That’s not the case in my area.

My spouse. But that’s it.

I spent $150 on our microwave within the past few years in the U.S., however it was name brand and a special miniature model that would leave us with more counter space. If you buy a no name brand you can still get one for under $100, but that also means ordering from like Amazon or something, which is hit or miss.

I do think $100-$150 is reasonable for a good microwave that will last!

At this point I would love it if Mexico, Canada, Greenland, NATO, and whoever else Trusk have threatened would team up and invade US, overthrow the fascists, and oversee a legitimate election with paper ballots and CCTV at all polling places and ballot tallying locations. Our elected officials are clearly going to continue hemming and hawing, filing lawsuits while telling us to “fight back,” without understanding that none of it is going to work now that they’ve dug their claws in. He never should have been inaugurated. If the general [sane] public thought something about the election was weird pretty much immediately, that means the Biden admin likely had hard evidence long before we started putting the pieces together. But no, let’s have a peaceful transfer of power, that’ll show 'em.

Also a partner with the same name and sense of style.

Foolproof!
