Major league option: the ball has to be hit into play to count. The pitcher will be the most recent World Series-winning pitcher. If you choose the Tyson option and fail, your medical bills will be covered (funeral expenses included if necessary).

$100 million in 4 months to the new CEO... Wow!

And just fired a bunch of people (1100)... which helps pay for that package and prop up the stock price. Maybe that was relevant to improve efficiency, but the pay package is insane.

I don't like their products and only spend gift cards I get for free. It's overly sweet junk and generally, the coffee is not good. I buy at specialty local shops or make my own.

Put your $ where you wish... I don't support this kind of American corporate greed and stupidity. Fire the board, pull back their stock options.

We all are aware of laws we dislike. How do you deal with these if they affect you in some way?

Thought this take on Harris's loss was pretty accurate.

"I’m sorry but misogyny is a cop-out answer here. Kamala made a lot of mistakes during her campaign, and the Democratic Party really needs to start taking accountability if they ever want to win again.

First biggest issue: not having a proper democratic primary. Kamala was wildly unpopular in the 2020 primary, to select her as Biden’s VP wasn’t the best idea, and then certainly wasn’t the best candidate to represent the Democratic Party in this election.

Double-downing on Biden’s presidency, which people are already upset about, was a mistake. It made people think she wasn’t going to fix anything.

Not taking a firm stance on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza alienated a lot of voters who are pro-Palestine.

Operating her entire campaign on “I’m not Trump and he will destroy us” instead of running her campaign on hope for the future was a mistake.

Not focusing her campaign on economic policy when millions of Americans are struggling financially was a mistake.

Then a clown like Trump swoops in and starts saying things like “I will make life better for you. I will make America great again” and then suddenly that starts to sound more appealing. Focusing on attacking the other side instead of making your side sound better just doesn’t work. You have to inspire people to vote for you, not tell them why you shouldn’t vote for the other side.

Obama was excellent at inspiring voters to vote for him. He gave them hope of a better future. Kamala should’ve taken notes."

Seen someone comment "Looks aren't important" and thought it would be interesting to get everyone's opinion. I personally think this statement is ridiculous as from a biological standpoint, physical attraction is important, more so for men then woman but still important. Don't get mad at us men for physical attraction being more important to us men then women (still important for women), this is due to basic biology that dates back thousands of years and is still with us today. Through out human history, woman have been more forgiving in the looks department than men in exchange for being a good provider.
