I feel like everyone has had a bad experience with one of the major delivery services and just decides to shit on them. I've had packages busted by FedEx, usps, ups, that guy that drops off packages from his unmarked van. Like I get 97% of stuff okay, but 3% comes broken from them all.
My guess is he's using that statement to sidestep criticism of layoffs. I mean, is it wrong to take the long view? No. Does that mean they had to lay off people and put them in a precarious situation? Maybe, maybe not. But the explanation that sounds palatable.
It's because you're lying. You don't really love them. Your nose is growing.
That's insane. It sounds like ebay must have a toxic culture to let that happen.
This article is obnoxious to actually read. Its funny that these lazy companies of cheap products are trying to use ai to write their copy for them, im assuming to save a buck, and those are fun examples, but where is the part where the reporting puts this in the larger context of why this is happening? Why are these trypes of companies making these choices? What does that say about our shopping habits and the stuff we choose to buy? Idk any actual meaningful/intresting question beyond look at this things that exists on the internet. If its in there I glossed over it because they leaned into their shtick too hard.
I'm trying to imagine what someone would use it for/want it for. It seems juat like more plastic crap for the landfill.
A girlfriends life revolves around home, they have homework, home room and they run away from home to live with their 38 year old boyfriend.
This kind of stuff is why I come here. Great post.
I would also add that the capitalist class loves to promote the idea if America as the greatest nation on earth because that storyline benefits them. They've already won the game and are benefiting from our current system. They don't want it to change.
If we admit we have shortcomings--large gap in wealth equality, lack of accessible and affordible health services, piss poor public transportation, unaffordable child care paired with living costs so large 2 incomes are required, poor school funding, pervasive gun violence, and Policing that emphasizes violence, just to name a few-- then we are also acknowedging that we have to change things. Why would those who greatly benefit from our current system want change?
Found this mildly interesting in a world of slick Conde Nast publications.
You know, whatever it takes to get people to act. Sometimes it'd something dumb that motivates prople.
