So, I've been living in mexico for some time now and I can tell you, The Bimbo Bear is probably the greatest exception to that law. I don't know if it's corruption of the law enforcement or the company found some legal loophole but he's still around alongside "Tía Rosa". I remember, right when that law was approved, they started toasting the bears face On their pre-made toast, that bear is powerful

depending on what the penalties are they might see it beneficial to just keep using the mascot and tank any fines they get slapped with. brand recognition is extremely important, especially when what you're selling is a pretty basic product like bread, so I could see this being the case.

THAT'S BIMBO!!! I KNOW BIMBO

indeed bimbo is a mexican brand that does bread and pastries. although the Osito Bimbo® is presumably no longer used in his native homeland after the ban on mascots in food, he still lives on internationally as I can confirm in the one (1) place near me that sells bimbo stuff (including pre-toasted toast, which looks and feels about as unappetizing as it sounds)

    Apparently its a mascot for a bakery company which is traded in the mexican stock exchange according to google

    I love that Bimbo (Mexico) bought out Canada Bread in 2014, mostly because they operate a bakery facility down the street from where I work.

    Oh, that fresh baked 🍞 smell ❤️

    oh man, yeah, those packaged toast things, they kinda look like those super hard weird brown discs that they put in chex mix, but scaled up to normal bread size. hella unappetizing.

    I'm kinda surprised this brand is _that_ unknown, I feel like most grocery stores I've been to have had some amount of Bimbo products in the bread isle. cultural makeup of the area, I guess.

    mental breakdowns aren't fun. empathy is good and all, but it's becoming too much. i won't be making any rash decisions though. but i think there is something seriously wrong with me. i shouldn't care on this level. this is not insight. this is a defect. i would very much like it to stop.

    yes, in my experience the wildcard only works the way one would expect it to work when it's on both sides.
    I may be stupid

    *

    represents 0-or-more-characters.

    So searching *foo is asking for tags ending with exactly foo (eg. if there was a tag foo, that would be returned, but foot wouldn't)
    and searching foo* is asking for tags beginning with exactly foo (In this case both foo and foot would be returned)
    If you really want to search for 'tags WITH THIS FRAGMENT IN THEM', then *foo* is correct -- '>=0 characters, followed by "foo", followed by >=0 characters'

    I think there is also no limit on amount of *.

    (this is all standard glob-pattern convention, but IIRC e621 doesn't support the other parts of glob matching: ?:'exactly one character', and []: character classes, which is a whole thing )

    Yeah, I can offer you some services. Just give me the serial number of your dollar bill, the date it was minted, and the digits in the corner.

    I was thinking about that and I wanted the opinion of you guys, I liked three pictures (counting the one I am using) and I wanted to change my avatar, I should keep this photo or change it, and if I change it, which of these two would you think is better?

    Hi. I'm going to speak English for a few minutes up to an hour with someone in real life through the internet in about half a day from now. And you're watching the Disney Channel.
