There’s one near me that only advertises the price with car wash. So the sign shows what you pay per gallon if you also decide to spend an extra $15 on a shitty automatic car wash. WTF??

And don’t words that end in -ix get pluralized with -ices? So you’d have Aviatrices, Dominatrices and Gladiatrices. I need some of these I can use in real life, dammit!
I haven’t heard that before, do you have a source where I could read more? I know fish at least is high in omega-3s… What is it about cooking the fat that makes it bad, and does that mean raw or rendered fats are fine?
This article is cherry picking numbers from a Redfin study. It says 28% empty-nest Boomers vs 14% Millennials with kids. Together those two subsets own 42% of large homes (3+ bedrooms). So that doesn’t account for elder GenZ, Millennials without kids, all of GenX, and any boomers that don’t count as “empty-nest” for whatever reason. It’s not half corps like everyone keeps saying.
If you click through to the Business Insider article you can see that it’s a misquote. Private investors accounted for 44% of the flips in 2023, not 44% of all single family home purchases total. That’s still a problem, but it’s a huuuuuge difference. Flips are a small minority of home sales.
I prefer sabotage that doesn’t have the potential to ignite thousands of acres of adjacent woodland. Somewhat counterproductive at that point.
yeah, I thought we killed satire years ago!
I like the quadpod
I took the phrase “small business” to mean places with an actual storefront (restaurants, small shops, studios, and so on) who use FB or IG in lieu of having their own site. For those places it makes particularly little sense because social media isn’t most people’s first port of call when they’re looking for somewhere to eat dinner or go thrifting.
What? Myself and most of my friends are Gen Z and nobody I know does this. Google Maps is always the first place I look, and 70% of the time I click through to the business’s actual site.
Hell, most of us barely use IG at all anymore
Even worse are the ones I see flying in West Virginia – you know, the state that only exists because its inhabitants didn’t want to secede along with the rest of Virginia.
Wait, what did Hyperloop kill in MD? It looks like the proposed route was from DC to Baltimore underneath MD 295 – we already have Amtrak and MARC serving that corridor.
everything from desert to tundra to a variety of types of forest and just about every biome in between.
I’m pretty sure you can find all those things just in the state of California. Meanwhile Croatia, where this photo was taken, has about the same land area as West Virginia.
I’m not sure what you would export, just your listening history and favorites? Pocket Casts doesn’t host the actual audio files themselves, those are all available elsewhere online. I doubt there’s an easy way to port your existing subscriptions and such to another app, that would require them all to use a standard format for that data and there’s not really any incentive for that.
Worth noting that in October they’re increasing their annual subscription price from $9.99 to $39.99, which is when I’ll be finding another podcast app. I love Pocket Casts but it doesn’t provide $40 worth of functionality for me.
Did you even bother to skim the article? That’s literally the first reason they give:
There are a few theories that seem to come up again and again. First, Gen Z simply uses technology more than any other generation and is therefore more likely to be scammed via that technology.
Interesting, I’ve used self checkouts all over the US and every single one has been as you described. I didn’t know there was a gun option!
Interestingly your link seems to blame it mostly on declining marriage rates? It says near the end that the majority of the decline in individual homeownership rate since 1990 can be accounted for by assuming the marriage rate stayed constant, rather than the noted decline in marriages we’ve seen since then. So I’m not convinced things actually were better in the 90s; couples were just getting married younger and more often, and the pooled resources allowed more of them to buy homes.
well they were entirely made up of account executives, insurance salesmen, and management consultants so I think it’s still fair to call them “ape-descended”
