The idea behind a minimum wage when FDR instituted it was that anyone who worked 40 hours a week deserved to make enough to live on. It rewarded honest work with an honest paycheck. Telling someone to get a ‘real’ job is unhelpful and condescending, and demeans the work of millions. ‘Entry Level’ should not mean ‘Pover…

I have more sympathy for Uber drivers, because at the end of the day, Uber is a scam. It’s a taxi company that has done an end-run around nearly all taxi regulation while offloading the single biggest expense of taxis, the car, to the drivers. Who they treat like shit.

I absolutely think it’s less ugly than the cybertruck

But MAH FREE MARKET! The government can try to regulate it but the shitheads who went to Washington to destroy rule of law are happy to shoot down any legislation that would actually benefit people, especially if Musk and Co. promised said shitheads a nice donation in exchange for killing the bill.

It’s lovely that I have to see that thirsty twat’s name and/or face a half-dozen times before 9 a.m. pretty much every weekday.

Nah. Stay mad about it tho.

“They’re annoyed at the enormity at which those things happen, often seeming extremely deliberate in it’s attack on “straight white men”

Oh come on. As a straight white man, absolutely none of those stories with female or minority or LGBTQ even remotely feel like an “attack”. You know why? Because I’m a well adjusted…

I couldn't get into Futurama because John Futurama never showed up *once*.

This is a hilarious instance to get upset about what you’re claiming though. Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is already a deliberate attack on the straight white male protagonist. Scott Pilgrim is not a likable character (that was a big part of why I had mixed feelings about the movie). The point is that he’s a selfish…

Nah, it was actually great, and a majority of the criticism comes from people who can’t process stories they don’t immediately relate to.

People incapable of character growth hate character growth. 

I have no way to know whether she’s fun or not, but she’s absolutely right. These ads are glamourising [sic not sic] the exact behaviours [sic not sic] and attitudes that are destroying our climate and environment and will be killing us at an accelerating rate. So I guess I don’t give a fuck about her personality.

Can’t tell if serious, a troll, or a total idiot. But “the latest data” showing that most of the carbon is coming from decomposing plant and tree material- that’s just fucking stupid. Plant and tree material has ALWAYS been decomposing. Its the extra carbon we’ve been releasing into the atmosphere over the past 100+…

I’m sorry you think it’s “wone” to write that the planet cannot absorb billions more tons of CO2.

Let’s hope a large percentage of them are PHEV, then.

“crocodile tears”
I hate that term. Crocodiles are beautiful creatures, these people on the other hand are a disgusting virus.

I listen to AM sports talk radio. Hard to understand why that makes me a bigot

Experience, AM radio is full of garbage.

We don’t need radios, we have phones. 

Reminds me of the time I filled up a rental I had to return it full, like I was supposed to. Then drove the 15 miles to the rental return place and was charged like $30 for not returning it with a full tank. 🙄
