The dark arts
  • Or maybe I just like efficiency more than I hate the phone.

    This is me. Texting is great for simple questions but if any sort of extended back and forth is needed just calling tends to be faster.

    Harris and Trump are getting ready for Tuesday’s debate in sharply different ways
  • There are a certain subset of people that just vote R because they always have because of where they grew up or how their parents voted or what have you and pay attention to basically fucking nothing but the biggest of headlines. These are the ones he might still be able to lose if he fucks up hard enough, because at this point I suspect a lot of them are not exactly hyped about voting for him anyway and are just coasting on a combination of sunk cost fallacy and a nigh on pathological fear of change.

    What other movies wouldn't work today?
  • Or find a reason for everyone to not have their phone available in the first place. Like if you pull a From Dusk Til Dawn and have them be fugitives, you could have them ditch their phones to not be tracked and the whole group is sharing one shitty burner phone or something.

    A nearly comical reminder that corporations aren't your friend.
  • A doctor died of an allergic reaction to something in her food at a Disney owned restaurant after repeatedly informing staff that she was allergic to said thing. Husband filed a wrongful death suit. Disney lawyers are trying to have the suit dismissed as he once had a trial of Disney+ for a bit and the terms of service includes an arbitration clause.

    What was "the incident" at your work place?
  • Years ago when I worked at Taco Bell someone got fired because the manager walked in on him snorting coke off the bags of strawberry they used to put on top of the fruitista freezes in the walk-in.

    Also some asshole pulled a gun in drive thru during my shift because he ordered extra cheese on his 7 layer nachos and apparently did not get adequate cheese.

    The Casualties of the "Passive Drug Exposure" Myth
  • When someone is actually prescribed fentanyl, it's in a transdermal patch similar to a nicotine patch. Honestly my guess is at some point years ago now, police and EMS were both called to a situation where someone had one such patch on and was in need of CPR. Cop happens to arrive first and is giving compressions. EMS arrives and takes over, but in the course of doing so one of them explains what the patch is to the cop and advises them to be mindful about handling it. Cop only half understands the explanation given, and several trips through the rumor mill later we have a new urban legend.

    And it'll be the most subtle, unassuming envelope too.
  • Mine made a clerical issue when I updated my address and decided there were two of me once. Only found out because both of me got jury duty. That was a fun one.

    The look of betrayal
  • The spicy Thai chili one is really good on rice, too. I usually add some sriracha mayo on top and call it a poor man's poke bowl.

    Did JD Vance Dress As Drag Queen In Yale Law School? Photo Surfaces
  • Tbf, I could ENTIRELY see a circumstance where Trump "fires" him anyway, Vance doesn't step down, Trump ignores this and proceeds to pick a new VP even though he technically can't, and both Vance and new guy spend the remainder of the election desperately trying to get orange senpai to notice them.

    Sappho & Her Friend play rulepermarket sweeps (90s socially acceptable edition)
  • Supermarket Sweep was a game show where each team got a shopping cart and x amount of time to fill it up. Whoever's cart is worth the most at the end wins a prize (the rest of the contestants just win whatever they had in the cart if I remember correctly).
