I had to explain to my mom the other day about server wages and she didn't even believe me at first.

Not to defend server wages in any capacity, but the utter fact that she didn't know the wage nor the federal minimum wage absolutely astounded me. And when she tried to tell me to vote for Trump because of no tax on tips, I told her, "then just tip in cash," she was stuttering and moved on from the topic.

I buy via https://stnrcreations.com/ Get them delivered straight to my house. Delta 8 is federally legal, so that's what you can purchase from the regardless of state. Where I live, all the smoke/vape shops also sell a bunch of delta 8 products. But I've preferred the stnr brand over most things I've tried.

I just buy mine online. No driving needed.

When I looked at it, it said 7 months ago. So someone braved it relatively recently.

Omg it has images from 6 years ago and 7 months ago. The difference is absolutely mind blowing. But also in general, to see how it looks now its just so depressing. I've been reading a book right now that's based in the 1930s and this looks and feels like the Hoovertowns they describe.

It's like a literal Hoovertown.

You forgot about that beautiful thing also known as your local library!

Mine is around 2 miles away from my home and only charges me 10¢ per b&w sheet. Its absolutely perfect for any printing needs I may have.

Omg! I remember watching that documentary when I was much younger and thought it was absolutely real and was shocked that I had never heard anyone else talking about it. Then... I found out it wasn't actually real and to say I was pissed off was an understatement. I haven't anything from discovery channel since.

The last time I scrolled through my Facebook feed, I saw more ads than actual posts from people I'm friends with. I couldn't spend more than a few minutes on there considering it was like 1 in 8 posts was by someone I follow or am friends with and the rest were ads.

Boost on android and Apollo on my iPad. Absolutely fantastic apps that made the experience so much better. I don't even remember the last time I used the ofifical reddit app. Though, I haven't used reddit since the blackout began.

It's insane how true this is. I've actually worked with some kids that have no idea how to use windows, let alone know how to type. It's so odd, and almost disorienting at times, to experience this from both those older than me (parents, etc) and those younger than me.
