No worries, we’re all trying to make it through the best we can and I didn’t feel anything adversarial in your critique, just a desire for you and your fellow worker to be treated with dignity in their labor

That’s fair. I meant cost as in cost to me, the consumer, which is the price, but I think what you’ve said here is a valuable thing to consider when wondering why it’s so expensive and yet shit now.

The feeling bad part is aging.

Quality has absolutely gone down, though, while cost has gone way up.

Can’t help I’m hot as fuck 💅

Hey I’ve been on a Spirit flight.

I get it.

Can you give some more context for your question? It sounds like you might be replying to someone who just expressed a desire for something that you also want, but the specifics of the situation might make one reply feel more natural than another.

But based on nothing else, I’d say “I want that.” Or “I want that, too.” sounds natural to me, an East Coast American in the NYC area.

Also, looking at your posts, your English seems pretty natural, I wouldn’t guess you’re a non-native speaker reading what you write online. I can see some over-formality that I know to look for something deviant, but it’s not immediately apparent.

If they come inside your house throw em some cash. I’d say $5 for bringing it in the door, $10 for putting it near where it’s gonna be and $20 for placing it where it’ll go and unwrapping/assembling it.

That’s what I do, at least, no clue if these values are appropriate.

Goddamn right!!

The only thing I need on a screen is the GPS, everything else is an annoyance.

This is how I usually cook em. (Optionally blanch for like 30 seconds if they’re big or you find em bitter til they’re emerald green) Toss em in some olive oil with a bit of white pepper and garlic, grill or roast to desired doneness, squeeze of lemon. Delicious with a steak or alongside mushrooms.

Asparagus.

Used to hate it, had it once in season in Germany, it was so fresh and delicious, I learned how to enjoy it there.

Ooooh we HATE it when you call us “pretty boy whom I long to hug and kiss” just so fucking much even typing it out has got me quaking with rage

They need to outlaw EDDM advertising, cap the price of beer at $5 per 16 oz., and tax the rich like we did in “the golden age of America”, the 50’s, that being 91%.

I don’t think social media works well for these kinda things, but you could pick an activity you think she and her kid would enjoy and invite her out. Something casual like a museum or park. Take the temperature there and see how things feel.

My adage with dating is to err on the side of gaining a new friend as your goal. Then the worst outcome is you get a new friend.

I’d like to think I’m informed but it doesn’t change the actions I take during the day, it just makes me stressed out.

So, like, is that valuable? I’m not sure.

I’m noticing your username and I’m thinking I know why we have different experiences

I uh think we maybe have had disparate Lemmy experiences but I’m curious to see the oddity you’ve found

Factorio!! This work week has been hell and I have a week PTO starting Monday. So time to put in some effort in an asynchronous multi-player game with a friend.

No Man’s Sky is doing a Halloween event, too, so I might play around in that to get some unique cosmetics. And the Expeditions usually have a tailored experience that’s always fun.

I’ve been playing Papers Please in the 30 min or so I have for gaming in the evenings lately. I might play more of that to see if I can get all the endings.

Unless the weather is nice. Then I’m going fishing.

No Man’s Sky or Elite: Dangerous might offer you a stellar exploration experience you would enjoy over Starfield.

No RPG elements in either, though.

This just sounds stressful.

Why not make batch of mulled wine, watch a film, wake up and check Reuters on Wednesday?

The outcome won’t differ. What does election coverage offer that is insightful and useful?

Dang I really thought the title of this game was Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Won’t Let Indy Shoot Dogs for a hot minute I need to get some more coffee
