Jesus … two families, many many friends, just horribly killed on what was supposed to be a happy day.

Words are failing me, that’s just really fucking sad.

Do you have this in article form, by any chance?

I’m sorry my reply came off as aggressive, I truly wasn’t trying to be. These times are incredibly frustrating, we just want good products from good companies that don’t do fucked up shit, and that seems to be too much to ask for ?? It sucks.

But I have no problem with you personally, we’re all trapped in this stupid system together. Be well, my dude. I’m sorry my reply caused you stress, it wasn’t my intention.

Edit: I see that you have downvotes and want you to know they’re not from me

I was off Facebook for years, and was never a heavy user, but I had to get back on because the school my daughter goes to sends out so many notifications that way.

Facebook is very ingrained in how business and groups interact these days, what’s an individual to do? Disconnect from the world and miss important school notifications, among other things?

Plus the “stealing” isn’t just from people using the platform, it’s also in wages and benefits for employees. Why aren’t they getting a bigger share of those profits they worked to produce?

To me this is how our conversation thread goes:

Me: I hope they crash and burn

You: They actually make good products, I hope this tax stuff goes away so they can focus on their good products

Me: Nah, fuck them, I hope they crash and burn for what they’ve done

You: And throw their good products in the trash?

That to me sounds like you think their good products should save them from the Find Out portion of Fucking Around. Please correct me if I misunderstood you, but that’s how the conversation reads to me.

Yep, sure. I’m okay with that. It makes more sense that someone else buys the company than to throw it in the trash, but regardless I don’t see how “they make good products” is an excuse for the manipulation of our government on the scale they’ve engaged in.

If more corporations faced the death penalty for the shit they pull they’d be way less likely to pull it. (To be clear I’m referring to the company being sold and/or the leaders going to jail, depending on the offense, not literally executing the heads of corporations)

One can make really good products and still be such unmitigated removed that they should lose that business altogether.

They’ve spent insane amounts of money lobbying the government to keep poor AF people easily able to be tricked into paying for their tax return all while advertising a hard to find free service. Paying people we pay for with our tax dollars so that more of our hard earned cash can flow into their pockets. And if they spent insane amounts to keep it that way you know full well they’re making that amount back and then some. Off of us.

They’re evil. No offense to you, but fuck their really good products.

Heyyyy! Popping in from a Texas area that finally got some god damn rain to say, I’m so happy you got rain, too!!

It’s glorious, isn’t it?!

As someone who drives for a living and tries to be very aware of the motorcyclists in the area, thank you for your note. I’ll add it to my “Don’t kill a motorcyclist” checklist.

(god I hope that doesn’t sound sarcastic)

Aw, man, two thirds through your comment I upvoted you cuz I felt bad your joke got taken wrong.

But the winge-fest in the edit… Dude sometimes a joke doesn’t land, take the L.

Man, I hope I live to see the day that these greedy bastards lose a huge chunk of their business to free filing via the IRS. They’ve been fighting to keep tax paying citizens from getting what they want from their government for years. It’s gross.

I want to see this free filing happen both for the good it’ll do and because I want to see Intuit’s stock plummet. Fuck Intuit.

“It’S gOiNg tO HuRt bLaCk pEoPle” fuck off you dirty liars.

Keep up the good work, it might not always work, but the times that it does are priceless.

There are a decent amount of teenagers where I work and I try to pass that idea on to as many as I can. Adults too, of course, but it’s really satisfying to be able to catch people while they’re young and still have loads of time to protect themselves… From a lot of things.

You’re absolutely right, all this old timer “Kids these days are so soft…” B. S. When in reality the young just don’t wanna die or be maimed at 30.

Take care of your bodies, kids, it’s the only one you get. Don’t let corporations run you into the ground and then throw you in the trash. We need to demand better working conditions from our bosses and our elected officials.

Trying to read the explanations is so hard my eyes hurt and I had to give up 😭 which sucks cuz that’s SO INTERESTING!! I was planning on annoying my kid with a new random fact about plants tomorrow, but I only made it through 1.5.

That’s so incredibly cool though!

I just came home from work and my older dog PROMISES my husband forgot to feed him (husband is asleep so I can’t ask)

He’s a lucky boy, he almost never lies and my husband is known to be forgetful 😂 plus even I’d rather accidentally give him bonus dinner than send the old man off to bed hungry.

Unless Wawa has been doing that for 25+ years they stole it from ME.

Man, Wawa, haven’t heard that name in years, that brings back some memories.

Same, but apparently Italians hate us for that 🤷🏼‍♀️

It’s soo much easier to deal with tho!

With the best selection of the chicken, salad, and rice saved for that last bite.

When I’m feeling lazy after Thanksgiving it all just goes in a fucking bowl together (pre-chopped, if necessary) and I stir it up. Rolls stay out of course, I goop some Thanksgiving mush onto a chunk of roll 😁

100%, this looks unnervingly like Lindsay Lohan a decade or so ago… Wait, what does this say about poor Lindsay what she’s gonna look like at 80?

I understand that you don’t agree with him. I’m just saying sometimes karma bites people in the ass and I can’t be bothered to mind it when that happens.
