it's going to be corporate, In-store managers have practically no control. The person in charge of these practices is likely to be titled a regional director or similar, and even then they are going to be "translating" and implementing board/owner instructions.
My tipping follows the inverse of how much I am paying for the product. If the product is well priced and the service was good I have been known to tip 100% for excellent service. Now that everything is nearly double the cost of what it used to be I am more inclined to tip 50 cents to a dollar max.
They should be paying exceptionally well for what they are charging, but we know that isn't the case. I don't have unlimited wealth to spend either, fuck me for being poor and wanting some comfort "restaurant" food occasionally.
I really like the space opera of star wars, but I also really like star trek, they are both good. except for the new star wars, at least the first 6 actually had a relatively consistent message.
A downside I never really thought of... is it more like a severe peanut allergy or like some sort of lactose intolerance?
Honestly sounds like a disaster, what stops someone from controlling information by aggressively seed-boxing their chosen agenda?
Best I can offer is a couple a get well soon cards for the boat and your bank account.
Are there people that can afford stuff anymore?

First question:
And what you are replying to is the output from my second question:
Y'all need better AI :) The one I "use" gives a good argument in favor of the musk is a fascist interpretation
my partner is going to a psych today and I'll be going too if it proves to be affordable
How do I look? I've been feeling very euphoric with the new clothes but nervous if I pass or not..
But I've at least been feeling super cute lately and I try to push the doubts down. ^-^
Update: Thanks to a few of y'all who got me to look at things differently I think there was a miscommunication. I called my mom, and sorta cleared things up, they said they thought that my message out to them was saying I was planning on celebrating trans day of visibility, and not just mentioning it off hand after accepting the invite. I wouldn't be honest if I didn't say I am not fully convinced but I love them enough to forgive. Things have been rocky with them, my dad is teetering on the edge of ultra-conservative and still misgenders and dead-names me. In my mind there was a very real possibility my dad told my mom to dis-invite us after knowing it was a trans day.

Kinda posting to just vent, family instantly cancelled when I just mentioned it was a trans awareness day.
Crazy thing is they know me, they know we're not religious, they know that all we'd like to do is just see family (most importantly the two doggos.) And now I'm not going to be getting to do that and I just feel pretty hurt after this. I've sent some messages back and forth and they've re-invited us, but without a clear explanation or sincere apology, my partner doesn't feel comfortable around them now. I agree with her, so we won't be going.
This is the first overtly discriminatory thing I have experienced from them, and it is just so strange this is what hill they decided to claim.
I hate being a social war politic pawn, any other situation, birthday falling on the same day, solar event, or an "acceptable" awareness day, would have been met with open arms. They've just treated us as degenerates.
I wasn't expecting or wanting anything, other than perhaps a minor acknowledgement, just getting cancelled on is bizarre and I can only see it as hateful or at least extremely overly defensive over my perceived motives?
Well idk after this I feel like on march 31st it would have been really fun if I spent the day misgendering them so they could experience a taste of some of the experiences I have. But I'm still just hurt, I would have loved to get a hug from my mom and sis and pet the dogs.
Hopefully this follows the rule and venting is ok, this is my first post here and I would have rather it be something more lighthearted but I just want support and validation after this.
Oh good, everyone just hates sex. Glad we're finally doing something about it.
