Ive had companies call my mom over stuff because the last known contact information they found for me was from when I was still living with my parents. Literally years after I moved out.
The "A.I" excuse stuff reads like bullshit. The mom call might just be old information.
I am horified that a man was assassinated in the street, I'm just more horrified at the state of what passes for "Healthcare" and "acceptable business practices" in America.
Im not happy that man is dead, I'm just less happy that health insurance is so predatory, corrupt and broken that someone felt that he needed to die.
I dont think anyone deserves to be gunned down in the street, some people are just a lot closer to deserving it than others.
Your Aunt sounds like she is working with the system we have. Lemmys heart is in the right place but practically speaking most of the vitriol you read on here would need a genie in a magic lamp to come true. We need to squeeze the top the hardest, not squeeze everyone with more than us.
Once they abolish people buying properties and parking them empty just to make money on the property value increasing, then they abolish corporations owning hundreds or thousands of houses while colluding to fix the rental market, then they abolish people buying family dwellings and turning them into airbnbs, then the property developers churning out acre upon acre of McMansions with zero affordable housing, then the foreign investors, then maybe listen to their criticism of mom and pop investors owning a handful of properties and making what is probably the safest and most lucrative investment honest hard working people can make.
Contaminated batch. Missing screw on the dough mixer after filling the ovens? Replace the screw and dump the batch. Probably sold for next to nothing to someone with pigs.
My conspiracy theory is that Trump will "Talk tough" to Putin and "tell him" to back off and take only "minor" concessions to end the war. He gets to claim that he ended it, look how strong and diplomatic he can be. Putin will spin it differently back home, nobody will buy it but nobody will care because the sanctions will be lifted and money will start flowing.
The Ukraine wont get NATO admission, the US will block it but they will be a whole lot better off than if Trump just removed all US support and the bombing will stop so they wont like it, but the alternative is losing the whole country.
Nah fuck them, its fake internet points I dont give a shit.
Squeeze from the top down, not squeeze everyone with more than me. Thats the attitude that pushes the middle class to conservative voting and we can either advocate for sensible changes or scream into the void.
Is that the standard package they all receive? All of them? In every industry everywhere?
Let's calm down on the "everyone on a board of directors probably needs shooting" energy. There's am awful lot of medium size companies staffed by regular every day people for every fat cat evil corporate overlord. The guy with a 3yo Audi on a lease is not the same as the guy who has a driver for his Maybach.
For anyone who wants to watch a good movie and get some insight into your ego being your worst enemy should watch the Guy Ritchie movie "Revolver". Its one of my favorites.
Take it from a 40yo man who recently pushed himself into borderline eating disorder territory chasing fitness goals... yeah dont take it to addiction territory.
The one that fucks me off is when people are like "Sorry about that, us russians are hot blooded." Or "I cant help myself around the ladies, its the latin blood" You're both 3 generations deep, one of you is a sexist pig and the other is just an angry cunt.
Or people act like insert culture here has some mystical connection to food. You see it all the time on bullshit cooking shows "I'm blank so food is very important to me" or that because their great grandmother was Italian they have some innate gift for cooking pasta... like in the village of 200 families she was from there isnt a chance that your nonna was the worst cook in town.
