Back in 1793, a penny could get you a biscuit, a candle or a piece of candy. These days, many sit in drawers or glass jars and are basically cast aside or collected as lucky keepsakes.

Nothing I love more when I'm trying to locate the locked cabinet containing Q-tips than overbearing, insincere friendliness from people desperate to keep their minimum wage jobs
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

The way people are driving this morning, I can only assume they stopped teaching folks about “loading/unloading” zones. You cannot just stop anywhere you fucking like.

I really enjoyed that Bad Bunny SNL episode. I’d laughed at like 70% of it, which is kind of a staggeringly high amount for that show. I probably would have liked El Chavo too, if I’d ever seen that show. The Inventing Spanish and Jeopardy skits were my favorite.

The whole thing looks a bit like: what if the confederates stole the 1860 election, then implemented a comprehensive illegal overhaul they had been planning for 20 years, and the northern states just complied and stood down with no effective means of resistance
