🌌Why is Łink still missing???

There's a rule that stores aren't allowed to charge different prices to people based on whether they receive SNAP benefits. This rule is intended to protect them against either (1) discrimination or (2) stores' trying to capture some of the benefits by raising prices.

The Trump administration is turning this rule on its head by warning stores against offering _discounts_ to SNAP recipients, on pain of being excluded from being able to sell to them once SNAP benefits have been restored.

I should be allowed to study the white people in their natural environment. Just saying. 😂

I never really had an opinion about FN until now and thats because I really only ever played it with 1 or 2 friends. But if this is true I’m fine with never playing it again and uninstalling it from my Switch because screw supporting JK Rowling and screw the push this tainted franchise is getting.

Also Harry Potter adults really ought to be ostracised and I mean that with my whole chest because if you can casually support it then that means you’re cool with supporting its creator against trans folks so please go house sort yourself into a bin where you belong.

being a harry potter adult is so cringe i am not sorry find something else

"grow up" doesn't mean you can't keep enjoying things you liked from your childhood

"grow up" means learning about the world outside yourself and taking responsibility for your place in it

it's not cringe to like HP because it's a kids book

but because adults should know fuckin better by now

honestly! variety is the emoji board of life.

Remember when gaining an hour in the fall meant more sleep on Sunday not an extra hour of insomnia

Flashfood | Save money and reduce food waste Get massive savings on fresh food items like meat and produce that are nearing their best before date at grocery stores across Canada and the U.S.

flashfood.com is another app that teams up with grocery stores that discount foods that are bear their sell by date or overstocked.

Whenever I meet a "feminist" who wants to abolish sex work, I instantly know I'm talking with an unserious person who is not willing to do the work.

Let's imagine, for the sake of the argument, that they were right and all sex workers were trafficking victims who wanted to leave sex work. 🧵

The USDA is the fail safe for SNAP.

They have a contingency fund to ensure it’s covered in the event of a shutdown.

They’re refusing.

Grocery stores stepped up to try and help by offering discounts to any SNAP recipients and the USDA told them they had to stop.

Starvation as a policy choice.

Starvation is always a policy choice. Just like homelessness.

idk if we can put cams in the hall, but. if i could find a fairly cheap, closed circuit one…maybe.

someone keeps stealing from/breaking into packages in the lobby downstairs too. we had a package that was mostly underwear get ganked a few days ago.

supposedly there are cams in the lobby buuut…

qobuz doesn't have everything spotify does, but i was able to transfer most of my playlists, artists, likes, etc & apparently they pay artists more than any other alternatives.

i do like bandcamp quite a bit too though.

A long time ago, someone ( @mariancall.bsky.social ?) mentioned Spotify had the lowest percentage of payments to artists of any of the apps. None was really high but Spotify was lowest. I deleted it then.

Bandcamp still has some great artists and I think still gives artists full price on Fridays

…someone stole our doormat from the hallway in front of our door.

we live on the 4th floor.

no one else's doormats are missing.

it said "don't let the cat out or the cops in" & was a good, hefty doormat that costs almost $20 to replace.

And here’s the famous “the Rabbis hated entitled incels” passage.

Ht to @kwstzhaderbonch.bsky.social for reminding me of it before I’ve had coffee.

This week I had someone tell me they're not worried about SNAP being cut off because "that's illegal, so it's impossible Trump could do that, so obviously it's just media sensationalism." Another person told me they weren't worried about ICE because "they can't detain you if you're legally here."

Recently my brother in law explained what gerrymandering was to a coworker and they didn’t believe him because if that were really happening there would be riots in the street

The real looters & criminals will show up now to take advantage of Jamaicans who lost near everything in the hurricane - to steal their land. More than 90% of Jamaica's beaches are already owned by resorts and not accessible to Jamaicans. Disasters are a capitalist wet dream.

The UK, which has enslaved Jamaicans, pillaged their land and continues to exploit the island and its people - announced less than 8M pounds in "aid." It's not a donation if it doesn't even scratch the surface of what you stole.

I made this five years ago
