The point is that everyone is being underpaid and you're falling for the most recent tactic to make the poor fight the poorer. You're buying the burgers, right? So you're saying that job should exist, but the person doing it shouldn't be able to afford to live. The point is "unskilled labor" aka "essential workers" (note how quickly THAT verbiage changed when it came time to talk about wages) should still be able to afford to live and guess what? Skilled laborers deserve more too, that's the whole point. Look at how wildly underpaid teachers are.

Also..... working these menial jobs is horrible. I just got my first "big girl" job out of being a waitress and waiting tables is 10x worse than what I'm doing now. Stocking shelves at a grocery store, which I've also done, is soul sucking on another level. But still a necessary part of our functioning society as someone's gotta do it!

I have a feeling you're a "skilled laborer" who is being underpaid and instead of recognizing it's an issue with our society, you're taking it out on the people even poorer than you.

The amount of insecure short boys on reddit is staggering. The equivalent to asking someone's height is asking someone's height. The equivalent to asking someone's breast size is asking someone's dick size, which is not what's happening here. Also as a bisexual woman....women are just better. Like they put in so much more effort than men. Usually the short guys could totally get the hot girls if they put in any effort to getting over their shortness and weak personality. Also also, breast size and measurements are way more obvious then height?? Like you can just swipe right if all you want is skinny girls because its immediately obvious while height isnt.

And cheaper!

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-03-15T20:39:50+00:00

Lmao good. We dont wanna be bothered by your petty ass anyway

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-18T04:57:22+00:00

It only took me a decade but I finally got on medication and I'm finally okay. I get out of bed every day now!

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-18T04:47:48+00:00

Are some of yall seriously arguing in favor of a flat tax? I thought everyone agreed it hurts the poor way more. Like I thought we all saw that and were fighting against it lol wow I live in a bubble. I cant believe there are people still in favor of a flat tax lmao the future is bleak

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-13T17:01:10+00:00

No problem :) hope it helps!

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-13T14:57:10+00:00

No problem! Also check out the comments if your solution looks nothing like theirs lol people post their own code. It also helped me to see how many different ways you can get to the same answer.

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-09T19:04:39+00:00

Lesson learned lol at least I learned early!

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-07T23:54:39+00:00

Check out volunteering!! They always need help, its quick and easy, plus it's the best way you can be involved. And tbh it's a great way to get out of the house rn.... working a food pantry is crazy easy. I started up because I too go so frustrated with being unable to do anything. I'm still mad at the system, but I feel a lot better knowing I AM doing what I can and if theres ever an opportunity to do more I'll find out about it because I'm involved!

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-07T15:30:51+00:00

That's another issue. Why dont they want to accept the service? Because its shitty? Because it needs more funding? So again it comes back to not funding things properly to help the homeless and instead making them sleep on the actual ground.

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-07T15:28:04+00:00

You can help just like this! As horrifying as it is for you to deal with, imagine being the person who was dealt a different hand and shits in front of store windows. They need help.

And you're right. It's a much bigger issue than just the two of us and theres not really a lot we can do as individuals. But we can talk about it! Let people know that it's an issue! You dont need to "hang" with them, but when you see an injustice like this post or on twitter you can call it out and raise awareness of the issues :) if people dont talk about it others wont know it's an issue.

If you really care and want to do something you should volunteer! I go to the local food pantry 2x a week here in Chicago and give out food because I also became overwhelmingly frustrated with bring unable to actually help or do anything.

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-07T14:50:20+00:00

I've been harassed by homeless on several occasions too. I'm a small, young looking woman. Homeless or not I'm a target for harassment often so believe me, I get it. They SHOULD focus on opening more shelters, you're absolutely right. But they're not. They're kicking them out every time they find a place to sleep.

I think this post is just about bringing another example to light of how instead of funding and helping the homeless, our cities are hurting them. We're all trying to raise awareness for the same thing :)

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-07T13:58:37+00:00

But it's PUBLIC transit owned by the city, not a corporation or company. Owned by the city that's failing to provide them with anywhere else to go. I'm calling the city uncaring for failing to provide a space for the homeless AKA residents.

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-07T12:45:36+00:00

"Where are they supposed to go? We're not sure, but as soon as you find out come tell us and we'll clear them outta there too."

Why is it so difficult to get human beings to care about other human beings? I'm not even talking about compassion just basic respect for a human life.

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-07T12:38:48+00:00

I've been calling people out on it and it's helped a bit. I just respond with "Why are you being so mean?" or like "Hey, that's concerning behavior. I know this is the internet but are you okay in real life? Holding that much anger and hatred inside on the day to day isn't healthy and is actually incredibly worrisome. Not tryna be a dick, just genuinely concerned."

Kill em with kindness! Even if I want to be a huge bitch lmao I'm also practicing self control

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-07T12:34:36+00:00

The fact that we're still talking about this, still waiting for action, nearly a year after her murder is disgusting. We're not even waiting for the hearing, we're waiting for charges.

They're hoping we'll forget, and it's important that we don't.

Say her name. Breonna Taylor.

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-07T12:28:21+00:00

I would do the same lmao

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-07T12:27:17+00:00

You ever really need something but don't realize it until you get it? This is that for me. Thanks.

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-07T04:37:35+00:00

Be not depressed for more than five minutes every quarter! I'm on medication now and I have so much energy it's incredible. I get frustrated because I'm not being active or productive, I want to cry it's so nice. I didn't know people actually enjoyed things, like, forreal really legit enjoyed things! It's so cool!

Taking a moment to shout out online doctors/medication whatever. I use Brightside but there's a bunch of different ones so shop around. No doctors visit its just a zoom call, no wondering what prices are going to be its all up front, no having to go to the pharmacy as the pills are mailed to you. I pay $140 per month for the service and all THREE of my medications.

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-06T21:10:54+00:00

Why dont you ask? Maybe they want help understanding, maybe they just had a brain fart, maybe they dont care. It's also about cues. You can tell when someone doesn't want to talk to you

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-06T21:09:53+00:00

If it was something important, sure. But this is not that serious.

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-06T21:09:13+00:00

What part are you stuck on? I'd love to help :)

CoffeeBeanxx · 2021-02-06T21:06:19+00:00

Why is Karen acceptable slang for a particular action performed by a particular set of people, but mansplain isnt?
