No disrespect to those who go there, but every time I read an a/b/o fic where a character goes ‘breed me, alpha’ my eyelid spasms. Sir, you are not a chihuahua.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
