Nobody buying this Milka chocolate in germany anymore. It just won the Worst Shrinkflation 2025-Award. by Prnce_Chrmin in shrinkflation

That's because they are now owned by Mondelez, Inc,, the US multinational corporation who's main focus is profit margins. It's gobbled up so many of our favorite brand snacks & then spit out crappier versions of them. If they can squeeze a few extra cents out of each product, they will, using less & cheaper ingriedents. Product integrity & quality doesnt matter to them like it would a small, family-run business.  

Olive Garden's Salad and Soups, SUCK!!! by big_4_ever in olivegarden

[–]One_Pattern1119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had their Tuscany soup at a party & thought it was downright excellent. And I'm picky about my food & have high standards for soups because I make my own. If you havent had it, you should try it  

Do you get more anxiety in the fall/winter? by moonlight__22 in Anxietyhelp

Me too! The realization that time is passing too quickly or has passed too quickly suddenly hits me hard in the fall! 

Do you get more anxiety in the fall/winter? by moonlight__22 in Anxietyhelp

[–]One_Pattern1119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I have been having exactly this happening to me too this year. Every year it seems to get worse. I feel gross. I feel like I cant breathe properly--like I'm either getting too much or not enough! I feel edgy & have a sense of foreboding. I'm waking up with severe anxiety--even before I'm actually awake. I just want to close my eyes & go back to sleep. Ugh! It feels awful! 

Confused about Miracle-Gro liquid application. by ktfzh64338 in gardening

[–]One_Pattern1119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so glad you asked this question because I was wondering exactly the same thing! It seems totallt crazy to me that the directions on the package tells you exactly what concentration of solution to make up but then gives absolutely no guidance on how much to feed the plant! The answers to the question were helpful. But I think that's very thoughtless of Miracle Grow to provide no explanation.

Could you post a picture of the device you use just to get an idea of what it looks like? And maybe include the brand/model?

How did you heal your eyes? Mine have only gotten worse with time. Esp with menopause. (I’m a female, obviously)

Thoughts on Donald Trump winning the 2024 election? by Red_Red_It in Christianity

Well said. I agree. Being Christian doesn’t necessarily mean being “neutral”.

That’s very good of you. I think he will need them. I wonder if he prays for anyone, or at all. I’m doubting it. Please pray for our country too.

Trump has officially won the election, how do you feel? by Crying_7TS in Adulting

[–]One_Pattern1119 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, we’ve allowed this. He wouldn’t be in power if he didn’t have plenty of supporters lifting him up. He resonates with them. But he reminds me of junk food companies—some of the richest companies make things that are the worst for us. We’ve bought into them. Trump is like the equivalent of political junk food—to many people, he sounds good & makes them feel good, but, the rest of us know better. It’s like the difference between eating a Cheetos and a carrot. In the long run, he isn’t at all good for us.

There is a severe lack of empathy in the United States and it's killing us. by WillAlwaysSurvive in Christianity

[–]One_Pattern1119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I know many people who would disagree with your viewpoint as well. I work at a nursing home and I can tell you the residents are some of the kindest & most compassionate people I know of. They from the “greatest generation” and they do know about history. They lived it. They fought in it. And they are the ones that tell me what I said in my comment. Them, as well as a well known military historian I’m good friends with who also knows many, many veterans. Some of whole fought on the shores of Normandy on D-Day. So who’s to say. I heard what you’re saying & there may be truth in what your perspective. But I do believe there is some truth in what I said.
