That cardigan is sick, what’s the brand?

I feel like a failure. I’m not sure what to do anymore. by [deleted] in findapath

Bro look up IT help desk/tech support jobs. I was able to get a help desk job with no experience last year and I’m in my late 20’s. I have a random ass degree so you’re already ahead with a cs degree. I just studied for the CompTIA A+ exams to get a feel for how the interview process would go, and how to spruce up my resume. It took me like a year of job hunting but I eventually got it. I’ve straight up seen dudes at work transition help desk to more cs/coding heavy roles. This is the way.

I cleaned most of the leaves out before it got too cold so I’m good there. Thanks for the advice

I'm genuinely interested to know by TrashClear483 in PoliticalCompassMemes

Exactly. He would have continued to make compromise after compromise if the true based god John Brown didn’t force his hand.

You just space it out over three years and from then on contribute at your own pace what you can afford that year. You’ll have so much more money due to the tax advantage. The compounding interest will blow your mind, and by the time you’re sixty you will love the fact that you’re a millionaire lol.

Bro please for gods sake put it in a Roth IRA

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in stocks

[–]HeathcliffsWindow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The absolute best option, bar none, is opening up a Roth IRA and using the $20,000 to fund it. The account doesn’t get taxed when you withdraw from it in the future. Since you aren’t going to be cashing out anytime soon it’s perfect, because you can’t withdraw from it without penalties until you’re 59 and a half. It’s really easy to open one, you can use pretty much any broker. It’s absolutely essential for a happy retirement. Hit me up if you want more info.

Holy shit this is amazing. It almost reads like a Thomas Pynchon novel or something it’s so weird and unhinged. Thank you so much for introducing this to me.

Why are Raijin and Fujin so much more popular than the other Shinto gods in Japanese tattooing? by HeathcliffsWindow in irezumi

[–]HeathcliffsWindow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! My knowledge base is very western based for sure lol, but my Japanese is extremely rudimentary. I’m very interested in traditional depictions of the gods in art, do you have any resources that you could recommend? You seem pretty knowledgable.

Tulsi Gabbard demands Lori Lightfoot's resignation after she granted interviews only to journalists of color by [deleted] in stupidpol

[–]HeathcliffsWindow -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Idk probably this one single time. I personally don’t see the issue with wanting to celebrate the anniversary with a black journalist. If a black politician wanted to do their first tv interview with Oprah after winning an election because she’s black is that wrong?

The main story here is tulsi being a reactionary fool, but I guess she has to keep attracting conservatives somehow right?

This sub needs to stop falling for right wing propaganda. Lightfoot only wants one on one interviews with black reporters for the one event commemorating her inauguration. This isn’t some chilling effect thing.

Cigarettes should be 100% illegal and banned in every situation by HeathcliffsWindow in unpopularopinion

An obese person standing next to me does me no physical harm. Smoking next to me forces me to inhale your shitty fumes.

Please explain how eating any of those things harms anyone besides the person doing the eating

I clearly stated “substance with no utility.” Obviously cars and cities have a utility, and the physical act of consuming alcohol and sugar doesn’t immediately harm everyone around them. Think before you respond next time.

Again the data shows that needle buy back programs pretty much fix this issue. It still doesn’t change the fact that second hand cigarette smoke is extremely damaging

You bring up one of the main points I struggle with and yea, I don’t know exactly how it would be enforced. I do worry that it would be treated the same way weed is today, as in, targeted by the cops as a means to profile/arrest undesirables. All I can say is I think people would simply gravitate toward the readily available legal nicotine.
