We weren't poor but growing up McDonald's was like a once a month thing and road trip food and it was always a treat. Just give the little tykes a small fry and soda once in a while, it aint gonna kill them.
They do it to trick parents into thinking it's healthy(er) and it's okay to feed your kids it more often. The problem was never the tallow fried french fries or the 16oz "small" soda. The problem is parents who take their kids to McD every other day instead of cooking them homecooked meals.
I don't have data or statistics to back it up but I bet the parents who regularly feed their kids the new happy meal twice a week feeds their kids all sorts of other garbage as well. And the kids who eat happy meals twice a week most likely leaves the apple slices untouched like the touchpads of the steam deck.
The problem with Happy Meals is that it comes with milk and slimly apple slices in liue of soda and fries and if you do get fries it's half the size of a small fry unless you go thru the hassle of asking for soda and a small fry.
What they should've done is let people order a kids happy meal with fries and soda and just call it a "classic happy meal" and everyone will be happy and no one will order the shitty big mike friendly bullshit happy meal.
Haven't been to McD in around 5 years so maybe thing changed.
Dude's gonna be so sad when he finds out that one or even both of the kids ain't his and the sperm he put in the freezer prior to getting snipped got mixed up in the cookie icing.
But hey, they were cute cookies and they tasted especially agreeable to him.
It's always bittersweet re-watching the star wars trilogy. By the end of V I'm always thinking: golly, I could watch 100 sequels if it was like V
A damn shame. Haven't even watched most of the new Star Wars products, watched 1-3 once, Mando is good but only because everything else is crap.
100% this, I seen enough shit on reddit to know that if you wanna show off something you need to take a shitty picture of it in front of something. If she had just took a picture of the painting on her painting setup with a thumbs up she'd get a hella lot more upvotes than the first picture.
But having a girl holding it and taking ownership of the work? Oh baby, that's retard... I mean reddit, that's reddit catnip.
Peak Rachel Riley was the best, but she's got that fuller mommy face going on right now. Also, Being in her mid-30s and having 3 kids doesn't help.
Like all television I've been watching in the past few years, thank God old shows.
American here, I thought 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown was an amazing show (Rip Sean Lock.)
The quality went to shit a few years back and I stopped watching. This year I watched an episode from the newest season, it has gotten even worse, just garbage. The token checklist guest doesn't even try and worse they're not funny.
Thank goodness for old episodes I can go back to in a few years.
Same thing happened to Taskmaster but even quicker they started with heavy tokenism and got more checklist requirements added as the seasons went on. Shame.
This is my booty dance, I just post this as a reply whenever someone comes around.
I was gonna try my hands at ebsynth and trying to "paint over" Death with matching frames from the comics. But this, this is leaps and bounds better than anything I can accomplish.
They should do Sandman while they're at it. And dubb over woke narrative with poop sounds.
The DC Mayor criticized Abbott and Ducey for their roles in creating the “growing humanitarian crisis,” but also took aim at the federal response, which she said “has been lacking in some respects.”
Blaming Abbott and Ducey for the "growing humanitarian crisis" is like blaming the supermarkets for running out of food during a famine.
Retard.
Are you currently under contract with them? If not you can always call and ask them what promotions they're offering at the moment. It'll involve signing a 2-3 year contract but if you're already with them and they offer you a deal why the heck not? Just tell then you want the most basic package and get a quote.
And it sounds like comcast don't have much competition where you live so that will gives you little to threaten them with. I've been with comcast for years and I always swore I'd leave the moment fiber comes to town and the moment AT&T lay fiber at my neighborhood Comcast has done everything short of giving me blowjobs to keep me as a customer. Still, doesn't hurt to threaten them with leaving or asking them to match your local competitors even if century one suck balls.
If you're a poor there's programs you can take advantage of. No shame in taking something you qualify for especially when it's your tax dollar anyways.
Here are some key bits
men (52.3%) women (47.7%)
average age of MAID recipients in 2021 was 76.3 years, slightly higher than the average age in 2019 and 2020 (75.2 and 75.3 respectively).
The greatest proportion of persons receiving MAID in 2021 were in the 76-80 age group (16.3%), followed by the 71-75 (15.8%) age group and 65-70 (14.7%) age group. This is a slight change from 2020, where the majority of MAID recipients were in the 71-75 (16.2%) age group. Similar to previous years, in 2021 the majority of MAID recipients (95.1%) were age 56 and up, with 83.3% who were age 65 and older.
4.9% of recipients were between the ages of 18 and 55.
From Canada health's own annual report
In 2020, there were 7,595 cases of MAID (Medical Assistance in Dying, kawaii cute naming assholes) reported in Canada, accounting for 2.5% of all deaths in Canada.
The number of cases of MAID in 2020 represents a growth rate of 34.2% over 2019. All provinces experienced a steady year over year growth during 2020.
When all data sources are considered, the total number of medically assisted deaths reported in Canada since the enactment of federal legislation in mid-2016 is 21,589.
2.5% of all deaths with 34.2 percent growth year over year? Yikes
edit: oh... article linked the report towards the bottom, I didn't read that far before I stopped reading and looked into it myself because everything on the internet is a lie until proven otherwise.
I ran it thru stable diffusion as "an impossible man making love to antonio of venice in a locked office supply closet" and this is the best one out of five.
and one more oil painting
