I'm quite happy that I found a good locally-owned feed shop for chicken stuff a couple of years ago, so that I never again need to go anywhere near Tractor Supply

Current status of link:

Hmm it's working for me. But I have downloaded a copy now!

Now, to be fair, I haven't had any coffee yet (but it's giving me the 404 on my desktop too).

Yep, still there at the full url.

For me, it was linking to the abbreviated version of the URL that appears within the post's text rather then full URL, which is why it wasn't working. I believe the full URL is the one below, if you want to read it. corporate.tractorsupply.com/newsroom/new...

Loved going there (I'm quasi-rural and they have products I need). No longer. :(

The opening of grapes of wrath comes to mind.

Uh, no, you won't be seeing me in your store again. I hope this bites them in the ass.

For the folks who haven't seen it, here's what's on their website

All that's missing is some mention of "woke" and support for confederate monuments and the Ten Commandments. Otherwise, they hit all of the "owning the libs" talking points.

Having done it myself, I assure you throwing away a favorite hat is not a trivial decision.

Their press release is a useless needle-thread-attempt pile of slime, and for what? They think it's critical to appeal to the three people who are cool with animal welfare and traditional ecological conservation but not stopping climate catastrophies?

In my neck of my rural area I shop at Rural King. The Tractor Supply in Newton is so so.

Fuck them.

The day after one of our dogs passed I saw a hat in a store and immediately bought it. The hat read, "Shed Happens. Brush it off." I cried. I wore that hat so much it finally fell apart. I was really broken up. I couldn't find the hat online anywhere. Xmas that year my wife gave me a new one 1/

She'd found someone on Etsy that would custom embroider a hat and commissioned them to make it for me. I ***bawled***

A mass reaction to something is built of innumerable trivial acts.

I need to figure out a new dog food supplier for the pup.
