Lyft is a "sanctuary" employer and I no longer support them.

Wow What a surprise, I did not expect to see you here James!

On a completely related, but unrelated note, Ben you should seriously consider YouTube videos for all your flights. It takes effort but the amount of premium cabin you travel you have no idea how much money you would've made through google by now

I agree with RD ^, even just posting more regularly on Instagram would up his media impressions like crazy. Insta storying the whole trip and multiple posts with links to his online reviews would expand his business model and interaction with US!!!!!

Consider that @lucky !

Not to be a buzzkill, but primarily animal-based diets are killing us AND our planet. This isn't going to help lower chronic diseases/deaths and the destruction of our earth.

I've been watching too many Netflix documentaries 😉

You do you, Gerardo. I don't really believe in lesbianism or veganism or whatever you crazy kids call it these days, so I'll stay with my carnivore diet.

In terms of Taco Mode - I guess there must be a demand that hasn't been met. Or rather, it's potentially been awkward for drivers with riders who want to go to a fastfood place.

This a) concentrates demand at Taco Bell rather than at whatever place comes first (let's face it, if I'm tipsy and hungry I'll happily substitute a taco with a big mac) and b) aligns expectations between drivers and riders. Don't want people eating in your car? Don't opt in to Taco Mode.

I think it's clever.
