Trump has been touting the cost of the Walmart Thanksgiving meal bundle as proof that the economy is doing well, noting it's cheaper than last year's bundle.

But @allansmith.bsky.social compared the two, and there's a catch: There's also less food in it.

Trump touts cost of Walmart's Thanksgiving meal to vindicate his policies — ignoring a key detail
Since Tuesday's elections, Trump has repeatedly boasted that Walmart's Thanksgiving meal bundle is cheaper than it was under President Joe Biden. But there's also less food in it.

Huh
Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Soup season. First batch of the lemon chicken rice soup is on the stove. Except it’s lemon turkey rice this time, as we had a turkey (yes, an entire turkey) from last year Jenne cooked over the weekend.

Jenne bought some food pantry supplies for drop off tomorrow. I went and bought more stuff today. I still feel completely helpless about the state of things.

Doing 6 1/2 to 7 acres an hour pulling a chisel plow. This feels very boring and slow although it’s not much slower than when we combine the field. There’s more going on when you combine so it’s more exciting.

110 acres of corn left to harvest, but all of our farm storage is full and the one truck driver we have is busy hauling other corn. The other trucker who told me he could ‘work us in’ has ghosted me for the 2nd time. So I’m in this machine today doing some fall tillage.

Oh.
Almost 80% of S&P 500 stocks declined today, which is the worst day of market breadth ever recorded, while the $SPX was making new all-time highs 🚨🚨

My brother came up today to run the grain cart. I combined, mom and dad hauled. Finished the big field we started on Saturday. Record yield for that farm. Had a seed salesman in the combine with me in the morning. Felt like a Big Time Operator. 🤣

"The president’s statement announcing the relief funding emphasized the number of times he won Missouri’s electoral votes, as if there were some kind of connection between his political support in the state and his eagerness to provide disaster aid..."

Trump approves disaster declarations for red states, as blue states go without
“President Trump and his administration have politicized disaster relief,” one governor said, “and our communities are the ones who will pay the price.”

It really annoys me that our new Massey 8S has its climate controls in the touchscreen computer. C’mon engineers, this sucks.

It’s weird farming in a very urbanized area where farming is barely a thing and then driving 20 miles west to home out in farm country where everyone works until midnight and grain semis drive by my house at all hours. But I don’t mind being home by 6pm 😆

4 new job openings for sales agronomists at my old company. Still trying to dig themselves out of the hole they made over the last couple of years, as they caused most of their experienced agronomists to leave. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Including me. I miss my paycheck, not sure I miss the company.

So the large straight truck from 1970-something we use to haul grain is dying. Dad thinks he needs to spend $50k to buy another used straight truck to haul grain from field to farm for six weeks out of the year.

I am up to 7 or 8 free biscuit sandwiches received from McDonald’s monopoly free entries, now. And a pile of free fries I’ll never use.

Auger up to the corn bin means I’m on top of the bin.

The ‘no purchase necessary’ site for getting McDonalds Monopoly game codes is apparently going to keep me in biscuit breakfast sandwichs for the next month. Excellent.
