You say that, but I personally know people who voted for Trump over Harris specifically because she was a woman. I personally know people who voted for Trump over Clinton for the exact same reason.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m fine with AOC myself and would vote for her, but to pretend that it’s a “non-issue” assumes that the average person doesn’t care. Many people do actually care, and ignoring the existence of those people is poor strategy. Maybe I’m overestimating the number of people who care, maybe not, but it is unfortunately a real concern that won’t magically go away by pretending people, as a whole, are more enlightened than that.

You have now, officially, crossed the line.

Maybe a tax rebate based on tread-wear of the damaged tire? If it still has 50% of the tread, you get a 50% rebate on your tire tax.

Consider yourself lucky.

I used them exactly one time. The driver brought the wrong food, the name and order weren’t even close.

Doordash refused to send a new driver, best they could offer was a credit for not even half the price. Even escalating customer service just got the credit converted to a refund, again for less than half of the charge. The rep could not explain to me what service I had received to justify keeping most of my money.

I wore a bandana pirate-style

But my hair was only shoulder length. I’d probably combine that with a bun.

I saw an interview with the sculptor (not a supporter, just a guy paying his bills). He said the “cryptobros” who commissioned it kept telling him to make it thinner.

They are diluting the value of eBay’s shares.

Kinda, but not really. Each share becomes $56 and like 2 new shares. It’s more like a fat dividend than a dilution.

You should look into Cohen’s track record before assuming it’ll go nowhere.

But you won’t think an 11% swing is particularly notable.

The debt is only $20B, even then it still works out to about where it’s trading now, so still not really dilutive. And it’s still under 50% leverage, which is honestly pretty typical for a large company. Assuming Cohen actually has a plan to boost profits, that debt isn’t particularly concerning.

Give it another 84 years, you’ll learn.

Finhle is Einkorn, buy the dip.

It only touched $28 in AH Friday. On the 4th, the high-low spread was not even 10%.

They have like $9B cash, and a note from TD for another $20B, which covers the cash half.

The stock half wouldn’t even really be dilutive, since they would add the balance sheet of eBay to their own, and eBay stock would cease to exist. There are currently something like 450M shares; assuming 1B new shares at $25B to facilitate the purchase, that’s 1.45B shares of a company with a market cap of $11B + $48B = $59B., which is roughly $40/share.

Eh, a big part of GameStop’s recent strategy has been getting into collectibles trading. eBay is one of, if not the, biggest market for collectibles, and they own TCGPlayer. That said, counterfeits and other fraud is a problem on eBay. One of the proposals is to use GameStop stores as authentication hubs, so listings can be verified.

Additionally, eBay spends a lot, arguably way too much, on marketing, not to mention bloated upper level compensation packages. Then there’s the friction of the service itself, like seller caps (ostensibly to combat fraud, but a bit overzealous).

I think there’s far too much potential for improvement to call the claim “delusional”.

A Marxist

It lessens it, but that’s because I’m tasting liberally while I cook.

That’s why Primer is my favorite depiction of time travel. Machine turns on at your destination time, you get in at your departure time, and it spits you out in the past. This sacrifices freedom of travel (you can’t go back to before you first turned the machine on) to solve the point-of-reference problem (the machine moves normally with the Earth).

I think typically a Rachel also substitutes coleslaw for sauerkraut.

Ironically, I’ve found that in many cases, frequently I find perfectly correct grammar to be more a hindrance to communication than a boon. In certain cases, grammatically wrong leads to fewer misunderstandings.

Who told you God is omnipotent and above humans? Who told you he or she has emotions, or smites or becomes upset or wrathful?

Any God worth naming as such is so beyond such concepts as to be entirely inscrutable. It’s people that ascribe such characteristics, usually to influence other people. In any case, it comes from an inclination to anthropomorphize the unknown, to rationalize non-human phenomena through a familiar human lens. The conflict isn’t in God, it’s in God’s self-appointed biographers.
