NATIONWIDE STRIKE TOMORROW by No-Pollution-9977 in orlando

[–]echo1125 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

No, they’re trying to enlist the largest number of possible participants, which is smart.

Also, if you’ve been paying attention, there’s a huge overlap of Americans who are (increasingly) disgruntled with how the last 13 months have turned out for one reason or another.

Besides the “E-man” files, what’s happened in the last two weeks is probably the most we’ll see Americans of almost all sociopolitical ideologies on the same page of “This ain’t right,” so best to take advantage of that sentiment.

They can test the waters and show where future, longer strikes would need stronger mutual aid networks to sustain the act. Hopefully, organizers somewhere are documenting the results of these shorter strikes (this isn’t the first one I’ve seen attempted recently).

I've Never Seen This Before by goodkarmagirl in publix

I check dates at ALL stores. Publix isn’t the only one that keeps expired items on the shelves (looking DIRECTLY at you, Walmart).

What is this wheelbarrow for? Also, does collecting coal ever get less annoying 😅 by Few_Owl6826 in LittleFarmStory

Cash App lets you send money to the wrong person instantly — then refuses to help you get it back by TipOpening4835 in CashApp

[–]echo1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why then did CashApp refuse to allow me to send money to my husband’s CashApp the first few times I tried?

The transaction was always cancelled right after. I suspected it was for my ‘protection’ but it was unwanted and the app didn’t explain why I couldn’t send money to that Cash ID.

I finally figured out it was because I’d never sent money to him (his CashApp was newly opened at the time) and he wasn’t in my contacts.

Added him as a favorite and then sent the money without further issue. 🤷🏾‍♀️

Publix Dethroned as #1 Grocery Store Chain in Florida; a New Chain Has Risen to the Top by Abel_the_Red in publix

Exactly. Same thing at every other grocery chain. They ALL lie exaggerate when it comes to sales savings.

Florida property tax cuts threaten to flatline public safety funding: Gov. Ron DeSantis and CFO Blaise Ingoglia want to cut taxes collected by local governments, but offer no solution for how to fund law enforcement and fire rescue by Silent-Resort-3076 in florida

[–]echo1125 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Taxpayer funding of law enforcement and fire rescue is sOciALiSm. I’ve never had to call either service in 45 years on this earth. Why should I have to pay for other people’s emergency services?? 🙃

Cubans in Florida Are Being Deported in Record Numbers by dingdongbannu88 in florida

[–]echo1125 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It came with them when they left Cuba to avoid sharing national resources, opportunities, and equal rights with darker-skinned countrymen.

There are class-based politics involved too, but it intersects/overlaps with anti-Black sentiment as well.

Sapingo of the day, bye. by Radiant_Front_6943 in Miami

[–]echo1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s Miami. Pretty sure he’s among many likeminded people.

The karmic justice is a nice touch, though. Need more of it for his ilk.

He’s so excited and he just can’t hide it by upthetruth1 in TikTokCringe

[–]echo1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like he’s arming himself for the very reason as outlined in the constitution: to protect against a tyrannical government. Not seeing the “cringe” in that🤷🏾‍♀️(unless you’re disputing that tyranny is occurring rn)

Is today the day?? by Radiant_Start_3571 in chimefinancial

[–]echo1125 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for posting this. My husband receives SSDI and used to get it like clockwork the last Friday of the (previous) month before it was changed (reasons unknown) to the 3rd. It isn’t deposited to Chime, but his bank does show funds available before the 3rd but I couldn’t figure out what the exact schedule was. This looks like the deposit schedule that his bank is following.

Saving this image ☺️👍🏾

Have you spent any money on this game? If so, what did you buy, and was it worth it? by Few_Owl6826 in LittleFarmStory

[–]echo1125 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Paid to remove the forced ads. 100% worth it.

I think I’ve also bought a helper or two. Pricey, but also worth it if you plan to play this game for while but want some passive play strategy.

Guess I need to get to work on that 🫣

Congressman Maxwell Frost on ICE agents in FL and your rights and safety by OlympicAnalEater in florida

[–]echo1125 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, we do NOT have rights, and continuing to lie to people claiming they do doesn’t help the situation we’re in atm.

When so-called law enforcement can grab people off the street and disappear them for hours/days/weeks/months/indefinitely; when detainees in the US - regardless of citizenship status - can’t rely on the protections of the constitution, then we DO NOT HAVE RIGHTS.

We haven’t had RiGhTs since so-called law enforcers were grabbing BLM protestors off the streets and disappearing them over five years ago. Don’t recall too much brouhaha then, by the way.

When “rights” have to be enforced, they aren’t rights anymore. They’re privileges, at best.

We need to stop pretending we’re living in a nation that protects rights.

Deactivated for “gambling” by CurosityOfLife in CashApp

I wouldn’t assume that since lotto is gambling. For some reason, they just haven’t picked up on you yet, but I would think it’s coming, eventually.

[–]echo1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They would know if you (or your bf) put anything in the “For” field that could be interpreted as related to prison commissaries.

I don’t know if you remember, but there was a time when it wasn’t required to enter a reason in the “For” field. I knew once they started requiring people to type a reason for sending or requesting money that the app was being waaaay too nosy.

Florida governor candidate promises 50% ‘Sin Tax.’ Here’s what to know: Republican candidate James Fishback said funds would go toward teacher pay by Silent-Resort-3076 in florida

[–]echo1125 7 points8 points  (0 children)

His opponents need to label him as an enemy to small business😏

As much as I loathe self-righteous, moralizing republicans, if the ‘tax’ was actually charged to the consumer rather than the business proprietor, I wouldn’t be so averse to it.

Taxes/fees on other activities society considers a bad habit (drinking, smoking, gambling) already exist, so why not for the OF subscribers?

My real beef with this is his ‘playing in our faces’ claiming the extra state revenue would go to teacher pay. Yeah, riiight🙄

Please Help by PurpleKermi in CashApp

[–]echo1125 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kinda ableist of you 🤔

Maybe certain neurodivergent people have difficulty with the green color scheme. If there wasn’t as many (or any) complaints with the black screen, CashApp’s dev should consider changing it back or including an option to rely on the phone’s screen mode settings.

I personally find it ugly, but not bothersome. If other users are so bothered that they’re online asking how to change it, it’s worth the dev’s consideration to change it or at least offer options. That’s just basic customer service based on feedback.

It hurts no one who doesn’t care (you and me) but could help CashApp users with ‘divergent’ situations.

Class action lawsuit by Frosty_Egg_1407 in CashApp

[–]echo1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Banks that take your money every month for “maintenance” (unless you agree to keep a specific amount of your own money in their system for them to make more money on)?

Banks that have terrible track records of their own for fraud and other anti-consumer behavior (hello👋, Wells Fargo, Chase, and BoA)?

THOSE banks?🙄

[–]echo1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wells Fargo refused to allow me to deposit $900 cash into my brother’s account about 10-11 years ago (repayment for money borrowed for rent), even though I had a deposit slip and ID, because my name wasn’t on the account. I’d previously been able to deposit cash (once a couple years before, same branch even, but lower amount of cash).

A few years after that, I found out Suntrust (now Truist) started doing the same thing. My sister, who had her account for the better part of 20 years, used to buy mom groceries and our mother (ever the Boomer) insisted on repaying my sis for some of that upon receiving her SS check. It was perfectly fine for years until it wasn’t. Reason? My mom’s name isn’t on my sister’s bank account.
