Eating the rich was a more tenable idea 100+ years ago, before it was fashionable for wealthy people to have nutritionists and personal trainers and whatnot. I.E. back when having a muscular / toned physic denoted physical labor (i.e. being poor) and rich people were mostly fat and had like gout and other such…

I don’t think there’s an official mandated policy on it here in Chicago like in the Bay area, but I went to both the Trader Joe’s and the Whole Foods that are closest to my apartment on Wednesday and both of them were forbidding people from bringing in their own reusable bags. They were also not charging the 7 cent…

You hit the nail on the head re: Colorado, it had the exact same issue as Utah and parts of CA like Tahoe - they waited way too long to shut down the ski resorts, and as a result not only did the small towns where those ski resorts lie become major hot spots but it also fostered the spread as wealthy vacationers…

My best friend is the brewmaster at a small kombucha brewery in suburban Chicago. During the current stay-at-home order the brewery is allowed to stay open since as a food/beverage distributor it is allowed to claim to be an essential business, but the owners have smartly decided to close the tap room. He’s still…

Loath as I am to praise the NFL, doing a simulcast on Nickelodeon with that broadcast being specifically geared towards kids is actually kind of brilliant. Youth participation in football is down (and will very likely only continue to drop) as parents become more and more reluctant to let their kids play a sport with…

I have to assume that Idaho Republicans thought (hoped) that the passage of these bills right now would be lost in the shuffle of the global pandemic and largely missed / ignored. Don’t let them get away with it

Maybe that’s the issue - maybe he’s trying to award the ventilator contract to one of his fucking hotels or something

I doubt Biden promised her anything, it’s not like he gives a fuck about her 4 supporters. Quite frankly the endorsement is probably out of spite and one that Biden probably doesn’t even want as knowing that she endorses him probably turns more people off of Biden than attracts them to him...

Trump or Carlson? Both? Both.

I’m pretty sure that “screwing over the people we allegedly serve, so long as we think we can get away with it” is the official motto of the GOP, no?

If I recall correctly, I’m not sure if any/all of the 10 Republicans who broke ranks have any significant military presences in their states, but I think that all 10 are up for reelection this November. That, moreso than the fact that some vets will be fucked over, is probably the main driver for this move as…

I dunno, without reading any of the rest of the article to get the rest of the context but just being aware of who she is (even only vaguely), it reads pretty clear to me that she is referring to how society would label her should she “shed the layers” not how she judges women who do just that

Yeah, that dude is complete shithead, but let’s not pretend that the grocery store is blameless. Any business is absolutely within its right to set a limit on how much of any item a single customer is allowed to purchase, and it is also within its right to refuse service at all to someone who’s being an ass. That…

It’s not just stupid, it’s callous and uncaring (which just seems very unlike Lebron). Lebron’s risk of contracting coronavirus will not be impacted by whether or not the stands are full, the only people he’s going to come in close enough contact with to contract the virus from (should they be carrying it) are his…

Emmit Smith was overrated and not nearly as good as Walter Payton or Barry Sanders. If Barry Sanders hadn’t retired at 31 he’d have run away with the career rushing record, much to my chagrin as a Payton-loving Bears fan.

Emmit Smith is beyond overrated. He spent his entire damn career behind the best offensive line in the league and with a hall-of-fame QB and WR taking a considerable amount of pressure off the running game by preventing other teams from stacking the box. Walter Payton and Barry Sanders, in their primes, were basically…

It’s cute that you think that, but that’s 100% not true. That might be true for a infinitesimally small portion of that 38%, but the vast majority of respondents literally think there’s a connection. Or did you miss the fact that google searches for “corona beer virus” spiked in February too? Many people are fucking…

I would put every last cent I could on a bet that if he responded by calling her Karen or Becky (assuming neither is her actual name), he would have ended up being disciplined and possibly fired...

While you’re not entirely wrong, your point is also not applicable in this case. This is a current (well, probably not for much longer) NFL athlete who is still earning millions of dollars playing football. This is not a guy who has blown through all of his money after his playing days are done and has to do something…

You know there are restrictions (which vary from state to state) on the amount of alcohol you can carry across state lines even though it’s federally legal to possess, right? aNukedHamster is 100% correct, even if weed was legal in all 50 states and/or on the federal level, there would absolutely be restrictions on…
