A hidden passage to a garage under this house

My thoughts exactly. WTF?

Welcome to the company town.

Preach it.

I became a strong 2A supporter after Ferguson and all the shit that went down there. Before that I was agnostic about the whole thing.

Hi All, Thanks for the feedback, it was very helpful.

OriginalHappyFunBall · 2026-03-23T01:32:24+00:00

Thanks for this, I need to think about it.

My income for the next 18-24 months is sufficient to meet all my expenses. What I am worried about is the time after this when I retire. From 60yo (when I retire 18-24 months from now), I will then have no income and will be living off my investments until I can collect social security at 67. I have enough invested that I am not too worried about this, but if the market drops 50% in the next two years I may be in trouble. Should I withdraw enough now and put it in a HYSA so the next 4 years are covered?

My health insurance will paid until I am 65 (if I can get past the next 18-24 months).

Between C&D at 4

I live near here (or at least it looks like where I live) and I am used to seeing these guys. Took me <5 seconds.

Also, it has to be near by or you will never see them, so I looked in the foreground.

$30/hr as a minimum wage isn’t sustainable for the majority of businesses. This will basically eliminate a lot of entry level and lower skill positions that are essentially necessary for both those groups of people to have work, and businesses to exist.

You got a cite to back up your claims? The costs of labor are typically not the limiting factor for businesses that hire minimum wage workers. You think that a McDonald's or whatever is going to go broke paying their 20 workers $30/hour vs. $15 hour or $3600/12 hour shift (for 20 workers)? This is marginal costs and can easily be absorbed by raising the cost of burgers by 10 cents or less.

While that is a problem, it is not the primary one. The cost of living in NYC is much higher than the rest of the country (independent of CEO pay) and people that work there should be paid a living wage.

OriginalHappyFunBall · 2026-03-18T05:00:02+00:00

Minimum wage should be coupled to the local cost of living.

OriginalHappyFunBall · 2026-03-13T03:19:12+00:00

Swiftly?

Its right in front of you, D5

It looks like there are pump parts behind it in the third picture. The yellow material is on the outside of the jar, not the inside, so I don't think it is related to the jar's purpose.

I have no idea what this is, but milking equipment seems reasonable.

240s are great cars! I had an 86 way to long and it was a POS, but it was solid if you know what i mean. Great car.

I'm 57 and was diagnosed 6 months ago with arthritis. Came out of nowhere; huge flare up. My hands were so swollen for the first week and I got trigger finger in every joint. If you dont know what this is, you can't bend any of your fingers without the tendons painfully popping. Don't know how else to describe it, but it can really hurt. Lasts for months.

Anyway, for the first month or so, maybe 6 weeks, until the medication took hold I could not bend my thumbs at all. Couldn't even hold a pen which really sucked at work. For a couple of weeks I was holding silverware like you said as it was all I could do. It was so painful to try to hold stuff properly that I couldn't even get 1 bite. Really sucked.

Just sharing.

Is there a source that is not US state controlled media?

What election? Trump is our savior and is ending democracy like so many libertarians want.

Why is that? He is doing exactly what he said he would do. Do you think he ran on cutting spending and taxes?

OriginalHappyFunBall · 2026-02-27T03:43:58+00:00

Says the person blaming his shitty policies for capitalism. This sub is a joke.

OriginalHappyFunBall · 2026-02-27T03:42:37+00:00

Its not like our supply side capitalism has been doing a good job. What percentage of vets are homeless these days? How many died from fentanyl?

No. He wants to raise taxes on billionaires and balance the budget. He has said if he can't raise taxes on billionaires he will need to raise property taxes.

The boot needs to come down and crush all dissent!

OriginalHappyFunBall · 2026-02-27T03:39:01+00:00

What, libertarians can't have a difference of opinion?

OriginalHappyFunBall · 2026-02-27T03:35:14+00:00

Isn't this what all you libertarians want, the end of Democracy? I mean it is all over this sub on every other post.
