How proving effectiveness is helping one retailer to defend media budgets - To improve the effectiveness of its campaigns, Delhaize leans on market mix modelling (MMM) and attribution tools (Source: MarketringWeek)

Delhaize is Belgium’s second-largest food retailer (Source: Delhaize) Think marketing is tough in the UK? Belgian retailer Delhaize, like all its compatriots, must legally factor in inflation-linked pay rises, putting extra strain on marketing budgets already under threat. Belgium might not seem the obvious place to look for evidence that marketing effectiveness is more important than ever, but…

Steun aan de werknemers van de groep Delhaize

Tijdens de zitting van maandag 17 april 2023 stemde de Koekelbergse gemeenteraad een motie tot steun aan de werknemers van de groep Delhaize (die zijn wortels heeft in de gemeente). VOORUIT staat volledig achter deze motie, raadslid Dirk Lagast verduidelijkt waarom. Het is duidelijk dat de beslissing van de groep Delhaize kadert in een strategie die niets te maken heeft met het economisch…

[tea-with-evan-and-me]

(I have no idea what the text limit is on these things. I hope this edges all of you, you funny horny crazy wonderful douchebags <3 I love you all. Thank u for being here <3 ~ Belgianon)

The metro was absolutely packed. Normally, Evan would end up feeling claustrophobic and Amelia would get irritated with the expat lack of personal boundaries. This time, Amelia used the chance to press her back against Evan’s front, holding onto the dangling handles and bracing her core so she was solid. Evan responded in kind, pulling her hips back against his, using her for balance… and to hide the awful tightness that had grown in his jeans, a tightness he was trying desperately not to think about as the metro train rocked. Amelia couldn’t help but chuckle when he fell a little, whining against her neck.

Thank god most of the other passengers around them had headphones in… because gods, the noises he made…

At their stop, it was Amelia’s turn to drag them both from the metro train and up an endlessly long flight of stairs, straight out into the much more relaxed Merode area. Practically running down the hill towards Amelia’s apartment (tucked away down a gorgeous side street), Evan tried thinking of everything he could to keep his cool.

He was not going to waste this first time. It had been fucking brewing up long enough, the tension between them both unchecked by paps chasing them around, or angry antsy fans who thought they had a chance with either of them… he wasn’t going to waste it by coming in his pants halfway to her place.

Kate Winslet hacking up phlegm that one time on set when she had the end of a cold…

That did it.

They reached Amelia’s apartment building, and she buzzed them in. And then, she stopped to check her fucking post!!!

“Ames… please… the mail can wait…”

“Hmm… can ‘the male’ wait?” she asked, leafing through the three letters she’d received: a Delhaize coupon card, a letter from her health insurance, and a junk mail. Evan turned her around and slammed her against the wall, pinning her wrist holding the mail down too.

“No,” he growled, his brown eyes so dark as they bored into hers. “The male can’t fucking wait.” Amelia couldn’t stop the little whimper that came from her lips. Evan attacked her throat. “And if I have to wait longer…” he murmured, between kisses that sent heat both skyrocketing to Amelia’s face, and straight down to her cunt. “I’ll make sure you can’t fucking walk tomorrow…”

“Hmm,” Amelia breathed. “Then maybe I should grab some milk before we head inside…”

Evan snapped. He threw the post back into the letterbox and took the keys from her hand. With a gorgeous amount of strength and dexterity, he picked Amelia up and carried her fireman-style into the lobby, unlocking the door. Amelia couldn’t stop laughing as he hauled her ass into the tiny elevator and pressed for her floor, his thumb tracing circles right on the growing wet patch on her jeans.

“And you wanted to go and get milk,” he murmured, pressing the wet spot. Amelia cried out. “For shame…”

“You said you’d make sure I couldn’t walk tomorrow!” Amelia breathed as Evan stepped out of the lift and let them both into her apartment.

“That’s still on the table.”

Door closed.

“Is it a promise?”

Evan dropped her, pinning her against the wall with his hips.

“Fuck,” he breathed.

