  1. Every Surly Law Dog has already drawn up a business plan to charge $2.13/hour with a mandatory $200+/hour service fee (tip) added to the bill.
  2. Only place in Europe I've shopped for enough groceries to notice is the UK and prices there are definitely way cheaper for fresh food, meat and dairy.
  3. But why? All that shit is banned in Europe already and grocery prices are a lot cheaper than the US. Does the reliance on frozen and shelf stable food in the US push fresh food prices higher?
  4. AOC removed her pronouns from her social media last week. I think at least the message that "it's the economy, stupid" isn't lost on some of them at least. I would guess you'll see a focus on the economy, inflation, wages, job growth while social issues are bullets further down the platform list. I read something earlier that the average American reads at a 5th grade level. Dems talk about the economy as if they're speaking to a graduate level seminar..."Nobel prize winning economists state the leading indicator of inflation reduction is the square root of yada yada yada...". Trump says "Biden broke the economy and I will fix it." Guess which version goes straight over the head of the voter and which comment they understand.
  5. It’s not free at HEB. Curbside prices have a 3% markup and if you want it to be ready quickly it’s another $5-8.
  6. He looks like he just paid those ladies $1,000 for a $10 handjob.
  7. If you haven’t seen Loki or paid attention to the behind the scenes Marvel-Disney dynamic, a lot of it won’t make sense. I tried to watch it for the first time since the theater and it doesn’t hold up at all. I enjoyed it in the theater but all the faults sure stand out in second viewing.
  8. Here's my contribution to the platform. For every US citizen at birth, the government invests $10,000 in a Total US Market Index fund for them in a Roth IRA that does not vest until age 65. There is no access to the account for loans or early withdrawals. If you die before 65, it goes back in the pot. There are no beneficiaries for this fund. This will help offset the costs for those who can't enter the work force due to disabilities. At 7% annual growth, it would be $812,000 at age 65. With 3.5M births per year, it would cost $35B annually. The investment amount is adjusted annually for inflation. However, this is not a gift, it is the government fronting each individual $10,000 at birth. When an individual starts working, the first $10,000 they pay into social security pays back the fronted money before they start accruing social security contributions so the program mostly pays for itself. It does not replace social security.
  9. Here comes the Ewers 3 Play Special: overthrow, sack, INT.
  10. Nothing could've possibly happened in the past 3 years. There shouldn't be exceptions for those background checks. It doesn't matter if you had one 6 months ago. Go through the process.
  11. The missing immigrant labor in construction and agriculture will be filled with prison laborers...specifically, prisons filled with non-Trump voters as he promised. Technically, they won't be slaves since prisoners get paid $0.12/hour.
  12. She's tasked with helping her dad in Israel bring about the Apocalypse.
  13. First order of business is eliminating all vaccine funding research and banning all vaccines.
  14. Good thing they've already had that class. After all the shit the Legislature is going to do to public schools in the fall, the only math kids are going to learn is how to calculate how many cows and bushels of corn need to be in the dowry to buy Chadlynne as a teenage bride. Bless Jebus.
  15. The military will be fighting for Russia in Ukraine by the end of '25. Might as well pay them Russian army wages instead of hazard pay.
  16. "DO SOMETHING BIDEN OR WHEN TRUMP ALLOWS ETHNIC CLEANSING IT WILL BE YOUR FAULT!!!" The regard is strong with this one.
