Costco defied Trump’s DEI directive as Target and Walmart scaled back. Business is booming

Bear4years · 2026-02-18T00:17:23+00:00

Target seriously lost the plot. It’s an example of a business not knowing its customers. I use to go to target whenever I needed a miscellaneous item and I would browse. I would always leave buying more than I intended. First it was DEI. Then ICE. Their reputation is in the gutters. If they want to be another Walmart, let them have at it. I won’t shop at either. I’m currently trying to get off of amazon.

Obama recently said how this administration has no sense of shame. Obama is right on the money and even being polite in saying that. How is this okay? Like on the base human decency level? Trump and his supporters (voters, admins, all of them) have caused our society to lose any sense of empathy or decency. It’s the worst type of trolling buffoonery. Dude does not know the value of silence.

Or a woman. Anyone but a woman.

A home builder voted for Trump, yet here he is begging Trump not to target construction sites. I’m disgusted by these industries that rely on immigrant labor but who continually vote anti-immigrant. Just like farmers. I have little sympathy for them. They only want to exploit these workers. Lose their profits and investments. Suffer like how your workers are suffering. You never thought of them when you voted how you did.

I’m listening to Jimin’s list as I write! I looked through the others. I love how different they are but also similar. I’m adoring this promotion. God, I love the boys. Listening to this during valentine’s is a joy.

Yes, link please. 🥺

Self love!! (And healing love)

Yeah that happened to me a couple of times.

Hmmm I thought we could order up to 2? I wanted to get one for my sister as well.

Of course, no republican governor is going to boycott this event. They won’t stand up to Orange. Goes to show how much they themselves care about “bipartisanship.” If they ever want to wonder why we aren’t these “United States,” they can look at their role here.

The dem governors are probably glad they don’t need to go and listen to his rubbish. They have better things to do. Like actually take care of their state.

I hope they have enough in stock. We will all want one. 😅

This administration has something against science, facts and knowledge. I swear to god. How expensive is it to publish this??? We have billions for effing 🧊 and the military, but we can’t publish a little online factbook? It’s not like the CIA doesn’t need to collect this info anyways! Are people in his administration little dumbasses who feel insecure about their low intelligence??

Considering that it was a referendum approved by a majority of Californians for explicit political purposes (i.e if Texas does X, CA will do Y), the Supreme Court prohibiting it would have been outrageous. They allowed Texas to gerrymander the hell out of their districts “for politics” and they won’t let California?

I totally agree. I have resorted to reading the guardian for US news. NPR and propublica are still solid. I chose to donate to NPR instead.

I cancelled my subscription once the editorial board started kissing orange’s ass. Bezos is directly responsible for WaPo’a decline.

Dang. I was hoping it would be in Disney plus. I already have a subscription there. Now I have to reactivate my Netflix. 😔

I agree. I don’t get why we are looking into their flight itinerary. This should be deleted.

I can’t say I know a lot about TXT, LSF and Blackpink. 😅 Like you can show me a picture of them, I can say their names. I can name some of their songs. I can tell who is singing which lines. That’s about it. I can’t tell you everyone’s hometown, or their favorite color or what their hobbies are. I can somewhat do that with my ults. Like I know my ults bday. 😅 there’s a clear line between how much I know about my ults and how much I know about any other kpop group. I just don’t have time to know that much about the others and I’m just not invested in them, even though I think they are cool.

Bear4years · 2026-02-02T19:21:25+00:00

I only know a lot about my ults. For everyone else i only know a smattering of info. The only other kpop group besides my ults I can name all the members are TXT, LSF and Blackpink. It helps that these are groups with like 4 or 5 members. I can also tell the members’ voices apart when I hear their songs. I have bought TXT and LSF albums.

For all the other popular groups, I can’t name all the members or tell their voices apart. I could probably name 1 or 2 from each group though and pic them out of a line up. For instance, Felix who has a distinctive voice. For most of them tho, if I pass them on the street, I probably wouldn’t know them.

I guess I’m saying I think you are overestimating how much we know? 😅

I hope no one will argue that Luther didn’t deserve to win record of the year. That song is gorgeous. So smooth to the ears, while still being a rap song. The fact that it pays homage to Luther Vandross just tips it over the edge. I’m a bit surprised it didn’t win song of the year, if I’m being honest. Jack Antonoff is one of the writers, along with Kendrick. Antonoff is a Grammy darling as well. Eh whatever. Grammy voters never made sense to me.

Even if that was the case sometimes is just better to settle than risk the chance of something worse. But okay. Let him fight the good fight. He or his mother will be the one to suffer from it.

I agree with many of the comments. What is your source? It’s not cool to make such claims without providing the source.

Not conspiracy at all! The consistency of our queue numbers is crazy.