“Because I just want you to know that it’s disgustingly unfair of you to promise me that… and then not make good on it…” Amelia looped her arms around his neck.

“You’re fucking gorgeous when you’re being all shy and sexy…”

“Oh, I’m wildly aware you’re going to fuck a tomato.”

“Eh… beet…”

“Is that another promise?”

Evan attacked Amelia’s mouth. In truth, he’d thought her shy and contained, maybe a little bit into him… not this! Not stepping over clear boundaries she’d put in place over the years that had kept her away from the world of relationships and sex. She’d had her own traumas, just like he had. But there she was, putting it all on the line for him. Beet-coloured cheeks be damned.

It didn’t take too long for that embarrassment to melt away under Evan’s touch as he pulled her clothes from her, leaving her in her underwear. And that wet patch that had been in her jeans had soaked entirely through the lace front of her panties.

“You haven’t left me much to do here,” Evan murmured, sliding a finger behind the lace and stroking her softly.

“Fuck!” Amelia cried out, her head hitting the wall. Evan chuckled, the sound a growl in his chest.

“Pity… I was hoping to show you how well I speak French.” His finger still circled her clit, making her legs tremble. Before she could warn him not to, since she was so close, he slid two fingers into her, and she came hard on them, biting the soft fabric of his t-shirt. “Look at you,” he murmured, stroking her hair. He still held her up. “What a little mess you are…”

“Is that the best you’ve got?” Amelia breathed, looking up at him. She was glowing, but this time, not from being cherry red. Her own eyes matched his.

“Oh, darling… you’ve no fucking clue.”

Evan picked her up again, carrying her through to the bedroom. He threw her onto the bed and stripped his own shirt off, revealing muscles he’d been working on purely because Amelia had him boxing. Lean, healthy muscle. Amelia’s eyes roamed over him, and she bit her lip. But Evan didn’t give her much time to look. He dropped his jeans and boxers and crawled over her, stealing her mouth again, covering her body with his. It was intimate, sensual almost… and after the assault with his fingers had left her a little raw, it felt almost overwhelming. Evan, too, felt something he’d never actually felt before. He didn’t know what it was, but he didn’t think about much else as Amelia reached down with a trembling hand and started to stroke him gently, making him bite down lightly on her shoulder.

Evan grabbed her leg and pulled it around his waist. He almost lost himself immediately as he pushed into her smoothly – since she was already dripping like a waterfall for him, no resistance at all. Sure, half the fun was warming her up, but that had happened on the metro. Amelia held his face, kissing him softly.

“I know I said what I s-said,” she whispered. “But be gentle?” Evan rolled his hips a little, catching her in all the right spots. Amelia’s eyes rolled back, and she arched her back as much as she could against him.

“Sure about that?” he purred, nipping her jaw. He didn’t wait for her reply. He slammed his hips into hers, reaching some delicious spot inside her that made her clench around him. “Fuuuuuck, Amelia!” he cried out. “Fuck fuck fuck fuck FUCK!” He watched as Amelia took his hand, feeling his balls tighten just a fraction more as she slid that hand around her throat, a desperate glint in her eyes. Evan ran his thumb along the protruding artery in her throat, his thrusts becoming a little sloppier as he squeezed her throat lightly, then a little more when she grinned.

“Yes!” Amelia cried, tangling her fingers into his curls. Evan couldn’t hold it anymore. With the absolute messiest of thrusts that barely did anything, his body snapped, and he filled her, pushing his face into the pillow beside her head.

“Fuuuuck,” he yelled, voice muffled by the pillow.

“Ev-an, move,” Amelia breathed. “P-please, baby…”  Evan lifted his head, the bravado from earlier gone as he ground his hips against hers as much as he could. “Fingers- “

“No,” Evan murmured, kissing her softly. “My dick, or nothing…” Amelia clung to him, eyes huge. “C-come on, baby… come for me, darling…” a little nip on her throat, a squeeze of her ass, and a final, single roll of his hips against hers, and Amelia let out a long cry into his chest, gripping him. It was almost enough to make him come again, but he was already spent.

