All because she wasn't the one allowed to take the trophy on the day, pathetic.

Nah, Cracker Barrel almost certainly wanted the redesign because that particular sector has been moving trying to avoid the whole "You can tell this used to be a Pizza Hut," thing for a while.

They want to be able to just open up a store anywhere with minimal investment. Then if their store is super generic it's real easy to offload the real estate if that location doesn't work out. It's easier for another firm to buy the real estate if they don't have to spend a bunch of money making the former Cracker Barrel not look like a Cracker Barrel.

That's just Hard Drive Fragmentation. If you went too long without defragmenting your hard drives eventually the computer would start taking ages to open anything because pieces of files would be scattered all over the physical drive platters

Quite possible. If you've already got problems coping with regular stimuli it's reasonable that you'd have a harder time coping with pain stimuli too. Their pain receptors could be more sensitive than others or any number of other explanations.

Plot twist; The reason they just learned about tax evasion is from a rabbit hole they went down after being told "How are we gonna pay for it?" when asking about the government doing something about climate change.

Surely the Face-Eating Leopards won't eat my face.

The more time passes the more convinced I am that we actually do live in a simulation. That our reality is some kind of TV drama that was actually supposed to end years ago but now the writers are running out of ideas.

We're out here doing worse versions of decades old plotlines, the stuff that is "new" feels phoned in, we've got this huge cliffhanger in the Epstein files that is probably never gonna get resolved. Really feels like the show ships have ended back in 2012.

I mean I'm shitposting, but still.

I love how these fucking hogs have zero problem lying through their teeth about shit like this. Presumably because in their mind they know the woke Starbucks employee they decided to target definitely did do this at some point and was just never caught. So it's not that he is lying, he's just exposing the crime that's already there and nobody has caught before.

I'd sooner believe that Robinson fabricated those texts and that note to take the fall for the partner doing the shooting than believe those are real texts. To be clear, I don't believe that at all either. Fucking Kash Patel could tell me grass was green and I'd go out and fucking check. They way too conveniently answer magically every investigative question they could possibly have.

That feel when you're disabled and know it's happening but can't do anything about it. You try to find time to at least do something, but it feels like you've dumped one bucket of water out of a boat and in the time it took you to do that two buckets worth of water have leaked into the boat.

My family's income rose by about 300 dollars per month a few months ago. We immediately lost about 250 dollars per month in rental assistance and SNAP benefits. But it's totally individual choices that keep us in poverty. If we just budgeted better we cou- Wait. No, scratch that. We also get in trouble for having too much money in savings and assets. We'd actually lose all our benefits before we managed to save up any appreciable amount of money.

My family's income rose by about 300 dollars per month a few months ago. We then immediately lost about 250 dollars per month in rental assistance and SNAP benefits directly because of that income change. Yep, totally personal responsibility. Definitely our fault we're in poverty and definitely has nothing to do with the Democrats means testing every assistance program without any regard to what other assistance programs someone might be on in an effort to seem "fiscally responsible" with these programs.

Oh we also get in trouble for having too much money in savings or other assets. There is basically no "climbing out of poverty," you either stay right where you are or through some miracle immediately rocket out. There is no in-between.
