I feel like that term wasn't around in 2010

The Colosseum is in Rome.

The Coliseum is in Oakland, LA and any other place calling themselves a coliseum.

I used to work at a grocery store. I knew the prices of pretty much everything because I would ring everything up and do corrections at customer service. Prices are absolutely still way higher than pre pandemic. I'd say 30% more at least, with some items in particular having doubled.

That has nothing to do with democrats though. Supply shock in Covid, bird flu for eggs in particular and then straight up greed / monopolistic grocery stores are the reasons we're seeing higher prices. The Republicans will do absolutely nothing to fix these issues, but use high grocery prices as a dog whistle to rile up their base who are too uninformed about how anything works, and just eat that shit up. You can listen to any earnings call to hear these chucklefucks gloat about how they are working to find price (figuring out just how much they can squeeze out of people) while also having record earnings.

I recently was scrolling through doordash or Uber eats and saw that Home Depot was a choice. Out of genuine curiosity, I went and looked at if they had lumber for sale. Sure enough you can buy 4x4s that are 20 ft long. I was very tempted to try and order one to see what the doordash driver would even do with it.

I live in the Bay Area. I rarely see masks.

In defense of flight attendants, I had a super rough go of understanding anyone during Covid. I tend to read lips to an extent which I never really noticed until everyone was wearing a mask. Sometimes I have a bit of an auditory processing delay, and I was supplementing it by reading lips.

Women must send their used tampons to the state so we can confirm you are not pregnant. Totally not weird.

Oh no Mitch, you mean you'll actually have to do your job instead of sending Ted Cruz out to read Green Eggs and Ham? I feel so bad for you.

Pretty sure this is the same shit that blew up in the Beirut port. I wouldn't let a Russian ship full of that shit into my port.

Since people keep commenting on how it looks. Here they are. That way you don't have to give that cretin more clicks.
