Noticed a similar thing going between Canadian and US grocery stores. Roughly the same numerical cost, but with the difference in price exchange rates it is far cheaper on the Canadian side. Also, high fructose corn syrup isn’t at the top of every single ingredient list.

KnitWit@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Trump once hosted party for ‘young women’ where Epstein was only guest, says report3·7 days agoExactly, which the video quote I think proves. He really felt comfortable saying that. He’s high up in all of that, but he is far from the only one in that muck. And it certainly didn’t end when Epstein died.
KnitWit@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Trump once hosted party for ‘young women’ where Epstein was only guest, says report91·7 days agoTo be fair, this was all information that was published before. Just like now, it changes absolutely nothing for his supporters.
Not to say that the dems aren’t terrible at messaging. But this seems to be more of a case of Trump having so many scandals that people forgot the details of this one. Saw someone post the other day that they went to Epsteins wikipedia page and had completely forgotten large swathes of it. Its just too much, too fucked up, for people to hold on to it.
And the worst part is, none of it is hidden. The video from the 90s (maybe early aughts) that had him speaking about his good friend ‘who, you know, likes them a little on the young side,’ was from Inside Edition (iirc). Dude casually admitted his friend was a pedo and it gets published as a puff piece.
None of this is new, none of this is unknown, its just unbearably fucked up.

Illegally pulled over and searched (oregon plates). Wasn’t even remotely surprised it happened. Fuck Oklahoma, apologies to those who have to live there.
KnitWit@lemmy.worldto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Woman attacked driver that hit, killed chicken that was crossing the road, per policeEnglish11·7 days agoYesterday while driving, I hit two different birds in the span of about 15 minutes. I was going under the limit both times and definitely wouldn’t try to hit them. The second one looked like it was going to miss me before it turned and went straight at the windshield. Real tucker and dale moment for me.
KnitWit@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump sues Wall Street Journal for libel over Epstein letter29·8 days agoYou don’t print that unless you’ve at least seen a copy, probably not without being able to show it as well. If somehow Murdoch has turned on him, he now can access discovery, which would be wild.

-Seven
Oh that’s not so bad.
-…Seven pages worth of mentions.
KnitWit@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump sent Jeffrey Epstein 'bawdy' 50th birthday letter: WSJ23·9 days agoThe levels of weird and gross and creepy that is is just too much. And outlined in a marker drawing of a naked woman? It sounds like he was infatuated with him.
Ok, now that i’ve found my pen, what was I supposed to write down again?
KnitWit@lemmy.worldto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•The CIA reveals more of its connections to Lee Harvey OswaldEnglish5·12 days agoI also saw something at one point that claimed the solution to the magic bullet theory was just that a secret service member accidentally shot jfk after Oswald shot. And that the conspiracy/cover up is more along the lines of they didn’t want that getting out, either to protect the agency and/or the individual. In my mind this explanation makes sense, but I’m not really invested in any of it.
KnitWit@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Detained immigrants at 'Alligator Alcatraz' say there are worms in food and wastewater on the floor6·14 days agoAgreed, that’s kinda what I’m getting at. This whole term has been with the understanding that the narrative has become fully divorced from the reality. Scary times.
KnitWit@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Detained immigrants at 'Alligator Alcatraz' say there are worms in food and wastewater on the floor118·14 days agoThe fact that these problems are present at the beginning stages show that this was always the intended result. Obviously none of this is shocking, but it does amaze me that they don’t even have the patience to pretend that it was ‘a good plan that went sour along the way’. Shows that if you have half of the nation fully captured then optics don’t even matter anymore.

Agreed, just wanted to see if the OP would admit to it as well. Fully expect either no response or a passing of the buck along the lines of ‘I want to help who need it, but people hypothetically could take advantage of the system so let’s just scrap the whole thing.’

KnitWit@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Beneath layers of waste, landfills around the US have been reaching scorching temperatures, and neighbors have been getting sick.3·24 days agoI took it as a disaster due to nuclear waste breaching containment due to high temperatures, they bring up temperatures of up to 200 degrees fahrenheit. The use of spark is likely because half the article is about the debate on ‘what is fire’ and nomenclature for these sites and its on the brain or whatever. But I could be wrong on that.
The impeachment was a farce and resulted from an obvious fishing expedition that never should have happened. However, based on the massive power difference between an intern and the literal president of the US, consent is nebulous at best, and he is a despicable person for it among other things. No one should be going to bat for Bill Clinton.
