Bah, why even go to that much trouble when they can just ask AI what the results of an election would be?

That and Quake II are the only console games I've ever sunk an enormous amount of time into.

Even just regular cream cheese. It's $8 for a 12 oz. tub of Philadelphia brand but $1.50 for an 8 oz foil-wrapped blocked of the generic. For years now I've been buying the generic blocks and packing them into old Philadelphia tubs because my parents insist on the name brand. They've never said a word about it.

I'm sure you could make your own whipped cream cheese with a food processor.

At least they didn't use "insurgent" in the headline, I suppose.

My favorite shrinkflation is Campbell's soup, particularly their low-sodium offerings. Costs twice as much, comes in a slightly smaller can, and isn't condensed. So you pay five times as much for them to just not put so much fucking salt into their soup in the first place.

It's not weird. They and everybody with two connected neurons know the confederate flag really means "I hate black people".

The Sopranos did this in one early episode. Dude shoots another dude in a car and is immediately like "FUCK!" and holding his ears. Rest of the series is dudes casually blazing away and "I'm all itchy!"

I'm a school bus driver and we're unionized (Teamsters) ... at least for now. Our contract states that if ever fewer than than 50% of the drivers are in the union, the contract is voided. A lot of the newer drivers are not signing up for the union because they don't want to pay the dues which are around $80 per month. We are surrounded by non-union school districts that pay their drivers about $8 less per hour and don't provide health insurance, PTO or a pension like we get.

In case this isn't obvious, school bus drivers are generally some dumb motherfuckers.

"Don't You (Forget About Me)" might be the best '80s song ever, complete with the band (Simple Minds) originally hating the song.

Not many people have actual step-siblings and yet we all know what that shit is about.

I went from mobile apps programmer to school bus driver. 100X happier even if I make 1/6 what I used to.
