Yup. Being at the store is just a guessing game until the tax gets added. And then I just swipe the card lol

Hard agree with metric for the most part. I forever stand by Fahrenheit for temperatures you experience, and Celsius for science. I don't want to have to use decimals in my everyday life, but that's just me

And really, K is the ideal temperature unit for scientific purposes, since there's actually a hard starting point, rather than picking an arbitrary state change at an arbitrary pressure of a kind of arbitrary compound.

Well damn. A fair and nuanced explanation. On the internet, no less. Hadn't thought about that before. Gonna have to readjust some opinions.

But who will think of the shareholders? They're the real victims.

Funny how they had the money to do that all along. It's almost like corporations steal labor from the working class.

I mean, not if he was Republican. Remember, Matt Gaetz literally trafficked teenage girls and he's still in power.

A perfect score... I thought it was but a legend.

Tell that to folks having to work three jobs to provide for their family. The concept of the minimum wage was to provide enough wages for people to support their families (on a single income no less) with a forty hour work week. Now, there isn't a single state where you can afford an average apartment on a minimum wage job. Saying 'youre paid what you're worth' is just a fancy way of saying some people don't deserve essentials in a post scarcity society.

But yeah, we can just let kids work to add a third income to the household. That'll solve it.
