Hey it wasn’t all bad in 2020. The restaurant I worked at closed and I made more money on unemployment for 2 years than I ever had working in kitchens.
It don’t matter. None of this matters.

Relatable. I literally have a bad back because of trying to solo move an old TV in the 90s
That is not relevant to the subject at hand, because the cost of living and social support systems vary so widely between the US and the rest of the world. Without knowing anything else about your locale, I can only speculate that your restaurant industry is either far more exploitative than the US and keeps prices low by underpaying workers, or the people who profit from the businesses are slightly less greedy and allow a more generous portion of the budget to be allotted for pay.
Different things are different, I’m talking about the United States
Tips may have been that way a hundred years ago but I’ve been in the restaurant industry in the US for over 15 years, and for the duration tips have been used as a means to offload labor costs to the customer. They are not optional for the majority of people who work for tips, they are the difference between paying bills and not.
The practice is antiquated and should be completely removed as the standard way to compensate restaurant workers. But the thing that anti tippers always seem to miss is that the labor costs will still be there and the owners are not going to take it out of their cut. The menu prices will per force go up when companies get rid of tips. The same people will be complaining about that just as loudly, I’m willing to bet.
As I said in another comment, it’s a bad system, but if you don’t tip, you’re a bad person.
It’s a bad system but you are a bad person if you don’t tip.
You’re right, the term has taken on that meaning by now. It’s just relatively short compared to the multi hour video essays I tend to consume the most.
Mostly short form explainers about interesting subjects, presented in a sort of breathless British TV presenter style. Like a young Attenborough but less posh. Pretty good channel.
There’s not really a general association with fuckwits, the whole thing stems from Apple phones using a different color for Android users in a text, because they have a bunch of proprietary bullshit in iMessage that doesn’t work on Android. It’s a meme but also I’m sure some people take it quite seriously.
Edit: Apple users are fuckwits though
Thanks for mentioning trash guides. As I mentioned in my other reply, it helped me get everything set up easily.
Thanks for this! I didn’t know about symlinks so with the help of the trash guides site the other poster mentioned I was able to get it set up.
It’s not perfect and it’ll be a minor chore to refresh the libraries but it’s better than it was.
Also, in the process I discovered that I am dumb, and I overlooked the “mixed movies and TV” option when adding my library before. I just added the same one twice, once as movies and once as TV. It worked for Plex but obviously caused issues in jellyfin. Doing it the correct way also gave me the no frills directory structure style that I was looking for. I’m using the symlinks for now but if I get tired of the upkeep my friends will just have to deal with the slightly less aesthetic version.
It also semi consciously feeds into the misogynistic trope of calling/implying that men are feminine as an insult. It’s just a bad look all around
As a fellow chipmunks hater, I would be remiss if I didn’t tell you to check out chipmunks on 16 speed. Truly a mind melting experience.
I’m sorry, you’re welcome.
I believe the implication is that these people are part of a psy-op from Russia. It was a common theme of online discourse during Trump’s presidency, with some decent factual evidence to back it up iirc. Many pro trump accounts on Twitter were suspected of being operatives, or even just bots, for example.
It’s kinda stale as a reference, but there is still a significant chance that these kinds of accounts still exist and engage in spreading disinfo.
It’s a real photograph from the aftermath of hurricane Katrina in New Orleans. It’s a racist joke based on a real tragedy, making it double shitty.
Here’s the original
The point is that the teacher is non binary and forced to choose an honorific. They wanted to use a neologism because there isn’t an established term and they were fired because of bigotry. It doesn’t really matter if the term makes sense to you or anyone else, it was their choice.
Your comments reek of the same smug shittiness of people who throw a fit about they\them pronouns not being “grammatically correct” when singular they has been in use for ages.
Non binary people exist, and if they are required by their job to use a formal title, they should have one that recognizes who they are.
Please explain how you’d know how to pronounce Mrs as missus\mizzes without someone explaining it? It’s no more confusing than that archaic bullshit.
Liking ska punk
But south park once compared being intolerant of intolerance to being like a Nazi, so checkmate you fool, you unbelievable cretin. I am very smart.
To be fair, (spoilers for the show) it was the bad place where you couldn’t swear
