Yeah… I feel kind of stupid now.

I have come around to the view that you do not need to “wrench the wealth out of the hands of the hoarders”. You could also disappear that wealth.

So very curious about the Ted Kaczynski photo in the background.

I don’t even have to click on that to know that Russia is not listed.

We understand that fully 1/3 of our population are absolutely bonkers. It’s like being in a boat at sea and 1/3 of the passengers are drilling holes in the bottom of the boat. What the rest of the world should know is that no matter how fucked it seems at the moment, it is going to get worse. We are on the precipice of a climate catastrophe. The AMOC is going to grind to a halt, Europe is going to go into a deep freeze, weather patterns globally are going to fall apart and become chaotic. The real problems are in the distance, so you should prepare yourselves.

Please somebody use a drone and roundup to draw penises on all of his favorite greens.

Have you ever given consideration to the fact that there may be a God… but they are malevolent, not benevolent?

Who is kidding who? Ukraine could agree and Trump would just give it all to Putin. The guy is not an honest broker, I wish the media would stop treating him as one.

I have said this elsewhere, but it bears repeating. Unless you keep meticulous records of what you have paid into Social Security, it would be wise to log into https://www.ssa.gov/myaccount/ First you need to log into your social security account. If you have never done this is can be a bit cumbersome, but better to get it figured out now than later. Then once you have been able to log in to “my Social Security” you will see a “Your Social Security Statement” on that landing page. It will allow you do download a PDF that has your projected benefit and your earnings records by work year.

Edit… probably best to download the pdf and the xml.

I imagine this is a rhetorical question. I am fairly certain most of those “people” if you want to call them that were not actual people, and those who were were groomed and misled into parroting those talking points to weaken something closer to “democratic” leadership, and strengthen the hand of those who are ready to move past democracy and all its pesky laws that they have to navigate in their subjugation of all but the ultra wealthy. I imagine they are the same “people” who would classify Sanders as a “massive disappointment”.

Thank you! I had no idea that this existed. This is a solution for me personally, but also a solution for our clusterfuck IT people at work that do not understand that we have hundreds of millions of dollars in contracts that need to be fulfilled with software that costs us $12 per day to use and probably wont run on windows 11, instead of breaking everything and migrating it to a software that costs us $32 a day to use but will work on windows 11.

I’m less than a decade from taking my SS early. I have already downloaded my SS deduction tables from their website in anticipation of them doing something this stupid. “Oh… you think you are eligible for earned benefits? We can’t seem to locate your contribution history… so sorry for you.”

It is worse, I was convinced I was having discussions with AI multiple times. It seemed to me that they were using some subs for AI to post content and then interact with human and AI. It is another laboratory to train their AI.

No Pentel P209? WTF?

I was thinking this. They plan on disappearing journo’s, why not start with a big fish for a really fucking good reason. They probably assume that he is as stupid as they are, and after they dropped juicy story in his lap, he would just run with it and publish something with classified information in it.

Free speech… riiigghhht

We don’t need to redistribute the wealth. Destroying it would work just fine.

We can’t let billionaires own the town hall if we plan on having honest conversations. I am glad I finally found this place, and wish I would have left reddit earlier.

If OP’s neighbor got a promotion within the last 2 years he is a probationary employee.
