“Henry Schrein announced short term savings that will be swallowed right back up in a couple of years when they either need to hire back a lot of the workforce or face backlash from customers when their product quality declines. Or both!”
Edit: I keep coming back to this in my mind - thinking about this guy who will think this is a GREAT IDEA for two weeks. And then get home sans a finger.
Not even to mention the possible outcomes of the games. Anything could happen. Their team could be out in the first round (maybe because everyone didn't have all their fingers at it hurt their play more than they expected!). There was also a fire on the trains earlier today in an arson attempt. I hate to think about it, but the Olympics have had bombs go off before, and what if the games are postponed for some reason. I really hope that doesn't happen, but I'm just thinking about all these possibilities that could come up to make amputation even more dumb than it is right now.
I get that competitive spirit makes you do crazy things sometimes. But I will 100% predict - no matter what this guy says in the future - that when he's 50, 60, 70...30 years + one month old he's going to have the biggest regrets. It doesn't even matter which finger - you use that finger more that you think. And there's going to be something that is now worse. Shit, I'm typing this message and I'm using ALL my fingers. I can't even imagine not having one.
“Sir if you go full MAGA the liberals won’t buy your cars any more.”
(Though he can still donate all this money to PACs I’m sure and no one will know so by saying this he’s probably just trying to save face and stuff give money to the shit heads.)
This reminds me that someone set up a donation link via actblue where donations via that link come with the message that she and her campaign should set up their own mastodon server.
They are up to $40,000 as I type this.
So if you were thinking of donating anyway, you can go through here to point that money to a “cause” you want her to consider. May not happen, but at least we might get it on their radar.
It sounds exactly like a “Hey, our MAGA people are insane and worship a really stupid guy for [reasons no rational person understands], so obviously they have a group of people who are equally insane!” when no one worships Biden; it’s just the alternative is too nuts to ever vote for.
