Haven't restaurant prices been rising anyway and sometimes without the increased wages for employees?

Yes because labor is the single smallest part of all restaurant costs. Building rent, raw materials, and equipment costs all tend to be vastly higher than employee pay.

Odd that a company that I think is sitting on $1.2 billion dollars but can't afford to pay their workers more without jacking up prices. Almost like the system itself is lovely.

On its face it's extremely funny there was no prize award for cartoons, but it turns out they're actually being humongous shitheads and they didn't give a prize because the finalists weren't conservative men https://twitter.com/JenSorensen/status/1403490514142334977?s=20 You can see the finalists here: https://www.pulitzer.org/article/2021-pulitzer-prize-announcement They were Ruben Bolling, Lalo Alcarez, and Marty Two Bulls

100% of conservative arguments about wages are basically just that one dril tweet about budgeting with executive pay being 20000% higher than anything else, but they're being serious

Say it ain’t so! Edit: yeah, as lol as it is to say “ha ha no cartoonists are good” Bolling is consistent top quality and a Two Bulls and Alvarez both do really strong work, so this is pretty lovely. skeleton warrior fucked around with this message at 01:01 on Jun 12, 2021 |

 Pope:  Home affairs minister Karen Andrews, Attorney General Michaelia Cash. Dutton is now defence minister. This is again the comment from Cash to Andrews to not "blink" and not grant any special consideration to the Murugappan family who have spent years in detention on Christmas Island, with the youngest girl currently hospitalised in Perth. Rowe:  Scott Morrison is in Cornwall for the G7 summit. Warren Brown:  Dyson:  Loads of opinion pieces using this as a springboard for whatever point they want to make about Melbourne. Curiously all the Australian sources say Melbourne has dropped to 8th while the international sources have it at 9th; either there is another index or (more likely) the first Aussie story got it wrong and everyone is cribbing off that. Leak, Son of Leak:  Australia to refit ageing submarines as doubts over new French fleet grow - The Australian (Reuters) Knight:  Controversial businessman and former Sydney Swans owner Geoffrey Edelsten dies aged 78 (ABC) Apart from owning a football team Geoffrey Edelsten opened a bunch of 24-hour clinics with grand pianos, flew in a pink helicopter and had a series of increasingly younger wives. He was also struck off the medical register and jailed for hiring a hitman to assault a patient.

There are noticeably few US cartoons about G7, at least compared to the number from Australia and the UK. Is it just something the American media doesn't care about?

They took entry fees and then said they weren't awarding anything? I was pretty tickled when I saw they were giving no awards, but the fact that these folks were the finalists really puts the decision into a new light.

In case you were wondering, it costs $75 to submit an entry for one of the Pulitzer categories. I don't know how this works from a legal perspective, but I'd assume you can't just pocket that money and then flat-out refuse to give out the award.

Hi all, if you want to add a kellies category, just be sure to include the magic phrase Kellies nomination In this case, we'll go ahead and say there's a "best overall" category this year- I've generally been in favor of such a thing.

If you want someone to complain to, here's the 2021 Pulitzer board. Bear in mind it's possible that the jury may have actually played a role in this. Given the procedures above, it is likely that not all of the board were refusing to award a prize. It may be worth asking them what happened.

I've been behind on my news intake, what's this about? I mean I understand the cartoon, the message is clearly that Merrick Garland either refused to investigate something about Trump or even defended something Trump did, I'm just wondering what specifically he did to inspire this cartoon.
