nothing she said was factually wrong

One cannot have it both ways. I don’t like hypocrisy on either side. If this was an Israeli model with anti-Palestinian tweets, this site would be calling for her head. This is a problematic and complicated issue, and both Palestinian and Israeli children have died in this conflict.

Hijabs are still representative of one of the worst forms of patriarchy on a global scale. No amount of good lighting and Photoshop can change that.

I have zero issue with this. Maybe real grocery stores will finally figure out that PEOPLE FUCKING HATE STANDING IN THE CHECK-OUT LINE AND DO SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE ABOUT IT.

You had a $1,500 beater when you were 16? You spoiled Richy-Rich rat-bastard! When I were a lad all I could afford was a $1,000 car and I had to work 34 hours every day scraping the slag out of blast furnaces with me bare hands and when I got home my dad would kill me and dance about on my grave singing Hallelujah.

Didn’t say that.

As I understand it, in exchange for having to go through the DACA debate again in 3 weeks time (still well in advance of the program actually expiring) with the possibility of another shutdown on the table, CHIP got funded for the next 6 years. So this headline is really petty and ignorant.

You’re like Rafi from The League, but somehow worse and stupider.

I was in Italy a month ago, and I went to a supermarket that worked very similar to this. You get your cart and a scanner box when you enter the store, then you start shopping. When you pick up an item, you scan it & then put it in your cart, and the box keeps a running total as you shop. When you get to the checkout,…

Idk.. I rather there be job growth in automation, coding, robotics, etc than grocery store employment...

It’s not amazon’s fault that our tax structure favors the rich. automation is helpful to humanity if we have the right policies in place. besides retail jobs suck.

CHIP is funded, WH is out of the picture, and Feb 8 deadline is all about DACA. It’s not as grim as people are making it out to be.

Hmm, my knee jerk reaction to this is “What the fuck you spineless losers. You had them pinned!!!” but seeing that both Murray and Cantwell signaled they will vote for it (I’m a Washingtonian) makes me think there is some deep level politicking going on. I trust them not to do something stupid, I’m willing to let it…

Oh, please - this is a test store, expecting them to have support for food stamps out the gate is pretty absurd.

and just 11 minutes later, local police alerted her that her Jeep’s license plate was caught going through a traffic signal just outside of the parking lot.

Why is that hard to believe? Bear in mind, at 16, you have no bills. At all. You can put all of your money into the car. The payment, if she financed all of it would be ~$450/mo. So basically she has to make $600 a month before taxes to make the payment. in MA thats 55hrs of work at minimum wage, just 13 per week.

Wait... they alerted her after 11 minutes but she didn’t leave until 39 minutes? She shopped for 28 minutes AFTER the police told her it had been stolen?

Did I miss the part of the story where it said let’s pick apart this girls finances to prove she didn’t buy her own Jeep?

Wait. The police call you if you run a light? When did this become a thing?

Like many people, I saw that this was a 16y/o and was prepared to write this off as another spoiled kid (half my HS drove jeeps like this) and assume the parents would just buy them a new one.
