Sounds like a made up "fact"
The more we don't tip the more it becomes normalized. I've stopped tipping all counter service other than bartenders. At first I felt guilty but the more I did it the more it became normal to me.
Whoops looks like you dropped some letters there. Here you go: "uck"
I think these kinds of things wouldn't appeal to most kids. But I do worry a lot about those with body dysmorphia feeling desperate and irrational trying to find a solution.
Yeah I've put about 5 hrs off and on and the entire time just feel like I'm fucking it all up.
But the direction is certainly heading towards the realm of cable prices...
- Netflix: $15.49
- Amazon Prime Video: $14.99
- Apple TV+: $6.99
- HBO Max: $15.99
- Disney+: $10.99
- Hulu: $14.99
Total: $79.44 per month
So maybe when you account for inflation it is still only half of what cable costs,.perhaps. but those are the cheaper plans. For HDR support for Netflix it's like $25, and it's the reason I cancelled Netflix.
I don't think the meme is dumb, just ahead of it's time, but it's calling out what is certainly happening.
Most streaming services now include ads in the paid subscription.
Inch the ad ratio and prices up another 40% and we are getting pretty close to cable experience/cost. And that's only a few years away when we look at how much costs have raised over the last 10 yrs.
If each service raises price $1/month every year and you have 6 services, then in 5 yrs you're paying $30 more per month, prob around $100+.
Ok let's poll Lemmy. Upvote me if you can. Downvote me if you can't. I can so I'll keep my own upvote.
Real question: what do anarchists expect society to do/become and why is it better?

Thanks! That's all I was looking for... appreciate you!
