a 2006 law that forces them to fund their retirement plan for 75 years in advance

Congress actually fixed this a couple years ago: https://apwu.org/postal-service-reform-act-2022

They lump Sears in with Lands End, which they spun off over a decade ago. So even though it may still exist, no way is it accurate.

This app still has Sears in it. No way is it properly maintained.

I'm in the US and I see this if I zoom out a bit.

Cute attempt at an analogy. Mind if I try?

"You can't argue with a crazy murderer. So let's try to convince the people standing in front of his house with knives to turn them against him instead of driving them into their own chests while he watches."

Inaction is a choice. You're not a victim when your choices lead to your own suffering. The only victims are the ones who saw what was coming and tried to do whatever they could to stop it. Everybody else got what they chose.

Politics is like religion for those that voted for Trump. You can't tell them that their "god" sucks and you should follow this other "god".

So you have to go after the agnostics or the blue voters that "don't go to Church every Sunday", so to speak.

I mean on the whole, yeah, humanity is doomed. But hopefully this helps you understand.

Do you live under a rock? She's possibly the most popular female country singer (after Dolly Parton) and the 2nd most well-known American Idol winner (after Kelly Clarkson).

I mean, she's dead to me along with Snoop Dogg after all of this but by no means is she a nobody.

More or less is proving my point no?

Thanks for encouraging your kids to have diverse interests and hobbies instead of letting a glowing screen raise them. I don't have children but if I did I would hope to achieve the same for them.

You're expecting Zoomers and Gen Alpha irreversibly addicted to short-form video content, which has resulted in an attention span that doesn't extend past 30 seconds, to READ?

It's also a cartoon for children.

You have too much faith.

Most won't stay away. Most are deeply and horribly addicted. They faced their withdrawal symptoms for one day. They get got their next hit and now they're in deeper than ever before.