“Fuck you,” Amelia breathed, eyes closed. “That was amazing…”

“It’s a shame you guys don’t have Gatorade here,” he murmured, stroking her hair. “I can go for days on that stuff…”

“Eh… I might need a few minutes…”

you icon, you’re right on time!! 🙏🏼

7 février

ras le cul ras le cul ras le cul je viens de regarder un documentaire sur pomme et un documentaire sur november ultra et j'en ai marre de rien faire de ma vie. aujourd'hui c'était l'anniversaire de r. oui encore il est là oui j'aurais tant aimé oublier que c'était son anniversaire mais mon cerveau me l'a rappelé toute la journée alors évidemment j'ai passé l'après-midi à m'entrainer à chanter you still believe in me des beach boys au piano en remplaçant toutes les paroles par joyeux anniversaire parce que c'est ma spécialité de faire des cadeaux d'anniversaire adorables aux gens qui m'aiment pas cf. mon zine pour a. avec des dessins aux crayons de couleur de son chien qui fait un road trip à travers les états-unis. l'année d'après je lui ai fait une playlist, et l'année dernière elle m'a même pas répondu, alors cette année je me suis rabattue sur r. je me suis enregistrée mille fois et j'ai fini par lui envoyer la moins nulle, en voice memo pas en vidéo parce que je me sentais moche. il a répondu merciii et c'est tout. ça m'apprendra à écouter mon gros coeur de merde. enfin non ça m'appendra pas puisqu'année après année je recommence. en ouvrant fb j'ai vu que c'était l'anniversaire de ludvig aujourd'hui aussi. évidemment qu'ils sont nés le même jour. je suis sûre qu'il aurait eu un petit mot sympa pour ma chanson lui.

8 février

j'ai rêvé qu'on me disait que je devrais faire du cinéma parce que ce que j'avais à dire et ma sensibilité se prêtaient bien à l'image, à ce médium-là, un truc comme ça. j'essaie de faire une vidéo pour le festival videoex mais je sais pas ce que j'ai à dire. en revenant de delhaize sous la pluie je me disais que j'aimerais bien travailler sur quelque chose qui me sorte de moi-même. ça me ferait du bien.

quand m. est arrivée elle m'a demandé ça boume ça gaze? et j'ai dit non et toi? et elle m'a répondu un petit ça va. elle m'a pas demandé pourquoi ça allait pas mais rien que de dire non ça m'a fait du bien. de le poser devant moi. on a passé l'après-midi à discuter dans la cuisine en se faisant écouter des nouveaux morceaux et je sais pas comment je survivrais sans voir m. de temps à autre. elle m'a ramené une pierre transparente de sel cristallisé qu'elle a trouvée dans le désert en espagne, elle date de quand y avait la mer dans le désert, ça me fascine. j'arrêtais pas de la tripoter dans tous les sens. elle a un endroit qui est tout lisse comme du verre et sur la tranche on voit plein de petites strates comme des grands escaliers en cristal. je l'ai laissée en bas sur l'évier mais j'ai envie de l'avoir près de moi pour dormir. le jour où j'aurai une table de nuit c'est le premier truc que je mettrai dessus.

cécile et gauthier sont arrivés un peu plus tard, ils ont ramené des gobelets en plastique que jeanne avait fait faire pour les trente ans de thibaud avec son nom, 30 ans et autour du 30 plein de petits objets qui le caractérisent: des baskets de sport, un chat, des billets de banque, une bouteille de vin, un ballon de foot, des cartes de poker, et plein d'autres trucs nuls. elle lui avait organisé un weekend surprise dans une grande maison à la campagne avec tous leurs amis. j'ai un peu de mal à concevoir qu'y a des gens pour qui les anniversaires sont synonyme de joie et de fête et de surprises et de bons souvenirs. bon mes trente ans étaient loin d'être mon anniversaire le plus pourri, mais quand je compare avec les gens qui ont des vraies vies avec des amis et des copains et des copines qui leur font des surprises, je me dis que je suis pas au même niveau. et la seule raison pour laquelle j'étais pas déprimée pour mes trente ans c'était que j'étais amoureuse de a. et qu'elle m'avait dit qu'elle m'enverrait un cadeau. qu'elle n'a jamais envoyé, ou il est jamais arrivé, le mystère demeure, j'ai jamais osé lui demander.

