Easy solution: don’t cancel debt for people who live in those states. Say the Republicans blocked it. Move forward with everyone else.

You know the answer to this. Because the CEO at your company sucks but you still need the money. Many people, even those in your industry, do not wear suits at work. I guarantee it.

Please re-read:

Do you think “neurotypical” people love dealing with random people’s opinions and needs?

Disliking a suit and tie isn’t some revelation to “normies”. You are not a radical for thinking that. In fact, all the little things that annoy you probably annoy other people too.

This is a clue to easy small talk. Just say that something annoys you. “Oh man, this suit is murder in this heat.” It’s easy.

Either the answer will be “Yeah man, heh” or “nah, I like it”. You have now successfully engaged in small talk.

exist because of ridiculous social expectations

This is called “taking other people’s opinions into account”. That’s what a society is. If you want your opinions listened to and acted on by others, you have to reciprocate.

Do you think “neurotypical” people love dealing with random people’s opinions and needs? No, but they see the value in cooperating with others to get what they want. You are “expected” to wear clothes in public because I don’t know how often you bathe yourself. You are “expected” to not yell in public because if every rando yelled whenever they wanted, life would be more stressful.

When you close a business on paper you don’t suddenly lose access to services in the name of that business.

Yes you do. Your bank account is in the old business’s name, and any lines of credit you have will be in that business’s name as well. Doing anything for a new business is harder than for an established one. Once you explain “oh yeah I did own that one, I just changed the name for tax purposes” you sound like a scammer.

Banks and suppliers (good ones) are not going to waste their time figuring out your scheme. They will just drop you.

JFK is not considered one of the best. He didn’t even have a full term, so there’s no way to know. People liked him because he was young and handsome and died that way.

He started the Vietnam War. His only real test was the Cuban Missile Crisis. He did adopt Keynesianism economic policies (over more classical policies) and proposed the bill that became the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Those are all important, but he honestly wasn’t in office long enough to do much.

And besides, like you said he was 43, not 35. AOC would not be able to do anything because she doesn’t have the relationships yet. Good presidents don’t come from the House of Representatives. They come from the Senate (JFK, Obama), Governors (FDR), or Vice Presidents (Harris).

Honestly, 35 is too young to be president. 40 to 60 is probably the sweet spot. Make the upper limit 65 or 70 (but start negotiating at 60).

Uh, Android is the alternative to Apple’s iOS. That’s your alternative. Android is much more customizable.

If they said “these fortunes are real and will come true” they would be liable for fraud.

Microsoft’s argument that they are not liable must include the idea that their Copilot AI is not expected to deliver true statements in its summaries. That’s clearly not what the purpose of the summary is.

You made the comparison between one person and a million. I quote:

We remember Eisenhower, not the millions who died

We do remember those people… there’s a huge WWII memorial in DC and memorials around the country. The Korean War has a great memorial in DC too, great statues.

Dwight Eisenhower apparently has a small memorial as well. I had to look it up to find it. The first review says:

We just happened to find this memorial while waiting for our timed entry into the Air and Space Museum.

So, who is remembered more?

I think in one sense it can be good. Sometimes it is counterproductive to downvote someone from 1 to 0. I think this would prevent that, as the first downvote is probably the most important one.

But I agree that making any data public will allow everyone to be categorized easily. “This person dislikes this content and likes other content.”

Remember, you are giving this info to everyone. Mark Zuckerberg will be able to see what you like and dislike in all public votes.

Not really. Especially when talking about physical pain.

You should not be in discomfort all the time. This is the kind of thinking that prevents people from going to the doctor. Pain isn’t normal.

This shows that Hamas was more interested in being warlords than the actual business of governing. Just like the Israeli government is more interested in conquering a tiny bit of bombed out desert than actually living in peace.

Both sides are clearly led by pieces of shit. Israel has a democracy though, so they are choosing to be led by pieces of shit. Palestinians might have some shitty beliefs about Jewish people, but they don’t have a voice in their government.

Literally no country actually cares about Palestinians. Iran and their proxies (Hezbollah, Hamas, the Houthis, Syria) just want to be warlords. Turkey, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia just want to distract their domestic audience. Europe is just going to wring their hands and hope the killing stops.

America is actually the biggest force for peace in the region. All of these were signed in Washington DC (or nearby at Camp David):

The thing is, it’s not even necessary to be this drastic. Feel free to start negotiating from this point (tax all wealth above $50 million) but even settling for a 2% tax on wealth above $1 billion would be good. You can ease into it with a 1% tax on wealth above $100 million.

This wouldn’t really affect the living standard of anyone wealthy enough to be taxed. Interest on invested assets will pay the tax easily. That’s what Biden meant by “nothing will fundamentally change” for the wealthy.

If you have $1 billion you will probably be living off of $40 million in interest per year. A 1% tax would mean $9 million of that is taken as wealth tax (plus there will be some other income or capital gains tax). You will be fine.

Till said her daughter was sleepy during the Tuesday court visit because the family doesn’t have a permanent residence.

The teen was seeing King’s court as part of a visit organized by The Greening of Detroit, an environmental group.

Uh… so this child is almost homeless and is donating their time to help the community. Clearly this judge is very bad at judging people.

Lol!

Yeah, just like how black people were bad and the “children of Ham” or whatever. After the Civil Rights Movement, Morman God mysteriously changed his mind and said “black people are ok now”.

So would this mean that Disney can no longer use their massive legal department to crush fair use of their IP? If someone signs up for Disney+, the arbitration agreement goes both ways.

I would think a competent judge would just ask the Disney lawyer that question. Like, “do you want to be out of a job?”
