@JorgeStolfi@mas.toSince there is no question that gun ownership is a God-given right and essential to preserve one's security, the Biden government should create a program to give at least an assault rifle to all those citizens who cannot afford to buy one. Especially the homeless.
Texas should lead the way on this initiative.
And #BernieSanders surely will agree that Minimum Gun is more importan…

@wraithe@mastodon.socialOn my way back from the grocery store and there were three adorable little girls and their mom running a lemonade stand.
I had to pull over and back into a middle school parking driveway and walk across the street to get one, but I got a glass of lemonade!
As I was walking away, I hear a little girl yell “we got a dollar!“
😂
When you see kids selling lemonade; you buy goddam lemonade!

@StephenRees@mas.toYou just lost your right to buy prescriptions at your local pharmacist!
This week, Manulife announced it will only provide coverage of some prescription drugs at Loblaw-owned pharmacies. Most of the drugs that fall under this new deal treat chronic or life-threatening conditions like cancer, multiple sclerosis, and hepatitis C.

@scottmiller42@mstdn.socialOver and over again, I run into an article where I think "sure, I'd pay... 75 cents to read this article right now, but not another $5 auto renewing monthly charge."
I want journalists to get paid. The gutting of newsrooms is a tragedy. However, I don't want to subscribe to 25 newspapers & magazines just to read 1 to 3 articles each in a year. Let me buy an 80-article pack for $60, one-time charge. If I read a lot, I pay more.
@simon_lucy@mastodon.socialCameron threw the red meat of a Referendum into politics to buy off the right and the infra-right which sent both the party and the country into a death spiral.
That spiral has turned fully into what Cameron was avoiding, the Conservative party is now digested and the remains being picked up by the same obscurantists in new clothes called the Reform Party with Garage role playing Peel.
Perhaps Cameron's new taste of the fray gives him the impetus to form a new Tory Rump.
@beaware@social.beaware.liveSo, my friend and I have been talking about a specific viral game for weeks now and due to his history of promising to buy a game so we can play whenever he has money, I didn't buy it right away.
The ONE day I decided to take a nap, he buys it, installs it, and proceeds to start playing it without me....I don't even wanna play anymore🤦♂️
@smurthys@hachyderm.ioI passed on a chance to buy a VisionPRO at a discount. I mean HUGE discount.
I know it's programmable and everything, but it didn't seem like the right fit. Passing it along in case someone else is interested.

@chiraag@mastodon.onlineI never really understood brand loyalty, to be honest. I might buy certain brands right now because they tend to be more reliable or last long or are more ethical or whatever, but if that circumstance changes, I'm _absolutely_ dumping them. All brand loyalty (so far as that even exists for me) is purely conditional - I buy tea from ArborTeas because it's loose-leaf and they have many fair trade options. If either of those changes, they lose my business.
@unchartedworlds@scicomm.xyz"Right to Buy"
I have a theory that "Right to Buy" was an underlying tipping point for Brexit. If people had still been able to get a council house, they'd have been a lot less antsy about immigration.
If so, it's a great irony that Thatcher's big idea on housing reversed her big idea on Europe. She'd have hated that.
Also, didn't realise it had already been abolished in Scotland & Wales! Good.

@jpanzer@mastodon.socialI say to this wing of the MAGA: If you love Putin so much, you can move to Russia right now. We won’t stop you. In fact we’ll buy you the plane ticket. GTFO.

@smurthys@hachyderm.ioFeeling so stupid right now: Bought a few items at Walmart, including a *must buy*. At home I discover the must buy item is missing.
I know I paid for it but unsure it was in the cart when I got to the car. Don't think I left it in the cart. Maybe fell off the cart on the way to the car?
Sad thing is I had to visit 2 stores for the item because the 1st one didn't have it. And we needed the item urgently. 🤦♂️
Bet I'll be reminded of this each time I go to this s…
@lukem@hachyderm.ioAlso, Luminar Neo is available on sale for 83% off its original price. Of course they run subscriptions, but one-time payment is still possible.
After a few moments with free trial I'm not exactly sold, but it has one particular advantage over the one I use.
Apparently it supports HEIC and DNG files from both of my phones.

@thomastraynor@social.linux.pizzaI hope laptop makers start making it easier to upgrade and/or fix their machines. Right now it would be cheaper to buy a new one than fixing my main laptop.
