Not even just a sign up verification wall in this case - It’s a straight up paywall.

I’m watching leftist subs already get filled up with Russian propaganda about the election being stolen. It’s depressing. They’re doing the same shit to us as they did to the right in 2020 and we’re falling for it.

They were “improperly obtaining” opioids, sleeping medications, and powerful stimulants from the pharmacy, treating it more like their personal dealer than a medical facility.

I’m involved in the manufacturing sector. At recent trade shows, we’ve been hearing that a lot of companies were holding off on making decisions about purchasing goods and machinery until after the election, though no one was saying much specifically about what each candidate would mean for their decisions. This article seems to say the outlook isn’t super rosy and his initiatives don’t make a ton of sense.

Considering the stories that came out about how they used the White House pharmacy as a drug dealer, no, it would not surprise me in the least.

Ok Russian shill account.

Thanks electing Trump, Uncommitteds. Enjoy watching Gaza burn and Ukraine turn into Russia.

I’m scared for the economic future. My job is with a company that needs supplies from China to make our products. Our buyers also source most of their raw materials overseas. Trump’s tariffs will destroy us. We won’t be able to source materials and neither will our buyers. I may lose my job.

Beyond that, I have family members only a couple of years from retirement. This is going to tank their accounts. I need a new car. How will I be able to afford one? Everything is going to go up in cost.

Love my bumbles. They’re sweet little derps. The native milkweed in my garden came through strong this year and I made sure to spread the seeds nearby so next year is even better for them.

A disorder is something that interferes with your enjoyment of life. While I’m proudly autistic and don’t have any issues saying that, I also recognize how it makes my life more difficult.

My sensory issues, stims, and social problems do interfere with my life and did even more when I was a child. I’ve been discriminated against for being autistic by a boss who tried to say that not making eye contact meant I was bad at my job. I’ve had to seek accommodations at work, which I wouldn’t be able to do if it wasn’t a disability

I appreciate your optimism but your perception is wrong. It very much is a disability and those of us living with it know that.

Is he the idiot who demands you only pay for things in cash and store it in labeled envelopes?

It doesn’t even go far enough to reach his ears most of the time. Just an orange smear ending after his cheeks.

Sometimes when I have to answer a call from an unknown number, I’ll pick up but won’t say anything. A human will say something when they hear it stop ringing, but most bots listen for voice activity before they start their recording so they’ll just stay silent as long as you do.

Arbitration is overwhelmingly resolved in favor of corporations. The company pays the arbitrator, which means they will generally rule in their favor if they want to continue to be hired. Complainants get a fraction of the amount of money they’d get from a court case from arbitration, and it keeps the public from knowing what the company did. That’s why so many companies are trying to force arbitration clauses on consumers.

It’s speculated that the reason why Steam backed down from their clause in this case is that it was getting too expensive for them. Paying so many individual arbitrators and lawyers was costing them way more than resolving a single class action lawsuit. Hopefully more companies are forced to come to this realization in the future.

Edit: Article about why they may have removed the clause TL;DR Valve doesn’t want to deal with 50,000 separate court cases at one time

The only reason I knew peanuts could be bad for your kidneys is watching Dr. Glaucomflecken and seeing his sketch of the nephrologist at Halloween. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAghdVqVJUg

You have fallen through reality into the Trekrooms.

Seriously? I just got mine done using the paper method and it was so annoying! Hope this is still around in 10 years.

I’m looking at it the other way. He’d probably use it to fundraise and rally his base. Better to delay so he can’t juice it.

Pumping room? You mean the closet with the free yummy milk?
