Please, I am begging you to even just read the Wikipedia about American Slavery before writing shit like that. Just because something was “socially acceptable” in certain circles doesn’t make it not horrible. American Slavery was an inhumane, genocidal practice that elevated slavery to unknown level of cruelty and profit.

Never thought I'd ever give money to Reddit, but I'm going to need to for your awards.

Publix has them too.

In theory I agree, but $150k really is not much in the scheme of running a school district. It could fund 1-3 positions for a year or run a program for 2ishyears (if the budget was very efficient and staffed by already hired people.) RPS is a multi million dollar system to run. Also the issues facing RPS are not only budget related. The challenges facing school districts incorporate the challenges of where they live. School is not a closed environment. If kids come from food insecure households or lack of access to shelter and stability - that will affect their learning. The issues facing RPS reflect the issues facing our city, state, and country. A one time use of $150k isn’t going to change that.

iirc they don’t do acrylics there

Also Han! But I second Carytown Nails. Also Olivia at Atelier is amazing, but I don’t think she does acrylic, just gel!

Publix on Forest Hill still had lots when I was there yesterday.

That’s fair. It’s a pretty good baseline alternative to pound cake if you ever wanna mix it up. It usually has a bit of a lemony zest to it and is great with any fruit toppings - or even just powdered sugar!

I haven't heard of that, but looking into it, probably not the best option for my family. Practically everyone is a picky eater of some sort or another, me included, so it's best to go with something simple that everyone can agree on.

Done, thanks! I've never seen a survey format like this. It was a positive experience!

Will trade leftover pie for some of that torte, if that changes the equation. Hope you get some time to do something that you enjoy.

It's interesting the people that think it doesn't really matter what the schools are named. In this age you have access to more information so that even though 50 years ago you may have gone there and you didn't know, in 2022 you do. And it matters.

Don’t forget legal and compliance shockwaves

It is a waste of money

I second this rec!

Nice, I'm hoping we'll have another product drop today. The last couple I've been at haven't been too bad but only had the dinky 375ml Eagles.

And United States of America? Yuck, I can’t live in a country named after a country that supported slavery

Owning slaves is horrible in 2022, but it wasn’t (to wealthy landowners who could) in 1860.

Just remember to buy the good olive oil, not that cheap, virgin stuff.

Also sends a message that image matters more than substance and results. Won’t keep teachers around and won’t brighten students.

Fuck confederates. All non-conscripted traitors should have been executed for treason after the war. Instead, they got to take their shitty belief systems home with them, and a few hundred years later, here we are.

This story made me sad and warmed my heart all at the same time. Enjoy!

Okay but they still were Confederates. Just because you can’t name every Nazi doesn’t mean they weren’t ones. Also, what does him maybe having been a gay man have to do with anything ?

There is never going to be a great time to spend this money but as someone pointed out earlier, it breakdowns to very little money per student. Maybe like Karmas suggested, spread out the renaming throughout the years.

idk, it seemed pretty busy when it was $1.50. maybe I was just riding during exceptionally brisk times

Take this survey for the potential expansion to West Broad/288 by December 15th!
