Damn! Just when I was about to continue never having bought anything from either of those!
Edit: Why does the WSJ need to ‘verify my device?’ What do they think it is? An otter?
Those checks are there to confirm that the visit is from a genuine browser (as opposed to a bot that is trying to scrape the content).
My local grocery store delivers higher quality for less money. Get fucked Amazon.
Noice. Sucks about the jobs though.
Amazon is great at failing at things. I’m so happy they ruined Whole Foods… and continue to make it worse.
Don’t care. I’ve never so much as seen either of them.
Fuck Jeff Bezos and fuck Amazon.

You know I think about this all the time and how Andy isn’t getting this shit.
Yeah, that really sealed the deal on it being Day Two at Amazon.

It was AI all along, but we forgot that it stands for “Always Indians”
I’ve been to one (was at the Metra station I had to go to on the regular.) it’s nothing special and easy to replace with any other convenience store
I know I’m a shitty person but being able to get over the $25 same day delivery threshold by ordering a few bottles of $2.50 GTS kombucha was pretty dope. Gonna miss my local Amazon Fresh that I’ve only been to once
