Love the radio silence after the amazon & ups workers weighed in on how quiet it is at their workplaces this holiday season. :allears:

Can confirm, even the oil crash year in Alberta wasn't this ridiculously dead. I've never gone home early this often in December.

weird how close these numbers are to the overall polling on the economy.



why, it's almost like this perfectly explains everyone's perception of the economy without having to resort to insane conspiracy theories about the media tricking people!

AI to formalize the secret technique of "rejuvenated fries", where you toss the stale fries back in the fryer for 10 seconds to seem hot instead of making a new batch

Rice holds very well in a proper fridge ($1899-$3,500)

In Thailand, they use genetic engineering and university resources to increase yield and nutrition and protect the ground from arsenic contamination.

In America, they use genetic engineering and university resources to make rice more resilient to arsenic and protect the ground from environmental regulation.

it is bemusing looking at various shrinkflation and how many are like "this can of pringles is $9.99 and only 6 chips now!! cant believe this" or "I paid $15 for this frozen digorno and its so smol!" and it's just like, stop buying pringles/oreos/goldfish/whatever at clearly scam prices for shrinking quantities. stop giving the conagra-nestle megacorps money where they're just blatantly feasting off you. A lot of these record-breaking corporate quarterly profit reports where they are stating like "we have increased 33% more revenue by optimizing the maximum expenditure per consumer despite a 18% reduction in total consumers" are solely a short-term shot of profitable-adrenaline in the arm coasting on cultural and social inertial forces; I don't think it's going to last once the inertia dampens out and material conditions continue to decline

i don't believe in individual action or 'boycotting', but i've definitely adjusted my spending habits substantially the past several years were i'm defacto boycotting almost all big brand corporate junk because it's too expensive and i got no $$ -- and i doubt i'm the only one

As people said, consumption is pretty much our culture. More than that it's like... if I'm a responsible adult minimizing my drug and alcohol intake, where am I supposed to get my endorphins if not processed garbage? Exercise? Bah! We cook healthy meals most of the time, but I can't even get a goddamn bag of potato chips for less than $5 and when I do it only lasts like 2 days and is mostly air.

Bought a russet potato for a buck at the supermarket. I guess a big bag would be cheaper. But a buck for one potato? Ah well. It's tater time!

I used to buy the bags of potatoes, but now presumably because of lingering supply chain bullshit they usually rot before I can get through them.
