    I can't tell you the last time I went to our local Pizza Hut...I'm guessing I got a take out pizza there maybe 5-6 years ago

    Our local Hut was featured on the news for a bit....we had the PH employee that someone filmed licking the spoon of either a salad dressing or something else on the salad bar that went viral when she plopped in back in the container

    Elections have consequences. No sympathy. Saw an interview on PBS Newshour regarding the suspension of protected immigration status for Haitians in Springfield, OH. One interviewee was a select person or town/city councillor and she was as racist as they come. And she represents the 35% of CCOOTWH’s base and another 5%-10% of Dems and so called indies. And here we are.

    Try squaring her views with the stats thrown out in HCR’s Letter that was posted. She’d deny it, yell white victimhood and squawk about god. Good luck, ‘murikkka.

    The garishness is astounding. The tacky faux gold “leaf” everywhere, those stupid Home Depot swirly things tacked on and a row of pictures outside, including one of an autopen. The next POTUS can add a framed, soiled, adult diaper with holes in the glass so you can get a whiff as you stop to admire it. And let’s not forget the “gold” Rose Garden” because you need to be reminded that it was paved over. What a fucking clown.

    I guess that meme or gif of CCOOTWH flying overhead and dropping shit on ‘Murikkkans was apt, eh? All you one, two, three time CCOOTWH voters proud? Sure you are.

    They closed all free standing restaurants near us over 10 years ago. Now they have small outlets combined with starbucks at the local Target stores. Shame. I loved a supreme pan pizza and a soda in a red cup under a fake tiffany lamp.

    yeah, I realized after I should have been more specific. I don't actually know where they all closed. I just know that ALL of them in Winnipeg closed at the same time. So I assumed it was chain wide.

    I worked at the hut the summer after my sophomore year in high school.  Lived with my Dad that summer outside chicago.  Same summer I took the train into the city with my brother and bought 10 on cassette.  

    The pizza hut I worked at had a new jukebox...it played Cds...but only had 2.  Kris Kross and Pearl Jam.  Oh, after every shift you got to make any pizza you wanted for yourself to take home....and breadsticks. 

    What a great summer.

    I encourage everyone to read the Atlantic article linked below. It profiles 50 of the 300,000 federal employees who were purged by DOGE. If you think things are returning to normal after CCOOTWH leaves, you’re sadly mistaken. This will take generations to fix, if it ever can be fixed. Thanks CCOOTWH voters. For making China great again.

    The purge beganlate Friday night, four days after Donald Trump returned to the White House. Seventeen inspectors general—internal watchdogs embedded throughout the federal government—received emails notifying them of their termination. Three weeks later came the Valentine’s Day Massacre: the ousting of tens of thousands of federal employees with little discernible pattern, across agencies and across the country. By April, entire departments—the U.S. Agency for International Development, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau—had been gutted.

    Workers the administration couldn’t fire were coerced into leaving on their own. Toxicity became HR policy. Employees received an email with the subject line “Fork in the Road.” It offered eight months’ pay to anyone who resigned, and no assurances of job security to those who stayed. A follow-up emailencouraged them “to move from lower productivity jobs in the public sector to higher productivity jobs in the private sector.” At the end of Trump’s first year back in office, roughly 300,000 fewer Americans worked for the government.
