I think “margins” might imply percentage, but I Am Not A Businessman. I would be interested to see a full cost breakdown. I bet they’re saving on shipping! Lol

They almost doubled the price, but it cost them 3x more to make

If there’s someone out there that hasn’t heard about this case, I don’t think they should be allowed on the jury either. They’re obviously incapable of paying attention to anything

More dangerous stupidity from Fetterman

Definitely

And I always get them mixed up

Ah well, not surprising, especially since they did it once before lol

Especially since Target was known to be more progressive and minority friendly, at least with their marketing.

Are they? All I’ve ever heard about target before this is that they took down pride displays

Uber is neither the driver nor the passenger

For those wanting some insight into why this testing is so important, dairy companies used to add formaldehyde to milk, as a preservative, as well as pureed calf’s brains, to dispose of them

The Musk business cycle: Musk’s ego inserts him somewhere he has no business > he makes a ton of immediate, drastic changes, driven by ketamine, and posts about it online > the entire world laughs at him > he flounders for a few months > someone finally convinces him to step out of the spotlight a little > repeat

The fact that Robert Reich paywalls his Substack is hilarious

50501 is a national protest movement here in the US. There is an individual chapter for every state. The chapter for my state has a ton of people involved in my city, and one of the things we’re doing is fostering community through events like block parties.

Block parties are not “unsanctioned” lol

I don’t know if they’re a thing in other countries, but here in the US, it’s become an official type of event. We work with the city, and close down streets to set up on the pavement, temporarily converting the road into a social space for everyone around. Local businesses come and do stalls, food trucks set up, local musicians perform, it’s great!

I have no idea how they survive.

Part of it might be unpaid photo printer labor 😜

If your community is poorly connected, help out! Host a block party, set up a book swap, there’s all kinds of options. That’s a big focus of our local 50501 community in Michigan: restoring the bonds that have been worn away over the years by capitalists.

I strongly disagree with the majority of your last post though. It sounds like you’re determined to close your eyes and ears to the people around you

“Clearly, what we are doing is not working,” said state Rep. Bill Schuette, a Republican from Gladwin County…

“You look across the country, we are one of the only states that has a so-called independent head of its education department, and I believe that this, in practice, has removed an important element of accountability from our state’s public education system,” Schuette added.

Interesting point, but weirdly made, since the goal of the Republicans is to put more power in the hands of a single government head. There’s no way that dissonance is caused by hypocrisy, right?

The state board’s power has been reduced significantly over the years, particularly under the initiatives of former Gov. John Engler, a Republican who transferred a number of the board’s responsibilities to the state superintendent.

Ah, so it’s the classic Republican playbook of breaking the government, blaming the system for being broken, and using it as an excuse to break it further. Of course.

I think Tuvok probably had security clearances that might have been problematic to duplicate. Not that that would stop Janeway. I think it just means Tuvix would end up joining Section 31 after they get back to Earth
