bionicjoey,

I was going to say that there’s hope yet for humanity. But then I realized that the books category probably includes doujins

bionicjoey,

Fuck tipping. American tipping culture enables employers to get away with paying their hospitality service industry employees starvation wages. By giving a big tip you are just telling the employer “Don’t worry about paying your employees a living wage. I got you fam.”

Obviously I still tip depending on where I am, but the minimum amount that is considered socially acceptable.

bionicjoey,

Maybe you shouldn’t take a job that pays $3/hour and then blame other people for why you get paid so little. My brother in Christ, you accepted the job.

bionicjoey,

I literally stated my preferred approach in the last sentence of that comment.

bionicjoey,

Honestly I think you should re-examine your perspective on charities. Just because they have some amount of administrative overhead doesn’t mean that they are always worse than simply giving money to a random person. That administrative overhead probably helps them operate at a scale that allows them to help far more people than a smaller organization could.

Like, if I give money to a local food bank, that would feed far more needy people than if I went to my local restaurant and bought a bunch of take-out and then went down to a homeless camp and gave random people the take-out. Because food banks have supply chain connections and economies of scale that allow them to buy a lot more food for every dollar than you can get at a restaurant.

Gary Larson is like Rumpelstiltskin, because he can spin hay into comedy gold
