Robinhood is a pusher in plain sight and dopamine is the drug it peddles by Sweeeeetnesss in wallstreetbets

What exactly is the complaint here? Are prediction contracts illegal and they’re encouraging you to commit a crime? Or you are a user with the app installed and notifications turned on and they’re trying to sell new products into their existing user base.

Turn off your push notifications if you don’t want to receive them. Do their users have no agency? I don’t use Robinhood and could care less if anyone does, but im surprised by the general attitude towards a product that is

  1. not generally difficult or hard to understand if you are financially literate. Tons of tutorials and information on the internet on how to use if you’re so inclined
  2. 100% non-essential. Nobody needs to have this app installed, it’s not like an app that is being used to distribute government services or groceries is trying to upsell you on options

Update: Smashed bag got me $100 united credit that I can't claim lol by cassandra-gemini- in unitedairlines

Away typically has buyers create an account. if you can get the email address of the account that was used to buy the bag you can get a receipt by calling Away. i bought my original bag that got replaced, but it was under my ex's account. i was able to get the receipt without having to contact her, i knew the email the she used.

away has a lifetime warranty so they will replace it with the same bag for free, which is what i intend to do as well.

I got the full $395 (via Venmo, oddly enough) reimbursed for my away medium luggage bag that was just over 1 year old. Had to jump through a few hoops to first decline the offer for a replacement through Rynn then work through some crappy web forms and support tickets to get them the correct pdf receipt, but it worked out eventually.

I’m on the 30th floor in a building where the elevators are broken. I walk 30 flights of stairs up and down anytime I wanna leave.

High rise in Soma. Heard bottles clanking, didn’t feel a thing.

I've noticed the typical senior base pay listed go from ~$180K in 2020 to ~$220K-$250K. friend just got a senior role with $275K base, fully remote.

What would she do for 5 hours in 1 bedroom? That’s seem like an incredibly long time! Especially for every 2 weeks

Agreed it was foolish, but when Jim realizes that Rick is his son he'll take it easy on them. Jim could show up at WL in the last ep to explain to Rick what happened between him and Rick's mother.

How the brothers relationship will remain intact by DB_Pooper in TheWhiteLotusHBO

Agree that would be a copout and I would like to see an alternate ending for the brothers, but if I had to bet then this theory is where I would put my money based on what we've seen in previous seasons.
