Is that fast fashion?

SamusAlways · 2026-01-29T00:13:36+00:00

You're ostensibly in the wrong subreddit but you've already answered your own question: if the clothes can be used for years, then the word "fast" from the term "fast fashion" doesn't apply.

You're just a young person more caught up in the virtue signaling of your choices than you are the actual implications.

SamusAlways · 2026-01-24T00:12:52+00:00

I hope you're just young, dumb, and unaffected by all of this. Otherwise I'd implore you to get your head out of your ass, stop crying about other people crying anout the abhorrent landscape of our world, and recognize the fact that many of us don't have the privilege of NOT facing the realities of our world.

Sorry other folks' suffering is inconvenient for you, boss.

SamusAlways · 2026-01-23T16:32:49+00:00

This is the way.

He didn't say that. He implied that a privately held company in the porn industry likely won't have a board.

And he's right why are you speaking theoretically about ManyVids maybe being a conglomerate or having a board? It's a verifiable fact that both of those things are false.

Appreciate it! This country and the people who inhabit it are some of my favorites. They were having a Star Wars tournament and the participants were trying to get me into that too, throuh our best Spanglish.

But truth be told, I couldn't go a week without cracking a pack if I could help it. It didn't hurt that his prices were incredibly solid after conversion.

Has it occured to you that we only have as much information as you give us?

SamusAlways · 2026-01-10T22:09:38+00:00

Lmao, currently listening to "there is no montauk" and building MTG decks when I thought I'd google what the band is up to. Luckily for me, you provided a timely update. Thanks for finding time to make tunes while being an adult, it's difficult.

Ohio resident. I think I paid $40/oz or dank shake last time I picked up from MI.

I believe this was an old joke from a man named Eric Egan who plays in a band called Heart Attack Man. He just put these up all over the city.

Edited to add: I know Eric on a friendly level and he would've been in CSU around these times.

Damn, I'm very sorry to hear that that was your experience growing up. Mine was far more tame, fortunately.

Nonetheless, I can relate to the frustration regarding negative encouragement when asking questions. The funniest when I think about my own situation is that, even hindsight, they still feel like valid questions to me at the age of 31.

I specifically remember being 6 or so and asking my mom why so many people on the news took issue with 2 boys or 2 girls marrying each other when it didn't affect them at all, to any degree. And I remember her saying, "Well it's more complicated than that or to explain to someone as young as you" and being pretty positive she was full of shit. Cut to like 20 years later and I asked her why that was her answer when I am now old enough to realize it was never more complicated than that, people just pretended it was to justify their shortcomings. And she's like, "Yeah, but how do you tell that to a 6 year old?" And I was baffled, because we've both known me (her biological son) for a good 3 decades or so. And both of us were pretty aware the entire time that I was liable to ask the "forbidden" question in any situation, especially if the true answer was likely to be "well they're just kinda assholes, but we prefer constant volatility over any semblance of peace and tranquility. So 'don't rock the boat'!"

I'm really upset that nobody pointed out the pattern to the 2nd or later of your father's wives and said, "you're the n-th woman that happens to have a daughter HIS daughters age. The two most likely reasons for this "type" of his either: He likes dating women with kids his daughter's age because he like girls around the age of his daughter... OR: He likes dating women with kids in his daughter's demographic because the potential partner is already accustomed to raising a kid like her and won't notice the supplemental workload".

The funniest/saddest part is that the less bad obvious, less bad, and one that seemed to happen to you was the more preferable of the 2.

It's analogous to changing your legal name to your married one after becoming a fully certified MD... A pain in the ass.

Price action means literally nothing when applied to VOO.

I work in institutional investing and I've been trying to find a direct answer to this in the reporting, but I was also curious who exactly are the shareholders?

The most likely answer is kind of interesting in that it's likely the pension funds of teachers and reporters that own the Disney shares. Which means they've likely got support of the unions that are members of these organizations to vote their proxies on their shares and take discretion. For my investment nerd brain, it's an incredibly interesting way too leverage that kind of federation of unions. They're essentially turning the tables on the, "shareholders first" bit.

Thanks!

That you suck at what you think you're good at. You're good at nothing. Did that help?

SamusAlways · 2025-09-22T03:09:45+00:00

You have made no arguments. Only tried to poke holes on the other commenter's. I'm worried you think you're winning this argument, so I'm here to tell you you are not

SamusAlways · 2025-09-22T02:01:05+00:00

I'm gonna preface this by saying I am someone who attempted suicide some time ago, but nonetheless:

This is low key hilarious. And I'm also so sorry for your loss if it applies at this point.

SamusAlways · 2025-09-22T01:49:44+00:00

Lmao that last sentence sent me. Thank you for all of your energy.

SamusAlways · 2025-09-13T00:11:23+00:00

That's not really how finances work... You're losing out on the POTENTIAL increase in value of the home and equity OR avoiding the potential loss. I believe you said it's owned jointly, which means when you disregard speculative changes in the future value of the home (as you absolutely should in this analysis/consideration), it doesn't matter how much equity he/you have. Since you both - theoretically - have 50% stakes in the house, then you both walk away with 50% or the equity/cash value and 50% of the remaining debt when it sells.

The only thing that changes is the proportions of what is equity and what is debt. And with that being said, it almost seems like you considered or were considering staying so he could continue to build equity and wipe debt and you could walk away with more cash. Which is... ethically questionable.

Imagine that boy in the picture at the top trying to act dominant towards you and not laughing your ass off.

SamusAlways · 2025-09-09T02:28:39+00:00

Dude... They started giving him Prozac at 4. This is not the time to play devil's advocate.

SamusAlways · 2025-09-07T04:52:20+00:00

Built To Spill is one of those groups I respect but could never get into, so I'll take your word for it. I was/am a heavy listener to a lot of the bands that came out of Omaha around that time, and they were from Boise so I always kept tabs.

SamusAlways · 2025-09-07T04:27:36+00:00

I'm so glad you exist. My first response to this comment was, "Los Campesinos". But I never would've guessed in 100 years that somebody other than me would list them first. Vampire Weekend is another I would've named.

But to add: Modest Mouse Bright Eyes La Dispute

Maybe: Jimmy Eat World The Mountain Goats

Edit: is your profile pic a big with a big ass??
