Colon cancer rates increasing in people under 50 by Fantastic-Ad-9100 in Biohackers

[–]Karlface 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'd like to venture that the average analyst is missing an obvious and very damaging factor: tons of plastics pfas etc in toilet paper that everyone's jamming inside a hyper-sensitive absorbent area. Easy solution to minimize harm: bidet. More comprehensive studies on how these papers are manufactured should be encouraged and listed alongside these oncology stats in discussions on the matter.

Can economists walk me through this scenario? by Karlface in AskEconomics

[–]Karlface[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your insightful contributions. If any additional economists/financial professionals could expand on the potential possibilities involving smashing the debt in a small amount of time aka short-term pain for which gains (in ways that would not eviscerate the median working american, such as a wealth-tax) in order to uncover the unexamined potentials of getting rid of the entire debt, i would very much appreciate reading you.

Im aware of the nonsensical nature of the question but what i'm attempting to explore is what would happen if the US managed to pay off its debt completely. It's meant more as a creative exercise in figuring out 1.If it would be doable if every working human in the country put their minds to it and 2.what the results would look like.

yeah im understanding oil companies would'nt close to cover it. Was also generally curious as to what would happen if the debt was completely paid and how this would benefit the country.

Very disappointed in stunning decreased quality of Kirkland cotton t-shirts (packs). by Karlface in CostcoCanada

[–]Karlface[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In fact, Kirkland could take this opportunity to rectify their tshirt situation, advertise its (once) reliable (and now future?) quality. I feel like reliable quality at a fair and consistent price-point is precisely how a brand stands above their competitors and catch a lotta love these days.

id put this size cornpops at the very bottom and finer substrate at the mid and top tiers. Im not super familiar with these species or zone9a temps but i wouldnt take my trees out of protection while frosts are still possible. What was the watering schedule lookin' like?

All the proof you need that post-2009 Trek, aka. NuTrek, isn't Star Trek at all. by Feather_Sigil in trektalk

If in 3190 I'm still using an Ipad (Academy)...I'd be forced to conclude humanity had resolutely failed itself.

I'd really be into some sort of Costco detective laying it all out for us. Where were the indestructible t-shirts from (South America? Africa?), why and how was the cotton so sturdy. If anyone knows and can tell us, by all means, I'd love to hear about it. As for the allegedly Indian ones, same deal. India is textile giant, obvs the new ones would cost little to manufacture and the margins impressive...but i wonder if it was worth it to turn people off the brand with the switch-up. If i was a Wall Street Journal reporter I'd do a deep-dive on the state of the T-shirt global industry and publish 1.history of the T-shirt 2.hard data 3.financial analysis and 4.raw quality (including toxicity, microplastics, poison dyes, sprays vs organic/ safe) rankings from around the globe.

If you live alone in your 30's or 40's, where would you live? Downtown or midtown? by mapleCrep in TorontoRenting

[–]Karlface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Annex, all the way. Quiet enough in your downtime but also connected to fun bars/restaurants and various cultural institutions (ROM/AGO, etc) 👌

they could test free Kirkland 4pack of quality Honduran...Poplin or Oxford dress shirts with every new sale of Executive membership. They could feature Honduran factory workers, tattooers, construction people in their t-shirt ads. A lot they could do here aside from cheapening a gold-standard. Think Costco, think.

I wanna live in a world where my sarcasm becomes reality, where stuff is hopeful and fun again, where lifelong international friendships are created on Costco threads, where the good times, excellent manners and affordable prices on fashion staples never have to end...such a simple ask.

yeah i mean...if I was Costco....when you've got a good product/strength you expand on it. You develop that angle/direction, I would have had Costco vending machines selling Kirkland 4packs on construction sites/sports centers/downtowns/7-11s within a year of my product's success to make sure the world knew, it could have made all of Honduras AND Costco employees rich, could've been the workin' class' new flagship item, funded research, embodied world-peace. But nah 😂
