One thing Ive noticed about selling (at least plants) is that the discount is never good enough, and that your revenue actually do better at full price listings. The only reason to put something on sale is cause you dont want to look at it anymore.

How do the comics treat Bruce Wayne, Tony Stark, two top 0.01%ers who create the conditions for obscene amounts o crime? Xmen fight mutants from other dimensions, fine. Copout, but fine. Batman fights the people he creates. Id be interested in how Batman grapples w that. Is he a Maga?

So nobodys talking about how Russian troll farms run the presidents twitter account? Seems like the kind of thing that should blow up an entire administration.
Trumps account is getting protocol failure messages after the yandex explosion which are being posted to X

Is he blaming his low income punchdown on a hack? Or is this unrelated?

Prob a controversial take. If tech does mass layoffs for years, how can these companies legit apply for more h1b? Gobs of US engineers looking for work now, so its not a skill gap. For the broligarchs its an indentured servant gap. The missing companies arent on the list cause bribes / dirt.

take out the trash Republicans, then take out the trash republicans AND democrats who enabled him, and make this a tribunal court where the guilty face severe consequence. Focusing on health is great and all. but your scope is too narrow. Dont be on the wrong side Patty.

the amount of capital sunk into this is so obscene, if it doesnt work its probably cascading economic failures. I think lots of us welcome it, but arent prepared.

Tillamook uses a kettle to make their tea during their cheese mongering sessions and they have pinned up a picture of Rob Schneider with drawn on clown makeup in their back office. I dont know what to think about this Gail.

Democrats always leave the job undone, and let lawlessness, corruption and evil remain in the heart of our political institutions. It would have been something to see an insurrections leaders actually be punished. But they are SCOTUS wives and frmr Presidents, so no.

You got it. This big online book seller had me supporting some monser dashboard and hardly any of their requirements were met. no access to build anything in their warehouse. Olap everywhere, billions of records. Took abt an hour for Tabelau to run every day, and that was after I optimized it.

I am going to say two quick things that happened to me in two separate restaurants a few weeks apart. One a few weeks ago, one two days ago. They aren't really great STORIES, just incidents that I think are kind of neat, taken together especially. 1/

If you will be boxed in, bad idea. If you have sort of an open concept with a nook built in, works great, especially if you can locate it next to the window.

I am glad I dont follow right wing spaces. I dont know much about the trial, but it does seem like that case is an indictment of postpartum care, psychiatry and mental health care in this country.

Not really focused on Jeffries. He just annoyingly helps these maga who should be the focus. When dems sweep the midterms watch him facilitate for maga. I listen to plenty of Black people who have serious peoblems w Jeffries as well. Trying to make this racial isnt really gonna work here.

Ben @benfluencet.bsky.social · 05/09/2026
You dont have to vote Republican to shit on jeffries or simply criticise him for very good reason. Jeffries does not do a good job at finding common ground with anybody to the left, but can do it with Maga? Who is your quote about anyways?

Ben @benfluencet.bsky.social · 05/09/2026
Finding racists saying racist things doesnt make Jeffries a decent representative let alone house speaker. But controversy may help cleanse his image of a Maga pariticipating, enabling and complicit stooge. Idk, I am not someone who runs a large political account.

"Let's figure out a way to work together, find common ground, get things done." Back channel diplomacy with people turning gaza into a US / Israeli country club and releasing ICE on US citizens, gestapo in America. Yes, bipartisanship w that in an entire problem.

$1.5million isn't nothing but it being only 4% makes it even worse. We thought it was a bribe, but it turns out that his fecklessness, controlled faux opposition, betrayal and mealy mouthyness is just a core value.

a distinction without a difference. a 2% inflation adjustment on a tax, eve when required by law during an affordability crisis is still a tax hike. It not as if lawmakers cannot change preset rules. sure, it creates budget holes to fix. Tax the rich.
