They don’t want to protect us bro. That’s why everyone hates the LAPD. Imagine being the victim of a crime and being laughed out of the station. Or getting robbed, and waiting 45 minutes for someone who literally doesn’t give a shit to show up.

Also, as someone pointed out, the only thing they do about gangs is form their own.

Fuck, man. DBZ was a huge part of my childhood. Toriyama is a legend.

Different bottles have different rants - I think the PTSD/shrooms one is the almond soap. Peppermint is the All-One nonsense one

We had peppermint in our bathroom for years so imagine my surprise when I read a different bottle and it not only wasn’t batshit but kinda fuckin rad

Yeah, that’s a bit of a reach - not like immigrants aren’t brutally exploited on vegetable farms either or anything

You’re not even wrong on 3/4 but explain to me how going vegan is a stand against discrimination? I stop eating eggs and systemic racism is defeated??

Am I an idiot, or does the article literally not once mention LA? I see SF, San Jose, Oakland, but no southern California….

Randy is such a piece of shit it’s wild

Why does everybody forget the rape allegations that he didn’t stand trial for?

Very exciting. Bummed we have to wait till the end of the year for this

Bro you’re straight up just lying. It’s so clear that you have no idea what being a server is like, because believe it or not, you do actually make pretty decent money (a hell of a lot more than working the check stand at a grocery store). This is part of the discussion that is actually worth having, because similar to nurses who don’t want universal health care, there are a lot of people in the service industry who like the tipping system.

Sure, here’s how “the rest of the civilized world works”: people pay their fucking employees. America is broken.

Your limp dick protest does nothing except hurt employees. The owners still make the exact same amount from you, and the lower class gets fucked.

Since you seem to have reading comprehension issues, let me make this clear:

• I do not support tipping
• Not tipping is taking it out on the person who’s vulnerable
• Therefore, if I don’t feel like tipping, I do not go out

It’s not working, the wage divide is getting larger, and you’re a heartless idiot who very likely is eating a lot of spit. Because, as you should know since you “worked service”, people talk and know if a customer is going to stiff them.

If you’re going out to eat and not tipping, I truly don’t believe you have worked at a food service job. Full stop.

Tipping is a construct of capitalism that allows owners to shunt the burden of paying their workers to the customer. Yes, it’s fucked. This does not change the fact that if a server waits on your bum ass for an hour, and you don’t tip, they probably made about $3 while serving you. It’s basic human respect to compensate someone for that - and while it’s fucked that the burden falls on you, that’s the name of the game in America.

Don’t go out to eat if you don’t want to tip.

Bro is an idiot without an ounce of empathy who has clearly never had to work a service job a day in their lives. I’m with you ms docrime

Just don’t eat out if you don’t want to tip. Tipping culture is fucked but servers are just as victimized as customers.

Wow, this is super cool - saving this for when I finally spruce up my old desktop for a home server. You’re a talented person mate

I thought you were exaggerating, but nope. That thread is really hard to read. I guess if you’re the type to run executables off a discord server you’re not the brightest bulb though lol

Anybody who doesn’t like the rape apologist supports Trump 😭😭😭

Everyone seems to hate Clarence Thomas but doesn’t seem to remember Biden grilling Anita Hill.

It’s almost like the guy above you is complaining that we had many better options during the 2020 primary, but people like you voted for a dogshit candidate that is literally losing in the polls to an overt fascist.

So when democracy is gone, I personally will blame people who saw how much a threat Trump was and thought fucking Joe Biden was the best choice.

Or he knows that he’ll likely get primaried if he changes his stance? Money runs politics in more ways than one

That’s fucking awesome. Stoked for you!

Or maybe that slur really did carry less weight for an Englishman in 1971? Here’s the quote you referenced:

Let me ask you about something else that was in the Hunter Davies book. At one point it said you and Brian Epstein went off to Spain.

Yes. We didn’t have an affair though. Fuck knows what was said. I was pretty close to Brian. If somebody is going to manage me, I want to know them inside out. He told me he was a fag.

I hate the way Allen is attacked and Brian is made out to be an angel just because he’s dead. He wasn’t, you know, he was just a guy.

I read the entire interview. There’s nothing in there condemning being gay, or even really any commentary on sexuality. He says a slur a few times! In 1971! There’s also a huge chunk of the interview where he talks about supporting civil rights, which you’re not talking about for some reason.

Your comments makes it sound like he’s hand in hand with Reagan 10 years later, when it’s honestly less offensive than a lot of shit that’s been said this decade by politicians and Christians worldwide.

I doubt I can change your mind, since you seem pretty set on this point. But I’m curious: Elton John didn’t come out as gay until the 90s. If he was killed in 1980, would you be calling him a bigot too?

As far as I can tell, the lawsuit is still ongoing? This is the most recent court document I could find, but it’s more than a year old: https://www.vermontjudiciary.org/sites/default/files/documents/bombard%20v%20riggen%20mello%2021-cv-176%2011-2-22.pdf

Very interested to see how much the taxpayers have to pay for another cop abusing his power
