Populism Updates @PopulismUpdates Tell me your most radical position that cannot be placed on the left-right political spectrum
Admiral Snaccbar @Chris Mench Serving shrimp with the tail still on when it’s already mixed into something (pasta, rice, etc) is insane.
Yeah, I’m 30 and I feel like I’ve never had the experience of being able to rely on a name brand consistently. Everything seems to fall apart. Sometimes you get something great, but when it comes time to replace it and you buy the exact same thing from the exact same company it comes at a much lower quality
Ironically, it was about 30 years ago that brand names started really leaning into shrinkflation, and enshitification, riding off the merits of their previously good name.
Its so fricking hard to find the trustworthy brands.
I’m honestly just so willing to not have any brand loyalty and to suffer with making a bad pick that I have to return or fix myself, I constantly having to re-find what is considered actually good quality.
The answer is a lot of name brand in the higher price range but not so high that it’s just for padding a contractor’s quote and percent take home is still good quality. And you can never go for the same model twice if the company is doing constant refreshes cause those are with cheaper components every time. (Allowance for first refresh fixing a flaw)