quand je suis arrivée à la maison trempée jusqu'aux os en revenant de delhaize j'avais deux messages de r. qui me disait qu'il avait enfin écouté ma chanson et que c'était trop mimi avec beaucoup de i. comment font les gens pour avoir des vies si occupées? et pourquoi moi je suis si peu occupée que j'ai le temps de passer une après-midi entière à répéter you still believe in me au piano pour un garçon que j'ai vu deux fois dans ma vie? bon je l'ai pas apprise pour lui, j'étais déjà en train de la jouer, mais quand même. je savais pas si y avait quelqu'un dans la maison d'à côté et je m'imaginais la voisine à bout de nerfs à force de m'entendre chanter joyeux anniversaire qui se disait j'espère qu'il va l'apprécier sa putain de chanson des beach boys. désolée madame mais il l'a même pas écoutée le jour-même, non mais vous y croyez?

10 février

j'ai enfin bu un jus d'ananas ce soir dans le cadre d'une piña colada sans alcool parce que j'en ai marre d'avoir la tête qui tourne. je suis contente qu'ils soient tous là pour me distraire. ce matin je me suis levée d'une humeur exécrable et j'ai cherché un morceau d'arnold schönberg avec le mot flowers dans le titre parce que dans mon rêve c'était marqué sur mon ordonnance: flowers d'arnold schönberg, mais apparemment ce morceau n'existe pas. peut être que c'était juste des fleurs de bach. j'ai du me mettre devant un épisode de newport beach avec une grosse tranche de brioche tartinée de chocolat pour faire remonter mon moral (ç'a marché) et puis on est partis au resto dans la forêt où j'étais pas retournée depuis que j'étais petite et j'ai mangé une grosse escalope viennoise avec des frites (bof) et une glace vanille-fraise en dessert pour faire les choses jusqu'au bout. j'arrête pas de manger des beignets de carnaval aussi, j'arrête pas de dire que je vais prendre mon corps en main mais je le fais pas.

cashier needed help from a particular store attendant so I helped her get attention (because her microphone didn't work) and then the little loopband (idk the english work I'm sorr) got stuck in a corner and I helped her out and she was very thankfull

maybe going outside is also about helping people

Encore une grosse journée de zinzin. Garage à 1h pour l'injecteur de la bagnole, en tout cas j'imaginais que c'était une heure. A midi je mets mon téléphone à charger pour découvrir que le garage m'a appelé 4 fois. J'avais rendez-vous au matin. Bon grosse panique tout de suite, tellement grosse panique que madame a cru que qqch était arrivé aux enfants en voyant ma tronche au téléphone.

Bon ils ont pu me prendre, mais les réparations ont duré quatre heures. Le temps de marcher le long du Ravel (pistes cyclables / piétonnes créées sur d'anciennes voies de chemin de fer) pour aller 3 bleds plus loin au Delhaize dans lequel on va parfois faire un tour.

8 bornes aller. Ok. Cool. J'ai mon appareil mais après trois fleurs et 2 papillons j'en ai ras-le-cul. Le Ravel en fait c'est chiant déjà en vélo, alors à pied...

Je trouve un bâton et ca y est j'ai quinze ans, ou pas. J'oscille entre décapiter les orties comme un seigneur sith et penser à mon 5e dan de kendo pour lequel je dois me bouger le cul.

Le vent est avec moi. Il me porte, il joue dans le feuillage des arbres et crée une barrière avec le monde des soucis, rendant mes rêveries si douces et faciles à émerger.

A mi-chemin, je tombe sur des mûres tardives, des noisettes et des noix en avance. Petit festin frugal, d'autant plus que je n'avais aucune provisions (c'est d'ailleurs pour cela que j'allais au Delhaize). J'ai toujours 15 ans ou 18. Je me rappelle jouer au commando avec des potes, camping sauvage avec répliques d'airsoft etc. On ne pourrait plus faire ça, ce serait pour se faire descendre.

