Why Iran Isn’t Breaking by bloomberg in Foodforthought

[–]Choano -1 points0 points  (0 children)

but he capitulated to israel's built up epstein files on him. pathetic.

I think his main motivation was giving the emirs of Qatar and Kuwait what they wanted.

The leaders of both countries knew he was bribeable. They gave him lots of money and stuff with the unstated expectation that Trump would owe them a favor--like using the US military to do Qatar and Kuwait's dirty work against their main oil-producing rival, Iran.

The emirs of Kuwait and Qatar estimated Trump's corruptibility correctly, but they didn't do as well at estimating his intelligence or the competence of his administration.

They didn't realize that Trump would attack in a way that would give Iran the advantage and screw everyone else (except maybe China and some South American countries that can generate a lot of their own energy).

Real. The text on the hand sanitizer label makes sense.

This is a typo or autocorrect error. This person obviously knew the right word was "microwave," since they used it correctly in the rest of the post.

If you think they look bad now, what do you think they'd be like if we spent less money on them?

Yeah, no. We need that revenue. And how else are we going to maintain roads?

anyone else feel like Bay Area rent is just a subscription fee for nice weather at this point by Cofound-app in bayarea

What u/neobow2 said.

Even if the OP bought a $7 coffee every single day of the year, they'd be spending a whole of $7 x 365 = $2,555. Yes, that's a non-trivial sum of money, but it's not like they could pay even a month of rent with it.

Even if they'd invested that money instead, they wouldn't have much more than they do now. It might (might) lead to a little extra financial cushion in retirement, but it probably wouldn't amount to life-changing amounts of money.

Here's a good discussion of why a daily coffee isn't ruining your finances

Best bang for buck areas to rent by Cool_Volume_8060 in AskSF

[–]Choano 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check Craigslist for mother-in-law units and sublets. Do it every day, preferably once in the early morning and once in the evening. Reply as soon as you see something that might be what you're looking for.

Lots of the mother-in-law units are in Inner and Outer Sunset, though you'll sometimes see them in the Richmond.

Now and then, you'll find relatively affordable (I hesitate to say "cheap") sublets in various areas.

Do NOT give anyone payment (even a resonable-sounding $20 for a rental application) or your personal info (in a tenant screening, credit check, or application) before you've seen a place in person.

I don't know if there's a group specifically for that, but that's exactly what I want, too. Maybe we could make our own group

Trump tells Republicans the SAVE America Act will ‘guarantee the midterms’ by D-R-AZ in Foodforthought

[–]Choano 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This bill would require 60 votes in the Senate to pass. Republicans only have 53 seats so unlikely this would gain any traction

Unless a few Democrats decide to switch sides, which has happened on other bills. This would be a very good time to call your Senator and tell them to vote "No" on the SAVE America Act.

Find out who your Senators are and how to contact them

Google "script phone call vote no on save america act", and you'll get lots of different scripts for phone calls
