That meme is a bit of a spoiler yo. The episode hasn’t been out THAT long
Kimiko talking is more than just “a bit” of a spoiler, imo. That’s some heavy implications for everyone who’s aware of the show.
Whoa what the fuck?? I had no idea this picture depicted speaking until your comment man damn
I mean…life is an absurdist play at this point. It’s not even a tv show or a movie. It’s a play. That would explain the presidential assasination attempt we’ve seen recently. The bit works in 3 acts. The first 2 are failed attempts, and the 3rd one is in the final act. But I haven’t seen this one yet. Don’t tell me how it ends! Spoilers!!!
Did I miss something? Did Biden step out of the race?
Relevant Trump wants a refund
LOL This is an insult to Kimiko and this pivotal moment for her character.
I have a hard time feeling bad for anyone that loses money while trying to make money selling merch for politicians.
Viewing campaigning as an opportunity to profit through business is hella late stage capitalism in the worst way.
I dunno, I suddenly have an urge to sell shirts to maga idiots that read “I liked him before he was a convicted felon.” I won’t but I think it’d be funny.
I’ve considered the same.
Website with America flags and eagles everywhere, spouting Trump, veterans, freedoms and religion. Something about 10% of profits to Trump campaign.
Customer is always right, Im just selling what they want - visibility, Trump and lies.
I could shit in a paper bag, slap a flag sticker on it, call it Freedom Feces or Patriot Poop or trump dump and those morons would buy 4.
Just think of how sports memorbilia shops must feel. There’s 32 teams in the MLB. Any one of them could be in the world series…well…ok, maybe not ANY of them. I don’t exactly see the Pirates doing much more then showing up, playing subpar baseball, and crying every night on the bus ride home.
My point is, it’s very hard to accurately predict which team gets in, and even harder to predict which team will win once it starts.
So these companies make BOTH versions of the “World Series winner” merchandise. And then half of it never sees the light of day. Year after year. Which means somewhere, out there in the world, may still exist T-Shirts for me to wear, for the 1995, 1997, and 2016 World Series winners…The Cleveland Indians!!!
I mean, I’ll get crazy looks for wearing them, and people will constantly be like “Uhhhh…we didn’t win…” and I will proceed to not give a shit, because those would be some cool unique shirts to wear!
But as it stands, those guys take an innitial 50% loss on the first batch of merch, just so they have it ready to sell the second the game ends. EVERY year.
I read that they send the loser-winner shirts to poor countries. So you go to some random village and it looks like alternate reality sports land. Except no one there probably even follows the teams/leagues on their shirts.

Well, they don’t really take a loss. The expense of both uniforms are baked into the price of the winning team. it’s just part of the overhead. Most the shirts get sent and sold to places that probably only vaguely know who 'the patriots" are.
As a Cleveland fan we can dream, we can dream. Also in the same line the Bills are 3 time Super Bowl champs
…I mean, if we’re creating false timelines, how about one where Art Modell wasn’t a piece of shit, and the BROWNS are 5X superbowl champions…and the Ravens never existed.
And the Monsters never changed their name…
I mean, I’ll get crazy looks for wearing them, and people will constantly be like “Uhhhh…we didn’t win…” and I will proceed to not give a shit, because those would be some cool unique shirts to wear!
My excuse is “I’m from a different timeline where we won the championship”.
“And Gore won the presidency. Heard advanced warnings of 9/11 (bush ignored these warnings), prevented 9/11, and took steps to reverse global warming. I got cocky, and thought maybe the other timelines were better than the official timeline I came from…and I see you guys elected donald trump??? As an overreaction from having the mildest president of black guys in office??? In my timeline we don’t even wear pants! I mean, unless it’s winter…but year, Ricks out, Dicks out! Oh, every male in my timeline is named Rick. Because they have a dick. And every female has the last name Micucci. No one knows why…”
I used to work in merchandising, and it doesn’t exactly work this way. To some extent it does, but there’s a lot more nuance.
When a printing shop gets a contract to do team merch for playoffs, they will be given ALL the possible art, all the possible colors for blank shirts to print on, and a scheduled scenario. For example, after game 2 if the series is tied 1-1, don’t print. If after game 2 the series is 2-0, print 25% of orders for winning team, etc.
The actual margins for the printers isn’t very high. So these types of contracts are necessary. It’s not easy to pack a building of screen printers at short notice to print, and often they end up having to print off hours or weekends.
This isn’t to say some loser shirts are printed. Many are. You may get that Indians shirt someday. It’s kinda a crazy world.
“first time?”
