A home to friendly weirdos. The Grey Gardens of the Fediverse (but beige). Occasionally graphically cacographic. Definitely probably not a cult (though you'll never be 100% sure). Beige-bless 🙏

I guess that’s why we need actual data collection and economists to do the analysis to know what impact the GST holiday is having.

Casual observation by journalists doesn’t reach reproducible inferences. Who would have thought.
