"Gusto utilizes a redundant system of leading banking partners to facilitate our payroll processing and services to provide peace of mind for the unexpected." was the interesting part to me. I wonder if this is standard practice.

I personally have replaced it with fucktard, just so there isn't any confusion. Also I'm bringing back "special".

I recently had a comment on another site flagged by a bot for using ableist language when I used the world "insane". It was a first for me as well. Will go with "batshit" next time.

"If this resonated with you, message me on Twitter" That makes the post ring rather hollow to me. It sounds like they want to monetize their experience of quitting and rejoining nature. Which basically reads like another version o

What is this junk? I can't think of any I have bought or needed in many years? Isn't the onus just as much on us as consumers?
