Thanks for the clarification!

It probably would have been clearer had that been said. Something like “This map shows how if a person works two jobs, even at $35/hr, for a combined total of 50 hr/week and an annual salary of $91,000, still isn’t enough for a family of four in most of the country.”

So I’m confused a bit here.

You’ve calculated the annual wage as:

$35/hr * 2080 hr/yr = $72,800

Okay, that’s 40 hours a week. No arguments here. But then you say this:

Shading is based on affordability when working 10 extra hours per week, paid at $35/hr

So did you assume that “full-time” is only 30 hours, and that most people don’t work 40 hours? Or did you not calculate that “10 extra hours per week” means most people would be working 50 hours which is overtime and paid at 1.5 times base rate?

1.5 * $35/hr = $52.50/hr

This would bring the salary up to

($35/hr * 2080 hr/yr) + ($52.50/hr * 10hr/wk * 52wk/yr) = $100,100/yr

Can you clarify this for me?

“Predictions” necessitate evidence to base them on. These are garden-variety “guesses pulled from the ass of a drug-addled fascist”.

It was a real shame no trains derailed with all those tanks on them.

The only thing at the time that can help you is taking a bath or immersing your junk in hot water so it relaxes everything and makes you reflexively pee

Step 1: take in damaged Cybertruck.

Step 2: do absolutely fuckall to it.

Step 3: charge owner $6000 for repairs.

Step 4: watch happy owner drive off.

My dude, have you ever seen a Swastikkkar? Those panels ain’t even perfect when they leave the factory.

Walmart made BILLIONS OF DOLLARS last year, far more than expected.

Under Joe Biden’s absolutely terrible, awful, most baddest saddest America-lastest economy?

Yeah, you can’t say that a “religious resurgence” is happening by only counting one religion. Are there more Buddhists in the West? More Muslims? More Hindus? More Pastafarians?

Because I think Axios is missing, intentionally or not, the bigger reason: the religious right tells men they should be in control. Young men who feel like they aren’t are receptive to that messaging.

Out of curiosity, I looked it up a while back.

It’s 11,631 km from Shenzen to Los Angeles. That’s about 6280 nautical miles.

The average container ship speed is 16-25 knots. Let’s split the difference and call it 20.

6280 nm / 20 kn = 314 hours

That’s a little over 13 days just to cross the Pacific, assuming a steady course and no issues. Add in time to load the ship in China and unload it in LA, and you can see why the most-cited estimates are three to four weeks for cross-Pacific shipping.

If no ships have arrived from China in the past few days, that means it was a month ago (hey, anyone remember “Liberation Day” on April 2?) that ships stopped sailing. And that means it will be at least another month before any more arrive, assuming they leave today.

Trump voters have really fucked over the US.

It’s the Google Images Search button, since that was a quick screenshot from my phone.

Also “give my employees paid time at home while business is slow” sounds exactly like the kind of magnanimity that Elon lacks.

It sounds like they may not have a choice in that matter soon enough.

I think the answer is over there somewhere.

The workers, who are paid hourly, were told they could either take paid time off or come in for cleaning and training but would not be working on the production line.

That wording is ambiguous, but given the alternative is “come in and do cleaning” my guess is “take paid time off” means workers have to burn their own vacation time if they don’t want to lose money. Otherwise, who in their right mind would volunteer to work if the company is offering paid furlough?

I think twenty-four is how many are in a case?

ICE is going to be begging for the due process they’re denying to others.

Yeah, we should also add reckless speeder, visible alcoholic, election-denying liar, and Trump supporter too.

Oh, and FYI- those are negative qualities.

And they also decided “do no work on the Sabbath” also meant “don’t push the buttons on the microwave.”

Or that if you circle your city with a wire, that counts as your city limits for purposes of traveling on the Sabbath.

Point is, rabbinical law has always been about finding the loopholes because they consider it a mark of godliness.
