So, any MAGA / Trump-voter types out there, if you just had your long-held summer vacation flights cancelled out from under you, have fun booking new tickets now that ticket prices have doubled due to inflated fuel costs because Dipshit Donnie started the next forever war in the middle east. At least you know who to blame!
To any sane people out there also affected by this, you have my empathy.

Philosopher journalist Robert D. Kaplan talking about fun feelgood
uplifting stuff:

Why rejoice in the misfortune of others
One way to feel my social status improving is if someone else lowers theirs. And so, when I see someone mess up in ways that cause them to lose face, and thus lose social status, I can feel a burst of satisfaction as my own status is raised, at no cost to me.

"This is a confession. I love daytime TV. I smoke, even though I officially gave up years ago. I’m often late, and usually lie about why. And sometimes I feel good when others feel bad.
"The Japanese have a saying: “The misfortunes of others taste like honey.” […] In Hebrew enjoying other people’s catastrophes is 'simcha la‑ed'."

#Schadenfreude from spectating line-rage (https://youtu.be/SKnb_hE5V4g) aside, If I have more than two items Ill never use #self #checkout no matter how long the wait for a #cashier line is.
Thats how they get you, those #enshittifying bastards of retail, isn't it? They're already price gouging you *because they can*. Now they're abolishing cashiers "for your convenience" but we all know `its so they don't have to pay as many people`.
