@_B133D @5149jamesli No. I will eat what I buy with the proceeds of my work.
I'm not a leftist just waiting for handouts.
English

@TheLaurenChen My rule of thumb is 10% per hour over a certain amount, say $250. Under that, I'll just tip based on service comparable to the bill. Also that's just for a simple reservation - if its an event or there are special expectations, then thats factored in.
English
Assuming these people were at the restaurant for 2 hours
A $60 tip means this server made $30/hour off this ONE TABLE
Is that not enough for a waiter to make?
Does being a waiter really need to be a $150/hour job?
The entitlement behind a lot of tipping culture is insane

@StevenStehling @5149jamesli Says the one who "just wont take another second of this gosh darn MeToo shenanigans!" You will eat what is given to you, sprog.
English

@_B133D @5149jamesli You're an idiot.
You may have adopted that idiocy. You certainly talk like a leftist. Don't project your nonsense on others.
English

@hiscoraline None. There are a ton of ideas you will only be exposed to through literature, and if you are not being exposed to it but others are - there is opportunity for others to leverage that ignorance over you. It is a simple fact.
English

@drhossamsamy65 If you notice behavior, consider it as a ritual and then consider what that ritual expresses. The drag aspect is interesting, but if we pull back the glam (slay queen) we find ritualized power and dominance. Their intention is subjugation of the form, not exploration.
English

@coexistinc @cushbomb There is invariably a knot of confounding factors driving Conservative psychology - but reduced to its most basic tenet, it is resistance to change. And "change" encompasses Human progress. If pursued hard enough, we end up limiting progress.
English

@coexistinc @cushbomb Borrowing from the Hegelian dialectic - Empathy is the same mechanism that allows us to imagine problems from different perspectives and to synthesize new approaches to the problems. So while it is an attack on a specific psychology, it harms problem solving across social fabric.
English

This new War on Empathy differs from the zen fascism @cushbomb pointed out from the first Trump admin. This chapter of the War is less about enjoying the bounty of empire and more about the coming scarcity at the end of empire and why you'd be a fool to share with your neighbors
English

@vapor_waif It's supposed to make you feel like they are augmented super humans, so the illusion you won't die if you join remains strong.
English

this is the problem with the US defense industry. They invest millions into some really cool irreplaceable gadget meanwhile the soldier wearing this expensive helmet gets blown up by a soviet artillery shell duct-taped to a DGI or a shahed with a recycled moped engine

The Anduril technology that lets soldiers see through walls.

@Mageba_wav Every human has a biological drive to reproduce.
Every human also has a brain they use for higher reasoning.
Just because your body tells you to do something doesn't mean you have to do it.
English

@StevenStehling @5149jamesli You can say it as many times as you want. Individuals have already internalized it, increasing awareness of power dynamics and reexamining what we consider acceptable behavior. Hell, work environments are reinforcing it through HR punishment and training.
You are blind.
English

@_B133D @5149jamesli We are done.
If morons want to keep trying that scam, that's on them. We won't be entertaining that bullshit anymore.
English

@StevenStehling @5149jamesli MeToo has been internalized. You are blind if you think "we're done with the MeToo era".
English

@5149jamesli No.
She can take the allegations to the police and the matter can be adjudicated in the courts. If a "victim" tries to make a spectacle in the media, I will always assume they are lying. We're done with the MeToo era. Talk to prosecutors, not television cameras.
English

@therobbieharvey Like clockwork, another psycho Trump supporter getting off on harassing the public.
English

@RMBee @Metaworldonline "You're not poor if you just recontextualize your poverty."
Cool. Genius. Superb.
English

@Metaworldonline We're not poor if you compare us to most of human history.
English

We've lost complete interest in EVERYTHING.

Just picked up my son from elementary school and was blown away that ZERO parents or kids were aware of the Artemis II launch. Have we lost complete interest in space travel?
English

@KrystalWolfyAlt Why do you think every MAGA loves buying "America merch"? They are greedy little piggies that think if they can shovel enough in, then they will become what they consume.
English

@KrystalWolfyAlt If you read Edmund Burke, it becomes painfully obvious that American Conservatism was a weak injection point for the Elite Capitalists to sink their teeth into America. Philosophically, the Conservative movement has basically been subsumed by Corporate Capitalists.
English
They aren't even conserving that, what are conservatives actually conserving?
Dont Skate on Me!@skate_dont
English

@Hitchslap1 It's partly the Dunning-Kruger effect. Middlings who realize there are people below them but don't realize there are people above them.
