Baristas and drivers and teachers having a reasonable standard of living isn't the road to economic ruin.

Wages didn't keep up with inflation over the past few years. But profits did. Your paycheck isn't to blame.

There's so many books I need to re-read that I read as a teenager, because I really want to know how my perspective has changed. The issue is there's so many I haven't even read yet that I want to read.

First world problems: being sad bc your UPS package isn't here yet, but the USPS package is. I wish it had been shipped USPS because I'd have it already.

How the fuck are offices both too cold and too hot at the same time? I'm sweating but my hands are cold.

I hate a Monday after having days off. It's so much more depressing than a normal Monday.

Growing up, the mentality always existed of "If it's in the kitchen, you're free to eat it. We can always get more. " It's so weird visiting my partner's family where that isn't the mentality. I love getting berated for eating something that was just sitting on the counter. You didn't label it as yours?

The chaos of 20 somethings is work conversations like "I go to bed at 2am normally." "Bruh, really? I go to bed at 8pm".

I really wish sites would stop with this ‘x hours, y days, z months’ rubbish. Put the bloody date on content and social posts. At least have it there as an option, next to supposedly ‘helpful’ human markers.

@PKYo no idea. I'm not taking their survey if they want to push it that fucking hard.

The amount of times the mechanic I got my oil changed at has texted me saying to take their survey makes me never want to use them again. 14 texts since Saturday.

Hell is my coworker having loud, length discussions about buying a house over the phone on the day I forget headphones.

The four types of players at every pre-release #mtg

P1:
Tales from the Mana Crypt:
Text: We spoke to four types of players at pre-release about their strategies.

A broad-shouldered man in a three piece suit and fedora holds two cards, seated at a table. He casts an imposing shadow over the table and his hat casts a shadow over his eyes. He says, "Well, a man's gotta have a code, see? but what's a fella to do when he opens bombs in all 5 colors? All this mana fixing's making me an offer I can't refuse."

Text (Bold): The Fixer.P2:
A dishevelled person in a hoodie with dark circles under their eyes, their hair up in a clip, and two different earbuds (one in each ear, each leading to a different device) frantically sorts cards on a table while muttering, "Okay, good commons in red, but my rares..." They look up, startled at the presence of the interviewer. "Oh! Sorry, couldn't hear you," they say, "I got Limited Resources in one ear, and Lords of Limited in the other." They add, sheepish, "...yes, at 2x speed."

Text (Bold): The Prepper.P3:
A woman with dangly jewlery and shiny, angular sunglasses sits at a table with rows of cards. "Strategy?" she asks, "Draw a copy of my build-around every game, or die trying!"

She continues, "what do you mean, 'what if you don't'? Did I stutter?"

Text (Bold): The Dreamer.P4:
A black man with flat-top haircut in a pressed white button-down with tie and cardigan, reminiscent of Mr. Rogers stands in a pose like medieval iconography of Jesus Christ. he holds one card close to his face and another closer to the table. A sun-like flare shines in the background. "Oh you're new to the game? Welcome! Let me know if you need any help," he says, "If you have any cards you're looking for, I'll let you know if I open any! Yeah, we can trade or honestly you could just have them!"

Text (Bold): The Saint.
