"Legal tender for all debts public and private" is a guarantee backed by the treasury. if you owe the restaurant a debt, they are legally obligated to accept cash tender. Note that you have to actually owe them, you can't demand they accept cash tender up front, they have the right to refuse the terms of sale. if you can successfully argue their card only policy was not successfully communicated, then you have a case. I ANAL.

I am fucking tired of this shitty behavior.

I don't like the content they post (it's indistinguishable from botspam) and I especially don't like the fact that I can't just block it. Every week it's a new spam account.

Blocking is a user ban. Making so many new accounts is (from a personal, user-experience level only) very much like ban evasion in that view. The experience fucking blows.

I get that a lot of people are digging what cm0002 posts, and I don't mind that they are getting off to it. I don't, and I'm tired of playing block wak a mole. I don't know what else to do but to keep blocking every time they get bored and make (for some reason???) yet another (over twenty and growing!) account on a new instance. I could see two or even three for like, you want to keep a porn account separate from public, or you want a mander persona and a world persona or something, but this is so supermuch not that.

If people don't like me, and no doubt I'm on a lot of people's blocklists (for good reason...), they can block my single name and move on with their lives and never have to deal with my manic bullshit ever again. More power to them, go off and slay, queen, it's a great feature of this broad community.

Is it really too much to ask to be shown the same courtesy?

as for that, all their stock trades are public info. just look for the ones that are consistently beating the stock market (hint: it's all of them, but you have to dig a bit for most. Pelosi for instance proxies her buy orders through her husband so its slightly less obvious to us rubes what an obvious fucking insider trading scheme she ran)
