Didn’t take companies long to stop pretending like they care. We are fucked.

    I appreciate companies openly sharing their ‘values’ so i know where not to spend my $$.

      I’m legitimately upset about this one. It’s one of the first “company does something bullshit” that’s actually been actionable for me… and the first that was something I’d done a lot of work to find the “best place” for.

      I get compressed wood pellets (sold for horse bedding or pellet stove fuel) there to use as very cheap compostable cat litter, 40lbs is $6, and if you have a good system one bag will fill 4 cat boxes about 4-6 times, so really cost effective and environmentally friendly. It’s like feline pine but not ridiculous expensive.

      Next best option is almost twice the price… which is still ok, but man it still hurts…

      How did THEY fall for the outrage of people claiming they won’t buy any more tractors from TSco? Am pretty sure THEY know they don’t sell tractors and those teets are from liars… I guess the sniveling cowards know their base and pander, as usual.

        It’s a publicly traded company. Investors hate risk, especially short term risk, no matter how unlikely. The board answers to investors. It’s a byproduct of “growth every quarter, above all else,” AKA late stage hypercapitalism
