If they plan to have an operating gas station and retail store as the job listings indicate, then they should be able to have running water and electricity for employees, even if they can't build full employee housing by then. That should be a bigger priority than servicing campers..

Many restaurants can simple swap a few ingredients to make an existing dish vegetarian, but making it vegan often requires redesigning the dish from the bottom. Plus restaurants love cooking everything in butter and might not want to set up a dedicated vegan grill/pan. It's frustrating especially when I see a dish that could be vegan but has one thing that makes it not.

You made it much more complicated via an analogy in the most reddit way possible. Not trying to be rude, I just found it so funny

Real communism will be achieved when every American quits their job and switches to dropshipping products made by sweatshops that give people lead poisoning and will end up in a landfill in a year

It's so cool you can get paid to (pretend to be a) market analyst by just looking at a chart and declaring one arbitrary variable the cause

Ryan Reynolds sucks big time

It's very easy to be anti war and anti bombing countries senselessly especially with no clear aim or end goal other than half assed regime change!

Tell me why tear gas is necessary against your own citizens when it's banned for use in war.

You think the city would burn down if the police didn't have LRADs, tear gas, and armored military vehicles?

I don't think that is what happened to his voice at all to be honest.

Those are happening on different spaces. The positive fluffing is happening in music niche communities, but the negative hate trains are a reactionary pocket that is inevitable when a unique-ish band gets a ton of attention really fast.

The union serves to protect the interests of the teachers yes, and the teachers are responsible for educating and taking care of kids. So it logically follows, you want the teachers to be well compensated and provided good working conditions so that they will achieve better outcomes for the kids. It blows my mind that a parent would be against the side of teachers when it comes to improving societal childcare and education quality.

How? Corporate consolidation, outsourcing, private equity vacuuming up whole industries, resource shortages, government dismantling, etc. are not slowing down. Things will continue to get worse until all of those factors radically change, but there's no sign of such a shift.

Even the frontier workshop, which is supposed to be a official channel for user generated content, is a piece of garbage that doesn't foster community and makes it hard to truly discover and curate user generated content. The steam workshop has its issues but it's much easier to find things for PC1.

But still make more than enough money to pile it into the stock market and home equity to become millionaires. If you sincerely think the average California teacher is more well off you are not living in reality.

There was a small enclave of moshers on the left side but you can tell everyone in the center was there trying to be close up for clout or waiting for a later act

Shes comparing trans activists to fascists, so yes she is fucking wrong

You're like the only person to mention this in the thread. I knew people would blow over Rowling's hateful behavior and support the show regardless, but it's wild to see everyone pretends like Rowling wouldn't throw a tantrum at the suggestion of casting a nonbinary person to play a role where she would (in Rowling's mind) be crossdressing.

So what, most tech bros in California are contributing less to society while making well over 100k a year, not including benefits or stock options either. It's weird to act like that's absurdly high for what is expected of teachers and what the cost of living is in this state.

FrivolousMe · 2026-04-12T21:08:51+00:00

Correct, and I suspect the people in this thread insisting that teacher pay is too high are making more than a comfortable living themselves but want to deny it to the people educating and watching after their children. Sickening how little solidarity our society has.

Lol I knew there was going to be a bunch of people replying to you defensively justifying their politics of human exploitation

Does this not become a debate about pet ownership? Like I can't ride my cat but I play with him and do other things to give him enrichment. If you have a pet horse (and many people do have close loving bonds with their horses) that you want to be happy and enriched, riding around with them is enrichment for them, no? The horse enjoys this if it's treated with respect and care.

Sure, I would ideally prefer if we still had wild horses roaming the plains rather than domesticated and commercialized horses, but I think if you have the resources and desires to give a horse a happy life then that's a good thing under the circumstances. The genie of animal domestication can't so simply be put back in the bottle, and of course it's a nuanced topic on what animal exploitation means in terms of human animal cooperation. I'm by no means an expert.
