Don't worry. They'll be "marked down" to regular price (still overpriced) on the sell-by date so people think they're getting a deal.

He said one of the deciding factors was "Biden's radical climate agenda." Oh, well! Good riddance. The world needs a radical climate agenda in my opinion and if you're not going to be part of the solution, then you're either contributing to the problem or standing in the way.

That's basically the situation with almost every fast food restaurant these days, some casual dinning places and even grocery stores.

You can limit when an app is allowed to access your location in Android. But I'm guessing it's used for finding the nearest restaurant to do mobile orders.

Location, Camera/photos, ( I assume for something like QR scanning), notification, audio.

Exactly. I guess at this point, I'm ok with some certain datapoints being collected. Mostly what they'll get from me is that I occasionally like a Sausage Egg McMuffin on my way to work. lol

I never go to McDonalds without using a code from the app. $2 breakfast sandwich? Cool. 20% off entire order? Cool. It's gotten to the point that using the app is necessary to get reasonably priced food. Without it, you're overpaying.

When they dropped the $1 iced tea, I knew shit got real.

I always think of the words from Millencolin's song No Cigar.

Cause I don't care where I belong no more

What we share or not I will ignore

And I won't waste my time fitting in

'Cause I don't think contrast is a sin

I just did a career day at my sons middle school a few weeks ago. It's still just as cringe and awkward as when I was there myself. haha!

In high school I hung out with all the punks and skaters. A lot of them would wear the studded jackets with patches and stuff. I didn't usually dress the part but I love punk music and I love the skate culture so I felt like I fit in there. We didn't care what anyone else thought or said to us. Social media and cell phones also weren't really a thing. Bullying is different now because of that and it's a real problem in many places. I'm sorry you had to take your daughter out of that school. I hope she knows there are people like her, who like the same kinds of music or the same kinds of clothes and that she's not a freak or a weirdo. School can be tough. Even as an adult people make jokes sometimes about the music I listen too, but you know what? I still don't care! lol
