The Walmart in my town installed the new electronic shelf labels this year. If you work at Walmart or shop there regularly, do you know any details about how the company is using them? I'm wondering if prices get lowered on certain things at certain times.

Let's all learn not to be bothered by this. Accidentally using the wrong one from a pair of homophones does matter if you are writing for school or for professional publication, but it doesn't matter if you are casually posting on social media. Social media is supposed to be the equivalent of real-life spoken conversations, where small mistakes and informal language are totally okay.

does it bother you when people write "simple" things wrong? for example then/than, your/you're, carpal tunnel as carpel tunnel (i don't know why this one is so common)

To be really clear: The reason members of Congress can't just walk right in is because of the guns. Armed DHS personnel won't allow entry. In other words, DHS is using armed force to *break* laws.

Democrats need to wrap their minds around that. Accept that the frog is boiled.

somewhere out there right now is a kid with curly hair being raised by people who have wavy hair at best and those people are giving them 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner and telling them to dry brush it. and that kid is gonna spend all of middle school and high school hating their hair and moping over the flat iron. they're being told right now that if they don't dry-brush their curl pattern into oblivion every morning it means they're unkempt and gross even though they naturally have the kind of ringlets that a thousand bridezillas would commit horrible murders for every june. it's happening right now it's an absolute epidemic and a tragedy every time
