Interesting how this poll comes out at the same time as all these articles saying how the Teamsters Union has broken years of precident by not officially endorsing a presidential candidate.

With more weapoms shipments being sent since Oct 7th, than days have passed since Oct 7th, it’s absolutely time for prompt action. I admire Mr. Sanders and his resolve. With this resolution, maybe we can prevent another 30k deaths in nearly 10 mons time. This is a bold undertaking, reflecting the collective will of most other countries that condemn the Palestinian genocide. Well done.
My dad said I would struggle to manage an average life, but look at me now dad! I’m makin this shit look easy!
I think we’re all fucked, because the monsters who run all of this value money over other’s lives, and it helps with military retention. I’m sure there are people who wanted to get out of the service, but were worried about healthcare costs.
The private sector doesn’t care, as long as the lines keep going up. And the government doesn’t want to lose one of their sticks to keep people on their bases and ships.
So they’ll buy mansions, and yachts, and travel the world. While I have to sit at home, just waiting for the day to be able to afford a vacation. And I’ll sit and watch as our tax money is used by private businesses for stadiums, or mine-resistant vehicles for suburban cops, or to turn brown children into skeletons.
All the while, you’re sitting there with constant pain and all the world cares about is the amount of testosterone in athletes at the Olympics. That’s what’s driving conversations these days. More circuses to distract us from the real problems.
I get to pay 4k a year, just to be able to be charged only 6k out of pocket. After that 10k, I still would owe 10% of every charge after that.
Or I can pay 2k a year for the privilage of being charged a little over 8k out of pocket. After that, I’d owe 20% of everything after.
So every year, I get to gamble my prospective income on how much healthcare I think I’ll need. I want to save on monthly costs? Hopefully nothing emergent happens. Expecting a procedure? Now I’m out a few extra hundred a month just so I don’t have to pay more than 10% after already paying 6k.
All this is assuming I don’t get denied coverage and have to foot the whole bill anyway. I need to see a specialist, though, and the only one nearby isn’t in my network. I gotta drive an hour and a half or pay 100%.
I’m paying more than the savings I’m able to put away to assholes who own yachts bigger than the house I rent.
Who would view this system as favorable?
Catapulted into the sun, I believe.
Oh it’s an absolutely terrible idea. But it is something one can do with an old phone.
You can try to see how far you can skip it on a lake or pond.
What a garbage article. It makes it seem like the consequences of Israel’s genocide is actually a masterful gambit of Iran using militia groups to tighten a noose on Israel. It fails to mention the genocide at all. Also the way it weaves in the threat of war with China, and hints at nuclear war, is peak fearmongering and sabrerattling. I figured Forbes would be a shitty source, and I was not surprised.
The whole article is based on saying that war is unavoidable, but also fails to mention that those same Iranian backed militias have all said they would cease aggression if the genocide stopped. Israel’s commitment to this genocide is the only thing that guarantees further war.
Trump assassination attempt causes Tenacious D to break up was not on my 2024 bingo card.
My work stands on it’s own two legs. Their work doesn’t affect my paycheck. If their laziness impacts me, I will not stay silent about it at all. Other than that, I’m punching my clock and focusing on what I need to.
Rant incoming:
Why in the fuck do we care what any of these people think? Go pretend to be someone else and get paid more money than I ever will. All of your opinions are irrelevant, just stick to entertaining us. It reeks of mass public influence. “Michael Douglas thinks this. If you like him, maybe you should consider this point of view.” The transaction between celebrities and the public should end as soon as the credits roll. These asshole have mansions and private chefs, there’s no way they share much in common with the average person, so why should I care in any way what they think? Get back on the screen, dance until they yell cut, take your money, and shut the fuck up already.
Are we filing charges against sock puppets named Boeing? Who is the man in charge? Over three hundred people are dead. Those families deserve justice, not whatever this is.
Pretty sure this happened in the show Community.
There’s a pest control salesman who goes door to door every year, who I can’t stand. Not only does he say outright incorrect things, but he can’t take no for an answer. Every polite refusal turns into, “You know what, we can knock 80 bucks off that right now” or “How about we just make the first month free.”
Next time he comes knocking, I’m going to be immediately upfront. I’m not interested in paying money to spray poison, that will end up in the canal and the river, to kill bugs that birds and frogs and bats could be eating.
Some skinny girl climbed into my lap at a college house party. I was very fucked up. For some reason, I thought a good thing to say was, “Why not, I’ve fucked fatter chicks.” She immediately got up and we never spoke again. No clue why I said that. I never even got her name, which is a shame, because I’d like to apologize.
I love how the AI art understands that there should be more stuff in a sub. There’s pipes and wires in that image, where on the now crushed sub, it was a smooth room into which they were bolted. Even the AI image controller has a wire on it.
And the sabres rattled softly.
Stopping at two drinks.
My slopes aren’t as slippery, where did you buy yours? I get why you said that, given the tumultuous nature surrounding Israel since it’s founding in the 1940’s, but the Arab nations said they would cease aggression when Israel did. Perhaps Israel having it’s sticks taken away is a step towards a peaceful Middle-East?
