They certainly exist. The place I go used to have a beer fridge but removed it to make room for another chair, and now has an ice chest. I never need an appointment and I've gotten a lot of really honest non-judgmental advice about improving my outward appearance. I learned some great ways to style my hair and got out of the habit of just having it cut as short as possible to avoid having to do anything with it

Is this piece bad because it's from Lawrence Summers or is there something else I'm not detecting? At least in this piece, he is speaking against economic inequality and discrepancies in job opportunities between various regions in this country.

The massive economy disparity he's writing about is not new, he's just writing about it because it's affecting white people now. He's bemoaning the dissolution of nationwide white middle class monoculture.

When you're bought out by an equity firm, you can expect to have your assets strip mined and then get tossed into the slag heap.

Larry Summers exists in a rareified atmosphere, an exclusive and very small club of humans who have managed to gently caress up the entire god drat world. It is truely staggering how much corruption he apparently deliberately engendered in the US economic mission to Russia immediately post-USSR (leading in no small way to the kleptocracy that birthed Putin's rise), and his influence on international economic policy and domestic US policy is difficult to overestimate. Everything you hate about Bill Clinton Summers probably had a hand in somewhere.

Wapo is fine overall but they are a Beltway as gently caress paper and it really shows in their opinion section.

the key difference between wapo and the NYT is the wapo does a much better job of keeping the republican propaganda they print on the opinion page, while the NYT just up and prints brazen republican propaganda as news on the front page for balance every so often

Biden has sat immobile on the Iron Throne of America. He is the Master of Malarkey by the will of the gods, and master of a million votes by the might of his inexhaustible calamari.
Edwards' expensive haircut was a thing because he was also advocating economic populist positions at the time. And because you have to do something really stupid or vain to go over $100 for a men's haircut with short hair.

Women's haircuts aren't in the same ballpark. It's not even the same sport, really. If you have long hair and any texture to it other than "dead flat" you'd looking at a few benjamins to do it right.

Right. For a nice dramatized, not so fictional example of this, Succession's "Vaulter" episode is a pretty good one.

I don't know how much hair cuts cost (being bald is economical) but I can get a quality beard trim w/ straight razor line up for $15-20 in countless places in Portland that also come with whiskey or beer. Which reminds me, it's been a few weeks and I might need to make an appoinment.

There’s nothing “hipster” about it, americans are just conditioned never to expect good things. Living in Germany I couldn’t go to a hair salon or even a laundromat without the ability to buy a drink or a coffee.

I used to get my hair cut for $10 by a crazy libertarian tax protester in her 60s. The conversation alone was worth the price of admission.

Edit: She also didn't have a barber's license cause that's how they get ya.

I'm morbidly curious how Trump's cognitive decline plays out. It's only going to get worse and it seems to be accelerating.

What happens first?

A. "Don't slur bigly in public" filter goes out first, starts yelling :heritage: poo poo live on camera.
B. Language center completely melts down, starts saying literally indecipherable vowel soup.
C. Can walk and talk, but has sub-toddler awareness of what's going on around him or what common objects are.

I think it'll be darkly hilarious if he doesn't get us all killed first.

It’s going to speed up dramatically with the pressure of impeachment I imagine. I unfortunately watched my grandfather, dad, and uncle go through dementia and in my father’s case where he’d been a miserable prick for the past 40 years and alienated everyone who’d ever cared about him long before the dementia, the acute stress of having no support accelerated his decline about 5x fold.
