Idk how I missed this comment originally but it’s very interesting. I hated every vegetable as a kid, I still don’t like most of them but I’ll push myself to eat them. I do enjoy cucumbers, and a select others fresh vegetables. (Once they get cooked… 🤮🤮🤮)
When avacados are “good” I friggin love them. It’s literally heaven for me. Idk what the deal is but I took advice from everyone in this thread and I bought a avacado and I’ll post a little update when I try it tomorrow.
I got some pictures of an avacado I bought but it’s not letting me upload it right now. I’ll try again tomorrow and I’ll try the avacado I bought tomorrow as well. Disclaimer I’m in a different state so it might be a different avacado then the one I get at home. It doesn’t say on the sticker but it looks the same
I bought an avacado with the stem off to the side with the fruit going slightly above the stem. I think it’ll be ready tomorrow to eat.
Disclaimer I am also in a different state at the moment so they might not be the same avacados I get at home. I’ll update how this one turns out.
It’s absolutely insane what they charge. Another example is an MRI
I had an MRI done a few months back. I took probably max 30 minutes of the machine’s time. My bill was $5000. Fortunately insurance covered all but $200, but collectively it raises all of our insurance rates when a hospital charges $5000 for an hour test.
I did some math. A new MRI is 1 million to 3 million dollars. We’ll go on the upper end of 3 million.
Let’s say they do 8 MRIs a day.
They make $40,000 a day per MRI A 5 day work week they bring in $200,000/week $800,00/ month
That MRI is paid off in 4 months.
I get there’s other expenses. Rent is a few thousand a month. The techs probably made $20 a piece while I was there. There’s definitely maintenance on the machines. But come on? $5,000 for an MRI?
Let’s go a little deeper and see why the actual machines are so expensive. Are they actually that expensive or is GE, Siemens, Phillips making a huge markup?
I don’t hate capitalism like a lot on here, but I believe our needs health, education, housing, electricity needs to be highly regulated and it should not be for profit.
Also sorta unrelated but not really, but I love bringing up that Corporations should not own single family housing.
Agreed. And start regulating and capping the prices of the needs like housing and healthcare
Got that one! Thank you!
I’m down to this and the target one. Thank you!!
Thank you I’m learning so much today!
It kinda looks like the same material. I’m at work and I’ll keep looking when I get off tonight and let you know what I end up going with
Lmaoo why do I have a hotel blanket
Thank you!!
Thank you. Found a similar on Target I’m looking at.
Thank you very much. Whole Cloth quilt is looking like what I’m looking for
🤣 I never even noticed
Office workers should start unionizing. If they’re going to force you into work at least make them pay you for your time.
Hell, under my plan $700 will at least get you a walk in closet sized living box with a mini fridge.
Yep, there’s a market for it so of course the landlords will do it. Housing and rent prices in this country just sickens me but this is some next level shit
$700 for this is insane. I get why they’re doing it but there’s no reason anyone should pay $700 for a bed.
San Francisco should build their own get that shit up to code, make it about 30 stories, have spots for restaurants, stores, retail at the bottom and make it actually affordable and for everyone. There should be no market for 700 a month 4 foot tall boxes. Greedy fucks.
Shit should be like $50 a month max and yea it’s dystopian AF but if people want to do it I guess whatever. Just don’t rip them off.
If they were $3 here I would’ve given up on Avocados a looooong time ago
The avocado I picked out based on the stem turned out perfectly. I loved the taste and I didn’t need to season it at all to hide anything. Thank you.
