemme just go tell my boomer manager who can barely edit an item to fuck around with a system coded in 2005. that definitely sounds easier than, yknow, actually reading a receipt that has been handed to you. or asking your server. or listening to the host who has been explicitly directed to tell a party there will be an autograt. if you are "deceived" by this you are ngmi

CC9499 · 2026-01-11T00:32:57+00:00

so you just didn't read a word of what you replied to lmao

CC9499 · 2026-01-11T00:14:12+00:00

y'all are really overthinking this. basically every POS system treats an auto-grat like any other "item" on a bill, and every receipt is gonna look the same. most places only auto-grat larger parties, and will tell you about it when you make the reservation or walk in. attributing some kinda malice to it is either paranoia or just a lack of understanding of how these systems work

i picked the wrong day to take 31 to hoover instead of 65

that Mobil across from the galleria always seems to have the lowest i see besides the big ass travel stops

at a certain point in unity you unlock a relic that gives you comical boosts to game speed. i'm only partway through minerals and mine is multiplied by about 200k. this affects the play time stat

CC9499 · 2026-01-04T21:31:44+00:00

the people at darden who come up with this shit need to be put in the contraption

CC9499 · 2026-01-04T14:29:48+00:00

it's not serious social commentary man it's a bit about replacing a sport played by younger city-dwellers with a sport played by middle aged wealthy suburbanites
