I had a similar situation, and even if I left out a bowl on the porch, the kids would look but keep walking. Finally figured out that some neighbors had shared a link to my Megan’s Law profile on Nextdoor.

So what you wrote before was not what you meant. You meant because they deceptively market themselves, they aren’t a thrift store, charity, or non-profit.

I don’t know enough about Goodwill to be able to judge that. I’m only saying that charities selling goods, even donated goods, at market prices to raise money for their cause is not at odds with their status or necessarily their mission.

They’re non-profit because the profit isn’t their focus - they have a specific mission. They’re a charity because they use the money they raise for a social cause. It’s free market because they set prices based on the buying behavior of the public. When they price too high, more of the public decides not to buy or buys elsewhere.

It can be all three.

Free market in action.

No Dothraki?

I think that it has gotten substantially worse in the last 10 years, but I don’t have hard data.

At first I thought it was just a festival phenomenon, where people present might not be particularly interested in that act. But it happens at individual band shows, and not just during the opening act.

Are people more self-absorbed? Or have ticket prices ironically meant a higher percentage of filthy rich people in attendance who don’t care all that much?

In the case of the prince, he is on the run so changes emails often. Perfectly normal.

I don’t think I ever saw that!

Thanks, Sen. Tom Harkin.

Where did the mulatto coffee get its name?

Theaters here ask people not to text during the movie. It’s not about sound distraction, it’s a bright, visual distraction.

Too far!

I live in a “first past the post” country that forces a two-party system and penalizes voting your conscience unless it aligns with one of those parties. While there may be flaws in Ranked Choice Voting that could emerge in fringe cases, it is so obviously superior to our current system that it is hard for me to worry too much about the nuance of how it might not be 100% perfect 100% of the time. Any (democratic) system is better than what we have now.

Is Disney arguing this should go to binding arbitration and that they are not at fault for the death, or are they arguing that it is legal for them to kill people whose families had Disney+ trials?

It’s fine to have your own strong opinion on this case, but you can’t have your own facts.

Not just not food, but poison apparently.

It’s an island of 4200 people about 20-30 miles from docks in Los Angeles and Orange Counties.

Ah. I interacted with you about a different one yesterday. Didn’t know you were tracking multiple.

If you run into anyone who seems obsessed with dirty things his friends are saying about his sister or a different one that feels vulnerable to being stabbed in the belly due to height, let me know.

You sure? This post is at least a little different. And so far no claims that life is pointless.

OP encountered this on his phone. Eventually realized swiping will help you to see things that are off the current screen.
