The only thing worse than a bigot is a cowardly bigot.

Mistakes? The premium was one of the best choices Musk made. Everyone kept using it and it allowed him to just extract wealth from people for no consequences. Why wouldn’t other companies follow suit?

When stuff goes poorly in a socialist regime it’s always “this is proof of socialisms short comings and shows the inherent inhumanity of such an ideology!” but when it comes to capitalism it’s always “individual people who are corrupted misused the system to do harm, and yeah it keeps happening but it’s not an inherent trait of our system!”

Christine Jorgensen began transitioning in the early twenties and was a pretty major celebrity. When the Nazis took power some of the Authors they attacked were sexologists. Trans issues weren’t something completely alien to them, they probably wouldn’t take asking them their pronouns well but it wouldn’t be hard to explain.

Are they really though? Everyday there is a new “GOP IS LOSING!” article but they are still restricting abortion, attacks LGBT people, and changing curriculums to racist dog shit

are they losing or do we just say that to make ourselves feel better about doing nothing about the encroaching fascism?

It’s just not stealing, you guys can whine all you want and twist the meaning of stealing to a fifth graders understanding but it doesn’t change the fact that it is not stealing. Is it wrong or right? That’s another debate that is worth having,but weather or not it’s “stealing” has an obvious answer which is no. There is no debate

Why not Zoidberg, I’ll tell you friend! He is a criminal! He operates on humans despite having no former training on the subject! No, not Zoidberg. Yes! On the Jack Johnson, John Jackson unified ticket!

Because they grew up in households that would say to them “I don’t know why you’re having to learn this! No one uses it except for the eggheads down at Livermore!” and so they ignored it and now justify their ignorance by repeating the same horseshit anti-intellectual screed

People out here saying “why would you expect anyone to know basic elementary school math!?” it was the only logical progression from “no one needs to know how to solve mysterious factors!! (algebra)”

Thank you for being the sole voice of culture

Replied to the wrong comment 😭

I have seen so much more porn on a single night of reddit than I have the entire time I’ve been on lemmy. I feel this is just a weird psyop to scare people away from the “degenerate leftist place!”

O no, the platform is operating exactly as intended.

Can lemmy please not be the curmugenoy spot where people whine about restaurants? Please?

I’m sorry, I misunderstood who I was responding to. I don’t get how to see the parent comments on this service.

I don’t care if someone tips or not. If you provide top tier service regardless of the tip amount, then the tips you get at the end of the pay period are quite good.

I’m upset and tired of the near conspiratorial tone and constant complaining about tipping. Would it be better if wages were better? Yes, but they are not, tip or don’t, that’s fine. Some people may get upset if someone doesn’t tip but I find it really unlikely that servers will even remember who you are by the end of the night much less hold or grudge or try and mess with anyone’s order over you not giving a couple bucks or so.

I never said it was “just people being cheap” also that’s an article written by the business owner, who’s business went under a month before. He also tried that again in Oakland and that closed as well

Then the conversation isn’t relevant to you is it?

1. (since we’re doing this asinine format I’ll join along) if you don’t want to tip, don’t tip. No one is making you tip, I’m tired of hearing you all whine every fucking day, so if you whine I’ll whine deal? 2) OK this discussion is largely around US tipping culture. So I’m sorry I figured you had a stake in the discussion were talking about my bad. 3) the people at the register, the people cooking your food, and the porters. It’s really not that hard

You can take your whining about a service you don’t have to participate in somewhere else too, yet here you fucking are

I didn’t expect one of the things to carry over from reddit is the rabid anti tipping culture and abunch of people making up shit to justify their preferences.

I now have a job that gets tips, if someone doesn’t tip IDC, the overall tips are good and I don’t know the story of the person not tipping. When I give a funny look is when someone hits the no tip button and looks up at me like they’re waiting for some kind of response.

I don’t have time to care about your financial state, you all are just making up shit in your heads to justify shit to yourselves

That is horrifically illegal and you should have/should still sue
