  • Absolutely mind-boggling how you can use doordash 2-3+ times a day and not ONCE think “hey maybe today I’ll venture a little bit and order food from a cool local restaurant instead of a junk food chain”

    I order doordash maybe once every 3 months and usually try something new; Thai, Pakistani, Guatemalan, etc. If I had the money to get restaurant food more in general I would constantly be trying stuff from different cultures. Not saying I never go to fast food restaurants but I find it so fucking odd how anyone can choose slop day after day. And the only remotely non-American/European item on the list is a gentrified gringo Mexican chain






  • dont-laugh I love how some of the opening lines talks about interviewing a single Chinese person failing to run a business

    One entrepreneur interviewed by The Wall Street Journal said that one of his businesses, a distributor for LED screens based in Shenzhen, is suffering from widening losses as overseas orders dry up, leading him to slash prices to compete for domestic clients. Having laid off more than 50 out of 120 staff since 2022, he said he is contemplating whether to shut the business this year.
