Thought Slime goes by Mildred.....
But they're kind of self-aware, so I think it's supposed to make them more off-putting.
At risk of looking dumb, what's up with all the posts about the JFK assassination today?
The other article I linked here in the comments says they've heard rumors it was a DDoS attack. Nothing about potential links, but I have seen the PlayStation thing all over social media posts about it.
These fucking conservatives have got me about to do a book burning protest with the Bible
Good idea. I'm in A grade. I forgot about that mechanic.
Fun fact: Redbox is operated by Chicken Soup for the Soul. I almost got hired by them but they screwed me over after I had already resigned from my previous position.
For whole blood, I've only ever been given a t-shirt. For plasma alone though, it was purely dependent on your weight and, therefore, how much they can take from you in the one session. I'm a tiny dude who barely weighed enough to qualify and got about $80 a couple years ago. It's honestly not worth it at all, but if you're broke it's easier than many other options. The place was full of the "undesirables" of society because of that. It drained me emotionally, seeing how blatantly exploitative it is.
Edit to add: these plasma donations can be done with a tighter window between them too, so the people who were always short on cash were in there every 2 weeks.
Edit again: I forgot that that was an introductory deal where they give you an extra $40, so it was actually $40 for me. Overweight patients could get around $70-$80.
They're only saying they're building a god in order to convince angel investors to keep pouring money into a new technology that has yet to prove that it can even so much as turn a profit on the queries they're being paid to process. Meta may not have embraced the AI hype as much as Google and Twitter, but let's not forget their stupid little stint just two years ago with the Metaverse. Maybe Zuck just has to tell himself he's not an evil antagonist from an action movie, it's those other guys!
Surely this decision will be a net positive for the average American and won't be used as part of a malicious scheme to widen the wealth gap. /s
