Yeah… Like, I agree a lot of the liberal “resistance” is useless but also every time I see a leftist online advocating for revolution, I’m wondering when they’re gonna kick it off.

Ah, okay. That makes sense.

You could always hire a lawyer of your own and sue the company directly. That’s what someone did to have it become a class action lawsuit. The person who brought the original suit gets a big payout, and the people who did not generally get a much smaller piece of the pie.

Trader Joes is only located in the lower 48 states.

Aldi in North America is owned by a different parent company than Trader Joes. Both parent companies are named Aldi. The context of the original question was essentially asking “Aren’t Aldi (US) and Trader Joes owned by the same company?” to which Mr Worldly Wiseman responded with a correct no. No further specification needed because you can simply look to the broader context the question was asked in.

I guess? Mutually assured destruction is a form of brinkmanship that I’m not sure if I’m comfortable attempting. I won’t judge you for how you choose to defend yourself against this administration but I will say that guns rarely deescalate a situation. I truly hope that ICE or the FBI or whoever actually do back down from more violent actions if they fear for their lives, but I feel like it’s more likely that they will simply engage in greater shows of force. Maybe that will wake more people up to what they’re doing.

I don’t believe in the horse shoe theory except when it comes to gun owners larping about rising up against the government.

Small correction, it’s every fourth year except every hundreth year except every 400th year. I’m assuming the misconception comes from the last time it was a 100th also being a 1000th (2000) but the next time a leap year will end in 00 is 2400

I don’t blame those who didn’t vote for Kamala for her stance on Israel, I get it. I’m just tired of people who didn’t vote specifically against Trump then act really surprised that the Democrats are putting up an anemic defense of our rights, because in theory they should have expected it, given how they voted. Asking why Democrats aren’t stopping fascism when you ostensibly did not support them because you felt they would not do enough to stop fascism should be readily apparent.

I am not using “you” here as in you, piefood, just as a general you

I mean, “neatly lost” here is a disingenuous phrase for “won”. The 2020 election wasn’t even particularly close either, in terms of the Electoral College, which is unfortunately the only part that really.

I agree with you otherwise, so sorry for the pedantry. Dems should have definitely learned from the midterms, and they should have learned Biden was too old for a second term even before he announced he’d run again.

I’d say I hope they learn from 2024 but I doubt it.

“Literal” has been used metaphorically for emphasis by better writers than you, centuries before you were born. Shut up.

I got laid off about five and a half years ago, at the start of Covid. The meeting was with my manager and his boss (who I was also friendly with). I got a meeting invite and asked if we could push it back an hour so I could drive my wife to work, they said sure. I told my wife on the drive that I was getting laid off. Sure enough, I was. They paid me five weeks severance and gave me resources to file for unemployment. It was due to Covid causing a huge drop in money coming in, which was understandable. Honestly, I didn’t like my job, I had already hired a company to rewrite my resumé. So it worked out. At least my boss and his boss had the spine to do it personally. I’ll always give them credit for that.

I mean, Montana has lakes and lakes have beaches…

I mean, literally not? The meme about Don’t Dead Open Inside was that the words went top to bottom then left to right. This is the opposite. It reads left to right, top to bottom.

There is a difference between talking about sex and gender and something being sexual. If a shopkeeper mentions his husband, I can extrapolate that he’s at least bi, but that doesn’t mean the game is sexual.

They probably bought it from someone who previously had rented it out.

Either the fees didn’t jump straight to $930 from $110 or the person didn’t do due diligence in reviewing the condo’s budget before they bought.

Just use Landrop like a normal person

Can’t wait to see how the conservative majority on the supreme court bends over backwards to say their ruling that said Presidents can do anything they want doesn’t actually apply to the black one.
