Warm some sour cream, mix it with enough yellow curry powder that it starts to look a bit like light mustard. That sauce on top of white rice got me through undergrad, and it's also good on food that costs money

"Would you like to make a donation to our corporate tax bill?"

Never give em a cent. They make enough money to donate themselves if they want the tax benefits of charity, and you can always donate directly to charity without it being laundered through some corporation that is literally only doing it because they get to claim YOUR charity on their taxes that way.

My biological father did that shit every time we went to a restaurant while I was growing up. Then he'd usually try to get them to flirt with me, starting from when I was like 8. I still hate going to restaurants with table service decades later

Surely they'll forget about bread if the circus is entertaining enough, right?

The coca cola dispenser didn't even need to be edited. I've used that stuff as a solvent for engine block corrosion more times than I can count

Same but I still keep the gun around in case any printers sneak back in

Thanks! Trying right now to figure out how to ask my former advisors for letters of rec without explaining my motivations, which heavily imply that I think they're in denial about their work being "make tools for fascists"

Was working on a PhD in CS focused on industrial cybersecurity, though current events involving the three letter agency that funded my research lead to me crashing out and now I'm trying to get into law school and do immigration law. Far too frail and pasty to buy a farm though

Huge incel vibes. It implies women have no agency and implies by omission that men do. Based on the first page or so of words, at least. I lost my will to engage with it after that

Good on you. It takes courage to admit to something like that and to move in a direction you believe is right despite your upbringing. I'm in a situation with some similarities to yours, and while im still coming to terms with things and not ready to talk about it yet I want you to know that you posting your story and owning your mistakes is inspiring

What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent fascist meal? Get your hands off my florida!

Id argue its still valid. Given that the people in charge (US perspective) dont give a shit about us beyond our productivity, $2tril of economic damage is probably exactly the same to them as being hit by a nuke. Honestly it might even hurt the parasite class more than a nuke because at least with a nuke they'd have pretense to go to war over it
