Oh yeah, I don’t think either are great, but at least Uber didn’t require drivers to submit to some crazy legal Ponzi scheme while paying for special driver’s licenses and competing with other drivers for the good shifts on a shared taxi licence. The Taxi mafia lobbied my city pretty hard and now Ubers get the opportunity to lose money to a middle man too! I’ve seen a bunch of taxis straight up also driving for Uber throughout the city.

Taxi drivers in my city also have something else Uber drivers don’t- a licence that was bought decades ago and is limited to a certain number, they never expire and can be bought and sold between private parties and you end up with one asshole who owns a bunch and rents out the licenced car to drivers who pay him a rent. It’s a pretty hardcore mafia and predates on immigrants.

They are also fucking maniacs who almost kill people every day with their reckless driving, but Ubers do that too.

I Always thought he just wanted to flush xitter, it never occurred to me that he was actually trying to succeed.

I’m sorry, Palestinians are lead by a genocidal party? Hamas does not lead Palestine.

This is pure insanity, but at least I can see the kind of insane thinking that allowed Germans to live their comfortable lives just a few kilometers away from concentration camps. When you say “Hamas is from Palestine, therefore Palestine is a target” and you manage to convince yourself that infant civilians are an acceptable casualty then you are no better.

I feel like relentless bullying is in this truck’s owner’s future.

Not being able to afford education isn’t limited to the cost of the education either. If I have to take time to study it means I have to spend every hour of every day either working, in class, studying or working on school projects to also afford to eat and have shelter, and even then I think I’d have to choose between the two.

Thanks for the info! Learned something new today.

A Black-capped Chickadee! Nice.

WELL FUCKING OBVI-

Oh right, I forgot some people are really pulling for this fossil fuel think to pull through.

Anybody own a guillotine?

If only there was some site where people could get news and information. Some sort of… News… Site? The radio? TV?

It’sstrange to me to see people waxing nostalgic about Twitter when it’s always been a cesspit.

Sure, and I didn’t care if they died I just wanted to save more money. Now I stream and torrent everything and the ones who choose to pay can do so if they please.

I started pirating again when they set a price for multiple screens a few years ago. Fuck these companies, don’t let them take an inch.
