6·7 days agoYes, and it’s so awful that I’m going to let someone else do the punchline.
I wish I had never been born.

What’s the difference between a lentil and a chickpea?
Competition, especially free market competition is one of the enemies of capitalism.
Fortunately for capitalists in a liberalised (unregulated) market it’s not too hard to build up market power somewhere in the supply chain, and squeeze out, or effectively force the competition into franchise.
Almost unavoidable economies of scale in industries like banking are huge problem, that concentrates critical market power and drives out competition under the guise of plausible investor friendly sounding shit like “risk premia”, “international competitiveness”, “labour cost efficiency”. Directed credit, sectoral and regional should be part of being a bank, the banks have been given responsibility for running the economy, but not made accountable for it. That’s why they can get away with investing in real estate bubbles instead of productive industry.
FDR was one of the last USA leaders who seemed to understand the role of banks - sadly that was a long time ago and those ideas seem to be long forgotten.
Nah, its in shitpost.
Mickey7 must think this is ludicrous crap.
Yep sounds like a great “get overpaid then take early retirement” story.
Lots of bankers and other overpaid people can do this type of thing too.
This lifestyle doesn’t seem sustainable if scaled to any meaningful share of the current population.
Before lemmy became a has-been.
Seen it in a recently refurbished one in central Glasgow.

Cheap. I’m sure it’s just to squeeze a few more rooms in, so if the price stays low and it’s clearly described, I don’t see the problem.
Do you use a fresh dishcloth/kitchen sponge every time you wash up? re: mythbusters ep 135.
They didn’t test towel unfortunately unless there was a follow up that i cant remember.
I’d think you’d have to use two avocados, one you’d ruin the inside, one you’d ruin the skin.
Thanks! And , man that is rib lan.

I knew a hammerhead shark once, it was actually very kind and considerate, even when hammering. I think humans will probably evolve into responsible hammer users in a few thousand generations or so. It’s just a matter of practice.
I don’t think they said people should not be silly. I think they just observed that sometimes people do silly things.
I read the shitposts - pretty much my whole feed except from sciencememes, and never see too much politics, the odd one here or there but nothing annoying. Maybe I have enough user level blocks in place already.
I do see far too much of this of this corn crap recently, so I’m just building up a whole new section of my blocklist. If there isn’t any diversity in shit posts soon, i guess i just ditch this community as it’ll be more efficient.
I guess i should expect a dirty protest from shitpost - but I’d rather the literal shit posts than one more day of this cornucrapia.
Does ratemypoo.com still exist - maybe I’ll just browse that.
