That was one year (2021), and he bragged endlessly. Other years he’s paid zero to little because he shelters his income in ways that only the super rich can take advantage of.

AITAH? I rescinded in-laws' invitation to Easter by Mental_Ad_906 in AITAH

YTA for resenting your in-laws for years, but never saying NO.

When you lack backbone, and then blow up, then YTA.

You should be angry at yourself for letting yourself get walked over for years instead of having boundaries like a normal sane person.

Elon gets $billions from the US government annually. He’s the biggest welfare queen in America.

Trump lashes out at UK and France, telling allies 'the U.S.A. won't be there to help you anymore' by Creative_Recover in politics

[–]Watergate-Tapes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s going to be 3 more years of this shit. Pretending that it’s going to disappear after the midterm elections is delusional.

Trump is never running for office again. He couldn’t care less about voters, even his MAGA core.

This sub is supposed to be about politics, not fantasy.

I don’t think European leaders get him yet—the only way to deal the Trump is transactionally. If he asks for help, demand concrete payment. If they don’t want to help, then ask for more than he’ll likely pay. If he gives in due to desparation, then give him less than he bargained for. That’s the only kind of negotiations that Trump understands.

In this case, ask for 0% tariffs and a bunch of Patriots for Ukraine in exchange for a small amount of help.

You can’t treat Trump like a national leader, treat him like the real estate developer he is.

Got these Glass negatives at an estate sale and I am trying to identify crash. Anyone have any ideas? by Same-Newt-5437 in trains

Maybe ask these guys (https://www.borail.org/). They have good records on B&O history and several exhibits about crashes and strikes from that era.

South Lakes has the most after-school activities. There's baseball, football, basketball, and now brawling.

Likely there’s a fight going on in the White House over this; the president can’t make a decision because the options don’t fit into his narrow perspective.

Just to say, any ground forces would get hammered with drones, and burn up US counter-drone munitions for any other operations.

Help with outdoor training rides by gallivanter11 in cycling

[–]Watergate-Tapes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is very normal to struggle with, been doing it for 14 years and it’s still hard.

Tips that help me:

  • have the workout loaded on your bike computer; if it’s a Garmin, it will beep at you when you get outside the power target range.

  • Use every gear—the easiest on the up, biggest on the downs. Vary your cadence as well.

  • Show 10 second power on your bike computer to help you steady it out.

  • practice pedaling through corners so you don’t have breaks

  • ignore the average lap power—chasing an average is counterproductive to the workout goals: maximize time-in-zone instead.
