Lol at wanting more cops

Echoing language used when law enforcement search a home for drugs, the warrant allowed deputies to “utilize breaching equipment to force open doorway(s), entry doors, exit doors, and locked containers” and to search all rooms, garages and “storage rooms, and outbuildings of any kind large enough to accommodate a small goat.”

Cedar was taken and slaughtered.

“Making an exception for you will only teach [our] youth that they do not have to abide by the rules,” Silva wrote back to Long in an email reviewed by The Times dated June 28, 2022. “Also, in this era of social media this has been a negative experience for the fairgrounds as this has been all over Facebook and Instagram.”

She should have raised a heifer because at least those go into milk production (well, after the year if being a first calf heifer) and you don't feel as bad about your animal friend going off to die.

It was funny seeing some show pigs at the Wisconsin state fair and the people walking them holding boards between them. My spouse asked why and I said it's because the pigs know they're going to be killed and they want to kill humans before they lose the chance. Right then a pig lunged at someone and tried to break his kneecap but failed

I hated the sheep I raised but liked the heifers, until steers broke out of an adjacent pen and raped my heifer to death via splaying. Most gruesome thing I've seen in my life. I don't remember who cleaned up the carcass, I know I couldn't handle it at like age 12.

Wow, what they’re saying is these tourist destinations only want a limited number of rich assholes to come visit. Poors and middle class should just stay home, toil away at their jobs and never travel. Banning cruise ships in Venice is actually a good thing but creating bullshit timed fees and bookings and such is not the same.

Airline prices to Europe are astronomical this summer, ridiculously overpriced for worse service. My salary didn’t increase to cover the dramatic increase/inflation and so it’s only going to get more expensive. These prices are never coming down again either so at some point travel will just be for the extremely wealthy.

Not sure how airline survive with that model but good luck!

The cops in my city straight up said they aren't doing traffic enforcement anymore because they "don't have enough officers for it," I guess in some kind of attempt to beg for/extort more money from the city, so the streets here are, unsurprisingly, an utterly lawless wasteland. Speeding, red light running, flat out ignoring signs/lanes, and just generally pulling insane Mad Max poo poo. I don't know what the solution is, but it feels like publicly announcing "lol go ahead and do whatever" was not the right play.

Rising cost of living forces more families to buy groceries with credit

Shadyside financial coach Shay Port recently counseled a woman who was so strapped for cash she had to buy all of her groceries through companies offering buy now, pay later credit services.

Although the client, a Pittsburgh woman, was only buying groceries and everyday necessities on credit, her installment payments had grown to more than $400 a week.

“She was trapped in a vicious cycle,” said Ms. Port, owner of Financial Wellness with Shay Port. “The only way she could afford to buy more groceries was to keep using buy now, pay later the next week.”

More Americans are choosing to go in debt rather than go hungry.

Buying groceries online and at retail grocery stores through buy now, pay later services grew by a whopping 40% in the first two months of this year compared to the same time last year, according to Adobe. That’s compared to a 14% drop in electronics purchases and an 8% uptick in apparel sales.

All of the major Pittsburgh area grocers have embraced the growing trend. O’Hara-based Giant Eagle, Kuhns and Aldi allow customers to make buy now, pay later purchases at the register. The grocery bill gets spread out over four interest-free installment payments, typically over six weeks.

Are you really expecting long term thinking out of the MBAs leading the world? As long as it juices revenue now, they'll have their bonuses and stock options and golden parachute. The rest is the next executive's problem. (They'll just boost revenue for a couple quarters too)

Then they’ll get bailed out by governments! How much loving money did governments give airlines during COVID?

I’m sure it’s a result of them losing so many pilots and stewardesses due to dropping precautions and also the vaccine requirements. Whose fault is that? They dropped precautions and people didn’t want to work and those who did got sick and couldn’t work

I live and work in PA, I currently work part time making 13.75 on weekdays and 14.75 on weekends. I am also the sole breadwinner for my house because my boyfriend has seizures and is unable to drive for the next five months and public transportation isn't practical in my town. Currently I am applying for a new job that would have me making between $14-$16 an hour 30-36 hr a week but I'm concerned my boyfriend and I will get kicked off of medicaid and food stamps if I make slightly over whatever the income limit is which would put us in even worse financial standing paying for food and health insurance. I can't seem to find an reliable info on what the income limit is for 2 adults.

Medicaid and SNAP are both household-based here, if they find you're living at the same address and not giving full household income they'll adjust according to combined income and claw the difference back.
