This is a sidebar but this is a form of manufactured consent of a more broader variety.

What is happening here is that elites enjoy finding everyday actions of the peons (you and me) that we insist a right to enjoy and, instead of taking a serious account of fault, find basis to ridicule.
Tariffs have rapidly increased the price of coffee—a drink with almost no nutritional value and lots of functional substitutes. Yet coffee may also be the one thing Americans can’t live without, @elcush.bsky.social writes:
The Drink That Americans Won’t Give Up Without a Fight
Coffee has almost no nutritional value and lots of substitutes. It’s also, apparently, too important to lose.

October is fire safety month, so reminder to make sure you have a smoke detector and a CO alarm (you can combo them)

Make sure your detectors haven't expired (they should have a sticker on them telling you when they need to be replaced)

I'm convinced that 4 digit account PINs for telephone service are some sort of scam designed to deny support or make it more of a hassle. What system are you supposed to have for this to actually be secure and memorable???

I’m kind of speechless with this one. I can’t imagine the kind of person who continues to make the argument that it doesn’t count as real starvation if the kids were already sick.

Someone who played their game and won! In the immediate aftermath of two Democratic lawmakers getting shot they are going on TV and painting their own nominee as a terrorist antisemite. I am embarrassed I have ever spent money or time trying to get any of them elected

"Criticizing Biden is why we have Trump."

No, white supremacy is why we have Trump. Anti-Black racism is why we have Trump. Institutional racism is why we have Trump. Misogyny is why we have Trump.

Uncritical fealty to public servants defeats none of those things.

He's taking aim at mercury, soot, and toxic pollution restrictions, and federal protection of wetlands.

The EPA will also rewrite rules limiting pollution from fossil-fuel plants and cars, and more.

The obvious solution is to staff adequately and have employees a little more invested in selling smartly, but to do that you'd have to pay people like a tiny bit more in a way that will not materially impact your lavish life. Why do that when you can simply set mountains of cash on fire instead
McDonald's is testing facial recognition and AI at drive-thrus.

The AI is reportedly being used for tailored promotions.

It analyzes prior purchases and even weather trends, so you could see a deal on the app for a cold treat on a hot day.
