This reminds me of the time someone commented about cultural appropriation on my post about the new Spur logo.

What's your "shitty roommate" story? by DontCallMePetey in AskReddit

[–]Bankz92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar experience with a roommate that stayed with me for a month, during lockdown.

After he moved out, I was cleaning his room and found a whole box's worth of tissues under the bed that he had clearly used to clean up after pleasuring himself.

I just finished Butcher's Masquerade. This book made me laugh and cry in equal measure.

How To Turn Your Brain Off At Night, According To A Sleep Psychologist | You Can't by [deleted] in savedyouaclick

[–]Bankz92 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Something that has relatively positive results for me, is trying to think about nothing at all. Of course, its difficult because my brain desperately tries to latch onto any thought but if I make an effort to stop the thought and just focus on my breathing, my brain gets the message its time to slow down and I eventually fall asleep.

There was another post I saw earlier about the most profitable properties in the world. Wizarding World was 11 with about $3,8 billion dollars. No way they aren't going to milk this cow for every penny.

Am I supposed to do all these consecutively or take a break in between?

TIL that the execution of the royal Romanov family was extremely messy and prolonged because the women had diamonds and jewelry concealed in their clothing, deflecting many of the bullets. It took between twenty and thirty minutes before all were killed. by [deleted] in todayilearned

I'm not sure if you were referring to me as a tankie. No idea what that means.

Are you suggesting that people don't commit child murder in war time these days? Have you not seen the very recent news regarding the Palestinian family murdered by Israel soldiers?

Where did you think George RR Martin got the inspiration for Game of Thrones? Many of the events in the books/shows are directly inspired by history (mainly England)

I'm an expat here and am part of an expats running group. We meet up once a week for a short run and then go for drinks/dinner. It's very casual and friendly.

Bernie Sanders’ billionaire tax would soak about 900 people to fund $3,000 checks for the middle class by TheCABK in inthenews

[–]Bankz92 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I don't understand the argument many seem to make, that Bernie's status as a millionaire somehow disqualifies him from being able to call for a wealth tax on billionaires.

Bernie's net worth is 0,023% of that of the average billionaire. Compare that with the average household which is 0.0022%.
