There should be no billionaires so long as there are millions of people who cannot earn a living wage from a 5 day a week 7.5 hour (plus half-hour lunch) work day. I hate the people who believe that millions have fallen off the employment rolls because the *don’t want to work*. Bullpucky. I hate those who blindly…

And again, if a thing cannot be avoided, then you cannot use fiscal pressure on it. And you know its impossible to live in the modern world without the internet in some form. It is a fundamental necessity of life at this point - people with access to it succeed, people without access to it can never achieve the same…

That’s not a good argument though - if something cannot be avoided no matter how you might choose alternatives - then it isn’t a choice.  You can still protest the things you do have control over.  And you can willingly choose to make sure that your personal funds are not contributing to the problems. 

Thing is, the items I purchase where Amazon might be able to “compete” are items I can get for cheaper from the source because I have established relationships with them. I work in IT. *shrug* I do understand that regular people don’t have that relationship, but to be honest - people who get that stuff from Amazon…

Well, I don’t shop at wal-mart. I do have alternatives, after all. And a score of health issues throughout my life means that I never got to participate in the various vices and habits most people have. When abstinence is a survival imperative you learn to do without AND be extraordinarily resistant to peer and social…

Yes I will. I will always have a choice. It may not be a *good* choice, but Amazon can’t force me to give Bezos a single penny. :) Sometimes you don’t have to play the game. And if it becomes something where it is the only legal choice? I’ll break the law. If it becomes something where it will cost me my life? I’ll…

Good for Taylor. Her music isn’t my thing, but between this messaging and her political endorsements last year, I like her more.

I have never purchased from Amazon.

My uncle owned a single-wide trailer in bumfuck SC, which he rented out to random meth-heads and other assorted fuckups. Well, he evicted one of his shitbag tenants and tasked my then-14-year-old brother with cleaning out the trailer.

I don’t know about you, but I have serious anxiety about getting a fleshlight through a TSA checkpoint, so she stays at home. I can jerk off into a hotel washcloth filled with moisturizer and left on the room heater for five minutes for a couple days just fine.

How can you criticize a guy who is always pulling for his teammates?

I can understand packing a fleshlight to use discreetly on the road, but it takes a psychopathic level of commitment to one’s masturbation habits to travel with a lifesize replica of a headless, limbless woman to fuck right there in front of others.

You got it, dude!

Despite having been asked repeatedly to Cut it Out, he refused, and so the judge is not expected to Have Mercy on him.

I’m sorry, I’ll see myself out.

This is the correct take.

Scoring in a World Cup is personal as much as it is for the benefit of the team. Mallory Pugh scored the eleventh goal, and it was her first ever goal in a World Cup (in her first World Cup game). Alex Morgan tied a USWNT record. It’s always a big deal to score in a World Cup, and these players are allowed to…

Drake is a monster. Does no one remember that he used to pretend to be handicapped?!

Half, but a) it seemed to come from a place of love, b) it was more nuanced than that. He had a great bit (Jizanthapus) where he basically described - in ever escalating detail - how being protective of your kids makes you think evil thoughts about anyone endangering their comfort, including other children.

You knew he was joking but wasn’t sure he was joking? Just take the L.

If I order a pizza and I’m not very hungry, I ask them to cut it into 4 slices so I don’t have to eat 8.
