I bet that's partially because they were expensive.

If I break into your house and steal your TV then knock on your door the next day to offer to sell it back to you, would you buy it?

An avocado and some cheese wouldn't kill me but it would give me diarrhea so bad that I might pray for death.

It's our current iteration of society that shouldn't exist.

Californian here. I'm on board.

I don't know her and I'm not a psychologist but that sounds an awful like she's projecting. I'd bet it wasn't the food she was angry with.

This is a fantasy about suicide but... yes.

I know the courts upheld it in 2023. I haven't heard of anything changing since then.

That argument is just a regurgitation of the propaganda that these people bought into. You can't possibly know what would have happened because the law was voted down. I think that if those companies severely restricted the number of drivers they allowed, quality of service would decline and they would end up losing market share. In the end, there probably are somewhat fewer drivers, but those drivers are guaranteed to be making at least minimum wage plus mileage and access to health insurance.

I live in California where we attempted to pass a law that would force these companies to hire their drivers as employees. Every gig worker i know bought the corpo propaganda and voted against it. That was when I realized exactly how much of an education and media literacy problem we have in this country.

I have IBS and I do wish it on my worst enemies. Gimme that pink pill.

They'll just take a page from the Trump playbook and start wearing diapers.

We know exactly what's causing the issue: lack of legal abortion.

Nice 6 year old article.

I wish I couldn't stand the smell. It's been a few years now but I still get regular cravings.

I grew up in a house with smokers, picked it up as a teenager and smoked a pack a day for 20 years after that. Now I can smell someone lighting up 2 blocks away.

It's kind of crazy. As time passed without smoking, I noticed many things smelled differently to me. For example, I was repulsed by the smell of cheddar cheese the first time I smelled it after quitting. I can't put it into words properly but it smelled so different from what I was expecting that the thought of taking a bite made my stomach turn.

The Trump voters beginning to realize the consequences of what they have done to themselves might be funny if they hadn't also done the same to me.

Huh... I've always assumed that manchild was using "man" as human or mankind. Just looked it up and I was wrong.

Yes.

And the 6 brand new, wildly expensive apartments across the street from me have been vacant for months.
