You DO actually hurt the low-wage workers, not the billionaire CEO/Owners of the company.
Source: I’ve had my paycheck, hours, and job cut due to shoplifting on more than one occasion. I’m not the only one.
Also, you know who they blame first for large numbers of shoplifters frequenting the store or lots of product going missing? The staff. You know what they do if they think a few people on staff might be stealing? They replace all of them. Regardless of whether they can prove it. Yes. That’s totally legal.
Stop acting like your shoplifting is some radical anti-capitalist statement. It isn’t. You’re only hurting the very people you claim to support. SOME stores have a certain amount they expect to lose to shoplifting, but not all of them do. It can vary even within a company.
And yes, stealing food when your hungry IS different from stealing $500 worth of makeup because you wanted it.
“good intrusive thoughts” i know you all get your entire scientific education off random tumblr posts but please for the love of god read even just one psych paper. im begging
or even just take an english class. “intrusive” means you don’t want them. they’re unwelcome. they can NEVER be fun or quirky or funny because by definition they are unsettling, unwelcome, and INTRUSIVE. jesus fucking christ
Maybe there should be an alternate term for thoughts that randomly show up in your mind but they’re actually good??
