Driving Miss Daisy - still a great movie
Posted by concrete_tiger on 4/29/25 at 4:16 pm
Popped up as a recommendation, and we watched it last night. I don’t think I’ve seen it in 25-30 years.
It held up, can’t believe how good it was. Jessica Tandy played the role to perfection - anybody that grew up in the south knew an old lady like her.
If you haven’t seen it, check it out.
If you have seen it, give it another go.

re: How many baws here still listen to the regular ole free radio these days?
Posted by concrete_tiger on 4/29/25 at 4:02 pm
Ironically, the only free radio I listen to is via streaming. The channel the Braves come on has such a shitty signal, I just use the 680 app or listen on SiriusXM. I listen to Auburn games the same way, either on the Auburn app or Sirius.
I love to sit by the fire and listen to sports, it's more enjoyable than TV announcers. Plus, fire and beer.

Doubtful. While Indians as you know them may be business-savvy and conservative, they are actually free-loading socialists. They abuse every free program and are more than happy to break rules to take advantage of laws and govt programs. Meanwhile, they remit BILLIONS AND BILLIONS back to the motherland.
I wish they'd reform or eliminate the H1-B program as part of this big beautiful bill.

12,000 tons of pork
Canceled! A Seldom Seen existential crises!
According to the USDA, America produced 12.61 Million metric tons of pork in 2024.
Therefore China canceled about 0.0001, one thousandth of a percent!
Have you seen the high-rise hog farms they have built and are building in China? Quite literally, they are 20+ story hog farms with hundreds of thousands of pigs in one building. (seems like GREAT idea when for things like swine flu...)
China 26-story hog farms
They are also going around and smashing small farm operations like G-men smashing up stills. Can't have people getting all uppity and trying to feed their own family, now.
Can you imagine the stench? Can you imagine the sound? Can you imagine the effluent in the water supply? Yummy.

We just sold a load of cows an average of $3900/head. Somebody is eatin' beef. We even sold a cull bull for $100 less than we paid for it.
Tariffs haven't been the biggest issue, honestly. It's the stupid fricking war to preserve the piggy bank Ukraine that drove up fertilizer costs.

re: Shein Hikes US Prices as Much as 377% Ahead of Tariff Increases
Posted by concrete_tiger on 4/27/25 at 4:06 pm
Because they think it will cause their shoppers to overreact.
We raised prices on a few items by a couple bucks, kept some the same, and dropped a few that wouldn’t work.
Retailers aren’t going to just accept price hikes, and they also don’t have more dollars to spend.
SHEIN sells direct, they can do whatever they want. They have opened a marketplace where they want sellers to sell on their platform like Amazon, too.

The in laws put them on their master bathroom at their beach condo.
Not only is there no sound privacy. You can clearly see into the bathroom from the bed because of the gap between wall and door.

Next: no free healthcare
That solves itself. Rural hospitals and ERs continue to die, and communities can't even get legit urgent cares established. Many have an ambulance service and the nearest hospital can be 1-2 hours away.
Consequence of ACA compliance costs and indigent care expenses that exceeded expectations. For instance, local hospital expected 40% of patients to underpay or not pay at all, and the number was twice that.

And yet they still receive them.
And schools still enroll them. They tend to enroll in poor schools, anyway... that lack ESL resources and they put a strain on the entire system. The native kids fall further behind. Even shitty schools see kids leave, and you end up with these weird enclaves of spanish-speaking schools with purple-haired teachers that are just so happy to be there and inspired.
To be fair... on the flip side... I have met some kids of questionable status people that spoke perfect English and were smart as a whip. It's not the kids' fault, but the parents shouldn't be allowed to stay without consequence just because of emotions.
