O don't watch a lot of TV, bit commercials during sports...
It emphasizes my disdain for "popular" celebrities and movie stars shilling for shit ass companies.
I question their decisions to sell out their morals for cash. Assuming they had morals.
I'm not buying it.

It seems that I easily recognize how I work through grief is to accept it and bemuse the uncomfortableness until it changes. Not to normalize it, but to... do you ever watch tv reruns and see the show differently from the first time you saw it? it changes
I practice grief.

I think greed invented long term care insurance to support the for-profit health care systems out there.
If health care wasn't so expensive, we wouldn't need LTC insurance to pay for care.
I shouldn't need to sell my childhood home so that my mother may die comfortably.

Sometimes it isn't the taste of the coffee, but the atmosphere, the mood, the playground of ritual with ingredients and methods.
There is sarcasm and spite in coffee as well as welcome and joy.
How does coffee greet your lips and how do you respond?

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX
