Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Pictures and Videos Show Shelves Overflowing With Unwanted Cases of Bud Light Through the Memorial Day WeekendOh well, Memorial Day weekend isn't a big beer-drinking holiday. ![]() Shoppers share videos of unwanted cases of Bud Light sitting untouched on grocery store aisles over Memorial Day weekend Bud Light Beer is experiencing a significant decline in sales across the nation, as supermarket shelves remain fully stocked on Memorial Day weekend The drop is sales is a result of the backlash faced by parent company Anheuser-Busch over their use of transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney in recent ads Social media users have been sharing images of shelves packed full of Bud Light in supermarkets, highlighting the negative impact on sales Aisle after aisle in supermarkets across the nation appears to confirm that Bud Light is far from being the flavor of the week. On what is considered by many Americans to be the unofficial start to summer, instead of shelves looking depleted from a Memorial Day weekend of partying and drinking, rows of store shelves sat packed with Bud Light and Budweiser in posts shared on social media. Following the backlash over the use of transgender influence Dylan Mulvaney by parent company Anheuser-Busch to promote Bud Lights, the company has seen its market value tank. The hit has been anecdotal and in actual sales, which have fallen 26 percent since the backlash started in early April. The controversy left social media users documenting the company's carnage in real-time and the dramatic effect it is having on their sales. Users across the country posted supermarket shelves stocked with Bud Light in their local stores, which appear to have been left completely untouched, as once loyal drinkers turn away from the brand. Bud Light sales fell for the sixth consecutive week with retailers slashing prices -- with one store charging $3.49 for a 24-pack and another offering a rebate that would see the beer being sold for free. 'This could be a promotional summer the likes we haven't seen since after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, where there was so much beer inventory backed up in the trade that it initiated the price war of all price wars,' Beer Business Daily stated in a recent report. Bud Light volumes for the week ending May 13 fell 28.4 percent, following a 27.7 percent drop the prior week.DC_Draino posted this picture. I'm not sure it's from Memorial Day, as I've seen pictures like this before -- but it could very well be a fresh one. All pictures of the shelves fully stocked with Bud Light of course all look alike. ![]() ![]()

A leftwing ESG promoter says that corporations shouldn't be "beholden" to their customers, but only to the ESG agenda: "Investors are not going to look at a 6 week stock drop from one company (Bud Light) as something that is really that important." We'll see about that on Labor Day.

I just had a serious scare. I'm going through the publishing process on the new book, and Amazon sent me an email saying they weren't going to print it at all because I "mislabeled it" as an original work when their search showed it was in the public domain. I did include the entirety of Washington's journal on the journey as an epilogue, but the first 90% of the book is mine. I wrote them back explaining, but my experience with these people is that they're not terribly intelligent. Well, they passed it. Ugh. that was dumb.

In this same realm of the buttseks world. I'm seeing so many different commercials for medicine for people to "prep." How much time, effort, and brain power was used to create a medicine so that a small small percentage of people can continue to have anonymous meth fueled gay sex in night club bathrooms, that could have been used to work on actual diseases that afflict people through no fault of their own? It can't be a profitable endeavor, so why focus on that unless your goal is to continue to promote shit behavior.

ESG is (at its root) a part of the war against "The West", against Liberty and Justice for All.
They are not forcing "equality under the law", they are trying to force an abandonment of Christianity and an acceptance of their new Woke religion. But that effort is not to really win converts to the "better religion", it is to destroy the West and individual sovereignty. They want us to submit and obey ... kinda like the hard core Islamists, but more insidious. Posted by: illiniwek at May 30, 2023 01:22 PM (Cus5s) 47

Pure wishcasting. Investors are individual actors who will do what they feel is best. Some will leave their money where it is because that's easiest. Some will support AB due to politics. Some will look for an exit. Some might take the opportunity to buy stock, thinking it's a good deal. I don't know how many of each group are out there. My prediction is that many people who bought Budweiser out of habit and tradition will find new favorites and simply won't come back.

I can honestly say that this boycott has lasted longer than I expected. I'm still not optimistic about the long-term effect, though, or whether this supposed backlash will really redound on other woke companies.
Same with Target. Same with the LA Dodgers. Yeah, about that. . .I'm predicting the Dodgers' hypocritical "christian family and faith day" in July will result in a packed stadium and Dodgers' management will take the conclusion that Christians will meekly accept any desecration of their faith if you only make a token effort to appease them. But what do I know? I'm an asshole commenter on a smart military blog. Posted by: Mary Poppins' Practically Perfect Piercing at May 30, 2023 01:29 PM (AW0uW) 106

Conservatives are making Pride merch 'toxic.' Their real goal is much worse. Demonize and attack LGBTQ individuals for political gain. The attacks on drag performances, trans youths seeking gender affirming care and now Pride merchandise are all part of a pattern that seeks to replicate the hatred and prejudice that previously inflicted on Muslims.
my youngest child is LGBTQ and we went into our local Target looking for the Pride display and we were sad when it was not up. The LGB in LGBT has gained acceptance over the years. People support gay marriage in most places, being gay isn't so horrible anymore. The "T" is 30 years behind the rest of the movement. The LGBTQ+ movement cutting the TQ+ portion loose is an insurmountably stupid idea. This is all about white male supremacy.

Somebody over in medical claims has finally figured out that when the trannie fad hits the wall. There will be a tsunami of regret and malpractice suits. That the litigants will probably win. Esp. since they were mentally ill at the time. I knew someone professionally who had damaged themselves horribly and permanently and at the time it made perfect sense to them because they had early onset schizophrenia. Once treated with drugs, they were fine. But, there was no going back. They said they'd learned to live with it, but regretted it almost every day. I imagine if some doctor had convinced them to harm themselves in that way, they would've sue the living daylights out of them esp if a psychiatrist.* *I'm using "they" to keep "them" anonymous.

A leftwing ESG promoter says that corporations shouldn't be "beholden" to their customers, but only to the ESG agenda
______ *squints* *reads teleprompter* "I'm pleased to announce today an agreement between House Leader McCarthy and Senate Leader Schumer, on a new bill subsidising Anheuser-Bush and other ESG supporting companies that have lost significant market share due to economic terrorism. The extremist, white-nationalist, misogynist, transphobic agenda of the extreme MAGA supporters cannot be allowed to diminish the historic patriotic America loving brands such as Target and Kohl's. This bill is not perfect, the extremist MAGA supporters in the House forced a reduction of $1B from the $500B needed for this bill, but that is the price we have to pay for living in a society that allows MAGA politicians in positions of power. Despite the horrific underfunding, it is still a bill that moves us forward in the right direction. I fully intend to sign this bill when I return to the Capitol from my vacation. Thank you.

Our best-in-class beer business outpaces the industry as we strive to maintain our status as the #1 high-end beer supplier in the U.S. market.

The Corona and Modelo U.S. brand licenses are exclusively owned by Constellation Brands, Inc." They bought a brewery in Mexico for (?) $600M, so own production and distribution in the USA.

210 Yeah the bit I heard of it is absolutely terrible. Akwafina got cast as the voice for the seagull character...
She was hilarious in Crazy Rich Asians. Singing is obviously not her strength, but then, the original seagull voice wasn't great either. It's a seagull, after all. Posted by: Archimedes at May 30, 2023 01:41 PM I..withhold judgement a bit until I see the movie (probably never). While the song by itself is pretty bad, if the seagull in the movie is kind of an anthropomorphized seagull, and over-the-top loud, shrill, and annoying...the rap kind of fits. The rhythm and such are kind of okay and fitting. Here's the whole song for those curious: https://youtu.be/QKlQu_p97KI There is a part where she says "pigeons", I think twice...but it REALLY sounds like "bitches" to me, which I think makes it hilarious.

There is always a sea of insane ideas floating among the left. Seriously you can go over to DU or whatever sites and hear them. The mechanism by which one of the inner party selects and advances those ideas would be fascinating to understand though.

You go with stuff like Blitz, when its on sale. or BEER with the black and white label Posted by: Christopher Taylor at May 30, 2023 02:01 PM (0hOvj) 339

In keeping with this theme, the Dodgers Management put out this statement regarding having the Sister of Perpetual whatever appear on the field on June 16th:
"We have asked the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to take their place on the field at our 10th annual LGBTQ+ Pride Night on June 16th. We are pleased to share that they have agreed to receive the gratitude of our collective communities for the lifesaving work that they have done tirelessly for decades." Lifesaving work? I didn't know that they were running in to burning buildings saving old people and kittens, risking life and limb on battlefields, or working the graveyard shift in a busy ER.

In this same realm of the buttseks world. I'm seeing so many different commercials for medicine for people to "prep." How much time, effort, and brain power was used to create a medicine so that a small small percentage of people can continue to have anonymous meth fueled gay sex in night club bathrooms, that could have been used to work on actual diseases that afflict people through no fault of their own? It can't be a profitable endeavor, so why focus on that unless your goal is to continue to promote shit behavior.

