I'm not convinced he knows what he's talking about. He completely glossed over the fact that the electrons need to be used in conjunction with a drawn reciprocation dingle-arm to reduce sinusoidal deplenaration.

We believe that this guest with household income below $100,000 represents about 40% of our total sales and, based on our data, is dining out less often due to concerns about the economy and inflation.

Uh, yes, as someone who is in this demographic I can attest that dining out less due to vague concerns about the economy and inflation is a very real phenomenon that deserves further investigation.

 

Five days late here, but fuck it.

Followup question Mr. Jeffries - could you explain the difference between those two concepts?

I literally never thought about this before - couldn't there just be a revolving door where legal teams sue and settle for basically nothing, then get lucrative contracts from the company they settled against while the company can't be sued again?

This actually strikes me as a really innovative idea, but as it stands your government grifter program needs a blame-diffususion mechanism to be enacted and see actual usage. You don't need anything fancy, just fancy enough to satisfy government grifters.

The content warning should be for the japanese language terms! That's why the culture ministry is upset in the first place! Read the article before posting it here please.

My gut feeling is that giving her that much self-awareness is an optimistic reading.

Hey guys, my reading comprehension is pretty poor. I think what it is is that I really don't understand the what the word "let" means. The way I'm used to using it, there would be some other individual or entity here with enough control to "let" this thing happen. Can someone clear up exactly who it was that recklessly let Biden make the reelection decision on his own?

Watching a thing isn’t a hobby.

My dad has spent so much of his free time over his life birdwatching that I cannot grasp this statement as anything other than pedantry saying passive recreation can't count as hobbies. Maybe watching a thing isn't a hobby by the dictionary, but I think it's pretty clear what the word "hobby" is intended to mean here.
