For Xmas::::
Don't give me a #Amazon Echo
-get a #raspberrypi
Don't get me a ebook of play store
-get me a physical copy (at least I can sell it if I hate it)
Don't buy me a #fitbit
-get me a #pinetime or #pebble
------------------------------------------------------------------
Tldr; don't buy me something that traps me in a contract, get me something that enables my freedom.

I've heard many reasons- I'm not sure on a single generalisation.
The formerly unemployed I know if personally are taking advantage of the openings being made.
I wouldn't be surprised if immigrants, refugees and other desperate people started picking up where other people left off.
>> They took my job!
<< MF, you left and I had a small business to run- they deserve it.
@icedquinn
Meanwhile- many businesses in the US are facing a shortage of staff as people stop working altogether.
Rumors are that legislation will soon pass that unless people prove they were actively job hunting, they'll have to pay back unemployment via tax returns.

Technically, both men and women have muscular systems-though they may vary slightly in a few select areas. Overall, they are comparatively the same when cross-examined with any other species, family, etc.
Personally, I prefer to have a s.o. who has at least _some_ muscle. I don't want to break anyone- I just like playing with my food.

I like the original Starbucks logo better than the new one.
