  What’s Highguard?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Papa Johns is closing 300 locations⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Blackrock Inc. owns the most shares in Papa John’s. Shaq just owns around a dozen franchises in the Atlanta area and was on the Board of Directors until he stepped down in 2024.

  He is like a spoiled child, just like his shitstain cabinet. I wish there were some way we could identify those who voted for him in 2016, 2020, or 2024 and tattoo an orange T on their foreheads so they could never go anywhere again without ridicule and harassment.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Green Party wins Gorton and Denton by-election with Labour pushed into third by Reform⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Serious questions, not snark: Why does it matter who came in 2nd vs 3rd and why is the story being titled “Greens crush Labor” almost everywhere I see it? Is there something transformational about this single MP election?

  I disagree. They asked to add an additional election to all the atoms, not each atom, so the genie could interpret it as adding a single electron to the universe.

  I always thought “jury-rig” was a nautical term that fell out of use centuries ago and has only reappeared because some people who heard the phrase “jerry-rigged” and were not familiar with the word “jerry” thought they must have said “jury”. Meh, wouldn’t be the first time I didn’t know what I was talking about.

  I think many people forget that these deluded middle of the road hogs think that they are just one lucky break or miracle away from being the rich and connected themselves. This is why they insatiably lick their spittle. Prosperity gospel tells them so.

  Pretty sure eagles are in the out group, so they deserve to die. /s

  Maybe if Dear Orange Leader tells them to give a shit about eagles, they might…

  Thank you for saying “jerry rig” and not “jury rig”. I looselose my shit everytime I “hear it”.

  Do comments around here get disappeared or hidden if they get enough downvotes? If not, then I could give two fucks whether a comment gets 1 downvote or 100.

  Except he wouldn’t. Reagan was an actor reading a teleprompter (and much like Dubya and Drumpf) really didn’t have positions or politics of his own. Just another fucking sock-puppet. Now if you also had one of Reagan’s “handlers” rise from the grave and tell Reagan’s corpse to go on a rampage over this, you might have something.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm in!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I think that for the gun industry/lobby it is all about the money, but it is about hatred, fear, and revulsion of the outgroup for the rank and file. Most businesses (even ones riddled with MAGA) would happily sell their wares to trans, browns, gays, muslims, etc. out of one side of their mouth, while decrying these groups and their rights out of the other side.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Quidk! I need a chili recipe. What would you add to a pound of hamburger, diced jalapenos, chili powder and bloody mary mix?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  A bottle of India Pale Ale. A variety of beans: butter, kidney, northern, lentils, etc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What television series in your opinion had very good writing and character depth?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I used to like the English version of The Killing better (and I still think it is amazing). I watched them both not long after they came out. I just went back and watched them both and now I like the Danish version better.

  Gee, I wonder if the corporations will win these cases?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨10+ year manager named Joe was apparently fired for bringing cookies to be thrown away before their sell by date to a food pantry in my town⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep. This is exactly why. It makes logical sense if they only thing that matters is profit. Several places that I worked would allow the public to come in and request these “about to be tossed.” items to take for free. You had sign up, provide ID, and come right at closing time, though, to do it. The employees were not allowed to do this for the reason rumba gave.
