Both rappers released diss tracks that took blistering personal shots on Friday night. "He doesn't have the heart for the lying, disrespect, and animosity it requires to make an effective diss track," Pierre wrote. Later in the track, Drake references Cole's diss track and apology. At the end of the track, Lamar samples a 1994 Tupac interview to simulate a conversation between the two rappers. "6:16 in LA" also parodies Drake's song titles, which often feature location names and timestamps.

Those companies already count many of Macy's shoppers as their customers, according to an analysis of credit card data by Earnest Analytics. Macy's closures could put as much as $2 billion of market share up for grabs. The department store's net sales were $23.1 billion in the most recent fiscal year, and it said the 150 stores that it's closing account for less than 10% of sales. About 63% of Macy's stores have a T.J. Maxx or Marshalls within a one-mile radius, according to an analysis by Jefferies. Off-price stores also draw a similar customer, which tends to be more affluent.

The mall, which is about 60 percent vacant, has a hodgepodge of other tenants. Call center workers are parking or being dropped off for their shifts. But on the other side of the parking lot, scores of young children dash out of cars and through a mall entrance. They’re not playing hooky; they’re going to school in a former J.C. Penney store. And if all goes according to plan, they will keep going there for years as the school adds more grades and takes over more of the mall each year.

Fast, free shipping and easy, no-cost returns have become a baseline expectation in the modern online shopping experience.

Returns are a necessary and inevitable part of online shopping.
