For individual investors, individual stocks are not a worthwhile risk. Buy a broad scale index fund, realize you won’t get rich but you also won’t lose it all, and build for your retirement.

I bought a mesh sneaker bag from Amazon that is designed to keep them safe in the wash and it seems to do the trick each time. Just be sure to take out in the insole before washing.

Veedem , 3 days ago to mildlyinfuriating in I ordered my daughter a pizza, something I don't usually do. I got Domino's smallest size with two toppings. I got her cheese sticks and two sauces and tipped the driver 20%. $31.07.

It would have only cost $22.40 if you picked it up yourself.

Man, those poor kids. I can’t imagine the trauma both of them are feeling after something like that.

Sure, but they shouldn’t have to bear the burden of uprooting their lives yet again just because of intolerance.

Reading the article, it seems like it may have been more of a case of poor judgement from management instead of intentional racism (maybe subconscious stereotyping, though).

Have to be honest…

I thought you were going to fool us with the “with ending” link.

I’m surprised more brands aren’t simply defaulting to Threads. You still see links to their Xitter profile instead of Threads.

I prefer Mastodon, myself, but I get why major brands would prefer a centralized network.

That still makes it sound like there’s real honey in it. Should be “Honey Flavored Sauce” IMO

It’s a decently fair complaint. Other food products have to use language to somewhat clearly differentiate between real and “flavored like” products.

If that happened to one of my kids, I don’t know how I’d ever be able to put myself back together. That’s horrible.

I get that the other things are important but

A) he can’t singularly change them B) he can certainly take an hour or two to do something that’s a presidential tradition and more lighthearted.
