On the flip side, I ordered something on eBay specifically to avoid Amazon and I still got a package from Amazon. Some people are basically just using an automated eBay account as a front for Amazon and pocketing the tiny margins.

At this point I only trust individual reviews from Lemmy. Unsurprisingly that means I haven't watched much lately. But if I see a post or comment praising something then I will give it a chance.

I feel bad, because it is horrific and deeply concerning, but I lose it every time I see that picture in relation to this story. Something about the absurdity is absolutely perfect. I hope that tourist really did smile through the tears after seeing it again.

I'm extra sad to hear this happened at a bookstore. Besides a couple struggling B&Ns every bookstore around here is independent and either trans-owned or aggressively trans-friendly. Bookstores and libraries should be the ultimate safe spaces.

That pointing is amazing. I need a template of this.

Even if you're exhausted, you're getting up anyway. Your body is now successfully trained to avoid recuperating, no matter how much it needs it.

We? Of course, yes. All of us...

If it helps, I've seen these people drive cars and they don't behave any better. A few people I know only ride bikes because they got their licenses revoked. Some people really only see others as an obstacle to their goals, not as other human beings.
