OK it seems like the universe heard me talking about building up enmity with old people,
so it answered my vibrations with an eccentric fedora’d old man at the gas station who was complaining about the five extra cents per gallon for the credit card so I engaged him in conversation (which he was extremely enthusiastic about) regarding service fees and dynamic pricing taking over things another forms of monopoly rents. Also, I learned that the guy who did bar rescue allegedly invented the Ticket website service fee. I’ll have to check if that’s really true.
Not only did I immediately encounter 1️⃣ an opportunity to peacefully disengage a deeply uncomfortable and unresponsive employee from an overenthusiastic man allowing agitated people to pay for their gas 2️⃣ I also found a guy who feels relieved to be able to bitch about something to other people like I mentioned before. Maybe I should utilize the Power of Attraction more. I should do amphetamines.
What I’ve learned here on ActivityPub is that old people love it when you recommend them books especially about the financialization of everything.
