She is racist and against Trump in one statement. That has to be some kind of record for a person in that Administration.

Please don’t say artisanal. That is a bullshit word. There is such a thing called speciality which is a technical term for coffee that is graded at 80-100 points. If you are using words like artisanal or gourmet, you are not knowable. Those in my opinion are bullshit words that make poor quality coffee sound fancy and super gross.

I only drink speciality.

Back in 2019 during the commodity crisis when the price was below a $1, they pretended to contribute lots of money to helping their farmers. The company publicly announced they were donating money to the farms they owned. That amount based on available financial data suggested that that money was equal to a single afternoon’s profits.

The point here is that Starbucks could have been contributing to the falling price of commodities, which they should have released more current financial data for. More transparency would have given a better idea if they were having a positive or negative impact. What this all boiled down to was simply saying what they paid their farms. If they did that, it would have been better.

Please don’t consume Starbucks. They have a reputation for buying from farms in Brazil and Guatemala that employe slave labor and child labor.

EDIT: Starbucks also abuses the Italian language. None of their drinks are what they claim to be. That mocha you had is too large to be a mocha.

The SNW boots are $499. So don’t expect these at discounted price to be under $200.

EDIT: I might be way off. The lowest priced boot they sell is $399.

I worked with someone named Ted and jokingly asked if he was related. The guy straight up said he was. Um… I don’t believe you but why would you want to claim that?

They may have been racist too because I remember them complaining about the movie Black Panther and the comments edging very close to being about how the main cast was black.

If they turn out to be dead, that would be a shame. Can’t have the award. Secondly, that would make the committee look bad.

EDIT: Just to be clear in case you are unaware, only people who are alive can qualify for an award.

This action figure looks less like Robert Duncan McNeill and more like Matt Damon.
