Bought on PC, Switch, Vita, phone… not even ashamed.

It could very well be that yours are “good” rechargeables! Mine are just Amazons brand lol. If I use them in my locks I have to change like every 4-5 weeks.

All the things I have that use batteries don’t seem to function well on rechargeable (such as my electric door locks). So I also have a bunch of them I don’t know what to do with and still have to buy disposable. 😔

Don’t want to be the bearer of bad news, but the US has still been using asbestos. Just this month they finally banned chrysotile asbestos which is still in use.

They acquired Alien Blue, but what they put out under “Reddit” was not Alien Blue in the least bit. They basically bought it to kill it. I had Alien Blue. :(

I haven’t watched their videos in a long time but I actually listen to a few of their podcasts… damn how wild. One of their podcasts posted on IG they’d try to keep going.

Additionally, I’m not flipping light switches while controlling a giant machine capable of killing people. Not sure why they compared the two.

Sorry, I wasn’t trying to dispute that anti-union had existed for decades. I was just trying to feel out why I’ve never heard people speak ill of unions or seen anti-union propaganda in my area. I don’t imagine we have a disproportionate amount of happy union workers to counteract the propaganda.

I wonder if it’s a regional thing? Growing up I never heard bad things about unions, and when I found out the job I’m currently in is union I was pretty happy. For the record I’m in my early 30s in the Midwest, which is not exactly widely liberal.

the size difference helps in Norways favor too I imagine (and probably shape too!)

There are huge swaths of the US not covered. You could be driving between two cities less than an hour apart and hit dead zones.

I bought some from Target a few years ago!

If you were curious, there’s a name for those: skorts! They were very popular when I was a kid.

When discussions like this happen I think it’s good to actually suggest alternatives!

I don’t listen to audiobooks, but a lot of people I know use libro.fm

Also your local library probably partners with Hoopla and/or Libby which allows you to borrow audiobooks straight to your PC/phone!

I genuinely love the cacophony of cicadas and I live in the Midwest so I’m thrilled for this!

I agree with all your text but

Initially the online site either didn’t have 3rd party sellers or it was very limited. But now those have taken over a lot of categories and products, making the Target website as hit or miss as the others, so there’s no real incentive for me to check them out when I’m shopping.

I find this experience particularly annoying. I go to Target.com to find stuff sold by Target. I don’t need another place for random no-name companies to hawk their wares. Especially since a lot of it just seems like drop ship crap.

I suppose this is related to your “users are inactive” point but I also feel like it’s more common on Reddit to have multiple/alt accounts. Hell, in my time on Reddit I think I made 7+ accounts.

Enshitification is the new buzzword people love to use in any example of companies being horrible regardless of if it’s correct or not.

Or your library, some even digitally so you can just get them on Libby and not have to drive to the library! Plus then you can screen cap your favorite recipes. 😁

You might be mildly allergic? Bananas as soon as they hit my stomach make me feel like I’m going to throw up.
