What pisses me off more than anything is, despite the load he is carrying, he is initially kind. He’s more than happy to stop doing what he’s doing to take his phone out and tell the guy what time it is. And then this prick pranks him.
Can we start a GoFundMe for this guy A Hard-working father who wants to be at home with his kids In America, hard work is punished while laziness and goofiness are rewarded.

Look at the replies to all @redbaronpizza posts. The father stocking the grocery store being "pranked" and filmed has the whole internet behind him. Do the right thing Red Baron. Backup your employee. If you fire him the backlash will be much worse than the Bud Light backlash. You don't have the money or the lobbying power of Anheuser-Busch to survive it.
the run to the garage freezer was part of the warm up.

What really got me was how helpful Walt Z the Red Baron employee was. He stopped what he was doing and gave the "prankster" the time with a smile on his face. Only to be "pranked" with a 'fraud scam' prank. It almost seemed like he thought the guy was trying to fist bump him as a thank you and he went in to fist bump back. Only for it to be revealed he was "stolen" from.

I see that Richard is fine with teens harassing working people and want to get working people fired for the slightest offense
Chuds are amazing. I suspect this is fake. If real, he’s emotionally unstable and probably a menace to society.

Diane seems to be engaging in a bit of antinatalism
What an absolute loser. 50 years old, 4 kids, a mortgage and he works as what, a grocery stocker? Women need to be WAY pickier about who they reproduce with. Maybe he could be chill if he were doing his little grocery stocking job as a single man.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The man in the video is a Red Baron representative stocking frozen pizzas in a grocery store. He stated he has four kids and struggles to pay his mortgage amid long hours; no reports confirm he is 50 years old, and the clip shows him responding to a prank. dexerto.com/entertainment/… gofundme.com/f/support-a-ha… x.com/MrLeadslinger/…

every time someone argues Israel isn’t apartheid they point to the Arab parties but somehow never mention that the entire political system is crippled because every other party is now committed to never letting an Arab into government

Are you serious? Forget about the customer for a moment! A lot of gig workers multiapp for two reasons 1) each app company have different demand at different times at different markets 2) each app absolutely loves to play games with their gig workers Reducing the competition will put gig workers at greater risk and give other companies more control over them and their tips! This is a crap job market, and making things worse for people forced into gig work full time is just horrid
Calling DoorDash-Instacart a grocery monopoly only works if you leave out Walmart, the biggest online grocer in America (~37%), now offering 30-minute delivery in 33 markets. Local grocers need scale to compete with that, and this deal could help.

Why would they? This sculpture was inspired by the cathedral in Nagasaki that was destroyed by the atomic bomb. Since there were consecrated hosts inside, according to Catholic theology this makes Jesus himself a survivor of nuclear war.
I’ll Never Understand why Catholics Don’t Call out the Vatican over this?

Technically everybody can get free health care now. The trick is you have to commit a crime heinous enough that even liberals agree you must stay in jail. It’s messed up but the only Americans with a constitutional right to food, clothing, shelter & medical care are inmates.

This isn't accurate. It told her for HOURS to work with her doctos and it eventually caved to her demands to have it determine her taper.

you can't compete with rich people in the market and win. idk why people with no money are obsessed with putting themselves in situations for that to happen when creating more supply is the better play for those with less.
Yay we reduced housing supply by stopping all those luxury condo high-rises! Now the rich people are gonna *checks notes* outbid working class families for the more affordable units and exacerbate gentrification…

Geothermal development (a bipartisan favorite and vital for clean firm buildout) isn’t even on even terms with O&G. See our post on how BAAJA evens the score.

The barriers facing the grid & clean energy are asymmetrically worse than faced by O&G. Not only does this mean clean infrastructure stands to disproportionally benefit from BAAJA, but it’s tough to argue there’s a ton of new O&G suddenly becoming feasible.

Jonathan Haidt is once again attempting to claim that Facebook is secretly pressuring academics to discredit him. In reality he's discredited himself by pushing politically-driven pseudoscience slop for years now.

I know a family that wants to redevelop a lot they have into a family compound, so the sons and their families can live close to the parents If that’s not traditional and community, I don’t know what is
Replying to @MattBruenig
It's incredible to me that YIMBYs find it mysterious that people don't like change in their neighborhoods. "Explains a lot about why nobody wants to build housing." Was this not obvious to you before?

Haidt has used the millions of $ he's earned by pushing false claims and pseudoscience to smear ACTUAL academics who study the topic that he randomly declared himself an expert in apparently after getting 5150d. In any just world actual journalists would be reporting on this