J'arrive au Delhaize, un smoothie, un petit pain à l'ail, un pot de crudités on-the-go, un bounty, un monster juiced (Mango Loco) et machine arrière. Tout juste le temps d'arriver à l'heure convenue pour la bagnole.

Je dois tout de même forcer le pas. Vu que j'ai les pieds creux, et que j'ai tendance à marcher sur la tranche des pieds, la marche peut vite ne pas m'aller si je n'ai pas les bonnes grolles. Ce n'était pas le cas évidemment. Le dernier kilomètre m'a bien tiré dans les chevilles et les mollets. Vingt-quatre-mille pas plus tard, j'arrive au garage.

Là je suis rentré (sans penser à m'étirer) et j'ai le pied gauche qui tire la gueule à cause des chaussures. En fait, je n'ai manifestement plus 15 ans.

[cparti-mkiki]

just took the last two pains au chocolat at delhaize and almost depleted the croissants and felt like a monster but like, thinking the whole time, well, gotta eat right, i'm doing nothing wrong etc and then i get home and my dad had ALSO had the idea of getting viennoiseries for the family so now we have two full bags at home and have left another family starving and in the street

“The CEOs of Albertsons' (NYSE:ACI) and Kroger's (NYSE:KR) penned an op-ed in the Cincinnati Inquirer Thursday to disabuse stakeholders of what they described as "myths" surrounding the planned merger of their two companies.

The op-ed seemed to us a public relations faux pas because it begged inquiry into the companies' prior performance with regard to the purported "myths" the CEO authors were trying to dispel. Simply put, the CEOs may have shot themselves in the foot with stakeholders, the markets, and the Federal Trade Commission.

(…)

Additionally, some have speculated that the merged entity may have to divest of as many as 650 stores, as reported by SA's Joshua Fineman. That would substantially alter the economics of the deal, which would alter additional aspects of the deal from what was promised (as discussed further below.)

(…)

This "myth" seems far more likely to come to fruition. Joshua Fineman's article about the merger notes that the likely buyers of any of the stores that are to be divested will be acquired by Amazon (Whole Foods), Dutch grocery chain Ahold Delhaize (Food Lion, Giant, Fresh Direct). , Dollar General and others. Amazon, of course, is reportedly well-known to oppose efforts to organize its stores, as is Dollar General. Ahold Delhaize stores are mostly union.

Additionally, while the CEO's op-ed boasts about the wages their companies pay their workers, it says nothing of their hours. Employee blogs have multiple instances of workers saying their hours have been cut.

So, while not necessary "losing" their jobs, Albertsons/Kroger workers have legitimate concerns about their weekly wages. A survey of 36,000 workers at Kroger brands in four states by The Economic Roundtable and Occidental College found 78% of the workers report they are food insecure. They run out of food before the end of the month, skip meals and are hungry sometimes. Forty-four percent reported they are re unable to pay for rent and 14% are homeless now or in the past year.

(…)

The Cincinnati Inquirer op-ed was, in our view, a desperate attempt to spin an increasingly negative view of the merger. It failed by bringing greater scrutiny to precisely the issues that opponents of the merger have raised.

Prominent Democrats with large, national, activist, followings, including one-time presidential contenders Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders, as well as Amy Klobuchar, the chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee's antitrust subcommittee, have all voiced their concerns, if not their opposition, to the merger.

Less than 20 months out from an election, including one where both Warren and Klobuchar will stand for re-election, will make any merger highly unlikely. While we once favorably - even enthusiastically- viewed merger, we reconsidered in January. We believe, now, that the merger is hopelessly entangled in regulatory issues.

Moreover, we believe the pace of sales -- and the percentage stakes -- being sold by Kroger and Albertsons senior and middle-tier officers in March and April, mostly over 10%, indicate that they have little faith the merger will proceed, either.

(…)

In this political and social environment, we're confident the merger as contemplated is not going anywhere.”