I know a family who had a very, very religious background (though, I could not tell you their politics but it certainly wasn't hard left) had a child suddenly decide they were a "boy" (and this was after they married someone a few years prior, their social group apparently... had a lot of this stuff in it) and went through the whole sex change operation.

so that was nice! seriously the city has a big BIG homeless problem. we talk about San Fran but Philly is really bad now. it's relatively new? homeless camps all over the place. in the parks! ugh Posted by: BlackOrchid at May 30, 2023 02:13 PM (w0NJk) 406

And yeah, Bud LIght is not going to recover at this point, I don't think. It isn't going to vanish, but it isn't king anymore and won't be again. This has gone on too long. Cheap light beer is like toothpaste or hairbrushes. Brand preferences are there to simplify life. One fewer thing to think about. If that brand preference has now shifted to a different cheap light beer - and it's been going for so long that there's a real chance of that - then recovering those customers is going to be nigh on impossible.

Ben Shapiro @benshapiro I agree with every single critique of the shortcomings of the debt limit deal. In a rational world, we wouldn't just be fighting over discretionary spending, we'd be restructuring entitlements. We don't live in that world. Biden is the president; Schumer is the Senate leader. ==================== I've stayed out of the debt limit horseshit, because it is all fake theater of the oldest kind, but do not be fooled: this deal is a bad deal because Republicans are not willing to cut the budgets of DoD and DHS. If Lindsey Graham is willing to not fund Ukraine v. Russia and German defense (etc), and if the GOPe would be willing to reduce Washington Glowie budgets then the deal would be very different, and more meaningful.

One of the reasons I will never vote for him again.
Yeah he's not great on social issues. He can be massaged or directed to be, but his gut instinct is NY liberal. He worked with a lot of Hollywood types etc, and that can lead people to poor conclusions. The thing to remember is that not everyone who is homosexual or a tranny or whatever is a bizarre, horrible person. Most are just normal folks with an unusual side to them. A wrong side, but its only part of their life and persona. Most of them are not the type screaming that they are now MA'AM!!!!! So if you work with Bill who now calls himself Mystique and dresses like a hooker, they will still be the same Bill who worked hard and was easy to get along with, just in a silly stupid looking costume. That can lead some to conclude "well its not so bad, we should be sympathetic to them and not mean." And I am sympathetic to them, they are mentally damaged and need help, not mockery OR encouragement. But that doesn't make the whole movement okay.

Discounting the product and/or offering rebates are two enormously stupid marketing ideas.
The people who are now boycotting your product are not going to take it, even if you give them $2.99 to remove it from the store. And the people still buying it were willing to pay the regular price. So now AB not only looks desperate, they are also getting less money from the people sticking with them. In other words, almost as enormously stupid as involving Manvaney in the first place.

I like it pretty well although it promotes the old fashion idea that the way to increase revenue is to give the customers what they want.
Sim City was a lot of fun, but they really had a very specific philosophy on how a city should be designed, and pushed you very hard toward it: all mass transit, rail particularly. Posted by: Christopher Taylor at May 30, 2023 02:20 PM (0hOvj) Cities Skylines is a modern successor that as the same thumb on the scale but is more honest since you can get backups on your mass transit too and then you need to have things in walking distance at the station. If you like a model railroad on a computer its the bees knees, but needs a pretty good computer. Posted by: Oldcat at May 30, 2023 02:31 PM (eoQWY) 475

Discounting the product and/or offering rebates are two enormously stupid marketing ideas.

Posted by: The_Hoser at May 30, 2023 02:27 PM (N66D6) Discounting might work. Rebates are a dishonest method, as they are well aware that most rebate coupons are not filled in and its easy to 'lose' some in processing and many rebate checks aren't cashed.

If I were ever to get a motorcycle, I would get one of those tri bikes, much more comfortable, easier ride I suspect.

A tank made of beer?
The alt history of the name of the armored vehicle: when the Easter Uprising popped up, Black and Tans commandeered a new steel tank-wagon from Guinness and cut firing slits in the sides. So in a way the very first tank was made of beer. It was a stout one, too. Posted by: Way, Way Downriver at May 30, 2023 03:25 PM (jYCXf) 480

ask if you don't mind. I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your head prior to writing. I have had a tough time clearing my mind in getting my ideas out.
