no offense but some of you should be earning your chippy hike badges instead of whatever it is you’re doing on here
Item: Badge of the Chippy Hike; allows the wearer to proudly inform the world that they once walked to a nearby chip shop and ate some chips. It’s like those Pilgrim Badges that Medieval travelers would wear
i will never care about the met gala beacuse i know in my heart if you gave a drag queen 45$ and three days they could make something completely out of this world that out every single celeb to shame
i can answer this! the met gala is the main source of funding for the metropolitan museum’s costume institute, which houses something like 30k pieces of surviving historical clothing, shoes, accessories, etc. dating all the way back to the 15th century. the costume institute is the only department of the met that has to fund itself; ticket sales and donations are the institute’s only other sources of funding. the met gala brings in millions of dollars to the institute
i know it seems like just a bunch of rich people flaunting their wealth, but it’s actually what’s paying for the upkeep of all of these pieces of fashion history and keeping them available for public view, instead of in private collections. plus we get to laugh at rich people who don’t know how themes work
UPS drivers making more money will help all workers make more money.
Labor united helps all labor. Rising wages is not zero sum.
Don’t fall for ‘divide and conquer’ rhetoric from the Establishment. They fear the power and influence of worker solidarity.
Not only that but a Class A CDL can take thousands of dollars to get, and road experience comes as HARD LESSONS.
And it is freekin HARD to get on at UPS. I’ve been on the road as a driver for 2 years and I got ghosted by them. Plus they work in all (hot, storming, freezing) weather and all traffic conditions. GIVE THEM THE FREEKING $42 AN HOUR.
I had a company offer me $16 an hour for Class A CDL work. They would not have had the AUDACITY to lowball me like that if the going rate in the industry was where it should be. I’m making more than that frying chicken.
Wanna know why some store shelves are empty and there are still supply chain problems? Truckers don’t want to put up with your stupid ass in traffic to bring your “stuff” to the stores for $16 an hour.
Now EVERY member of the original Tsubasa family has a name that wasn’t originally theirs.
Fai took them name of his twin. Mokona is a copy of the [Magic Knight Rayearth] Mokona, and so is called Mokona Modoki to differentiate between them. Sakura and Syaoran are clones named after the people they were cloned from, so the names aren’t “theirs” as much as they inherited them (like with Syaoran’s birthday not being his either, but being copied from Sakura’s).
And now KUROGANE isn’t named KUROGANE EITHER.
THEY’RE ALL MATCHING.
And now they ALL have a identity that they’ve forged themselves, built from the ground up and adopted to better suit the people they’ve become along the way.
