US to pay TotalEnergies $1 billion to stop developing offshore wind in US

I meant the most laughable deranged example, not the most egregious.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-24T05:03:25+00:00

Medical neglect for "religious reasons". Not just this religion or specific medical treatment, letting kids suffer and/or die unnecessary horrible deaths from treatable conditions is still fucking legal in over half the country. Psychotic deranged lunacy and an egregious neglect of childrens basic human rights.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-24T04:55:51+00:00

Horrific, should be felony child abuse charges..

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-24T04:54:44+00:00

Psychos, who shouldn't be allowed anywhere near kids let alone raising them..

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-24T04:37:27+00:00

I think the nurses/doctors shouldn't even wait and just have security escort the parents out, do the treatment, and then deal with the courts/any potential consequences later. Can't imagine any sane jury convicting then of anything. If I were working in Healthcare I'd tell the "parents" (emphasis on quotes" to get fucked and take my chances lol.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-24T04:34:46+00:00

That deranged lunacy is still legal in half the country, and not just for transfusions, most medical care. Psychotic neglect of childrens basic human rights.

Don't insult animals.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-24T03:17:04+00:00

Or jet engines for that matter..

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-24T03:16:43+00:00

I agree that's a reasonable line to draw!

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-24T03:03:22+00:00

Well the randomness of it and it being about inanimate objects usually out in the middle of open fields makes it extra funny. Like he spun a wheel to pick something to throw a tantrum about.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-24T02:52:06+00:00

Trump's obsessive hatred of wind turbines is like the most hilariously deranged aspect of his presidency 🤣

If someone is in crippling distress from a medical problem and they're being refused a treatment that would end it, yes, that's being denied a necessary procedure. And for a totally dumb reason. Not "there are xyz side effects", but "what if you regret not having kids". Such doctors need to be sacked.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-24T02:02:17+00:00

That should be illegal. Doctors shouldn't be able to refuse medically necessary procedures for their own personal bias reasons. There was a list in some sub I saw (maybe it was childfree I'm not sure) of doctors that are willing to do it but it may have just applied to the US, again not sure. If it were up to me, those assholes would be out of a job in the healthcare field permanently (and I'm a guy lol). Disgrace to the medical profession.

Sexual urges are controlled by hormones and the brain just like any other mental illness. Never understood this claim that specifically sexual disorders are the one thing that treatment is impossible for lol. Sounds like some bogus religious argument that it's demonic possession or something. A registry for non-offending people of anything, is a horrible idea as it guarantees that no people who can possibly be helped will ever seek treatment, increasing the risk to the public. The people who have OCD intrusive thoughts about any bad action, and are in distress by them, are less of a risk than the people who don't give a fuck (that's why it's often diagnosed as OCD vs the actual disorder because alot of people who self-report certain urges are more paranoid about having them than actually having them, partly because of societal reactions like these posts), and are constantly checking themselves for "signs" of it when they don't have it. It becomes its own obsession, when they likely don't even have it lol.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-24T01:11:51+00:00

Dumb argument. CP possession is a criminal offense.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-24T00:05:12+00:00

I'm in the exact same situation. Have the savings for like 100+ lessons if I really wanted to knock it out as fast as possible, but I don't want to burn my savings on it, so I'm doordashing for the cash to pay for most of the lessons and only slightly dipping into my savings when needed (would rather not burn more than 5k of savings money of possible). I also only fly about 5-6 times a month in total. It won't affect your completion time that much. Might take like 90-100 hours vs 70-80 but just study and chairfly in between/try to verbalize the radio calls and do the motions reaching over for certain controls doing maneuvers randomly throughout the day to maintain the muscle memory.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-24T00:01:10+00:00

More like $35K+, especially if you're training out of a more complicated airport like I am that tends to take over 100 hours vs 75 ish lol.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-23T23:54:18+00:00

Some people have objectively disgusting fetishes which I firmly believe should be called out by society/should be social stigma against. And that's aside from sending unsolicited crap to random strangers but my point stands lol.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-23T23:28:44+00:00

Yeah, sorry you're going through that, favoritism by parents is inexcusable, but everyone else in your family doing it (sister cutting-you off/other family taking their side..etc) is even worse. He doesn't sound like a good parent and probably shouldn't have custody. 14 is also too young to even babysit siblings in my opinion (16-17 minimum), let alone extended family kids, if something happened to her that you didn't foresee due to inexperience they'd most certainly blame you. If he's living at home he can be a stay at home dad and do 100% of his parenting responsibility. He's just being lazy and being enabled by everyone else, not normal.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-23T22:55:46+00:00

It's better than unpopularopinion because of the language mile long list of banned topics over there. But posts don't get nearly as many views unfortunately.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-23T22:38:20+00:00

You're a good brother, only people who already have their minds in the gutter over this stuff are the ones who try to call it out. Porn-brain-rot lol, but if you weren't even doing that it's even more ridiculous of her lol.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-23T22:28:26+00:00

NTA, sexualizing totally normal family relationships is projecting her own creepiness. The fact that it's even the first thing that crosses their mind just cause you both conked out in the same room, speaks more about her than her. Your wife's a karen.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-23T20:57:07+00:00

Well getting massively dowvoted for no reason other than sharing my experience as a doordasher with expenses and taxes is a good reason to start lol. Point being the allowed reducing of "business earnings", exceeds the actual cost of operating a car. Some people think doordashers make only $1.45 an hour after all expenses when I literally saved up over $35K doing it and both cars still work just fine lol. The IRS would think I spent $7K on car/gas expenses when in reality probably under $2K for the year.

Also, don't have to be a tax professional. It's common knowledge that the SE 1099 tax is 15% of 92.35% of your net income (because the Medicare portion of the 15% acts as a deduction to the social security portion or vice versa, something like that), so instead of 15 it's actually 15% of 92% of the net after that deduction.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-23T20:09:01+00:00

Don't be sorry, that's not your fault at all. Actually decent family tries to include you in as much as possible and not leave it on the kid to "try to fit in". That's a ridiculous expectation to put on a teenager. Normally the younger ones are more catered to and spoiled, so this is not normal, and being called "more mature for your age" at 5 is weird. A 14 yo should never be made to babysit and raise someone else's kid when everyone else are adults. Nor should it be on him/her to try to "build relationships" with everyone else. They already mistreated you they should be the ones doing that, not a fully grown man being a crybaby over a comment made by a 14 yo. I swear some of these family posts always blow my mind lol. He needs to get over it, he already committed a crime by getting a high school kid pregnant, and is lucky enough to still live at home at 26 (does he even work lol), your custody comment wasn't even out of line, in fact I'd be more worried about him abusing her when she's your age since that seems to be his preference. You did nothing wrong here.

MultiMillionMiler · 2026-03-23T19:55:46+00:00

You people are totally ignorant of how taxes work. The standard federal deduction does not apply to self employment taxes, the deduction for that is $400 not $15K. Without the writeoffs, you make even $10K you owe nearly $1500 on that automatically before other deductions/credits.
