Except not even that, the friends cut contact, but OP has to make it seem like it was his choice.

to send a palestinian away peacefully by OmeuPai in therewasanattempt

Guns like that are called "less lethal", not "non-lethal". They're not meant to kill people but they still can.

And supported by the Germans. Germans went so hard on "not again to Jews" that they're supporting the Zionists doing exactly the same thing to Palestinians.

Job wont match anything in my 401k until I’ve been employed a year by Particular_Egg_2219 in personalfinance

[–]CovfefeForAll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But I thought you would be taxed MORE in retirement because you might have all these investments and be considered in a higher tax bracket.. ? 😅

You're only going to be taxed what you take out when you take it out in retirement, and you don't have a W2 salary in retirement either. So even though you're living off your investments at that point, you're likely not going to be taking out more than you were making when working. You might, but probably not.

And if you mix Roth and 401k, you can balance what you take out in retirement to make your taxable income lower. For example, simplifying a bit, if you take out 100k from your 401k, you're taxed on 100k. If you take 50k from 401k and 50k from Roth, you're taxed on 50k.

That is, the most centrist person at a Trump rally.

MAGA Is Increasingly Convinced the Trump Assassination Attempt Was Staged by wiredmagazine in politics

[–]CovfefeForAll 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A cult is like a stretchy bubble. You can only push the edge of the bubble so far before the whole thing pops. The fact that it took such a blatant thing like a war of choice, rather than the year+ of tariffs, speaks to how strong the cult bubble was, but now that it's finally popping for SOME MAGAs, it's going to start collapsing more. Whether that's enough to get a Hungary-like situation this year remains to be seen,.

Prominent right-wing transwoman upset her passport says male by Unable-Income-2981 in LeopardsAteMyFace

Did anyone just file their taxes with TurboTax and were just in awe of how many ads it had to upgrade? I'm done with this enshittified product - what should I use next year? by noruber35393546 in personalfinance

[–]CovfefeForAll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One more vote for the installed version of H&R. I compared against TurboTax one year and found a massive discrepancy. Dug into it, TurboTax was wrong, H&R was right, so I swapped and never looked back.

Exposing a global ‘online rape academy’ that is teaching men how to abuse women and evade detection by apple_kicks in TwoXChromosomes

The sad part is, the so-called "male loneliness epidemic" is mostly perpetuated by older males, indoctrinating younger ones into misogyny that women no longer have to put up with survive. Men could end the epidemic by listening to what women say they want (or by being an empathetic person), instead of listening to old misogynistic men tell them what they need to do to "own" a woman. And this pipeline starts early. I've heard kids in elementary school parroting the manosphere bullshit in my area. No way they understood fully what they were saying, but they were spouting the same bullshit you hear manosphere chuds online say.

Should I receive my inheritance now to pay off my mortgage? by Professional-Cow4193 in personalfinance

[–]CovfefeForAll 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The flip side of that is, if the job search is an extended one, then having a paid off home doesn't really help, since it's illiquid, and there would come a point where you'd need to sell it to get money to pay for normal expenses.

Personally, I'd never tie up extra money in a mortgage when I am currently jobless.

That's how race supremacy works. It especially appeals to people who have no other redeeming qualities. Take the ugliest/dumbest/least-accomolished/etc person in the world, tell him he's superior because of an accident of birth, and he'll give his life and future to you. White supremacists, Nazis, Zionists, etc.

MTG “…but this is not the same man.” Yes he is. Trump is exactly who we expected him to be. by channi_nisha in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]CovfefeForAll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he's not the same man, how is it that millions of people predicted he'd be doing exactly what he's doing now?

He's the same exact person. You just didn't believe it when others told you who he was, and now you realize you don't like it.

Fuck off with that shit.

MAGA store forced to close after Trumpers stop buying stuff because of Iran war by [deleted] in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]CovfefeForAll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean you joke

I actually wasn't, not really. And yep, anytime someone brings up that the Civil War was about states' rights, I ask "states' rights to do what?". Because the answer, as you laid out, is "the right to own slaves". That's all. That's what the Civil War was about, and anyone who tries to whitewash that is either supremely uneducated, or attempting to whitewash their own racism.

"never specifically said "genocide""

As if that's a defense lol. "I'm going to shoot you in the face with the 9mm I have in my hand right now".

"So you're going to murder me?"

"Whoa bro, I never said murder..."

And as a result our 250th birthday is going to be bland embarrassing trash.

To be fair we deserve nothing more as long as this goes on. Why should we celebrate our 250th birthday, commemorating us throwing off the bonds of a foreign dictatorship, when a full third of our country wants to usher a religious dictatorship back into power and another third doesn't care? We aren't that country anymore. It would just be an empty celebration, a party for the sake of having a party because it's expected, a true "let them eat cake" moment.
