Dupixent has completely changed my quality of life too. I’d effectively given up on ever feeling normal again. Cheers to science!

It does really feel like the cat is out of the bag that producers anywhere in the supply chain of housing and food realized they could do whatever they want and we can all suck wind. Every significant expense I have is up more than 40% in t

The reality is more likely that because they had almost zero traction, they saw all the AI hype and decided to rework the whole product to call ChatGPT APIs to try to capitalize on the wave. I wouldn’t be surprised if it worked in getting m

I literally couldn’t buy something the other day without giving an email because “oh we’re paperless!” Was the response I got when I asked for a paper receipt instead. Of course, 10 seconds later I got a “welcome to the family!” email. Shou

Yep. Why live in a house when you can charge someone $1200/nt to stay there and a $600 cleaning fee? (Basically every house that can sleep more than 6 people in the northeast)

Yeah you live in a world where you don’t have the crushing weight of potentially having to go into life ruining debt to pay for healthcare. Where a decent college won’t put you into 200K of debt. Or not having any useful social safety net.

This is horrendous and is going to take away huge amounts of money from charities that rely on it. Charities that customers care about, not Amazon executives. The charity I support is the ASPCA, which gets significant funding from Smile and
