For most of the first 15 minutes of "Indiana Jones and the kingdom of the crystal skull" the bit is we're looking for something that's "highly magnetic" and we get to watch how magnetic it is

Then, as soon as it's time to point guns at each other, suddenly no more magnetism and no explanation for the magnetism going away

Oops, the 9-0 "employer must show that the burden of granting a religious accommodation would result in substantial increased costs" decision is not the same as the 6-3 "economic discrimination against gay people is fine" decision these are two separate cases that I've mixed up all week

You probably can't see this as it's on Twitter but it's an adoring tribute to and the turnout to his meeting in Sth Carolina. HOW can they still support him?

@Conville @oldrawgabbit

I hear you that they're extremely shitty in the same way that Fox is not news or journalism

And they compete for the same market share - OAN is Fox's main competitor

So, unfortunately, if Fox is a (corrupt) "mainstream news network" with (propagandist) "news correspondents", so is OAN

“I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Mastodon, is in fact, The Microblog Fediverse, or as I've recently taken to calling it, The Blogiverse. The Fediverse is not a social media service unto itself, but rather is an ensemble of federated servers that are used for web publishing made useful by the ActivityPub protocol, as defined by W3C.”

This is how you people sound when you try to correct people who use the word Mastodon incorrectly. Please stop.

@Mira You're right but isn't the birdsite DDoSing itself right now? Like they can't go back

And, if they waited until this weekend to leave Twitter, they only left because the fascist hellscape they prefer is literally broken and they have no place else to go

Myth some big brother or sister probably told you: "Don't worry about the wax, apples naturally grow wax"

The Truth: apples do grow wax naturally but it gets washed off while being processed so produce producers spray them with shellac

Another for your "sounds like satire but is actually just ordinary capitalism" pile:

If you tip your Pizza Hut driver too much when placing an online order, they take the order away from one of the drivers on the shift and they give it to Doordash

As a bike messenger who has left the shop with 7+ individual orders in his bag, this is absolute scum behavior

@Kyleric

So far starters, it turns out when you pay people too much they get sick of your shit and leave. Then by using DoorDash as flex labor they can have fewer drivers on the shift overall. They're probably taking a percentage of the tip to pay DoorDash directly for the service

You keep workers insecure and overworked, they stay on that treadmill

The only time we've ever impeached a Supreme Court justice was in 1805

It was for corrupt, partisan decision-making

Just like Trump, he was acquitted in the Senate

If any movement against the Court takes up steam, the Senate will be the Boss Battle, and when they acquit maybe we'll finally figure it out

They're rioting even harder in France

In the US: The Supreme Court just ignored the principles of law to decide 3 cases in favor of fascists and against The People of the United States

They're off the rails. They've already gone too far, and they're just going to keep doing it. What are we going to do about it?

To decide affirmative action, the court had to ignore literally all of the data comparing affirmative action states with states that banned affirmative action

To decide the student loan case, they had to ignore that the state that brought the case didn't have standing - the very first and most basic and most important element of a lawsuit

For the right to discriminate, all nine justices have "sided" with a claim that they knew was fictitious in every way

pleaseclap,
@pleaseclap@urbanists.social avatar

I said all this yesterday but I woke up and it's all still true

What are we going to do about it?

@pleaseclap@urbanists.social avatar

They're not just "choosing a side": they're ignoring the basics of law - the opinions they're writing don't hold water. They're fever dreams.

For starters, the state that sued in the student loan case didn't have standing. The court chooses to ignore that so it can rule against Biden and students.

Then, ALL 9 MEMBERS of the court sided with a bigot who LIED about EVERY detail of their case, in order to legalize discrimination against homosexuals

ALL 9 MEMBERS - even the ones you like.

There's no such thing as a "liberal minority" on this court. They fundamentally agree with the shadow docket and the extralegal ways the court is making its decisions, and if the balance were swung the other direction they'd be doing the exact same crap.

They've done it: we are living in a right-wing dictatorship

The assistant store manager position requires significantly more experience

So that's the hiring economy in a nutshell
