He's got everyone coming to his desk for the birds and the bees. Not bad.

So, conservatives are just a bunch of cowards?

Per Wikipedia:

shrinkflation, also known as the grocery shrink ray, deflation, or package downsizing, is the process of items shrinking in size or quantity, or even sometimes reformulating or reducing quality, while their prices remain the same or increase.

I can't see how furniture could ever qualify as shrinkflation, unless we're counting something like the use of crappier materials.

Can we just get some real public transportation options in the USA? I've visited Washington D.C., Boston, and New York City recently, and I'm in love with the subway (etc). Where I live would still require a car, but afaik, none of the major cities around me have anything more than a lackluster bus system.

Good acts do not make a good person. Plenty of billionaires have done good things, but they don't even come close to outweighing the bad.

They didn't win, they just didn't fail as badly some had hoped. What was accomplished was spreading out a fair portion of their user base. Maybe not a huge percentage of it, but enough that they don't have the same level of monopoly. People are more aware of other options (and Reddit's flaws), and more will depart in time.

What is "five times shorter?" Is that one fifth as long? We can't really measure the shortness of a thing, only its length.

Sorry, it's a pet peeve of mine.
