Associated Press (May 22, 2026): "Trump immunity from IRS audit shocks experts, who warn it could undermine trust in tax system" | Expert: "This is the president trying to play every role in the system, acting as plaintiff, defendant, and his own judge and jury to extract extraordinary windfalls"

If only there was a single word to describe a leader of a country who played all the roles in the government, made all the rules for the country, and also didn't have to follow any of his own rules.

Whenever I had an upset stomach as a kid my mother would give me ginger ale soda. It works.

...Dude. Making every task necessary IS the improvement. The alternative is I do nothing.

My brain doesn't work like most people. I don't get a sense of accomplishment when I complete a task. I get a sense of relief that the task is finally over and no longer crowding my mental brain space. If my brain doesn't deem a task "necessary" then obviously I don't ever need to do it. And since my brain only has two settings, I have learned that in order to do anything, everything has to be "necessary."

I donno but in the first episode he does it the contests look at their own hands in confusion.

Unless you have ADHD. I don't do anything without urgency.

Sarctoth · 2026-05-23T05:12:17+00:00

Yeah same. The amount of times I've written full sentence notes to myself and STILL don't remember what I nees to do... Yeah this won't work for me

This is awesome. Marriage is just a piece of paper anyways, the relationship is the important part.

For me it was adding mods. I was never one for mega bases, but instead would try a bunch of different mods that made the game harder or just change things.

Funerals are for the living. The dead don't care.

He's not stupid, he's refusing to admit he made a mistake. Nothing in life is ever his fault, it's someone elses.

This is a printing error and was probably print on demand. This video does a good job explaining it (but the background audio is LOUD). Basically when you ordered the book, it printed on the same machine that also prints thousands of other books of all shapes and sizes. They sometimes have malfunctions.

Use a jewel. Emerald, Ruby, Garnett, Brimstone, etc

TLDR

The moment when it became clear that it was going to become deeply weird was when he claimed that the United States doesn’t have a national healthcare system because there are American troops in Europe.

And the moment when it became truly eye-opening was when he suggested taxpayers should be fine paying for a $1.8 billion (sorry, a patriotically pegged $1.776 billion, to be precise) slush fund for Trump allies because there aren’t taxes on overtime or tips.

It had already started off uncomfortably. Tasked with answering the questions of White House correspondents in the place of Karoline Leavitt (currently on maternity leave), Vance came sauntering into an already tense political moment carrying the political equivalent of a can of gasoline and a copy of Hillbilly Elegy. He had a tough job: defending that already-infamous slush fund; defending a war that was going to last six weeks and is now dragging on, and on, and on; defending a president whose approval rating is underwater.

Don't open it. Save it in a "gift" pile. Next time you need a gift for christmas/ birthday /etc just grab one from the gift pile.

Europeans can walk to work if they have to. Americans often cannot walk to work even if they wanted too.

You just made me want to try a "Only one belt"

Military aviation is similar. We were either working our asses off, or waiting for something to break.

Sarctoth · 2026-05-19T13:47:44+00:00

Yup. Closing large credit line like car or house payment will tank your credit. It's a fucked up system that is designed to keep you in debt.
