The US sees an item not referred to by a corporate brand name, and wouldn’t have it.

They’re not alone in it, but their suseptiblity to macro-marketing can only be described as “American level”.

I loved it in the tropics. 40C day, then right on 4pm, BAM!!! It’s 25C, there’s an epic lightning show, 10 mins later it’s gone, the roads are steaming, and a nice balmy 28C night kicks off.,

That’s not disturbing; that’s completely fucked up.

If they want to buy data to use for AI, they can pay someone to license their voice for its use. What they’ve done is no different to bootlegging, but it’s worse because it’s personally identifiable data.

You’re confusing the Muslimics with the Islamians.

Imagine what happrns to a nation struggling with a 4.2% unemployment rate if they suddenly fed almost 20% of the population to alligators. Mexico would ironically face massive immigration and refugee issues as the economy and society up north collapsed on itaelf until adjusted over the next decade,

I’ve had someone recognise I’m a drummer because of the way my leg bounce made the bench move. Apparently my anxiety ticks groove.

So that’s why the seat’s wet some times…

Warmth, protection, hygiene.

If you were born the only person on earth, you would eventually have something like socks on your own accord. This is function, not social. They wouldn’t be Xmas themed though, since no society exists to have invented Xmas and to show off your socks to.

Social constructs are, by definition, ideas or concepts.

Replying to wrong comment?

You’ll have to explain otherwise, since it makes no sense based on what I said.

I don’t know what the social aspect is apart from how the socks appear, but this isn’t why they exist.

Edit: Damn. Some of you are threatened by not knowing what a social construct is but really want to argue about socks instead of asking DDG so you can understand wtf is going on before leaving a comment.

I’d be proud of this shit show, OP 🤣

Yeah McDonald’s is purely for on the road. Other food in its price range is leagues above. There’s better options on the road too, but McDonald’s is so small and minimal, it’s easy to eat with one hand and steer with the other; no mess.

Yeah, in my experience they’re underpaid and cop abuse all day. There’s a lot of tears, sick days, and anxiety in customer support, all of it young, much of it abusing substances to get through the day.

The kids aren’t paid anywhere near enough to deal with your attitude, nor should they be expected to. They aren’t the business; they’re the poor sods that have to work for them.

Bill Ackman, a billionaire hedge fund manager who has backed President Donald Trump in the past, on Thursday pledged to use his money to bankroll a challenger to Mamdani in the general election.

Case in point.

Meanwhile the unemployment rate continues to be troublingly low, begging the question, “If not for immigration, who’s going to fill the new fancy All-American manufacturing industries?”

Things aren’t so bad if you avoid doom scrolling and comparing yourself to others. Almost any other time was worse to be alive in.

That’s fine. Being the fastest at getting from A to B using just legs is rarely a deal breaker. Though, you’d have probably tried harder if the trophy was called the “Least likely to die in an open field of zombies trophy”.

You’d win plenty of trophies if they made an event for the stuff you’re best at.

“ball of fire”

Haha, no no. You threw down with a gigantic source of cell destroying radiation. The fire did no harm.

It felt worse. Getting a recognition certificate or a white ribbon for coming fourth was a total bummer to my care-factor for participating. Kick a kid while they’re down and they’re not likely to be motivated.

Based on a dogs shape and coat, you can pretty easily determine the breed families in it. It’s important to know since dog breeds are much more diverse due to their history with humans around the world—most have jobs bred into them. So it’s still good to know if your dog has breeding in it that thrives on exercise or fetch jobs or that sort of thing. Most of those little dogs are for hunting small vermin and are savage fuckers, for example.

Cats it’s mostly one size fits all with a random roll on personality stats.
