#Unilever Plc will keep making #Cornetto and Carte D’Or in #Russia even after shedding its global ice cream unit.
Companies like Unilever condemned Russia’s invasion but finding buyers for the assets of “unfriendly countries” is challenging and incurs a large exit tax. #Mondelez, #Nestle and #Procter & #Gamble are among the Western multinationals that have maintained large operations in Russia.
Crazy fool that I am, I've put my washing out on the line. Taking bets on whether I remember it's there before it starts raining 😬🤣
Edit: It did start raining about an hour later.
It then got sunny again, and is now dry. I win! #life#washing#gamble
There's nothing more obviously profiteering to me than #Casinos, #SportsBetting, and #Ads for sports betting at casinos.
Come #Gamble ie algorithmically lose to the house for entertainment! We'll make millions and you'll get to dream of being rich. At least paying for a movie or a book about someone becoming super rich would provide more world building, if not delusions, as to a reality where you are one of the forever elusive "wealthy enough".
The future is a casino planet where most people do not own anything, they spend their life selling their time and attention for access to the things they need to live packaged as cheap entertainment.
It is a curse that robber barons steal our time and attention and literally our lives from us. We are a populace crippled by #capitalism of its potential.
