“How can we prevent hotels from gouging customers with undisclosed prices?” California: Let’s make them all post their room rates! California hotels: can it just be a maximum price that we can then offer discounts on top of? California: sounds good! California hotels:
United Airlines is absurd. They charge extra money to carry on luggage. Why can't they include 1 carry on and 1 personal item like every other airline?

I’m voting/hoping for @MachelMontano as Sebastin in The Little Mermaid!

Exactly. What scares me too is a lot of product who claim to be big on product but thought this was “out of scope” or an overreaction. https://twitter.com/s_m_i/status/1146546903275806720

I looked into the new FDA warning about grain-free dog food and I regret to report we appear to have done a wellness to the dogs for no reason, which might now be hurting...
