Walmart credit card. They don't need to estimate when you willingly provide it.

It also gets rid of useless administration and enforcement costs.

But if you're not scanning your card with the checkout, how do they know what you purchased? Scanning on entrance just confirms that you entered the store, while scanning with checkout was used to confirm what you purchased on that trip.

Unless you're using a Costco-issued card at checkout, too, I would have same question. And if you are still scanning at checkout, then this isn't the time-saver they're purporting.

My fiancé was on the phone with her mother yesterday, explaining Project 2025 to her, and her mother literally said, "Oh, Trump wouldn't go along with all that. He used to be a Democrat, so he's petty liberal for a Republican."

They are usually self-employed

That varies wildly depending on city, county, state, and (I'm guessing) country requirements. I drove for a few years in a small-ish city, and neither me nor anyone I ran into at the usual spots were self-employed. We all worked for one of two cab companies, making hourly wages plus tip.

"Not admissible because it was illegally captured" didn't give me the warm-and-fuzzies this comment sounds like it should've.

This is not a joke, they believe this.

Except for the 78% of Conservatives in support of IVF. This article is literally about Republican lawmakers scrambling because everyone is in favor of IVF.

extremely anticapitalist and pro-leftist

There's definitely some enlightened centrist bullshit crammed in there pretty unironically.

if your goal as a parent is to maximize success of your children.

"Success" is very subjective.

early-mid 1900s

It was still happening in the late 1980s. That's why I have bad penmanship with both hands.

What are you posting, step-brother?

"Stick it on Max" still costs money? Royalties, hosting, closed captioning and translation, GUI requirements all are going to keep chipping dollars out of a product that they did not believe would make them money.

And, as you say, DC movies have really underwhelmed. Did anyone reasonably think that the (apparently) worst one was going to draw in new subscribers?
