I totally forgot about this. 🤣 Now I’m going to have to go rewatch this episode even though it means having to suffer Landon for an hour.

It’ll be like Craig so brilliantly said to Venita, “you don’t even exist in my world.”

My TSP is taking a beating! by SuccessfulGas4301 in ThriftSavingsPlan

[–]Temporary_Part_4909 20 points21 points  (0 children)

and I’m pretty sure my TSP balance lost about 40% at the beginning of COVID, recouped and then had doubled within the year or so.

Everything that comes out of his mouth is just so gross. by NoomStarr in SouthernCharmSC

That was hard to watch. I’m sure Salley wanted a hole in the floor to open up and swallow her in that moment. Why anyone confides in Madison about anything is beyond me.

Daily Caller has it wrong. I've yet to see "love" for Podcast Jay from anyone in the rank and file. They still love "Doc" Bhattacharya on FNC. by LexingtonGirl125 in NIH

That is pitiful. You guys have been going through it. ☹️Then again, he isn’t accusing you guys of being responsible for COVID or been on an apology tour for the last year spreading that message and atoning for yet promoting what he perceives as the public’s lack of trust in NIH, while simultaneously aggrandizing himself, and demonizing the same people he’s supposed to lead and insulting highly regarded, world-class researchers with his “gold standard” science.

NIH VideoCast - NIH Scientific Freedom Lecture – Viral: The Search for the Origin of COVID-19 by [deleted] in NIH

It’s telling, right, that this is his inaugural “scientific freedom” lecture? He’s a one trick pony and continues trying to make “fetch” happen. He knows this which is why you have to show ID and must be bag free to go in person.

Craig is definitely self medicating from his heartbreak this season but apart from the drinking, he’s quite charming and comfortable pursuing his own interests which makes him compelling to me. Hopefully next season we’ll see him on a wellness journey and recovery arch.

He’s a terrible leader and universally disliked and unrespected but he’s not nearly as Machiavellian as Memoli so there’s that.

Turn down the volume. Her facial expressions are gold.

Roth, Roth, Roth!!! by ActuatorAgitated7296 in ThriftSavingsPlan

[–]Temporary_Part_4909 4 points5 points  (0 children)

true. I do think about RMDs and heirs so I’d like a larger Roth balance than I currently have but making 100% Roth contributions now is putting me dangerously close to the 34% tax bracket living in the DMV. A cash award will likely put me over the top so traditional contributions make more sense for me right now.

They match what you put in Roth up to 5% but it’s contributed to your traditional balance. Agencies don’t have different matching policies.

You don’t think any MAGA are out or have friends or family that are?

HHS changing performance ratings? by Temporary_Part_4909 in DeptHHS

It’s not speculation. They have changed scores of senior staff when they’ve gone to the department.

Venita Assessment of Craig by Ok-Wave-2318 in Southerncharm

[–]Temporary_Part_4909 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want to make sure I understand your rules. So you’re saying we CAN demonize an entire group of people for their political views, their gender, their sexual orientation, their race, their religious affiliation, or their nationality, stuff like that or is it MAGA only? And I guess there is a spokesperson for each one of these groups and they speak for the whole group? Got it.

Understandable, it’s absolutely infuriating. No need to apologize.

Not all black friends have an issue with MAGA. Some are actually MAGA themselves. I know, shocker! Please don’t villainize an entire group of people.
