To be fair, we’re all really fed up with etc here. The list of bullshit is so god damn long.

Capitalism: “Always remember we have hostages”
Remember, it’s only bad when “The Media” does it.
I’ve been saving my waste and refuse for this very bin
I have over 500 titles in my backlog of shame (loads of freebies, but still shameful). If I play a new game every week, it’ll take me 10 years to get through it.
What if some are absolute bangers and I sink 300+ hours in? I’ll never be finished!
But what if none of them are? For 10 years I’d have slogged through a quagmire of mediocrity for nothing other than to tick a series of boxes.
Take a bag, fill it with water, and grip it loosely at the top so all your fingers wrap around like a loose fist.
Now, without turning the bag, use your other hand to empty it by squeezing out the water.
You get most of it out, but there’s still some in there, even if you squeeze violently and it seems like nothing else can come out.
Also, for most of human history, if you’ve poisoned yourself ingesting something, chances are the next thing you’re ingesting is still poisoned. It’s only recently we’ve worked out distilled poison and purified water. So, biologically speaking, better to just be sick for a day so you can get to a different water/food source.
Because so much of that would put you off if you were on the receiving end.
As a human person, when a human person is on the other end, I do my best to be kind, empathetic, forgiving, and accommodating.
When some asshole wants to try and swing his dick around in an email, my instinct is “fuck that guy”
Maybe we need to come up with a way to deface oil company buildings that does make headlines
But why Stonehenge? Why not oil company buildings? I believe oil companies generally have buildings. Large buildings. With their names on them.
I think maybe just get rid of the bogus ones like “sleep” and “take a day off”.
Everything else you can do with a little time and effort. Most people with 30 minutes can’t opt to sleep in that time, that’d just be 30 minutes of laying down letting your brain try to make up the activity. And even fewer people can afford to say “I’m not coming in to work today”!
Anxiety has entered the chat
The real key is local bottling where local production isn’t possible.
Ship vats of Coca-Cola syrup to the 200 largest cities (more or less) in North America and create local bottle circulation.
Spice it up with local bottle designs or recycling marks. Now you’ve got novelty sales, collector sales, eco-conscious sales, ‘support local’ sales…
Folks aren’t themselves capital (anymore (mostly)) and just end up costing capital to keep them alive.
A true capitalist recognises this and despises folk for it.
Meanwhile the guy in the top left is just pleased as punch
