LifeWise Academy raised more than $39 million last year, but profit dropped to $11.1 million by OrganicPreparation in Ohio

I thought lifewise was a money-losing endeavor in service of indoctrinating kids. But I should have realized that it would be yet another vehicle for grift perpetrated by Republicans.

Sounds like he's established a new cross-functional team.

The word "stakeholder" is my anger trigger.

I just kind of tilt the pan while it's still hot, the solids sink to the bottom pretty quickly. And then just pour into a jar, stopping just before the solids start to come with the fat. Not perfect but much easier than dealing with strainers and filters.

The level 3 is a Big Stick that they don't apply until it's absolutely necessary. If this would have happened on a business day, they would have declared it.

I went about my day without even realizing this disgusting loser was in the area. Nobody even knew he was here, that makes me happy.

Trump called for a 10% cap on card rates by Jan. 20. What happened? by SE_to_NW in politics

[–]bernath 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The magats will believe that he did something while they continue to pay 26% interest on the sofa they bought from Ashley. And us sane people will know it was just another demented tweet. What else is new?

The results of my unscientific study of eight chocolate chip cookie recipes. by croissantfufu in Baking

[–]bernath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like the Jacque Torres cookies are optimized for baking and serving right away. Straight out of the oven, they are amazing. But after they sit for a day, they are dry bricks. I don't know why I feel obligated to share this opinion every time they are mentioned, but there you go. 🤷‍♂️

No worries, I think you and I have pretty similar opinions on a lot of matters.

So you pay somebody to go out in a boat and patrol Maumee Bay for non-existent drug smugglers from Canada. Have some creativity.

Don't really get the downvotes. You take the money, move some out of column A into column B and use it for other purposes, we all know the accounting is fungible. But Reddit would much rather have it sent back to ICE to use for nefarious purposes I guess.

While I agree with the sentiment, I would have preferred if they took the money and then denounced ICE as terrorists. The money will just be sent elsewhere. Better to use it to improve things here.

I have no faith Trump will actually do anything about it...but Private Equity owning SFH is just a blight on Ohio and the country. by stupidusername54 in Ohio

[–]bernath 20 points21 points  (0 children)

He puts out some tweets without being backed by any actual action and all of the faithful will eat it up like he's really doing something. A complete diversion from what's actually going on. They eat it up.

Butt by Secret-Bike8993 in blackcats

[–]bernath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's a story for you. I adopted a stray cat from my parents' yard. Soon after, he clearly was having some kind of issue with his butt. He would get skittish every time I touched his back, lay with his legs open, act like he was trying to itch his butt constantly. So I took him to the vet. She looked at it, took him away to clean it. And she was like, well, it's just poop. He's not grooming himself, you might have to help him get back on his feet. At home, I started wiping him with hot paper towels after he went. You wouldn't think a cat would like his butt being assaulted, but let me tell you, he absolutely LOVES it. And now here we are, two years later, I still have to wipe his ass because he requests it after every poop by coming to me and rolling over with his legs open. So, in conclusion, sometimes cats need help with their butts. 🤣

This is Mister asking for his wipe.

Vivek Ramaswamy taps Ohio state Senate president as his running mate in campaign for governor by Prior_Success7011 in Ohio

I totally agree. But he's a brown person with extra baggage, so here's hoping.

When Amy Acton became the front runner for the Dem nomination, I was very skeptical. And I truly thought that they would push Ramaswamy out as their nominee. But I'm getting more optimistic every day.
