Companies that include "incentivized" or "sponsored" reviews in their review system are showing you just how dishonest they are and just how little they care about the customer experience.
This behaviour should be a huge red flag to avoid doing business with the company in the future.

Why do some film editors think that the soundtrack should be louder than the dialog and how do we get them all fired forever?
If your comedy special has "no subject is off limits" in the elevator pitch, you may be a hack.
Finally saw "The Cabin in the Woods" the other day. Been on my backlist forever. Great movie.
However, if anyone ever asks, I'll just describe it as "One of those movies that's confusing until Sigourney Weaver shows up to explain it."
People who take their dogs to public parks, watch their dogs shit, and then walk on like nothing happened...
They don't deserve dogs.

Nearly 50 House Democrats urge President Biden to revoke the US visa of former #Brazil President Bolsonaro. https://mcusercontent.com/e711646c72c197262ff8d3d32/files/b95e998f-0dbd-be48-e682-9cb27375cebb/2023.1.11_BolsonaroJan8Attack_Final.pdf
It's incredible how much of the evil in today's world can be traced back to Chris Rufo.

Without the right tools, balancing complex simulation games will make you want to chug molten lead.
With the right tools, though, it's pure zen. Tug a little here; push a little there. See where the sim strains and alleviate the pain.
Hours fly by.

The #MarsHelicopter and I are closer together than we’ve been in a while, and guess who I spotted resting on a dune between flights. Can you believe Ingenuity is gearing up for Flight #39? 🤯

Holy crap, George Santos finally discovered which line you have to cross to get Republicans to call for the resignation of one of their own.
Just overheard a guy say he recognized the instrumental muzak version of "Swinging on a Star" only because he's seen Hudson Hawk too many times, which, y'know: fair.
When did LensCrafters get so bougie? It looks like they're trying to turn this shitty shopping mall into Times Square.
Business owners: Make sure your website works.
If I click to your website from Google Maps and it 404s, then I'm assuming your business is gone too and I'm moving on.
Banning kids from watching kid-friendly drag shows by classifying them as "adult" is akin to banning kids from being seen to by a qualified nurse because there's so much nurse porn on the internet.

“There is no anti-democratic path to liberty. The majority will ultimately have its way, and the alternatives to getting it through democratic means are much worse. There’s no shortcut around persuasion. History is littered with examples of governments that tried to rule without free and fair elections and the result is only growing authoritarianism, a system of might makes right, and ultimately chaos protecting the rights of nobody.”

I will never understand how people who write APIs without documentation sleep at night.
