When money was actually worth something, gold and silver, now its just digits on a screen.

Places that have no cash payments! WTF
I went to Tesco last week for a couple of things …. Went to the checkout to pay and when I pulled out cash the young cashier kindly offered to move me to a different till as she was only accepting card payment… how can I not pay cash at a till in a supermarket ffs
 

This is the biggest economic threat we all face, especially the younger generation. As things become increasingly corporatized, these corporation will quite easily replace humans with AI...it is happening already in some sectors, but will certainly happen in other sectors: medicine, transportation, education, etc.

Where will people find employment?
This is why Musk, Thiel et al are acting the way they are. They need scapegoats to protect them from what's just down the road.

The want to replace us useless eaters with AI, and we can all die for what they care, as long as they get to rule the remains.

Mate ... A bloke on holiday with us last Summer wanted to change money up into Euros.I sent him to the bank.He was told they don't do it,and he would have to go to a Beauro de change 20 mins away.There is only 2 on the FFFIN Island. I ended up changing it for him myself.
 

What do you mean by woke agenda?
It's the most basic of takes to blame the current state of the world on the 'woke agenda'. "Woke" started as a term about social awareness, but it’s now a politicised buzzword. It became a buzzword to criticise the LGBTQ community, mainly the trans community.

Since around 2016 Conservative politicians and media used trans issues as a focal point to criticise "woke ideology." Social media has amplified debates over trans rights, with both progressives and conservatives using the issue to rally support for their broader ideologies, Many of these debates involve misinformation and sensationalism, making it appear as if "being woke" is mostly about trans activism, even though it’s much broader.

DEI is essentially the modern-day version of "woke." The term is favoured by the MAGA crowd because it encompasses all minority groups, including people of colour, individuals with disabilities, and those from low-income backgrounds.

It’s not the billionaire (soon-to-be trillionaire) accelerationist techno-feudalist barons who are the problem—it’s the guy who got a ramp installed through a government-funded inclusion policy so he can get to work. Or maybe it’s students from poor, disadvantaged backgrounds receiving grants for their education. Or black airline hostesses. That’s who’s supposedly causing inflation and price gouging.

DEI is MAGAt code for the n-word.
 
I remember it being rare to have to pay to park a car anywhere. The absolute cheek of it!

It is now normal and people don't raise an eyebrow about being utterly fleeced for having the temerity to park and visit a deserted high street.

You were doing so well there, a strong start (double space again, why!?) then you wavered, then crash landed on your head to finish.
