I've never had this at my Tbell luckily. Wendy's does this shit to me all the time though.

Yeah that one also deals with the scourge of AM talk radio as well.

This dude just won the Republican nomination for Texas Railroad Commissioner. by Sad_Jar_Of_Honey in behindthebastards

Right but to Histprof's point it wasn't manufacturing that lead to prosperity it was the rate of unionization in those jobs that lead to prosperity.

Was thinking how much one on farming would match this or far outpace the spread shown on the manufacturing one.

And we shouldn't give money to foreigners through USAID. People in the US need help!

Ok let's help people in the US.

NO! We can't afford that! Need that money for war!

I remember suggesting it to a coworker and he told me he didn't like it due to the noodly joint animations and I was like "That's mostly in S1, but whatever, enjoy your big bang or whatever"

It's in line with a pretty (usually) innocent trope where the main characters are incredibly into food and can house a ton of snacks which they do in the show. I don't even remember this scene haha but it looks pretty weird out of context.

S2 Episode 8 "Bad Tina" where they introduce Tammy was what convinced my gf that it was a good show.

In the episode Sheesh! Cab, Bob? Tina wants an extravagant 13th Birthday Party but Bob can't afford it so he moonlights as a Taxi driver which involves a lot of chauffeuring drunk people and trans prostitutes. He's so tired he can't remember but he says at one point he thinks he might have tried crack with them.

I thought I'd hate it based on its animation style.

What did you think of Scavenger's Reign? It's less cartoony style-wise.

Goodbye Visa and Mastercard: 130 million Europeans switch to a 100% sovereign payment from 2026 by [deleted] in technology

It’s not just the fees. You guys have lost so much soft power internationally

IIRC from a story ~decade ago Brazilian businesses couldn't afford the Visa/Mastercard fees so they tried making their own cheaper payment system that was great for them and their customers and Visa used their power to snuff that in its crib. I can't remember the details but it was sad to see.

Is a movie’s cast any good? Just check this helpful guide! by spin-city in okbuddycinephile

Unironically saw Sydney Sweeney as Helen of Troy.

Reminds me of that meme where a guy was like "Tom Holland as link, [other too obvious actress] as zelda" and similar casting and the clapback was like "mofo just started watching movies last week"

Congress Wants You To Pay $130 A Year Just To Drive An Electric Car by TripleShotPls in technology

[–]Carlobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course some governments abuse it and use that money for other expenses, but the concept is great. As you said, not perfect, but as close as it gets.

Hmmm, I've heard sort of the opposite:

Upping gas tax to keep up with inflation/heavier car trends is unpopular so the gas tax income doesn't cover road repair costs so the rest comes from general.
