  • every single “blowout sale” and “bargain bananza” is, below a thin veil, just a “capitalism and economy fest”. honestly, good for steam for just cutting the bullshit and telling it like it is. if Happy Honda Days just renamed to “we want money, we want you to give us money” we’d be a lot better off, because i wouldn’t feel deceived into thinking it’s a celebration of any kind…

    i used to work in retail marketing, we had little “brainstorms” for all the big sales and events, i would have fucking loved to pull out an idea like this and have it actually go ahead




  • what does the article say? i’d like to know more about this, but there’s a paywall

    edit, thanks to gpt-4 i was able to get a summary:

    A large explosion occurred in downtown Fort Worth, Texas, on Monday, January 8, 2024, around 9:30 a.m. local time.

    The blast was caused by a natural gas leak at a construction site near the Fort Worth Convention Center.

    The explosion injured at least 15 people, including four construction workers and 11 bystanders. Two of the injured are in critical condition.

    The explosion also damaged several buildings and vehicles in the vicinity, and caused a fire that was quickly contained by firefighters. The authorities are investigating the cause of the gas leak and the extent of the damage. They have asked the public to avoid the area until further notice.
