#bedbath — Public Fediverse posts

James Jani's documentary about the cult of Bed Bath & Beyond stock was easily the single greatest thing I watched in 2024 and in some ways one of the most terrifying things I've ever seen. Human beings obviously have a deeply ingrained drive to develop irrational beliefs when placed together in groups - not quite #Thanatos but also not unrelated.

(Part one, about the cult of Gamestop, is also pretty great, but not nearly as disturbing.)

"The departure of #Nordstrom’s,... & so many others, belies the myth that U.S. companies know better about operating in Canada... I don’t know exactly why U.S. retailers come to Canada to die, but I suspect it’s because the U.S. market and the Canadian market are different..."
"After the high-profile failure of #Target in 2015, a number of U.S. chains set up shop and since retracted or left (#BrooksBrothers, #BedBath&Beyond)."
