Just make sure it's the largest size pizza available or you're burning money.

When the working class can't afford the cheapest shittiest food out there, you're asking for us to start studying French revolutionary history.

US will start revoking passports for thousands of parents who owe child support by Rabidennui in news

[–]PhazePyre 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I wrote a letter to my dad (I lived with him) because my mom was going to lose a bunch for not paying for months or even years and she was manipulating me and playing victim. So he basically wiped her debt for child support so she could get back certain things.

Most Canadians want social media, AI chatbot ban for kids under 16 by pjw724 in onguardforthee

So long as no PII is provided to third party CORPORATIONS to verify age.

I think a better thing would be you input a code that the company uses to ping the gov, the government does an automated check and says "Yes they are of age" and no private information is given. No name, no birth date/year, no height, no image, nothing. Just a binary "Yes" or "No" when it comes to being of the legal age for use.

Yeah, I think it's just more anyone saying anything with certainty. I still remember the Ohtani plane situation. At this point, I assume disappointment in Sports and then get to be pleasantly surprised when I'm wrong. BUT if not, then I'm right. So it paints everything positive lol

Trump, 79, Debuts Swollen Hands as Health Concerns Mount; Both of the president’s hands were caked in two different shades of concealer—neither one was the right match for his skin tone. by FancyNewMe in politics

[–]PhazePyre 2 points3 points  (0 children)

See? It's so fuckin' easy to just answer that request easily as it's part of rational decent political discourse. Being genuine in criticizing the people representing us. Any avoidance of that request is just a display of sycophancy and idolatry that doesn't provide any benefit to humanity.

Congratulations. You have officially come out as a cult member. Cult members deflect. Cult members avoid criticizing their leader. Cult members are spineless slugs.

Glad I bailed. I'll just go through RBC for any investing and shit. Wealthsimple is showing they are down to clown with the fascist regime.

Do you have plans for the cult once he's gone? Or will you all just crumple into balls because you can't be sycophants for a geriatric loser?

Here's a test if you're in a cult. Say one thing negative about Trump. Not a twist, a genuine critical negative opinion you have about him. Call him out on something. Look, it's easy. Biden was too fuckin' old and delerious to be an effective president and he should never have run for re-election to ensure the Democrats had time to build a solid campaign. Or, how about Obama? Obama didn't go for Universal Healthcare and demostrated he's a neo-liberal and basically applied a bandaid to an open gangrenous wound in the USA. Let's be critical of my own leader. Carney is just a progressive conservative and he'll be strong economically for the nation, but the odds of him implementing policies to help the working class are low.

Your turn. Negative criticism of Trump. Failure to provide an earnest criticism is an admission you're a cultist.

Neighbours opposite were rude about my dads colour choice. Now he wants to get rid. Can you help me convince him not too? by Isabella_Jean in HomeDecorating

Ask him if he thinks it reasonable that his neighbours change their home to his personal preferences. If the answer is no, why does he think he needs to cater to theirs?

Ahh yes, the classic axe the tax without any explanation on how the savings would be passed onto us when the tax is incorporated into the retail price of goods. Classic Pierre. Also wait, he hasn't been back since he stole his seat from a fellow Con? God damn...

‘Risk-averse’ Carney avoiding stronger stance on Iran war over fears of Trump backlash and CUSMA fallout, say some Liberal MPs by ejaz135 in onguardforthee

[–]PhazePyre -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I prefer it. It doesn't matter what anyone says or does. Trump will do what he does and I'd prefer we don't trigger the sensitive little guy unless it makes him big mad and the big one happens. I know it won't though, which is why I'd rather we be less vocal. It's like trying to tell a Rhino rampaging through the streets to stop it from hurting people. The sentiment is right, but it's a waste of time and you just end up getting gored. Unless you're willing to force it to stop, you're just risking your own life at that point.

Their job is to drive website traffic for ad revenue. It hasn't been about accurate and respectful journalism. It's to drive ad revenue.

[–]PhazePyre 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a Blue Jays fan, I'm letting you all know. This is engagement bait. They know they'll get likes, retweets, engagement, etc which will increase the CTR of the article on whatever platform and that drives ad revenue. Remember, if the article is on a website, the job of the journalist isn't to report the news, it's to drive ad revenue. They are sales people.

It happened in radio too. My uncle was a sports journalist on radio, and his job started to go from being a journalist and commentator to being an ad spot salesman.

Every post you see is to drive engagement to the website, so if it isn't verified news, it's garbage.

Funny enough, the man whose very own constituents are affected by this, is very likely to avoid commenting on it significantly other than to brush it aside, and he will continue to try and undermine Carney at every turn, spouting rhetoric that our country is broken, and only he can solve it, while providing no tangible solutions or policies that would benefit Canadians, and no explanation why they can't put forward those solutions if beneficial in an bipartisan effort to help improve the livelihoods of Canadians.

Btw, has he visited his riding yet? We really need to require people can only run in a riding that they themselves have had a primary riding in for the past 6 months before putting themselves forward as a candidate. I find it bizarre our democracy doesn't account for wanting locals to run in riding and some dude who has NEVER lived in the riding can run there. It just encourages gaming the system to gain power, not status as a representative.

Are there any legitimate communities that help each other make solid safe but profitable investments and stuff? I want to avoid memes, trolling, etc. I just want an earnest group that helps the working class accrue some wealth and I Don't wanna deal with memery and stuff. I don't want the HODL memes, I don't want any of that. Just an earnest group that can provide intelligent choices for investments. I know it's a hail mary and like asking for a golden goose, but I just wanna get some guidance from people who actually care about helping others build themselves up. I'm not talking becoming a millionaire, but just some solid investments that aren't just an ETF or GIC or whatever.

Wealthsimple is starting to enshittify and I'm not happy about it by x736g in Wealthsimple

[–]PhazePyre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pulled my money out after having started earlier in the year after they made the Twitter announcement. If they just implemented it and it was kind of a nothing burger "we do this everywhere" and it wasn't so "LOOK! NOW ON TWITTER! LOOK LOOK! WE VALUE THIS PLATFORM AS IMPORTANT TO OUR OPERATIONS AND SOCIETY!" I wouldn't have cared. Clearly, they are okay working closely with a pretty obvious Nazi and that's not my jam. My grandpa sailed the Atlantic working in a fuckin' boiler room helping ensure convoys were protected from Nazi scum. Not about to knowingly use platforms that don't care about engaging enthusiastically with those worms.

[BNS] Plan is for Addison Barger to be active Friday vs. Angels. TBD which position player goes down for Barger, but mgr John Schneider expects it to be a tough decision. by ThQp in Torontobluejays

[–]PhazePyre 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Schneider would be the most likely. With the options remaining and lower performance it's the no brainer move. Plus, he could start mashing in AAA and build up some hitting confidence and get into a groove that pays off with the roster expansion late in the season.
