Trading stocks only radicalized me more. Lunch at a fast food spot is now over $15. Meanwhile it's possible to make a "trade" that nets more profit than a Popeyes employee earns in a day of work.
This can't last... or can it?

I went to a McDonald's the other day for the first time in forever and the meal prices were more than twice what I remember them being. A large milkshake was like 5 dollars! For fucking McDonalds!
"Actually if you game the meal deal system by downloading the app you can save money on the listed price so that's a you problem."
I HATE BURGER CLOWN CALVINISM
I've said it before and I'll say it again: if I get a time machine I'm leaving Baby Hitler alone and I'm shooting John Calvin.
remember when a membership was just a plastic barcode on your keychain? And not cpu cycles and a dedicated space in your pocket computer's storage (still won't work without megabytes of wifi, though)
Capitalism in 2024 means playing a minigame on your phone so you can afford fast food and groceries

Cheeseburgers
were 39¢ when I worked at McDonald's.
That was a Tuesday or thursday special when I was in high school.
I survived on McDoubles in college 8 years ago and they were like $1.09. now they are around $3.25
2 for $4 if you order in the app (aka sell more of your data for a discount)
That's pretty good but I can't eat McDonald's anymore anyway since
and even their fries are made with bone tallow. Also I try to keep my data harvesting to a minimum after getting rid of Facebook, Twitter, etc.
To be honest, it's not even worth it or nourishing food at all. But I don't know what I would do for food if I was on my college budget these days
Protein bars are super portable. I wish meal bars from those meal replacement shake companies like Soylent and Huel didn't suck and weren't so expensive. Otherwise, I lived like 2 blocks aware from school so something like steams rice and veggies and a cheap protein wouldn't have been too far out of the question.
When was this? 1952?
A shake? Milk and ice cream? It costs five dollars? You don't put bourbon in it or anything?
And that's if the machine is working!
