This is your regular reminder that a 20% on Rotten Tomatoes means that 20% of reviewers liked the movie. The RT score represents chance that a reviewer liked it, not overall weighted score or how much they enjoyed it.

There are so many things at stake, but people really don't know how bad Trump's supreme court has fucked the environment already. Getting the average voter to care about it won't happen until it's far too late. I try to just not think about it.

The best, simplest summation I've seen. Thank you. I've been searching for something to make sense of it and this is definitely it. Being forced into voting for the "least worst" candidate obscures where that path is headed by either candidate.

The article is literally right there. Why are you being weird about this?

Shhh

They're showing us the "Confused hard soft create man times" phase.

In healthcare IT there's often a person who specializes in just printers. My friend makes a lot of money doing that.

For an alternative, I went to Deezer and love it. You should look at some comparisons to see if one is better for you.

Their hybrid mattress is damn good for the price, especially when it's on sale. Not everyone can afford spending so much money. At the time I couldn't, that Ikea mattress was leagues ahead of the competition.

I did the same research and your second set of points are spot-on. Hybrid mattress with pocket springs are amazing.

The only physical store worth a damn is Ikea. Their hybrid mattresses aren't bad and decently priced. Although it tended to sag after a few years, it was still worth it for the price I paid.

I've since gone with Titan mattress and have been extremely happy paying a bit more for the increased quality and durability. I've had mine for 3 years and it hasn't shown any signs of wear.

Yeah, as an American I'm surprised it's only 60 percent. Pretty much anything I've ever seen available to me has been washed/graded/refrigerated. Maybe farmer's markets? But no way do they have 40 percent market share. I've occasionally had friends with coops so I'm not unfamiliar with having shelf stable eggs, though.

At this point I think the thing that'd freak out Americans the most is the whole thing about not needing to refrigerate. It's ingrained now.

3 main reason I cancelled Amazon:

  1. Counterfeits. Can get the items direct for same price & shipping now anyways.
  2. Shipping so unreliable.
  3. My "new" items were quite often repackaged returns, usually missing parts.
