But that’s a huge downside to most people.

That was probably because of the density of the cheese. I had the same thing happen to me with a bag of gnocchi once. They really thought it was something illicit because they had a big armed security guy on either side of me while they had me open it, and they looked really disappointed to find out what it really was.
Because security is more concerned with finding weapons and drugs. Customs/Borders Enforcement is the group tasked with finding prohibited plants and animals, and they don’t usually start looking for those things until you get to the destination country.
I didn’t say tipping wasn’t a thing for delivery drivers. I said it was not typical for contract work. But regarding this comparison, tipping was in no way expected for deliveries before the apps. Del drivers back then were given a livable base wage and were reimbursed for mileage and gas on their vehicle, which the apps also do not do. I know because I did deliveries in college before the apps. It was also normal to tip less than 10% of the purchase price for delivery, yet the suggested tip values in app are always 10% or more. And another difference is drivers weren’t allowed to pick deliveries based on the tip value, but that’s how the apps work making your “tip” effectively the payment for delivery speed. That’s not how tipping is supposed to work.
But back to what I originally said, tipping is not typical for contract work. There is no other type of contract work where tipping 10-20% is expected other than delivery, ridehsare, and other similar new apps, so the apps created this trend for contract work, and it’s merely a way to pressure the customer to pay their workers so they don’t have to.
This is simply a company using legal distinctions to shift the blame. These delivery drivers should be employees of the company. Besides, tipping is not topical for traditional contractors. Any payment is agreed upon ahead of time in the contract, and payment is made in accordance with said contract. Tips never enter into it.
Not directly. They are mostly indoctrinated by Christians from the West. There is a common belief among Evangelical Christians that the Israeli state is a requirement (much like the Antichrist) for their god to rapture them all up to heaven and end the world through a fiery apocalypse.
I don’t honestly know his opinions on the matter, but politically, he has used Zionist language as well as anti-Zionist language depending on whichever is more convenient for him at the moment.
No. It seems you are assuming all Zionists are Jews, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Most Christian Nationalists are also Zionists.
And that is why he was ok with Russia blackmailing him with the pee pee tape.

I haven’t seen any obvious astroturfing yet, but your last paragraph really did have the vibe of a smoothly transitioned paid promotion. Not saying it was, but even the comments that you haven’t fully bought into it made it feel even more like one of the more honest paid promotions.
It would be really weird if you kept looking after finding it.
It’s always the last place you look.
J Peterman is gonna be so pissed since he hates opium and loves Burma.
Great point. I find it hilarious that every post in this comm that makes it to the front page has people complaining about the presence of the update, and it’s often the most upvoted comment. Your fb analogy is perfect.
It’s more like the cops throw a grenade at the robber and teller, and when they kill the teller, the officers try to imply the teller’s complicity because they allowed the robbers to control the bank to begin with.
And then when the robbers rationalize the bank teller’s death as martyrdom for their cause, should we really feel bad for the teller?
I’d honestly be more worried if my late stage capitalism burgers HAD faces.
Probably an unintentional mistake rather than a concious design decision. I think they used a transparent background instead of white, so it accidentally looks evil in night mode. To test, switch your phone out of night mode and see if it schanges the face to white along with the background.
It’s what the English call a bachelorette party apparently.
