Ah, more "wave the white flag and surrender your buttholes to the status quo! Lose with dignity, fellow Republicans!"

When I want input from the Balldo Bunker of cuckservatism, I will ask for it.

Did you try Uber?

I know DoorDash and GrubHub have waitlists that take forever to get accepted but afaik, Uber just accepts you instantly when you apply.

You're better off doing Uber anyways. The other two are VERY intrusive on your privacy and have stricter rules compared to Uber. DoorDash/GrubHub you're restricted to "zones" and you get grilled if you decide to not accept a job. They also force you to have your GPS on all the time even when you're not using the app. With Uber Eats, you can accept whatever the fuck you want wherever the fuck it is and Uber won't care as long as you do your job. You can even tell the app to shut the fuck up and not talk to the GPS when you close the app.

The only thing Uber has been getting stricter lately is with cancellations, but that whole system is shit to begin with. Even if it's not your fault (e.g. some fuckhead stole the order before you came to pick it up), you still get penalized. If you're cancellation rate is 20% or more, you're out. The rating system is fucked too. You have to have above 95% approval rating to get their "plus benefits", but they ONLY count the last 100 deliveries you make. So if you're someone that's been doing it for years and have ranked 5000+ deliveries and gotten thumbs up from even vendors because you're a good delivery person that waits and doesn't make a scene, doesn't matter.... all those good boy points gone to the shitter. All it takes is 5 dickheads that will give you a thumbs down for something minor to fuck up your ranking system.

Uber has waitlists lmfao, I used to do it back pre-covid and it was an okay gig. Didn't make shit but it kept me alive so idfk

I don't know man, maybe I just need to get the paper Jew (Bachelor's Degree) just so I can *still* end up looking for a shitty job lol.

that is probably one of the worst things i've read all year. thanks man.

They've already caused 2 crashes

https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/selling-spirals--avoiding-an-ai-flash-crash

In 2010, a flash crash occurred in the market due to a number of high-frequency trading algorithms engaging in a series of rapid trades. Perhaps most troubling, this quick dive took place on an otherwise normal trading day. A few algorithms in use simply “misread” the market. The unwarranted sell-off initiated by those mistaken models then caused other programs to respond in kind. The $1 trillion lost in that half hour period was eventually made up thanks to human intervention.

But this was not a fringe case. A similar algorithmic hiccup also took place in 2016. In that case, analysts attributed an overnight 6 percent drop in the British pound to algorithmic trading. This incident confirmed the susceptibility of algorithms to “high-speed selling spirals.”

the best thing society ever did was hand over the fake money reserve to the robots to bet and gamble against each other with. what the fuck were they THINKING?

I don’t think you’re going to get many people to believe your “things were fine under Biden, actually” argument, because we were actually there.

nice whataboutism

It is not the government's responsibility to support your gambling habit.

Half of them typically “smuggle” in alcohol because it’s a lot cheaper and certain border crossing are legit incompetently guarded.

Better tighten up those borders then, think of all the fentanyl.

Man I hate having to spend an hour and a half every monday catching up on this thread because I spent the weekend living my life, but I really really really appreciate all you autists for aggregating all this news for me.

Democrats are like the mother that spoils their good too much.

I was just thinking this yesterday, that the terminally online living caricatures aside, the liberals and progressives I know in real life are all pretty much in agreement that the government is doing a shit job of everything, but the liberal instinct is to throw more money at it where the conservative instinct is to dismantle it, just like the maternal instinct is to help and protect a child where the paternal instinct is to challenge and punish where necessary so they fucking learn and grow. Liberalism is literally fatherless behavior.

Anyway, everybody talking about annexing Canada and the UK is making me nervous, I don't want more cucks and immigrants voting in the next election.

Also fuck Israel fuck ZOG fuck kikes fuck Mossad glowniggers, never trust anyone who openly adheres to an ideology that considers you subhuman.

Whataboutism is the word the left uses to not have to confront hypocrisy.

I agree with most here on the stock market but it will be interesting to see if it causes Trump to change course. He's very ego driven

I don't buy the whole "Trump is driven by ego" "He's only in it for the glory" shit. If that was true Trump never would have ran for president in the first place since he knew from the start that he was going to lose all his allies and the media was going to smear him hardcore. The only evidence there is of Trump being "ego and glory" driven are his humorous "Trumpisms" he tosses around but those that are familiar with Trump personally state that's just his sense of humor. Norm Macdonald said after he got to know Trump when he was doing SNL that Trump loves to parody himself almost like a WWE wrestler and most people don't seem to understand that side of him and take his self parody as a matter of fact which makes people look very stupid. If Trump really only cared about the glory and his own ego he would've kept doing the same shit he was doing before he ran for president since he was a mostly beloved figure to everyone until he ran for President.

I don't think he's going to be changing course because he knows this is all a part of the process to meet the end goal.

Better tighten up those borders then, think of all the fentanyl.

i agree, we should be tightening up the borders on illegal smuggling of any kind, because if you can smuggle a suitcase full of booze over, you can smuggle a suitcase with a human being in it, or a suitcase full of fentanyl. unfortunately, the US-CAN land border is completely impossible to patrol unless you're going to accept a massive spike in your and everyone else's taxes just to pay a bunch of people to watch what is, 99.9% of the time, an empty, snowy, or sodden piece of forest/prairie, or empty and vast stretches of lake water already monitored by the coast guard.

in reality, it's mostly a lack of border enforcement on the canadian side which allows things to penetrate, because it's a one-side porous border, because most smugglers aren't even trying to smuggle things out of the US. it becomes an issue of enforcement within the other country, as you've seen with trump's statements. there's very little we can do on the american side, and a lot of it would be unnecessary if the canadians policed their water borders better, and if they handled their incoming entries with more caution. that's what it boils down to with the fentanyl-porous northern border.

The night of the long knives is happening across America, with leftist terrorists bombing Teslas and murdering journalists. It is happening and is not being reported.
