Why would someone live in new york city if they don't make $180k? Do you realize how out of touch the implications of that question are? There are so many nuances to life that drive people to be in certain places. NYC is a huge metropo

And this is in a town with no other reasonable clubs because the rent is way too high. This was essentially the locals' last known accessible hangout spot, and a huge portion of attendees stand with the performer. All the attendees kno

Also, you can flip that Mark Fisher perspective around: the 20th century fetishization of "something that has never been done" now kind of seems like a quaint pre-information era fallacy. We now know that everything's a remix

Of course you're gonna have some like me chiming in with: actually yes underground culture still exists. Today's punk/alternative ideology is to reject the ad driven visibility industry. Thus it is invisible to everyone not a

Imagine the number of people who aren't tipping throughout their workday. You don't matter to them enough for them to lay their livlihood on the line for "revenge", I promise.

Still poor decision to pull the article altogether. Why not just tell the public? What's the big deal.

I think teens and young adults merely tolerate it because it's what they've been given. Any seemingly positive embrace of such drivel is actually an adaptation of it into something more culturally meaningful and better coded to el

I don't think it's too difficult to infer that siloed irrelevance etc may be the case, doesn't seem like much of a flipside to critically studying negative reviews

I think giphy more tried to play the analytics tracking angle. They made it prohibitively difficult to right click > copy .gif url from their site seemingly so they could control sharing through trackable means

If this were the only option, I bet most people would realize how much of the web really doesn't benefit them in any meaningful way, but merely gets used because it's there, and can be removed from their lives with minimal grief

Didnt walmart make the mom n pop so much shittier to begin with though. One could expect numerous local options for the thing you want to purchase in absence of the walmart, so one or two of them having a bad week isn't necessarily pas

I'd like to see what people have to say about local businesses that they wouldn't say with their irl identity, though. If you can't understand why someone wouldn't say certain things using their irl id, and how those thi

OP means they want to leave anonymous reviews. Imagine a scenario where you want to hide your identity from the business owner, a family member, etc. A local school teacher is disincentivized from warning future customers to a local sex sto
