Starbuck's coffee always tastes burned, no matter where you go. I loathe the taste, so I don't go into Starbuck's unless it's the ONLY coffee place around. And now that Starbuck's has called cops to arrest and handcuff and perp walk two African American men who were waiting for another man before they ordered, I have even less reason to go there. How many times have I seen (white) people sitting at Starbuck's, using their computers, and ordering nothing? How often have (white) people toodled in, used the bathroom, and left without purchasing anything? Starbuck's one-day seminar in how to treat POC isn't going to help.

I keep hoping San Francisco will do that, but they just keep building luxury apartments for the tech bros, which keeps pushing rents higher.

That quote sounds so Valley Girl. Like, there are places? Churches, maybe? Where homeless people can sleep and eat? Like, they could live there.

Apparently she knows nothing about churches, either.

Look at her recent tweet about Samantha Bee and Roseanne. She just highlighted why many will never trust white feminism. Megyn has a long history being racist thanks her fox news years but Samantha Bee calling Ivanka a feckless c-nt was too much.

I take my kid all the time, but then I'm not terrified of homeless people using the bathroom.

After thoroughly testing I've concluded that Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf ("The Bean") has the best coffee. Too bad there are so few outlets in San Diego.

No, I believe diagnosis requires an anal probe.

Around here, a lot of Starbucks locations have signs advertising themselves as a safe place for LGBTQ+ people to go if they're being harrassed on the street; they'll let you hang out as long as necessary, and they'll call the police if you need them.

The signs are clearly old, though; they need to be updated to include so many more people who get harrassed by potentially violent RWNJs just for walking down the street these days.

My dentist's office has never had a TV. Instead they have a very large wall aquarium. I quite enjoy looking at the fish, they alternate between being soothing and entertaining.

Between big hire Megyn Kelly and protecting Matt Lauer Andy Lack seems to be batting a thousand these days. The real question is : WHY HASN'T NBC FIRED HIM YET?

It's probably too expensive to buy him out of his contract.

Last time I was at the radiology waiting room, the TV was tuned to the Game Show Channel, which was showing "Match Game 75!"
