Hi Lil Tay,

People take shitty jobs because they have no better options and have to make some money to survive.

The cost of Uber is already inline with the cost of a taxi. The reason why Uber rides are cheaper is because Uber is throwing billions of dollars of venture capital down the drain to try to squeeze out the competition.

Those costs are subsidized by Venture Capitalists. When taxis disappear, those subsidies will too.

“People who voluntarily take on a shitty Uber gig” are people who don’t have much of a choice. Same as people who take on any other low-paying exploitive job.

That would be a good thing. Right now too many Uber drivings are driving around and double parking and clogging up traffic in places like San Francisco.

Uber can limit the number of hours a week they allow them to work to 40 and under

He really wants to go through discovery and depositions, then, huh?

The internet’s most important animals, eh? Well, my week was pretty good, and I’m Kinja!

My cat, GB Townsend, liked the video of the cat falling over on loop, but I think he had trouble following the plot because there’s not really a way to explain what a “loop” is.

This is a separate tangent that rarely gets talked about. We already know that standardized tests have an inherit bias to them and now you have those who can afford to supplementing study efforts.

“But because space is limited, roping off 25% of the seats for disadvantaged kids means that 25% of the current students will be forced to attend a different, likely worse performing school.

What jobs?

They don’t see it as punching down, they don’t see the people they are punching at all... until they punch back, then they call it a riot and demand police step in to quell the violence.

It’s so weird how all these corrupt sacks of shit bought into low income housing and now have an in to force low income renters out of the property so that they could have it rebranded and sold as run of the mill valuable AF real estate.

Emily:

I’ve read some hysterical defenses of this guy based solely on his service and his rank with the underlying logic being he’s in the military and he’s an Admiral so he’s legit - ‘he’s a damn ‘hero’ Ethel!.

The doctor who lied about Trump’s physical results has a shady background?! No! Who’d have thought!

You know how if, say, a bunch of dudes on a podcast did it to a woman it would be incredibly sexist?

Now playing


And this is pretty darn glorious as well.
