IIRC, I’d read somewhere that the farmers really wanted the bailout, not the business. 🤷

Wow, I’m beginning to think the GOP doesn’t actually care that tariffs are putting small businesses out of business.

Everything flows down from the C-Suite. They tell Marketing to increase sales. Marketing tells Advertising to make “creative” ads (but then only approves “safe” boring ads). Then Marketing runs those uninteresting ads based on the number of times a spreadsheet says will get the most sales. They are disassociated from the customer experience, and will likely not be moved by public outcry. They only care when it doesn’t work, and it does or they wouldn’t do it. Sorry.

I saw a video from a farmer who said they knew Trump was going to screw them, but that he’d bail them out afterward. They were after that sweet, sweet taxpayer cash.

Sadly, they’ll bitch and get a bailout of our tax dollars.

NOT ACCURATE!! Those make sense!

 

I am sooooo effing tired of sitting through those nonsensical production company logo animations at the beginning of films. None of them seem related to the company name or logo. WTF are they thinking? 🙄

 

In 2024, U.S. utilities operated 94 nuclear reactors with a total net generating capacity of nearly 97 gigawatts (GW), the largest commercial nuclear power generation fleet in the world.

 

Put simply, being in the right place at the right time, and having connections, can be as important as having the skills and experience.

 

A waiting mortuary was designed to confirm that dead people were truly deceased. To alleviate the fear of being buried alive, recently deceased were housed for a time in waiting mortuaries, where attendants would watch for signs of life. A bell was strung to the corpses to alert attendants of motion. It's erroneously believed that this was the origin of the phrase "saved by the bell", but the phrase really comes from boxing.

 

From TECO: "With the help of 6,000 utility workers, we expect to restore power for essentially all customers in the coming days. Many will have power sooner; more extensive damage may take longer."
