I cancel Dollar Shaving because of the newsletter they sent out last month. Trying to figure who to go with.


I tried DE razors and sliced the F out of my face.

Coming from Dollar Shave club, I switched to Dorco razors since they are the blades that DSC uses.

Works out to be cheaper!

ETA: The handle from DSC works with these blades. FYI

Dorco Blades

They are flat out saying that only white people are racist

It seems to me that organizations the feel compelled to do such things are run by people that harbor racist beliefs. If you weren't a racist, why would you believe any of this shite enough to actually make inane proclamations that will do no more than alienate people that don't feel the guilt of racism because they're not racist?

I'm going looking for independent pharmacies now


I think going local, small business is the best way to avoid it. Big business are more susceptible to falling in with Blackmail groups. For a variety of reasons, I make an effort to buy from small local businesses rather than big chains. For one thing more of your money stays local and helps the local economy rather than the Seattle (or some other big city) economy.

ETA: failed to capitalize Black like I should have. fixed it.

I started using single edged double sided razors.

New blade every morning and it cost me .02 a day. Its a great shave.

What is racism?
While it might seem obvious, the definition of "racism" has evolved—it doesn't just refer to hate groups or bigoted comments. Racism is folded into the foundation of our country—so much so, that racism may go unseen to some who don't experience it. Racism can be direct or indirect, and affects Black people, and other minorities—of all classes, ages and genders.

Here's how Camara Phyllis Jones, MD, MPH, PhD of the American Public Health Association (APHA) defines racism:

"Racism is a system of structuring opportunity and assigning value based on the social interpretation of how one looks (which is what we call "race"), that unfairly disadvantages some individuals and communities, unfairly advantages other individuals and communities, and saps the strength of the whole society through the waste of human resources."1




Why won't Walgreens do their part and give free medical supplies and prescriptions to all non-white people?

The Walgreens and CVS takeover of the drug store businesses is the biggest threat to public health.

As a small retailer, I can tell you that one of our biggest fears is someone coming in the store and making some sort of claim about mistreatment. For some reason, that seems to be a bell that can't be unrung.

I guess I’ll use the local independent pharmacy even though it’s a little out of my way

take a copy of the mailers with you, go into their store and walk out without paying for anything - when they attempt to stop you yell RACIST! at them and hand them the mailer

Systematic Racism huh?

Walgreens and others really need to work on correcting this chart instead... From the NYC 2019 Police statistics.



It's this that no one wants to speak of... So they use diversionary tactics of "Racism"

According to FBI stats, the number one killer in America is: (drumroll please) - young black males from 16 - 26 years old.

But the problem is the Cops...
