Sounds tempting, but I just don’t know where I’d put it. I don’t suppose you’ve got an NFT of that bridge available for purchase? Because then you’ve got yourself a customer, Mister.

Not to worry, folks. I’m sure they’ll bring those prices right back down just as soon as those supply chain issues get sorted.

I thought about that, but then I remembered that flop objectivist dating site for Ayn Rand lovers.

I’ve never stood in a line for a bathroom at Disney. If there’s one thing they do well, it’s provide plentiful shitters. Though I’d rather stand in line for a bathroom than for a character meet and greet. At least at the end of the line at the bathroom, you get a sense of relief.

But the price sensitivity (or lack of it) at Disney resorts can accommodate it.

They are apparently also experiencing a cheese shortage. A few locations serve things like pretzels with beer cheese/pub cheese and there is a shortage of it so they swap out for the generic nacho cheese but didn’t adjust the prices.

Of course you can be mad at Disney for raising prices. They are doing so purely to protect their profit margins and meet targets, they are passing the cost on to their customers so that their executives can still get their fat bonus checks at the end of the financial year. The fact that we accept that as the way…

Can’t wait to see it shut down after much whining because it’s only 12% women.

Universal Studios is the better park, anyway.

Point being there’s a lot of data out there suggesting that a lot of companies are using the “everything is shitty, of course we have to raise prices” as cover for simply raising their profit margins. Yes, there’s lots of issues and many companies are having to raise prices in response to actual upstream pressures.…

I’m not here to debate the crop size of Florida’s orange harvest but a quick look at the futures chart for Frozen Concentrated Orange Juice shows a current price of $1.35 per pound compared to a 15 year median and average of $1.36.

Inflation is real, but also, a lot of companies are just jacking prices up because they can and are blaming it on inflation.

“So, you know, they could probably do everyone a solid and cover the rising costs on their end, if they wanted to.”

I bit and read the whole thing. Although she looks like a teenager in that photo, her age is clearly stated as 23. Pursuing a girl who looks like a minor versus is a minor are two very different things. The way it was written was so decontextualized, that it was very hard to understand what was happening. Honestly,…

For sure. But I still believe that Cruz and Hawley are “smart” enough to know they’re absolutely full of shit, and craven enough to play this game to hold onto their cushy Senate seats, in the hopes that someday they’ll be president...unlike the MTGs, Boeberts, et al., who I think are so terrifyingly dumb, to the…

I mean you can definitely be a dumb Ivy-educated lawyer though

I mean Cruz and Hawley aren’t dumb, they are Ivy-educated lawyers. They KNOW they’re absolutely full of shit. I read an anonymous quote from a former Republican insider/strategist somewhere that said something like of “to succeed in today’s Republican Party, you have to go full ret**d”. I guess that’s what’s happening…

I learned the hard way to be extra sure I washed all of the oil from cutting up jalapenos off of my hands before removing my contact lenses. 

Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley are seditious traitors.

It boggles my mind that people care this much about this issue. For almost all of us, sports will end in high school, and the number of people who will undergo hormone therapy and live life as a trans person in order to win gold at the olympics in a women’s event, and also have been good enough before transition to do…
