    Honestly was just the first example I could come up with, but the fact remains that a lot of things do consider ants to be harmless because they aren’t, like, hunting those things. Especially other small arthropods.

    I’m sure there are some hunting ant species (like the 200 army ant species), but most of them aren’t.










  • No, not for many years now. This all happened 2008-10. I threatened a restraining order, and claimed I was sending everything to my attorney, including over a year worth of unanswered monthly “still made at me?” type of messages, and never heard from them again.

    Several years later I learned they became a felon for sexual assault of another person (idk the person, but it does make keeping tabs on the stalker very easy as they are on the offender registry).

    Soon I’ll be moving away from the area entirely and I’ll feel a lot better.

    The self checkout at the grocery here makes you have a worker check and enter your coupons for you. Even though they have barcodes. And cameras galore. And they mail you dozens of coupons every week.

    What’s even the point of self checkout at that point? It took longer waiting for them to come check and approve my three coupons to save $1.50 than just going through regular cashier line, and I didn’t even get to avoid talking to someone. Did that twice and won’t do it again.

    If they want me to work for them, I’m gunna need an employee discount. I hate everything about self-checkout. I have yet to find an implementation of it that is better than the default cashier experience.

    (This is not meant as saying you are wrong for your preference ofc, I just don’t understand how people actually like them)
