yeah my favorite belt i got fitted and cut for me by a brazilian leatherworker at a farmer's market for 25 dollars and i've had it for years, still just as good
on the same token if i ran into like a swiss tinkerer at a flea market i'd totally have him handcraft me a timepiece or something and it'd probably still be enormously cheaper than something made basically exactly the same but with a brand stamped on it

In which Jeb! Repetition learned about message segmentation

(Hint: it's how Bud Light can advertise to gays and rednecks at the same time)

Nothing in that post implied I'm just learning about message segmentation. My only point was that pandering doesn't always work, particularly woke pandering. And again, that's the premise of this thread so I didn't think it'd be a controversial statement.

DC "Distiller" Names Whiskey After Hillary Clinton

It's called Rodham Rye.

https://www.washingtonian.com/2017/03/22/dc-distiller-names-whiskey-after-hillary-clinton/



The whiskey itself is a blend of sourced one-year-old rye and three-and-a-half-year-old rye from Tennessee. (Tagline: “a selection of whiskies that are stronger together than apart.”) Carusone also points out that of all of the grains used to make whiskey, rye is the hardiest, sturdiest, most resilient of them all. (Do you sense a metaphor?) The result is a spirit with pink peppercorn spiciness, vanilla bean and kettle corn sweetness, and subtle cinnamon notes.

The distillers cut the whiskey to bottle strength using Adirondack Mountain spring water from a maple syrup farm in upstate new York that has been in Gardner’s family for generations. Another Clinton tie: “Senator from New York, she’s done a ton for conservation,” Carusone says.

Rodham Rye will launch on March 25 with a “community conversation” at the Ivy City distillery entitled “How to Support Women in the Age of Trump.” After a panel discussion, Republic Restoratives will lead tours and offer samples and cocktails, while female-owned vendors will provide food.

Five percent of proceeds from the $79 bottles will go to EMILY’s List, an organization that helps pro-choice Democratic women running for office. The limited release consists of 4,652 bottles, but Carusone says there’s a possibility they could make another batch.

“You never know, there could be a comeback.”

jfc.

Also assuming a 50% markup on the whiskey, and that all the bottles sell, that is just shy of $10k donated, top-notch.
