Some of my fondest memories w/ my maternal grandma was shopping at the Winn Dixie off Greenwell Springs road. We drank Chek drinks often. How they had Coke display mazes set up in the store w/ cardboard cut outs of Mark Martin and/or Darrell Waltrip in the store www.theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/...

Winn-Dixie to pull out of Louisiana. Here are the plans for some of the state's 13 stores.

The company said it has reached deals to sell its stores at 8601 Siegen Lane and 13002 Coursey Blvd. to Texas-based Brookshire Grocery Co.

My husband has requested that I make this announcement: in the corpse of the Esplanade Mall lives a Dillard's clearance/outlet store, with a selection of menswear at excellent prices as far as the eye can see.

He just found it and wants it to be heavily utilized so it doesn't close haha.

“Over the past two decades, the number of news desert counties – areas that lack consistent local reporting – has grown steadily. This past year was no exception: in this report, we are tracking 213 U.S. counties without any local news source, up from 206 last year.”

I can't really explain fully why this is the thing of all things that got my jaw on the floor but I guess it's such a literal symbol and also such a jaw dropping amount of money while small businesses are struggling to survive the tariffs

Such a visible "go fuck yourself"

Shutdown Follies, Day 20

Today, is the 77th day of 89 that Speaker Pornhub Moses will have the House adjourned, WITH PAY. Nice work if you can get it. House Republicans have worked 12 days in 3 months. Whatever is in the Epstein Pedo-Files must be super-bad for Hair Füror.

Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement.

Check out how tiny the crowds were:

Philly: 200
DC: "several hundred"
Boston: 500
Austin: 1,000
Houston: 2,000

if republican attacks on the ACA succeed, we don’t get a better health care system out of the deal, we just lose what we have. this is blindingly obvious to anyone who has even paid passive attention to the last 15 years of national politics.

Every weekday on Broadway, undocumented immigrants line up to enter 26 Federal Plaza. They enter harshly lit hallways where ICE agents mill around — waiting to take people away. For our cover story, Stephanie Keith captures the anguished scenes of arrest in downtown Manhattan. buff.ly/N6JNPUP.
