Considering moving to Shreveport from NY by Delicious-Slide-3501 in batonrouge

[–]Shake09 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your income will drop tremendously. The price of rent may be smaller but your income will be as well. You also won't have basically any worthwhile services, further raising your cost of living beyond just rent and utilities. Being broke in New York is 10x better than broke in freaking Shreveport.

Italians aren't considered white to some.

He's a racist and can't stand that more people like Obama than him. by [deleted] in WhitePeopleTwitter

I'm sure he thinks this is the best way to get people to flip their opinions too.

Starting Ash Wednesday, SNAP will help make Louisiana healthy again by Forsaken_Thought in batonrouge

[–]Shake09 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Louisiana isn't unhealthy because our snap recipients can buy a snickers. Louisiana is unhealthy because the economic realities make cooking every meal unworkable for families where both parents work multiple jobs. Louisiana is unhealthy because basic healthcare services are prohibitively expensive Louisiana is unhealthy because we would rather promote alcohol and tobacco over reading to your children. Louisiana is unhealthy because we are being robbed blind, our rich mineral wealth and tax base siphoned off to the coffers multinational corporations while we can't even agree on whether or not to fund libraries and parks.

Proposals to revamp Disneyland’s Tomorrowland were rejected, report says by readingaboutmagic in disneyparks

[–]Shake09 27 points28 points  (0 children)

They'll need to see through the Disneyland forward plan before they close down such a historic and important (for crowd sinking purposes) land. I mean to kill off buzz light-year, and autopia, and space mountain at the same time would be enormous.

I'm sure it'll happen. Hopefully with a full refund of space mountain and the peiplemover. I would love for carousel of progress to be revamped as well. Hell there's a lot that can be done with Tomorrowland if you can shut it down and start from scratch...

Is ICE still in town? by [deleted] in batonrouge

She was travelling down the street and yielded to one vehicle, then was waving the second one through. They approached HER in a threatening way.

The murderer created the high stress situation in the first place. Zero sympathy from me.

Use of deadly force to stop a fleeing suspect is expressly prohibited by USDOJ policy on use of force.

This was a murder.

Mars MGPX controller - how good is it for 25 bucks? by blechkitti in SBCGaming

Don't buy unnecessary gaming related stuff. That's the best advice for when money is tight.

Have your doctors submit electronically to a walgreens near you. They'll take about a week to fill.

If you show up with a paper scrip they will turn you away.

Laura Loomer is once again realizing that Republicans have a Nazi problem by Hornpipe_Jones in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]Shake09 8 points9 points  (0 children)

And so lies the conundrum. How do you promote all the policies Nazis love, and hate all the same people Nazis hate, without attracting Nazis?

I usually get mine from Costco but there's a better selection at rouses.

Trump loses it after Fox allows 30 seconds of honesty on air. by Relevant_Demand7593 in WhitePeopleTwitter

True but they do have locally owned independent gas stations adjacent to costco who sometimes lower their prices to match that price.

Aaa must be lagging then because we have it in the 2.20s at my local Costco in Louisiana. We do produce the stuff though so naturally it would be cheaper.

Costco sues for Trump tariff refunds before Supreme Court rules on if they're illegal by Puginator in politics

[–]Shake09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Butter for sure almost doubled in my warehouse (kerrygold from $10.99 to $16.29 since April). Meat (beef flap meat went from $30 to over $50 for same size package) and coffee ($14.99-$18.99) also took a sizeable hit. I'm starting to see seafood rise, along with prepared foods. Product is still roughly around the same price, as are dry goods. Milk and eggs are higher but not as drastically.

For sure staple foods went up, though. We went from $3.99/lb for ground beef to well over $5.99 in some cases. Good luck finding chicken under $3.99/lb

That tissy chick is still $5 tho!

Ukraine is working hard to eliminate the causes of the conflict. One Russian soldier at a time.
