What I like about this in particular is that it takes aim at the dehistoricizing, immensely tedious "things have always been bad and adults have always complained about the young" twin thesis which shirks our responsibilities.

mcdonal is doing the monopoly thing again and if you didn't know, it's considered a sweepstakes which means they need what's called an "alternative method of entry" for people who don't want to pay. you can request free game pieces (which occasionally are free food) 5 times per day here

i was at kohl’s the other day and saw a phone charger you plug into the wall that was shaped like a bag of hot cheetos. the way it was designed made it seem like the charging part was an afterthought

Anyone else have addiction to driving fast

I cannot drive slow it hurts my brain. In highway im doing 80-100 mph even if there is traffic I just cannot drive slow, I take over a lot of people in tight gaps, I change 3-5 lanes at once. I will definitely die driving one day. Im even thinking about getting in relationship just so I can be passenger princess and not be the one driving I feel I will be safer from myself. Can someone give me advice or something so I can keep in mind next time im driving and refrain from doing this I just have this addiction. I know you all hate reading this but I want to change

How far have you gone for a boycott? Called AAA rather than buy BP gas? Taken a 6hr flight with two layovers to avoid an airline you have beef with? Cancelled your Disney wedding? I want to talk to you! awilder at marketplace dot org #journorequest
