Ah yes, pay $5m to live where other people get deported despite their legal status. Only a fucking moron will get one.

No but would you let your hologram house maid date your single dad?

Huh. Is that good or bad?

I don’t pay attention to TikTok. I’m not on there.

Why the fuck does this dude care so much about one social media platform being available here? Is he perving on dancing teenagers?

Trump: I am very pleased with the patriotic actions of the Proud Boys…

AG: Sir. They had to give up their trademark to a Black church.

Trump: I am very upset with the anti-American actions of the Proud Boys…

Probably something like this.

I don’t understand this. Anyways, how’s your sex life?

That is something that might make Kurt roll over in his grave.

Bro, that song is about a child being born.

Anyone wondering what a “good” president in Philippines looks like, I was made (as a U.S. born Pinoy) to understand this: celebrities go into government because they are celebrities. In my family we used to joke that at the height of Justin Bieber’s popularity, he would get elected if he was Filipino. Just wanted to contrast things.

No joke, Manny Pacquiao was a senator at one time.

Which is?

EDIT: The current government at the time of his death didn’t even want him transported back to the country. He had been in Hawaii for medical treatment. Eventually he got put in a mausoleum. In 2016 when he finally did get a burial, that sparked protest. If you think something other than ex-president can be used as a more appropriate label, I would like to know.

I thought that was a koala.

Got tetanus updated. Apparently that was recommended on my last medical checkup.

I am unable to find a news report now, but I am certain I read one back in 2018 or 2019. I believe that Conservation International (an organization that helped develop the C.A.F.E. standard the company uses) was discovered covering up the certification of one of the farms in Brazil. As I remember reading, that a farm was at the time listed somewhere as being certified but after slave labor was discovered, CI uncertified the farm and attempted to claim it failed to meet the C.A.F.E. standards, thus never was awarded certification. They weren’t saying the certification was revoked; it never had any.

Here are three different reports regarding three different instances in Brazil. https://news.mongabay.com/2019/05/slave-labor-found-at-second-starbucks-certified-brazilian-coffee-farm/

Here is one on the Guatemala incident. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2020/mar/01/children-work-for-pittance-to-pick-coffee-beans-used-by-starbucks-and-nespresso

So I guess you don’t mind having to bury it if it catches fire, because they reach insane temperatures. Or the fact that raccoons think they are dumpsters.

Just so people are aware, Starbucks was caught buying from farms in Brazil multiple times that used slave labor. In Guatemala, along with Nestle, were caught buying from farm(s?) that used child labor.

EDIT: On top of this the company partnered with Conservation International to certify the farms met the company’s standards. The incident in Brazil saw CI trying to coverup the certification of that farm. Also CI is involved with arms dealing.

EDIT 2: Their retail products have the claim “100% Ethically Sourced”. That is a lie.

Want a worse number? Back in 2019, the price of commodity was at less than a $1. Starbucks, at the time made up 3% of the world’s production. They decided to give $20m to their farmers. Did it help? Well based on available financial data at the time, $20m was approximately single afternoon’s profit for the company. A SINGLE FUCKING AFTERNOON! https://sprudge.com/starbucks-would-prefer-you-dont-think-too-hard-about-that-20m-relief-fund-151839.html
