They also employ less people than actual grocery stores, and they offer lower quality/more processed products and almost no fresh produce or goods, which leads to increased health risks (and affects children’s development and eventually people’s education levels, earning potential, and so on). And paying less employees…

I went on at length responding to the OP, but “I mean, snap your fingers and have them disappear...are the people who previously bought stuff from these stores now better off?” is looking at the problem backwards. These communities might have had better options, grocery stores with better overall prices and higher…

to you and Inspector hammer, this brief summary didn’t really get at a lot of the deeper issues. Basically, Dollar stores often push out grocery stores, frequently in areas where people are poor and don’t have a lot of options or transportation. Dollar stores have a smaller physical footprint, which means less rent,…

In that case they should mix it up a little and add “Stolen Election”, “Covid Conspiracy”, “Build the Wall” to their lines to make it easier to identify them as such...I guess?

She went from “lucky enough to be held accountable for past gross behavior” to “im caaaaaaaaaaancelled and depressed because no one is paying attention to me on social media, how will my THIRTY FIVE million people that follow me see what i have to saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay since im caaaaaancelled.”

1. The game libraries can’t be compared.

Implying Sony has the capital to get into a bidding war with Microsoft is also not true in the slightest but that seems to be what you’re doing. 

You’re right that this is about two very different strategies, but I think that it’s not just about marquee console-sellers for Sony. After all, Returnal is the most AAA-game Housmarque has ever made, and it’s arguably a high-end AA. It is most notable for being a next-gen only exclusive at a time when nothing else was…

Thank you; I’m rather proud of it.

“We have less money than our rival” is certainly a strange attempt at a burn. 

Right? I wouldn’t have bothered buying a PS4 Pro if I could’ve played all those games, plus Spider-Man, on Xbox instead. Spider-Man is particularly egregious considering it came from a studio Sony bought, it’s literally the exact same situation here, but Insomniac didn’t come out with a stupid ass apology, instead…

Except that Starfield and Redfall are not existing IPs that Sony has had on their consoles. They didn’t come out saying ES6 or FO5 will be Xbox exclusives did they? Sony has bought several 3rd party studios that have made Xbox games, but are now Sony exclusive.

Money for nothin’, gifs for free

Why in the world do you care at all? No one is making you watch it. If Ninja started streaming in trunks, some people would like it and some wouldn’t, like literally every other thing he does - again, why do you care? Your idea of what Twitch is “for” is utterly imaginary, and exists only in your brain. Instead of…

A reminder to everyone:

Although it is a 2 party system, I think it helps to look at it more like the British parliamentary system where they have to build a consensus amongst people with differing views.  That’s especially hard to do when the view of nearly 50 senators is “No to anything you suggest no matter what it is.”

A 50/50 split took away the republican majority. It didn’t create a democratic one and most certainly didn’t create a progressive one.

Even more important than police reform — ELECTIONS. Want to still have a democracy in 5 years?

If you are still making 80K as an individual or 160K as a couple, you do not need an extra $1400.

They should cut the foreign aid and support to business over profit cap, but it sounds worse than it is. If you are still making 80K as an individual or 160K as a couple, you do not need an extra $1400. The joke of the matter is the people that have no income or have lost a good percentage of it, will have only…
