‘Anti-American sentiment’…

You stupid fuckers, the bigger problem is the Anti-McDonalds sentiment that’s everywhere, because your food is shit, your prices are outrageous, your restaurants are fake and ugly, and you don’t give a flying fuck about your customers or your employees!

Aww, did Elmo not get the memo about how Tesla are planning to DOGE his sorry ass? Did he only discover it via the media? Now he knows how all those federal employees feel! Not that he’s capable of empathy or life lessons.

Oh God, please not Newsom! The only thing that two-faced, opportunistic, spineless shit heel deserves is to be tarred and feathered!

Ooh, he’d better watch out or he’ll be on the receiving end of a luke-warm letter of dissatisfaction from Chuck Schumer.

Same here. It’s a better platform in several ideological ways to Bluesky, but the initial hype seems to have died off a bit and it’s pretty quiet there.

I’m really hoping it can take off though. I would love it to surge in popularity and become the biggest social media app/site of that type. I guess part of that is being the change you wish for in the world.

It sounds like they were two different incidents.

The same trash, but now in smaller portion sizes for more money! Great, eh!

The ones around me barely even employ any front-facing staff, so they also aren’t providing as many jobs to the local economy. And their seating is uncomfortable. All around just a horrible, overpriced experience for shite food.

I’m in the same boat as you: I only go there once a year for a school fund-raiser because my kids really want to. There’s not even anything I find appealing to eat there, so I don’t usually get anything.

I second Tinidril’s nomination. Go get 'em, buddy!

And the illiterate yokels in 12 months time: “Tariff?! That sounds like one of them thar a-rab names!!”

That would be hilarious, honestly.

“ThEy’Re BoTh ThE sAmE!!1!”

Not this idiotic argument again! The Democrats are definitely flawed as a political party. They have many large blindspots like this one. But they are miles away on a number of key issues from the GOP. And if you don’t see that then you are part of the problem that got us into this clusterfuck.

I hope this is a billboard on the Canadian side of the border that’s pointing towards the US.

My unsolicited advice? Don’t feed the troll any more. Your summary on this post was very clear and understandable, and makes sense. The person you are arguing with is either trolling, being deliberately obtuse, or is just plain stupid. I’m assuming it’s the first of those three options. But who knows.

From the interviews I’ve been seeing, at least some of them voted against Trump due to concerns about bullshit like this. I expect the majority did vote for him, in which case yes, karma’s a bitch. But a) we shouldn’t be treating them as a single voting block that all vote the same way, and b) regardless of the schadenfreude we get watching the Trump supporters among them freaking out now, there are grave knock-on effects for consumers looming - including those consumers who didn’t vote for Trump.

Because there’s a core of about 37-39% of the electorate who will support him no matter what he does because he has become an integral part of their identity. And disagreeing with him will cause them to go through an existential crisis.

Orange soda is very different from pure orange.

Extra tip: use pulpy pure orange so you get little bits floating around in the brown drink. It adds extra texture. It looks absolutely disgusting, but it tastes great.

Half pure orange juice and half cola.

What a comeback! Fantastic result! Hopefully we can give Barcelona a pummeling.

Remarkable promotion run by Wrexham. Three promotions in as many seasons is insane. But this talk of them going straight up to the PL next season is kind of absurd. Even if they managed it, without massive investment (much more than McElhenny and Reynolds could provide) they would go straight back down, probably harder than Southampton did this season. It would be better for them to take a few seasons’ pause in the Championship and find their feet.

Predictably, the spuds are being put to the sword by Liverpool. Joke of a club. They should go back to playing cricket, because they suck at football.

Ah well. There are definitely worse clubs who could be beating us to the title. And Liverpool have deserved it this season, honestly. Hopefully next season we’ll be back with a stronger, deeper squad and have less injuries, and be able to finish top.
