I can see the cart abandonment rate
for the last several years every time i felt a craving for some food delivered, i’ve noped right out on the checkout screen with the final price with delivery fee and knowing that doesn’t include tip. not fucking worth it, i’ve got other things to eat
edit: the last time i did this, the delivery fee was ~$2.00. is $3.50 standard now? lol…no.
2·17 hours agofor kids i would agree, it makes sense that it’s better to have breakfast than not–their brains and bodies are actively under construction and need all the macros. but for the remaining 60+ years of life, there are studies supporting the notion that breakfast is optional: https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/is-skipping-breakfast-bad#TOC_TITLE_HDR_2 all claims are cited
ultimately everyone should do what they want, but be skeptical of the “you must eat breakfast” claims bombarding everything everywhere, made by industries that have much to gain from everyone eating breakfast, and almost as much to lose from not everyone eating breakfast.
ultimately, every individual is responsible for what they choose to take as truth. this is why there has been such an aggressive assault on critical thinking in favor of “parental authority”-- just believe what you’re told and stop asking questions.
it’s not that hard to separate the plausible from the questionable, from the obvious bullshit.
as an example, dr. fauci is a doctor. he’s been a doctor for decades, has risen to high positions in the field, has been producing research, also for decades, which has been cited by other experts in the field frequently. and, prior to bullshit claims by trump and the entire GOP, was never the subject of any controversy.
so the discerning mind has no trouble concluding that it’s reasonable to assume that fauci, who knows what he’s talking about and has no apparent reason to mislead the entire world, is a credible source of information, while trump, a notorious conman who told 30,000 verifiable lies in his first term alone is absolutely NOT. so the GOP preaches “vaccines are bad,” and the “patriotic” american says “vaccines are bad”
yes it’s fucking mind-bogglingly stupid, but the problem isn’t a lack of availability of information, the problem is information literacy–the skill (yes skill) to separate truth (even if only “likely” truth) from fiction (even if comically obviously fiction). which the GOP is actively, deliberately, visciously undermining, while no one says a thing, because we’re preoccupied by nazi gestapo trump cultists rounding up innocent citizens because they’re brown
“breakfast is the most important meal of the day!”

tl;dr: it’s fucking not.
related: you’re not going to 100% die (or even get sick. yes really) if you skip a meal (or even 2), fatass.
edit: i have to add another thing
diamond engagement rings are absolute 100% bullshit, which, as a genXer, i only learned later in life. i wouldn’t be adding this if there weren’t still way too many people who are completely bamboozled by this fake “tradition” invented solely to make obscenely wealthy people even more obscenely wealthy.
if you’re going to flood your veins with 500 grams of pure glucose, might as well do both. eat the waffle regularly, and wrap the pancakes around sausages and dunk them in that salad bowl of syrup you’re also eating all of
that downward spiralled quickly
just locker room talk
for me that was maybe the most infuriating response to this whole thing. from women too, no less.
i’ve been in many locker rooms, with other dudes, and have never once talked about sexually assaulting women, joking or otherwise
1·3 days agoyou do you. enjoy your convenience. for my part, i will continue to spend $0.00 for the privilege of being the product.
all of these brands can take their smart devices and go fuck themselves with it. “convenient” GTFO
republicans are so. fucking. stupid.
“libtard” = someone with the capacity to feel empathy = enemy of fascism AND communism
edit: it’s incredible to me, that people put as much trust as they do in the entire world
ok. tell me your account and routing numbers
31·4 days agowho could have EVER guessed the fat drunk wifebeater-wearing “der terk er jerrrrrbs” americans wouldn’t sign up to do back breaking manual labor for minimum wage for 12 hours a day?
why the fuck is this a problem…seriously if more people rubbed one out once in a while, the world would be a much more peaceful and less rapey place to live
“ok. tell me your account and routing numbers then”
it doesn’t take much critical thinking to conclude that smart tvs are bullshit, but apparently too much for most people
in america, “conservatives” will tell you that they want a return to “traditional values” even though that’s just barely the case in reality.
what maga really wants:
be racist/bigoted with complete impunity
mandatory jesus
own slaves again
failing that, resegregation
tradwifei’m definitely leaving things out, but you get the idea–pretty much the fantasy is to return to the 1950s
edit: i want to add, a LOT of maga voters will say “no i don’t want that i don’t want that” while literally voting for and supporting and wearing t-shirts of the party that’s trying to force people to deify charlie kirk, and punish anyone who doesn’t. it’s absolutely fucking insane, and whatever problems exist in europe, please know that here’s at least one person who envies you
“i’m… offended by him saying that too…”
reminds me of samuel l jackson’s character in django unchained
mind control is a very real, very powerful, and very dangerous thing.
look up “kamikaze”
