@bloretta561@MarshaBlackburn You know what's funny? At the local supermarket, the ORGANIC brand of canned ravioli is cheaper than Chef Boyardee, and the ORGANIC canned ring noodles than Spaghetti-O's. Usually those have been significantly more expensive even though they were no-name brands.
@ThunderHeadFan Actually, the first letter of "SSI" stands for "Supplemental" (it's a common mistake). The funds for SSI come from a different source.
As those who get SSI tend to be those who haven't worked long enough to qualify for SSD, we tend to be put on the chopping block first.
@BlackKnight10k Pretty much. I knew someone who used to always rage about "The J'ewwwwws", drawn out like that. A lot of stereotypes about Jewish people take some detail that was true of one particular group of them at one time out of a necessity and extrapolates it to all of them at all times.
@Surisskeptic YouTube can be about f'n chumps sometimes, but there's no viable alternative. Not even for someone, like me, who could actually host my own damn infrastructure if I wanted to.
@BonBonBerry15 I'm a bit of a coder, but I think implementing the likes of Twitter might be slightly out of my wheelhouse. Swiping Mastodon code, maybe more within the realm of possibility...
