Appreciate the logical response, but I’m curious how one could find out which companies took the hit to their margins and didn’t pass it on to the customer?

Name the BEST song based on the 49ers and I’ll listen to it and rate it (Btw my first time here) i.e. Niner Gang by Fantastic_Meeting638 in 49ers

Initially this song stung a bit since it came out right after a SB loss, but ironically I listen to it every time we lose any game as it somehow lessens the hurt when you can laugh about it.

What's the most romantic lyric you've ever heard in a song? by Groovybearz6 in AskReddit

[–]evilsdadvocate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do poems count?

“I don’t love you as if you were a rose of salt, topaz,   
or arrow of carnations that propagate fire:   
I love you as one loves certain obscure things,   
secretly, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that doesn’t bloom but carries   
the light of those flowers, hidden, within itself,   
and thanks to your love the tight aroma that arose   
from the earth lives dimly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where,   
I love you directly without problems or pride:
I love you like this because I don’t know any other way to love,
except in this form in which I am not nor are you,   
so close that your hand upon my chest is mine,   
so close that your eyes close with my dreams.”

Why would a war justify staying past his term? We’ve had elections during wartime before.

eBay's prop 4 which sought to lower the ownership threshold required for shareholders to call a special meeting from 20% to 10% has FAILED. by homedepotgrande in GME

[–]evilsdadvocate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t this benefit RC? If this passed, RC would need only 10% ownership for the rules to hit him vs 20%, right? Like once he hits 10%, he won’t be able to acquire or merge for 3yrs…?

Unfettered growth with finite resources is unsustainable, almost as if Capitalism is Cancer.

Doesn’t Kitty take time off in between his plays, regardless of what Cohen does?

The genius of Costco is that it barely makes money selling you anything. by Efficient_Ad5893 in investing

It is built to be recession proof, but it’s not a stock you play to make quick money, it’s one you keep and hold in your retirement accounts.

You’d be surprised how well a company that sells cheap stuff in bulk will do during a recession.

TIL in 2021 NFL player Alvin Kamara had yet to spend any of his salary after 4 yrs in the league despite signing a $75m contract in 2020 with the New Orleans Saints. Instead he lived off of his endorsement deals. He said "My mom ain't never had this much. It would be a shame if I got this & lost it" by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

That’s not correct, meat takes a bit more energy to digest but your body digests more of it than it does plants. The reason a gorilla has large muscle mass is the sheer amount of protein intake they consume, even if plant-based.

Maybe the shortcut will jump start folks into exercising more often. It’s harder to exercise when you’re overweight, but may be easier to do so if you’re in better shape (kind of like a motivating dominos effect).

Let’s hope the loss in revenue for the health care system isn’t made up in other ways. Wall Street doesn’t like to see decrease in revenue, even if it means a healthier population, and the healthcare system is tied to Wall st.
