Thanks. Added them to a list, with a number of others I found on the dei.watch website.

Is there a list of retail companies that are still committed to DEI policies? The only one I know of is Costco.

Edit: I did some more digging and found this website - dei.watch. The following are some of the ones listed as ‘committed’ on there at the time of writing:

• Albertsons
• Best Buy
• Costco
• CVS
• Dick’s Sporting Goods
• Dillard’s
• Dollar General *
• Dollar Tree *
• Guess
• H-E-B
• Home Depot
• Home Goods
• Ikea
• Lidl
• Marshall’s
• Meijer
• Patagonia
• Petco
• Publix
• REI
• Ross
• TJ Maxx
• Walgreens
• Wegman’s

Note: I’ve only listed physical store retailers who sell items (not restaurants) with either a nationwide presence or a significant number of retail stores. I’m sure I’m missing some, but this is a start.

*This chain might have an active DEI policy they are supporting and maintaining, but even among retailers they are also famous for treating their employees horribly.

Ohh right. They are (or at least used to be) run on a multilevel marketing strategy.

The ‘states rights’ argument is so superficial. I have no idea why anyone still believes it. The Republicans have shown time and again that states rights only apply when it fits their agenda. And that they will use it as a convenient puppet during election cycles to do gullible voters, only to renege on it as soon as they are back in office.

I’m sure the mild finger-wagging he gets will really make him reflect on his mistakes. /s

I swear, every time this guy is in the headlines it’s for increasingly stupid noob security mistakes.

I’m expecting a headline in a few days saying “Mike Waltz falls victim to Nigerian Prince email scams on a daily basis.”

The remarkably calm kid near the top of the painting who is being eaten by two dragons: “Well, I guess this is my life now. Oh well.”

In a sea of bad news this is a much-needed buoy of hope. Great job Wisconsin voters for standing up against corruption!

Newsmax should just rebrand themselves as a meme coin, so they can go full circle. They are a joke already.

He’s the physical embodiment of the Dunning Kruger effect. A walking, (awkwardly) talking nepo-baby man-child who is a self-proclaimed expert in everything despite knowing next to fuck all. He and Trump are like peas in a pod.

“B-but the old testament said…”

That retort gets so fucking old. At the same time as many fundies talk about how Jesus ushered in a new era of laws, they cling on to the bullshit written by randos hundreds of thousands or years earlier.

These are the same books that shout about how eating shellfish and mixing fabrics are affronts to God. The same ones that herald how virtuous a guy is because he was going to murder his own kid because of a talking bush. The same ones that go into graphic detail about donkey emissions. And yet certain snippets are still relevant in the midsts of all that dross? Give me a break!

And before any Christians respond, know that I (and others) don’t care. You can obsess over the old testament all you like. If you find value in their writings then good for you. But don’t force that discriminatory, hateful crap on other people.

Edit: fixed a typo.

Be careful, you might hurt his delicate fee-fees! /s

But seriously, yes, screw him. He’s a toxic, narcissistic, man-child nepo-baby who has conned his way to the top, climbing on the backs of better people.

Musk has a very different definition of ‘evil’ than I and many others do.

One of the few campaign promises he actually kept. But yes, it was obvious to anyone with half a brain that this administration would gut social security. So you get what you deserve.

The people I feel bad for are the minority of voters who actually saw this coming and didn’t vote for him. They are stuck in this horrible situation because of all the stupid dipshits who are getting their faces eaten by leopards right now.

Elon Musk: “It’s not a lie if you believe it!”

Damn, that’s crazy.

Sounds like it’s time to find a new bank.

Edit: Although with these changes I wouldn’t be surprised if as bunch of banks start preventing people from turning it off. Credit unions might be a bit better though.

It’s really unfortunate. Most banks and credit unions turn on overdraft protection by default. And many of them make it difficult to turn it off (burying it in online app/site menus, requiring people to call in or go into a branch to deactivate it, etc.). They do this because overdraft fees are a massive source of profit for them.

But it’s pretty easy for people to get trapped in a vicious cycle of debt due to these fees. Most people don’t know they can turn these off, and some don’t even realize they are in place to begin with.

That makes sense. Spez is such a spineless dweeb, it checks out that a narcissistic blowhard like Musk would be pushing him around.

Fire tons of real scientists, and hire a quack. So much efficiency!

It went away… like a miracle!
