We're highly competitive
I worked at an American multinational company. When discussing the benefits they told me they had a parking garage. I didn't even have a car.

Peak efficiency achieved
Back when I started college, my roommate and I bought a TV. It was a small flatscreen CRT. We took it out of the box, filled the box with a bunch of wrappers and empty bags and smaller boxes, and used that as the TV stand. We did use the styrofoam that came in the TV box to sit down. We lived in that apartment three years. Eventually got a sofa and chairs. Not a TV stand, though. We still had the box. Kept us humble. Good times.

In tourism, Mexico and Canada are not considered "overseas" but "cross-border". It's much bigger news because overseas visitors are high spenders and stay for longer than cross-border visitors.

Come on, it's a little social media's fault, too. They also benefit from these kids staying stupid and unquestioning. I agree with everything else you said, though.

For all its faults, one thing I deeply value about Lemmy is the lack of ridicule even when sharing the most niche and out-there interests and hobbies.
