Nice in an ideal world

But just as it’s not a woman’s job to teach men emotional skills, it’s not a gay persons either.

Others can’t keep carrying the burden for this.

If I see something advertised or pushed by them i immediately question the integrity of the product. I can’t trust them or the brand.

Anything like this, It has the opposite the intended effect

Vital proteins take themselves a bit serious. I’d send it back. Terms and conditions my @$$.

Idiot behavior from self important companies should not be rewarded.

Anyone know of any dedicated communities on here or good resources (uk) for day to day frugality or at least less giving money to millionaires?

I used to use the likes of hot deals etc but it’s now just a glorified sales platform. I am talking actual communities that share suggestions and support.

Just as this this guy says

you dont get a ban for the first instance. This shows repeated offences. Lucky she has the money for a driver.

I have little patience for serial speeders. Gripe all you like, but speed limits save lives.

I am pretty decent at the no spending. Have been for a few years. I hate waste and consuming crap for the sake of it.

I do need to go back to basics. I still need to purchase and live somewhat conveniently, as I have a family. Some stuff that’s worked for me. Bulk buying once a year. Anything non perishable toilet roll, soap powder etc. I buy a years work and shove it in the garage. Agin bulk with items like salt, vinegar, oil. I then decant to smaller bottles. There are lots of sauces I can make myself. I am good at using what’s about for salad dressings. Use leftovers. I really enjoy them anyway.

There are more, I just can’t think. It’s still buying but buying less and smarter is my start.
Any other ideas that anyone can think of?

So how do we start rallying against this? Any ideas? I am trying to spend less and also choose less convenience products. Additionally I choose bargain shops, B&M even Aldi etc where I can. It’s not a big step but it’s a message.

What other options or actions can we undertake to start tackling this greedy behaviour?

If you don’t like YouTube with ads then simply don’t use it. Your life can exist without it.

You’re on a community chat board, people comment. Do you really have to be so grouchy? At least I am here part of the conversation. If you wanna be angry point it at YouTube/google etc not randoms on the internet. I can be cynical but it’s lesser than other things I could be.

Then sign in and watch them. 😀

The nice channels, those days are gone. The internet we knew has been destroyed or will be diminished to an annoying shadow pretty soon. If you had to put a % on what is now monitized or stripped for data what would it be?

Our world is so fast now, I spent years chasing it and forgot the peaceful joy that comes with slow and practical. I do miss my old CD player. Might mooch around for a second hand one as I miss exactly what you just described.

No

You are correct. But the right tool in the wrong hands is still non credible in the eyes of perception.

This is my take. Elon just showed the world what we all knew. The tool is not trustworthy. All other AI suppliers are busy trying to work on credibility that grok just butchered.

Drives me crazy. It’s a way to cause drama rather rather using words to communicate what you want say.

Same always bought my kids Nintendo. I am resistant to the switch 2 and rather proudly my teenager came and told me they are not impressed with Nintendo’s practices and does not want it.

This console is gonna be a hard no from me. If I can’t own my stuff they don’t get my money.

These articles often state ‘women’ not having babies like it’s a woman led problem.

It takes more than a woman to make a baby, a man is needed too. Society has made it so hard to have/want a child. Not m/f specific. Even if you do have kids, what world are are you bringing them into. Not m/f specific.

Bamboo sheets are pretty nice. They have weight to them but keep you cool in the summer.

Quilt cover?

Consequences of the greedy pixie strike again
