12 bottles a year??? Lmfao exactly how much laundry you got? Assume a family of 4 does 3 loads a week (12 a month). A bottle of Snuggle fabric softener ($8) has roughly 112 rinse loads.
That's 112 rinse loads /12 wash loads a month = 9.3 months
2 bottles max a year at a whopping $16.
$16 x 50 years= $800
Dude, these people are being disappeared. That means they're gone. Good luck ever seeing them again. Even as a white guy, you would suffer untold horrors we can't comprehend.
Anecdotally, I was a wild youngin decades ago and went to county jail for two weeks. Even jail was horrible, and they treat you like you're subhuman. It's freezing all the time, the showers are kept purposely boiling hot, and the food is inedible as it's pure sugar garbage. The loser guards finally have a leg up on other people and make sure they get their payback for their shitty lives. You poop and pee in public. As a woman, they literally limited the pads you could use, so I just bled through.
Now imagine you remove all those luxuries I just complained about, and you've got this type of prison.
I'm so grateful my daughter hated Indiana her entire life and fled to Illinois immediately after undergrad. Two of my grandchildren are there with her, and I have one here. I'll be ensuring his parents read to him because I know I will. And I'll campaign to his other grandparents and aunts. I refuse to let that boy get fucked over because this country is full of stupid misogynistic, racists cunts.
If it's minority, then I'm right next to you and will gladly stay mad at the 40% that gave fuck all about this election. I fucking hate each one of them. I've never hated abstract people before, but in my 54 years, I've never been utterly ashamed and sad to be an American.
Saw a black one drive past my house yesterday. Sadly, it appeared un-scorched.
This is beyond dumb. You don't measure an Excel file in pages. It's not a fucking novel.
Well played, Canada!
Decades ago, in undergrad, I wrote a paper on recessions and the effects on everyday items. Oddly enough, the less money people have, the more likely that they will spend a tiny amount on luxury goods like chocolates. You add up all those people who buy small boxes of chocolates when they normally wouldn't, and you've got your uptick in sales.
