ShaggySnacks,

Milk is for babies. When you grow up you have to drink beer.

The House of Representatives is only needed if there is a law on the books that says there can only be 9 Justices on the Supreme Court.

If there is no law, then yeah. Only need the Senate to change the amount of justices.

I would love it if there was a law about it as it would make it slightly harder for bad faith actors to expand the Court on the grounds of “The other side got to do it, so we get to do it too!” Aka Republicans.

ShaggySnacks,

Don’t worry Katanji is a black women. Black women are quite used to be completely ignored in society.

US House votes to force weapons shipments to Israel, rebuking Biden (www.reuters.com)

The Republican-led U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill on Thursday that would force President Joe Biden to send weapons to Israel, seeking to rebuke the Democrat for delaying bomb shipments as he urges Israel to do more to protect civilians during its war with Hamas....

ShaggySnacks,

America and overthrowing governments

ShaggySnacks,

I am serious and don’t call me Shirely.

ShaggySnacks,

Be careful of insulting the Heathers. They are one the most powerful cliques on Lemmy.

ShaggySnacks,

I too have an internal monologue. I was high on mushrooms and I thought to myself “What would it be like not have an inner monologue?” Then I had an existential crisis on top of an already emotional workout trip.

ShaggySnacks,

You can be a trained retail worker in a few hours in most cases. Same with many farming jobs. Same with working the line at fast food

Retail workers have to deal with irate customers, develop product knowledge, and how to sell items. Fast food workers need to learn how to work as a team, make the food at a consist quality, and juggle multiple orders at once.

As for farm workers, if they are working with animals: how to read the animals for their behavior, treat minor injuries of animals, and how to manage animals.

I will agree that all labor deserve a living wage.

Pink and blue only became gender coded because corporations wanted to sell more merchandise.

“In America by the 1890s and the early 20th century, manufacturers attempted to sell more children’s and infants’ clothes by color-coding them,” she said. Some manufacturers branded pink for boys and blue for girls, and vice versa.

Until then, everyone wore blue and pink.

“If you look back, little boys in the 18th century wore blue and pink, and grown-up men wore blue and pink, and ladies and little girls wore blue and pink,” Steele said.

The complicated gender history of pink

Purple is a wicked color because it’s the color of royalty.

Tyrian Purple was associated with the rank of royalty in the ancient civilisations of Rome, Japan, Persia, Egypt and Constantinople, dating back as far as the 16th century BC. But how did it come to be the stamp of everything imperial? For a start, purple was first sourced in Phoenicia (the name translates as ‘purple land’), an ancient city located in modern-day Lebanon. Producing purple dye was a laborious process – and was subsequently expensive – though the method of extracting it was less glamorous. The dye stemmed from the foul-smelling mucous gland of a marine mollusk. As a result, the term purple owes itself to the Latin word for a purple shellfish, ‘purpura’. A time-consuming process saw these sea snails dried and boiled to make Tyrian dye – many of the creatures were needed to dye even a small segment of fabric, but the benefits meant that the intensity of the colour was long-lasting and not prone to fade.

Purple: an enchanting pigment reserved for royals and rulers

ShaggySnacks,

Damn, a self-burn.

ShaggySnacks,

When there are enough corporations to fit a boardroom table. Competition doesn’t exist.

It’s well within reason to think that many of Executives all attend the same events, have overlapping social circles, and moved around positions between the corporations.

All it takes is one company to get away with higher prices for the other companies follow suit.

US airlines are suing the Biden administration over a new rule to make certain fees easier to spot (apnews.com)

U.S. airlines are suing to block the Biden administration from requiring greater transparency over fees that the carriers charge their passengers, saying that a new rule would confuse consumers by giving them too much information during the ticket-buying process....

ShaggySnacks,

The C Suite bonuses and shareholders.

ShaggySnacks,

I don’t know about worse. Make it a public spectacle, sell tickets, take bets, and cheer on your favorite blood thirsty politician.

We can all have popcorn when we watch “FIGHT NIGHT IN CONGRESS!”

ShaggySnacks,

Every accusation is a confession.

The confession for this accusation is that the Court system is stacked with Conservative judges to push a Conservative agenda.

ShaggySnacks,

That dude look like he is having an orgasm.

ShaggySnacks,

When I dived back into Animaniacs a few years ago, I was very happy that the episodes that I watched had aged really well.

Edit: Words are important for context

ShaggySnacks,

Cause the entire stock market is based on feels.

ShaggySnacks,

I feel like this on the path to Eldritch Horror Breakfast.

ShaggySnacks,

One flop and they’re axed?

I think this comes from the mindset that if someone isn’t generating immediate success. It’s time to fire them. We see this a lot in sports. Team off to a terrible start with a new coach? Fire the coach and start trading players.

It really highlights how organizations see people as disposable. If people don’t make line go brrr, out the door they go.

ShaggySnacks,

“And that’s how, with a few minor adjustments, you can turn a regular gun into five guns.”

ShaggySnacks,

Stone soup is amazing!

ShaggySnacks,

Mmmmmmmm, 50,000 potato chips.

ShaggySnacks,

I’m pretty sure the Volanco God is going to be upset with us for using such a poor, excuse of a a sacrifice.

ShaggySnacks,

Profit line must always go brrrrr!

ShaggySnacks,

Don’t let the British Europeans off the hook. Their hands were just as dirty.
