3rd Generation Italian American from Boston. Married and raised my family in Kansas.
We skipped right past assimilated to Basic and never looked back. There's no lore, no recipes and a bunch of freckles from the Irish who joined the party over the years.
Miller knows better.

Kermit is singing “We’re Doin’ A Sequel” to this one.
At the gallows, “Mr. Fink…any last words”
Confused and bewildered: I did my Fiduciary Duty, that’s all.

Some cultures invest in their children. Others go on cruises.
Remember this when your great grandchildren are working for the descendants of people who grew up and made sure their kids had better lives than they did.
Such a quintessentially Boomer headline.

Story Time! I worked at Home Depot in the 80’s/90’s and someone returned some plastic landscape edging from the Garden Center because it had a kitten in the packaging.
I got guilt tripped by the women on the service desk (one in particular 😊) and took her home. We called her Home Depot the Cat.

Everyone involved here needs to take a minute with a pencil and paper and math their way through this one.
Because 18% of these republicans can't tell the difference between manners and friendship.

Counterpoint: every homebuyer in America should inundate Pulte listings with offers at 50cents on the dollar. No down, they eat all expenses.
Then you and 3 buddies go in on an older 6-plex for 15yr and rent the other two.
Cost plus 10 max to any speculator that's selling.

2/ they talk about life like it was the comments under a Twitter post and the passive voice shields them from having to speak precisely or even critically. Assertions become fact in their estimation.

The article gets it right…the more despotic employers become, and the more public callings for massive layoffs as a “corrective stick” to remind employees who the boss is…the less ANYONE is willing to take any of it seriously.
I wonder who they’re trying to convince though.

We’re at the Terminal phase of Enshittification.
