Mostly another nonsense "no wage, only spend" article

But, it is good to have mindful consumer habits. One tip I try to follow when I want to make a superfluous big purchase is, once I decide I want something, I wait 1 day for every $100 it costs. If I still want the item after X days, I might buy it, but often, the novelty is worn off, and I don't want it anymore. Or, it's something egregiously expensive and it'll take 30+ days of thinking about it, and that's just too much money for a toy

Banana discourse

When I worked closing shifts at Starbucks, the dickhead managers wouldn't let us take home "expired" foods from the fridge (sandwich trays etc). Thought it was bullshit then, sounds like bullshit now

For those who didn't click but maybe saw the video, these union reps were caught on camera hitting Dr Ahmad in the head with "we love Joe" signs at the convention

Focus on "most blowouts" over "roughest"

Thinking about the rageposters in the school shooter threads - what do we actually think could be done to prevent these?

Gun control is a dead end in this country (ask :beto:) and unless you went for complete banning of all guns (which should be "frustrated, by force if necessary" ), there's really no way to stop some unhinged kid from grabbing Dad's gun and going wild. I guess significant punishments for unsecured guns would be a deterrent for parents, but a determined person can defeat a cable lock in a few minutes.

I guess proper mental health services and modeling of how to seek out help before they act on it.

I agree SOMETHING needs to be done, but the lack of solutions being proposed is frustrating. There's no getting the 300 million guns in America"back in the tube of toothpaste"
