Fast food's too expensive even without delivery expenses these days. Makes me sad.

I went to Chick Fila to get the pimento cheese and chicken sandwich.
I got the combo. Comes with fries and a drink.
$13 and change.
Got 2 double cheeseburgers and a coke at mcds, $12
That used to be less than $6. Like 5 years ago.
It's more and more expensive to fund bigots these days
There's no ethical consumption under capitalism. Let's not judge others by the food they eat, that doesn't do anything but divide us further.
That phrase applies more to things you can't reasonably stop consuming, like plastics.
There are a few exceptions where there's one capitalist producer who is significantly more divisive than the alternatives, and switching costs are extremely low.
Might as well buy blood diamonds and clothes made by child slaves. No ethical consumption derp durrrr hurrrr I so smart
Dude I just spent like 17$ on subway
It's the worst!
+$10 for pretty much every meal now. I guess fast food is trying to curb American’s fast food addiction by pricing them out of it.

How the hell do people afford this lifestyle.
They don't. That's why there's souvh credit card debt
i don't know why people need to shame each other for succumbing to the desire to Purchase when our entire society is designed to encourage it
While at the same time telling us to stop buying daily coffees and making avocado toast. Just another way to fuck us up.
It's not so much trying to shame, it's more like when one moth is telling his friend the other moth not to go into the light.
Because getting into debt for treats and shitty mcnuggies is bad (?)

If db0 let an actual advertiser on our instance I'm sure they'd be nuclear pissed
Anybody can post here, even advertisers.
I'm aware. Judging by OPs history and the fact they're dbzer0, a piracy and anarchy instance, I doubt it's uber would want their name associated bvvqqqqq. I was mostly joking anyway.

I checked the other day and McDonalds was charging $3.49 per hash brown on one of the delivery apps.
That was as far as I got before boiling water for oatmeal.
Thanks for the ad i guess
i can't tell if i'm too old now or what but over the last year i've gotten insanely radicalized against corporatism and can't stand seeing brand names anywhere. i remember sometimes i'd use them in normal posts, but reading others do it really makes it sound like an ad
The fast food worker seeing a door dash order pop up on the screen 5 minutes before closing
You can setup availability times in the merchant portal. If this has happened to you, it's because of your shitty management.

Why not double the price of your order and get it slower

Paying triple is good enough reason for me. Haven't used it since the lockdown.

Waaaiiit a minute here. What exactly are you planning to eat?
The thought of giving Uber any money usually loses me my appetite anyway
And even if i somehow give in theres no world where im affording it
Uber Eats is not worth the money anymore. I haven't ordered in 6th months and haven't looked back.
If you don't have one already you should get a slow cooker. Super easy to make all sorts of meals, just chuck some stuff in it in the morning and come back some time later to a delicious hot meal.
Good slow cooker beans and rice recipe here: https://coopcancook.com/creamy-crock-pot-red-beans-recipe/
Ah yes, I'd love to watch a car drive to different restaurants and deliver to other houses while my food is getting cold on their passenger seat instead of just getting it myself. Fuck these delivery apps, it's always more trouble than it's worth.
source? for a friend obv
That style can only be Milo Manara.
thanks my friend will appreciate it
The lady in the picture doesn't look like she's charging anything.
