I tried to convince my wife that actually in nature it's normal for the first baby to die because the nursing isn't working, but she wouldn't have it. Weird.

Nah, actually I wanted to do the far more CSPAM thing and get some experimental hormones so I could produce actual daddy milk, but apparently that's "too weird".

Who says you need hormones? Not this ALotD from the before times: https://unassistedchildbirth.com/inspiration/milkmen-fathers-who-breastfeed/

it tends to be, Black Friday deals in the US are usually a combination of cheap stuff heavily discounted to get people in the door and clearance pricing on last year's models and other large items they want to get rid of to make space for stuff that sells better over the holidays

they make Black Friday only models :capitalism:

Hiring managers acknowledge as much. In a survey of more than 1,000 hiring managers last summer, 27% reported having job postings up for more than four months. Among those who said they advertised job postings that they weren’t actively trying to fill, close to half said they kept the ads up to give the impression the company was growing, according to Clarify Capital, a small-business-loan provider behind the study. One-third of the managers who said they advertised jobs they weren’t trying to fill said they kept the listings up to placate overworked employees.

Somewhere in the usa there is a bot applying for a fake job listing at a ghost kitchen that lists it's address as an air bnb owned by a guy in another state who doesn't pay the mortgage on it and has a hidden camera in the bathroom that auto uploads the footage to a cam website that pays for it with a defunct crypto currency. Several banks will collapse because of this.

And for some reason they put a Raising Canes, a drive thru Starbucks, and Chik Fil A , all within a block from each other without the sandbagging and shrieking rage that follow say, a proposed bike lane. None of the usual suspects suing everyone to prevent change came out for this and they’re getting these things built just as fast as they can .

A new fast casual place opened here recently that ran a weekly promotion where, on a certain day, drive thru orders were discounted. The whole idea is to create a traffic jam that generates buzz. The city, rather than telling them to gently caress off, sent police to direct traffic.

There also tons on the motorways

I remember the drive from London to Cornwall just being a constant parade of vaguely Scandinavian wooden Starbucks shacks at every services on the way

And driving up north, it's less obvious, but there's still loads

I assumed the picture was taken by the wife when she found the nuts for sale, she only bought one but took the picture in front of the box of them being sold.
