Where do you charge them?

When I was in high school, the girls' running team made shirts that said, "Fast girls have good times." It's been more than twenty years, and I still think about how funny that double-entendre is.

So, yeah, you would've sold a lot more weiners.

That's why the move is to edit all of your comments into jumbled nonsense and then delete them.

I agree that it's got to be how young Lemmy skews. No one who has ever bought alcohol at a self-checkout has said, "This is so quick and convenient!"

For the last 40 years or so, Republican voters have mostly been single-issue voters. They care very passionately about one thing, and will let almost anything else slide as a result. Being in favor of cable fees doesn't matter as long as they're anti-abortion. Being in favor of cutting social welfare programs that those very voters rely upon is fine as long as they're anti-trans.

For the most part, each voter only cares about one or two specific things, and the whole picture doesn't really matter to them.

I'd love to, but the text fades out after the first paragraph and is replaced with "This post is for members only."

That's because you're reading the chart wrong. It's showing the change in wealth for those age brackets across time.

People that were 40 in 1990 had a bigger share of the wealth than people who are 40 in 2020.
