“Let’s have tacos tonight.” “Nah Im not feeling tacos.” “OK let’s get Chinese food.” “Nah i don’t want Chinese food.” "…ok… let’s make soup. " “Nah I don’t want soup tonight.”

How does farming or the trades interest you?

It has worked well for them. They’re able to produce crazy amounts of electricity. I don’t disagree either that the U.S. could “put their foot on the gas” but only if it were going towards something like producing solar panels for every house, or building EV factories, stuff like that, to help us use less fossil fuels.

But what does the amount of CO2 by China or any other country matter for the increase in CO2 by the U.S.? Yes China has more overall but that’s not an excuse for us to start emitting more, you know?

And a lot of them require an address or p.o. box which not everyone has. And deadlines if you miss by a day you just get denied. A lot of government assistance in the U.S. is terrible and complex and time consuming. I just assume charities are pretty varied state to state so I didn’t want to bring those up, where every state has SOME kind of program.

I actually used to work for my states unemployment office for a few years. The help I could actually give over the phone was minimal at best, another department did reviews and made decisions, I could really only give updates which 9 times out of 10 was “its still pending”. To the people asking what they should do while they wait I would say “Family, friends, churches, charities”. At least its better than saying “there is nothing you can do.”

I just have such a hard time accepting that “we just have to accept whatever conditions and whatever pay our empyers offer cuz we’re lucky they even offer us that.” Or getting upset a pregnant lady wants to take time off work cuz now she isn’t bringing money into the family.

I have, it took a few weeks, I know it’s not instant… better than just giving up and not even trying tho, no? Even if it’s only a couple hundred a month.

I know some people do not have anywhere or anyone to turn to, I tried to mention that in my original post… maybe most people are that alone.

I have been fortunate in life, sorry if that “reeks” to you. I guess it just sounds like everyone has been “defeated by the system” or whatever, and we all just have to accept what little we have and consider ourselves lucky to even have that and you’re on your own, that’s just how it is, etc etc.

Very true, especially if it’s cold. Idk. It just upsets me thinking about what people have to endure i guess. It also sucks that their sacrifice for enduring is for the benefit of Besos.

Assuming zero public assistance or friends or family or charity is available? Completely on your own? Of course some people are in that spot but I have a hard time believing the average person has nobody in their life they could ask for some kind of help.

Is the solution is to just accept your working conditions? I also have a hard time seeing that as the solution.

I know this is an over simplification, but wouldn’t being unemployed be better than working for Amazon? They’re so over-the-top cruel to their employees, between piss bottles, tornado deaths, and now this?

I heard a while back there was a leaked internal memo Amazon was worried they might run out of workers since turnover is so high.

I guess some people dont mind/can tolerate those brutal conditions, so why would Amazon care to improve things?

Holy shit $16 / mo?? Did I see that right?? Wow. Just last year my partner and I really considered getting premium cuz we have some YouTubers we’ve been watching for like a decade. But ultimately decided against it cuz it was like $8.99 / mo.

Except I never said you were factually incorrect, since that seems to be the most important thing for you to get out of this exchange.

Yeah but nobody would watch it

Say the line!!

“That isn’t REAL captialism”

Lmao

They signed a 20-year lease 10 years ago so they feel like they have to use the building.

Sorry teachers there’s just no room in the budget for raises. Oh and we’re adding 10 more students to all of your classes too.

Do you get paid by billionaires to simp for them or are you just doing it for free?

The future of this planet is a desert wasteland. They can rule over the fucking ashes. Nothing beside remains.

I was more an AskJeevs guy myself
