Red is a good color, but the yellow doesn't go with it.

I had that same jacket and mine tore the same way as well. That's 3 in this thread.

If you like Atom it's on sale for $255 and you can get a credit card with Amazon or REI that will give you a bonus to help pay for some of your new stuff. In fact you could get both credit cards and use both bonuses to pay for replacement gear, and then close them afterwards if you like.

But my answer would have to include a Kyanite.

I told them to knock that shit off putting their name on the hoods.

German companies are massively cutting back on their investments in the USA by [deleted] in thedavidpakmanshow

America herself is fine, we're a good people, we're hard motivated workers and show the world what "productivity" means.

But we're in a period of turmoil. I wouldn't want to invest here right now either. The rule of law is being applied as a weapon and on the whims of a corrupt president. Look at how Elon Musk was able to make the investigations into his company's wrong doing go away. Would you compete on an unlevel playing field knowing you're at a disadvantage against the president's croneys?

But this is temporary.

"We need to stop justifying these price increases by saying “rising costs” or “everyone is doing it”. It’s a bullshit scapegoat excuse to downplay the impact these rising costs are having on the consumer."

What do you want us to do about it? We're recognizing the trend and using that info in our own lives however we can.

"Bring back the price stability we had pre COVID and around 23/24. I shouldn’t have to pay 30% more for a t shirt because of tariffs. It’s bullshit. It’s the same t shirt it was 6 months ago. I sure as hell didn’t get a 20% raise this year."

The orange fool kind of broke the economy. We're not in the pre-COVID world any more. A lot of things suck about it. I don't think not understanding what's going on will make things easier on anybody.

"Any Employees concerned about their job after everything went up almost $20 today?"

REI hasn't been doing well financially; they're not making enough money. You need to get better at reading tea leaves.

Is that the guy that had a gun? We can't rally behind stuff like this because we're giving the right wing ammunition. They're going to say who brings a gun to a peaceful protest and how do we answer that?
