After some Costco shareholders asked the company to end its DEI policies, this was their response: “Our board has considered this proposal and believes that our commitment to an enterprise rooted in respect and inclusion is appropriate and necessary."
This explains why Costco is an industry leader!

I’ve never - in my whole life - seen anything like the season two finale of Shrinking. I’m shaking and crying and so moved that I can hardly breathe. What an amazing, beautiful, and impactful show.

Is there a name for the mood I call the "NO" mood?
The mood in which, no matter what is suggested as a solution to an issue, you are gonna find a reason why it won't work.
The mood where you really just do NOT want a solution only someone to keep the tab open for your bitching?
