Ok so what part of diversity, equity or inclusion do you specifically dislike?

Oh man I've got some bad news, this has been happening for a while... Gestures to all of American labor history

*post stuff about hobbies, local news and other fun stuff to Lemmy so those communities grow

One CO worker looked a rude old lady right in the eye and said "ma'am this is a place of business. When people do business they have to operate with mutual respect and trust. If we don't trust each other to do our end of a transaction, we can't exchange anything between us. If we don't respect each other, we can't exchange anything between us. I've been acting in trust and respect towards you, are you going to do the same for me? Because if you can't, we can't do business."

She immediately stopped being bitchy and was never a problem again. It was the wildest shit I've ever seen.

I've had so many people use the third law there in shitty arguments and acting like it's an irrefutable scientific fact it's soured that quote for me.

Thank you!

Can we get a ruling on words that are ambiguously swear words like "piss"?

Thank you.

Fuck.

I make linoleum cut prints!

Old world of darkness lore slapped though

*bare hands

Unless you're saying the state gives the victims cool animal grafts

Another option, if they are legally required to fix the bedbugs, is to start putting your rent in escrow. That might be a down the road option, but it's good to have in your back pocket.

I'm not an exterminator but traps don't do much imo

Check your lease and the laws of your area. Where I'm at, infestations are the landlord's responsibility unless that gets waived by the tenant as part of the lease. It might be different where you are. If you're in a building with multiple tenants, and you spray every room properly, it'll be real hard to get rid of them.

There are ways to test for it. If you have a bed frame, putting tape on the legs and bowls of water under the feet can catch them so you can make sure.

If you need to spray yourself, get the Ortho home defense max bedbug flea and tick killer. It's the one thing that I've find that really works, but you do have to follow the directions, including doing a second spray.

Ok op cards on the table, what did you say it was?

Yeah I mean, with the death of local news, it's harder to keep up because you have to investigate and research everything yourself. Which some might hand wave away as not a big deal but when you are working 3 jobs it's hard to find time.

No shit it's us centric answers op asked what the plan was for the "leaders" in the us

That is irrelevant to my point, however true it may be

So you admit that those cultural aspects are actually there. Which are failed when they are used to support the ruling class.

Which was my point.

Something something ugly black spot idk

Yeah dawg that's my point. We have the ideal of equality but also failed to actually follow through with it.

I'm talking about the shared cultural values of the society we have today, views shared by most Americans. Most Americans like free speech. Most Americans like liberty. Et cetera and so on. These are things that are part of our culture. You aren't any less of a person for recognizing that these are values that are held by this culture.

I am also saying that despite culturally sharing in these values, our society also fails to actually support them in very big ways.
