MGTOW should be indifferent, but they kinda got hijacked into another red pill BS place. Their lives revolve around hate for women and not actually going your own way and finding what makes you content.

BRICS? Lol.

It’d be BRICSUK then. Kinda close to Brexit. Just paint it as the next step after Brexit.

Mmmm. I’m not sure why, but this pic unlocked memories of me chewing on my Atari controller growing up. I can still taste the plastic.

This franchise owner acted without corporate blessing, and if I had to guess, that message was intentionally not passed up the chain.

If that is true then wouldn’t that be the message?

We don’t take sides, and this franchise did, so he can’t be a franchise owner anymore. Sell something that isn’t McDonald’s.

I don’t think that was their message. Their message was, "please don’t be mad at us. " Like someone else said in this thread, this doesn’t change my opinion of McDonald’s and I already wasn’t eating there. I just see their excuse as another BS reason.

We learned about it before Sunday. We heard this was going on the week before. Are you saying McDonald’s is so unorganized that the message didn’t reach headquarters? Or are they just that slow in responding to it?

That’s where my too late idea is coming from. They want to eat their cake and have it too. Shore up some good PR for the pro-trumps and now say oh no we would never be political after some complaints come in. Seems business as usually for companies.

Shit. We just had an airshow here and I was about to look for my ticket for self exit. Thanks for the heads up.

For current news, those were hard questions. I think just not accepting what the candidate says as facts and following up with detailed questions equals “hard questions” now.

Look how the news is treating Trumps mental decline compared to when his opponent was Biden.

The CEO of a company having a fiduciary obligation to the board and a lawyer to defend their client the best they can aren’t “actual laws” where a cop will arrest you. They are rules for the job and if you are not following these rules then you will be fired/lose your license to practice law.

That’s probably why there is no law that people point out to you. It’s a job requirement.

I agree. I understand the rules and it makes sense to me. The people going through it don’t care. The husband going through this loss doesn’t care about other people needing his living donor liver, or there being better recipients. He would view it (I imagine) as “why should I donate when they didn’t help my wife?”

Maybe he should, but maybe he is thinking “Fuck them, we tried to participate in the system. We had a living donor to go. What? Oh you have a ‘better’ recipient? Well, guess who doesn’t want to donate to a system that failed my loved one.”

Well it’s not southern Russia’s northern China’s fault that some mad man in Moscow used a nuke. China will just be generous and help lead the clean up in wonderful north north China.

Exactly. Rome had memes they painted on the city walls about their political leaders.

I think it’s more like, the ship wreck will be recovered by someone. It is up to them to label these people as “illegal looters/pirates” or legitimate recovery which they will do business with.

If they go the “it’s illegal” route then they won’t see the loot for some time, while it gets sold on the black market.

Supposed to be, but I’m pretty sure I’ve seen NBA professionals playing at the Olympics. Why make an exception for them?

I would argue that you should go out of your way to do hip thrusts or any other butt strengthen exercise. Strong glutes help back pain and posture. Try to strengthen your whole posterior chain of muscles.

Some guys skip hip thrusts or glute bridges, but they are dumb. Chicks like butts too. A strong butt won’t make you look feminine. Strong glutes help with your thrusting motion. It helps generate more power when you thrust. Does that sound feminine or could you think of another reason why you would want a stronger thrust?

But also fuck the haters. Find what feels good. Work on controlled movements and try to go through a full range of motion. Don’t get injured.

If you are doing body weight stuff, look into sissy squats, if you haven’t. I don’t do too many of them, but they are tough.

Hah, you got me. The CIA infiltrated Lemmy.

We talk politics and current events sometimes. People also like coming by the office to let off steam about work. The time I brought it up was after that Mormon family got shot up by the cartels. I think the victims were in 2 different vehicles and the cartels stopped them and killed everyone.

We have interesting conversations.

I tell people at work, the way to fix the cartel problem is to legitimize cartels. You have to appeal to the fact that people want to leave things better for future generations. Change their AOR as a business to something else. They already diversified to some legal fields. The cartels already have the logistics, communication, and infrastructure.

An organization this big doesn’t disappear just because you captured the top guy. Someone will take over. That someone will usually be deadly so that they can cement their leadership.

If you convince the top guy to restructure his organization then after a few generations maybe they can have a ‘me too’ movement. No one likes my idea though, so I don’t know if that means it’s a good negotiation deal or a bad one. 😂
