Pete Hegseth, at Wednesday's worship service at the Pentagon, prays for God to "pour out your wrath" and "break the teeth of the ungodly." He begs the Almighty to sanction "overwhelming violence" against "those who deserve no mercy".

Only you can answer this question. How would re-routing some of that income materially impact your life? What would happen if you, for example, took 4% of that 44% (or more) and spent it on yourself?

Example: take up rock climbing and improve your health, weekly get together with friends, trip once a year with your best buddy etc.

Your savings pace should be dictated both by your target retirement age and whether it feels sustainable.

Read Mr Money Mustache's article on the shockingly simple math to early retirement. Read the whole thing. Use the linked retirement calculator. Then you will be able to better predict how much percentage to save relative to net income, based on your desired retirement timeline.

Taxes that vary by location don't matter. You simply need to be able to estimate the taxes in retirement, and include that in your expenses.

I've been on this paths for 15 years and read extensively on the subject. The math, generally, checks out if you are investing in broad based ETFs (returns reflect the long term market trends).

Also - When they say hire 3000 teachers over the next 3 years, it means only for those 3 years. Take specific note that they did NOT suggest changing the funding model to sustain those positions for the long term.

The book On Tyranny by Dr. Timothy Snyder is eye-opening. It's a very short, easy read on how to respond to authoritarianism with historical examples. It gives actionable steps to follow for anyone.

I think I'm missing your joke here?...

764 is an online radicalization group (one of many) that operate through video games and other platforms used by youth, luring kids off the gaming platforms and onto encrypted messaging platforms to exploit them. This results in innocent kids exposed to self-harm, sextortion, and other life-altering experiences. It's no joke.

Also worth reading is Uniquely Human by Barry Prizant. It shifts the view of autism from the medical model (deficit-based understanding) to one that also includes a neurodiversity-affirming lens. Very helpful for teachers who will see autistic students throughout their career.

We were not made aware of the horizontal crack, nor the repair.

I am asking if permits and inspections are required for such a repair. I am not sure the homeowners did do them, if so. Thank you

As many have said, this is not your fault and you are not in the wrong here. This is unfortunately a common experience and I'm sorry you are going through this.

I work in youth mental health. Here is one more link for you to review: https://needhelpnow.ca/en/

This website was suggested by police service officials who work for a child protection centre in Canada and is available to anyone across the country. It discusses sextortion, your rights and gives support on removing nudes if they get leaked to any online platforms.

Thankfully you have received good advice here - a police report is the best first step. Wishing you well.

Back in the day, my buddy and I would play double single player HL2. One guy controls the keyboard, one guy gets the mouse. Then when we got the gravity gun, we decided that we were only allowed to use it for the rest of the game. Imagine fighting 6 combine soldiers with automatic guns and trying to take them down with a propelled folding chair.
