We should’ve been taxing homes or land that people own but are not their primary residence, from the start.
It would be super easy to implement, and flexible - if housing prices are too high for 75% of the population, you raise those taxes little by little and the problem eventually sorts itself out. If it’s no longer a problem, you reduce the taxes.
Probably, but could just as well be anxious attachment since we don’t have the whole story. I’m on the anxious side and this happens a lot if the other doesn’t show enough interest or is closed off in conversation.
I think there’s a line somewhere and for me the line is whether the job is suitable for children. Like, doing chores around the house or on your grandparents’ farm. Paper route riding a bike. I worked summers at a carnival, and at a pool when I was a bit older. Low physical labor, low responsibility, low customer interaction, family friendly environments. You’re right it should never interfere with education.
If I saw a kid at the register of a fast food place or a store, I would turn around immediately and never return. Just leaves a bad taste in one’s mouth.
Absolutely, have that conversation at least. Just tell them how uncomfortable you feel and if you can find a compromise. My wife and I got married in a courthouse for less than $50 and we still think it’s the best decision we ever made. Maybe do a road trip tour where you see small groups of people/family and celebrate afterwards.
Yeah, just think - we could not only protect more lives, we could be having doctors suit better purposes if we started treating guns like, y’know, abortion in Texas. A bit depressing.
Malcolm Gladwell’s podcast series on guns sheds some light on the phenomenon: despite the increase in guns and gun violence, doctors in the U.S. have become increasingly specialized in saving gunshot victims, which essentially turns a homicide into an assault (and police don’t categorize gun violence separately from assault). There’s also some progress being made to build more trauma centers closer to high risk areas of the U.S., which has been a big problem in more violent cities.
It honestly doesn’t matter what they choose to say because nobody will believe them anyway. And not that this will persuade voters in the near future, but maybe they should try writing contraception rights into the constitution. That would at least be a good start.

Therapist: you need to focus less on the things that are outside of your control, and come to accept the fact that there are some things you just can’t change.
Me: crying you mean some things just be what they be?

What do ya have against podcasting? It’s educational, informative, it’s free speech. I learn so much from them.
I love this because I’ve been using Firefox exclusively but miss the style of Opera. Now I have zero reason to go back.
Well see, capitalism isn’t about productivity. It’s about maximizing capital. More consumers means more spending, and more money moving to people maximizing capital. So… Capitalism hates the death of consumers and loves procreation even more.
If Palestine continues with their eye for an eye approach, they are going to lose their fight for freedom. They need strong allies, like every other country fighting for their freedom. Ukraine is the best example I have, but I know it’s not the same. I hope Palestine gets their freedom my friend, it doesn’t look good so far. This is the last comment I’m gonna make.
You didn’t read my post. I’m on nobody’s side. What Isreal has done is 100% not okay, and at scale much worse than what Hamas has collectively done in response.
Yeah, I once had a job working 60-70 hours a week. I ate terrible fast carbs for energy and slept 3-5 hours a night. Eventually I developed an autoimmune/CFS-like illness because I was ignoring my body’s needs.
I think about the less fortunate who have to live this way under stress, all the time. The people who don’t have the option to just “opt out of the experiment”.
