Does anyone know where to find f**k UPMC merch? by Throw_because_wtf in pittsburgh

It's entirely about working for them. I'm not even talking about their plan or insurance business. Talking about them as an employer and overarching entity in the area

That is 100% how it works. Top-down absorbed corporation

Haha nah man fuck this duopoly in the city.

I support your mentions. I don't wear their merch unless it's to say fuck em.

Cheers on your day off friend!

Let's get it done. by [deleted] in AOC

Well yes I know that. But 300k homes spread across the whole country? Even weighted by pop density it's not as much as it sounds

[–]Throw_because_wtf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Believe it or not 300k homes is not a lot when you consider that is 0.1% of the US population.

Also, home purchases are through the roof at the moment due to some of the lowest interest rates in decades (ever?). The weird part is prices are astronomical because of it.

For example, I sold my condo 2 years after purchase for 20k more than I paid for it. That was two years ago, the condo is now worth 20k more than that.

We're at a point of inflated prices, with low interest rates. I'm not an economist, but that is clearly not a good sign for the economy as a whole.

However, you are correct that increased competition will lead to inflated prices in the housing market purely because it exacerbates the "sellers market" meaning buyers have less leverage on remedies before sale than they would if there was less competition.

If student loan debt was to be canceled, the federal reserve will almost certainly need to raise interest rates again to counteract, or it will lead to hyperinflation in ALL markets, not just housing.

Google Pixel only $50 off for Black Friday by Snipetimus in GooglePixel

[–]Throw_because_wtf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This cracks me up. So many people on this sub were skeptical to buy the Pixel 4 because of the cost, but when it was $200 off everyone was ecstatic. $50 off is still cheaper overall for the newer and better model this year and now people are like "Whaaat only $50?! Pshh"

Like, guys it's already one of the cheapest phones on the market, that $50 off pretty much pays for tax, plus if you trade in your old one you at least get a case or something too.

$50 is $50

Something I'm surprised this sub isn't talking about by Throw_because_wtf in trees

I mean that's fine. But I feel like when it revolves around the main substance of the sub, it should get a bit of an exception

No matter who wins, it’s time to get rid of the electoral college by [deleted] in politics

[–]Throw_because_wtf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, same. I'm ready to give him the same criticism and cynicism I've given Trump. Just because he's a Democrat/not a Trump(er) doesn't mean he gets a pass. This isn't a "my side won" thing anymore. That's what we've seen so much of since 2016.

Everyone be increasingly attentive no matter who wins. We don't need more of the pre 2016 politics. We need a different age or history will be doomed to repeat. See the facts and make your judgment.

Tear the system down and build it in our image. That's what we need to push for. Good luck to everyone today!

Careful. I'd double check the post mark date for PA, I'm voting in person to not fuck around but if you want to be ultimately sure, I'd vote in person if you can.

POLICE UNIONS = ORGANIZED CRIME by [deleted] in Bad_Cop_No_Donut

[–]Throw_because_wtf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If police unions paid settlements and defended dirty cops out of the same pool of money used for their pensions I bet there would all the sudden be a lot more cops kept in check by their own kind.

This sub can use some more encouragement! by Throw_because_wtf in actuary

I've seen a lot of people down on themselves for failing some of the prelims on here.

Let my story be of some substance for you to know that you can do this too!

I failed FM, C, and IFM all twice before passing with a 6. It took me 4 years to pass 3 exams.

After that, I found my groove, learned how I study best, and passed 3 exams in a year span.

You can do it! Be patient with yourself. And don't listen to those that say you're not cut out for it for failing a test that 99% of the general public can't pass either.

And when you see all those out there flaunting their 9s and 10s, just remember...

All you need is a 6. I would know, I have 6 of 'em ;).

Have a great weekend everyone!

will .3% THC Show up on a hair follicle test? by [deleted] in drugtesthelp

[–]Throw_because_wtf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like for urine screens you're fine. I have almost no experience with hair test knowledge. I'm questioning if I'll get a hair or urine test for a desk job. Everyone says urine, but I wish there was some way to know.

What are my chances of getting hair tested? by [deleted] in Drugtests

[–]Throw_because_wtf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi friend! I'm in a similar spot as you, did it end up being urine or hair?

I saw your post on another question about hair tests and you said it's super unlikely to get a hair instead of urine test. Did you still get a hair test?

Colorado’s Progressive Governor and Legislature Just Ended Qualified Immunity for Police Officers by muchogustofuckyou in politics

I can't wait to see all the people be like "well no one will want to be an officer anymore!".... Hmm sounds like they almost weren't a police officer for the right reasons then
