This might be a US thing. I have worked in — what I consider — pretty unfulfilling jobs, but they usually still insist I take my vacation time and remind me to take breaks. Maybe it secretly came back in my performance review in obscure ways so I might also be an idiot.

Or force them to admit they are selling it for real without all the license mumbo jumbo. They have always known what "buy now" buttons were meant to lead you to believe. And — in my humble opinion — you aren't wrong for believing that; they are.

Also, the sunlight suggests it's summer in the first photo (or at least not winter).

Diabetic people probably care about egg prices. Low-carb diets were a bit pricier already. But I'm going to go out supposing you are really asking why every article about inflation for the past two years focuses on eggs. I just assumed it was a manifestation of that meme about United Statesians desperately grasping for any metric other than the metric system to quantify the world around them.

So... People tell me an election year is no time to talk about electoral reform. Every US election year. But! After the election, they scurry away under the refrigerator and stay there for 4 years. I know you have to hold your nose while you vote this time, but catch these weird centrists before they disappear and hold their feet to the fire to influence change. You deserve better than this "I'm not voting for _, I'm voting against _" nonsense. Your government is hurting all of us. Stop it, please.

Somebody laminated my birth certificate. But what are they going to do about it, unborn me? Wait… will they?

Edit: What if somebody laminates my death certificate? 😭

Step 1: Unwrap processed cheese slice and put in mouth. Repeat as necessary.
