Yo @VenmoSupport - Charity profiles have been hosed for days and all your support folks will say is, “the engineers are working on a fix but there is no ETA.” This is terrible: school is starting back up, we’re on our biggest fundraising season, we can’t use Venmo. HELP!

Trump promised to fix the economy. Biden is doing it. Trump promised to bring back manufacturing jobs. Biden has done it. Trump said he would lower illegal immigration. Biden has done it. Trump promised to lower unemployment. Biden has done it. Last election, I voted for Biden because he was running against Trump. This election I’m voting for Biden cause he’s getting the job done! #Biden2024 #BrianHopkinsforCongress

@Snowden I think you’re forgetting the the prosecution is a direct result of him refusing to return them to the National Archive when ordered to, as is the law (which he admits to breaking on tape in front of witnesses). In what other instance did this occur without prosecution?

All kidding aside, it's not wrong to say that the indictment of Donald Trump for mishandling classified documents is a case of selective prosecution. Spilled secrets are very much the currency of Washington, and Trump was not alone in splashing them around. He was just the least graceful. Still, it's hard to feel sorry for a man who had four years in the White House to reform that broken system—and instead left it in place to the detriment of the American public. He is caught within the same gears his own hands once turned.

@geooller @CherriDemars @mars22581 @sully_soph @RonFilipkowski You may have heard the term, “Florida Cracker,” before - this is a direct reference to cattle culture in the State.

@geooller @CherriDemars @mars22581 @sully_soph @RonFilipkowski Uhhhhhh, Florida has a long history of cattle drives and it’s a big part of the State’s economy.

@MrCooper I’m not sure why you think calling support after having a terrible experience with support would be helpful in any way @MrCooper. If the answer on Monday was “too bad” why would it be different today?

So, @MrCooper is the worst mortgage company I have ever done business with. We originally went with @QuickenLoans but they sold us to this terrible mess of a company almost immediately. Good luck ever removing PMI from your loan if you work with these scammers.

@rliumd Iceberg lettuce really has twi things going for it, it’s structure and it’s neutral flavor. A wedge salad gives a chef both a way to serve iceberg crisp and at maximum freshness and as a completely neutral vehicle for other flavors.

@DStan58 @CapitalGrille K

@will592 @CapitalGrille I'm out. You seem to miss the major point. The food was shit.

Had a pricey and average meal at a local place. $100 for 2, no drinks. The food was barely adequate. Wrote a review for all the sites. I think I'm going to email it to the mgr first, see what they say. What's your take?

@DStan58 @CapitalGrille Understood, but the two are inextricably intertwined. You can’t raise wages in the food service industry without charging customers more.

@will592 @CapitalGrille 2 un-related discussions. 1) what are fair and reasonable wages in the food service industry? they deserve a rise 2) When restaurants provide expensive meals that fall far short of both market standards and quality, what's the fair play for the consumer? I'm sticking w/#2 here.

@DStan58 @CapitalGrille I understand, I’m just saying that if we believe in a just society where people are paid appropriately die their labor then we probably need to reframe our idea of what a reasonable price for a meal at a restaurant is. $50 per meal probably needs to be the norm for that to happen

@will592 We have a regular w/food of a similar genre but 100% better quality and they charge $60.As I said,the food was not good. You charge $50+ per, the meal should be on-point. This was not. Not even close. I don't mind $200 per couple at @CapitalGrille because it's 100% always.

@MonicaLewinsky What is this “post-covid” world of which you speak?

so in a post-covid world, are we now allowed to say to strangers: please move the fuck away from me as you’re coughing?

PSA: I live 11 miles from the stadium where #SuperBowlLVII is going to take place in just under a week and it’s 70 degrees right now. Bring your summer clothes if you’re from the home of the #KansasCityChiefs or the #Eagles.

@Actual_TrashMan @acjuelich @byLizAllen @Ian__Ferg @ChrisRGibbs @sarahschauer PS they opened themselves up to a lawsuit by divulging medical information about an employee so I don’t want to hear it.

@will592 @acjuelich @byLizAllen @Ian__Ferg @ChrisRGibbs @sarahschauer A policy is a policy. If they changed it for one person they can be opened up to a lawsuit by other employees who want the same (who may have not been there nearly as long).

@Actual_TrashMan @acjuelich @byLizAllen @Ian__Ferg @ChrisRGibbs @sarahschauer So fucking what, every corporation I’ve ever worked at has “opened themselves up to a lawsuit” repeatedly. It’s not a big deal when it’s done to make a profit but it’s always the end of the world when it’s done in order to help an employee avoid financial ruin.

@FinisCarnis @jakep316 @matticusmaximus @sarahschauer Yep, 100%. Cost of doing business when humans are involved.

@jakep316 @matticusmaximus @sarahschauer And...just eat the cost of paying someone who isn't working?

@jakep316 @matticusmaximus @sarahschauer The fact that this doesn’t occur to some people is mind boggling but, somehow at the some time, isn’t surprising at all.

@matticusmaximus @sarahschauer The company should just extend the persons PTO, and not ask other workers to give theirs up

@jeff_spenner @acjuelich @byLizAllen @Ian__Ferg @ChrisRGibbs @sarahschauer “If the business was decent and cared about the humanity of its employees” FTFY

@acjuelich @byLizAllen @Ian__Ferg @ChrisRGibbs @sarahschauer The business isn’t donating, it’s allowing people to be charitable to their friends and coworkers. The business is just the bulletin board. If the business wanted to be charitable, it would just give them more PTO. Ppl so angry at anyone, geez

@acjuelich @byLizAllen @Ian__Ferg @ChrisRGibbs @sarahschauer 17. Fucking. Years. Jesus, there’s a middle ground between “business” and “charity.”

@byLizAllen @Ian__Ferg @ChrisRGibbs @sarahschauer It's a business, not a charity.
