That's my favorite part of it all.

Explain what Far-Left means?

Does it mean woke/DEI/Luigi/new phase that makes people uncomfortable?

Same. I had some Target-brand stuff I liked that. A few months ago, I tried shopping at different stores and realized how much more/better products existed. Loving all the Asian supermarkets out there.

I read that section half a dozen times and I still don't understand it.

It's like they really don't have lawyers on the team that know what they're doing.

"legally"

Remember when Trump told EU companies to stop DEI policies and EU laughed? It goes both ways.

I take a short breath and pull out my phone.

I notate when I last saw them.

I then pull out my document of every major event that occurred to me from point A to point B.

They look confused.

I comfort them.

I gently remind them that I'm on this ride with them. And if they didn't want to be informed, they shouldnt have asked.

I clear my throat, and start at the top of the list.

That's me too. And personally, I think you're my type of person to talk to.

Nah Politics is everything now.

I don't want no vanilla ass store that sells basic neutral beige non-offensive stuff, and say wishy washy bullshit to not offend snowflakes.

The stores I go to support the environment. They give back to communities and schools. They treat their workers right. They put up giant rainbow flags and donate to progressive movements.

I can choose from hundreds of places to shop. Make a MAGA store. At least that tells me to avoid it. But it's the "We don't talk about politics" stores that really piss me off.

I send emails to their support team every time I buy something at Costco to remind them. I'm probably blocked by their systems.

But it's about the message.

When I was struggling in college to eat and people talked about the market collapsing -- pal, I was trying not to be homeless. I had a thousand other problems, from bad health issues, uncertainty over if I would sleep in a bed, where my next meal.

Its a awful take to rip into them for not caring that the Dow Jones lost 2000 points or whatever.

Surprisingly, he was actually a terrible person BEFORE MAGA.

Maybe, if you ignore reality

 

I work downtown. I personally take the bus to work and walk.

While getting feedback from our paid intern's experience, one complained about having to pay for parking.

Because I naturally always support the interns, I pushed for that perk. Why shouldn't they get all the help they need? They're young, they have a busy life and they're trying their best.

But my coworker (who drives) said, "Theres street parking and they are complaining they have to walk 14 minutes over."

Now my internal "Fuck Cars" position is battling with my "Give the Interns everything".

I'm not the deciding factor. Just wanted to share this.
