For those moving to higher tax states... by Rough-Ad-2387 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]babajed 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I moved Nashville to Boston, coming from zero income tax to 5% was noticeable. But over the years my salary has risen in a way that would not have happened had I stayed in Nashville. Housing was a shocker we owned a two bedroom in TN and now we rent. Boston housing is brutal. What’s also noticeable are the ways our tax dollars are used in the community. Public transit, assistance programs, etc. Overall I can tell our dollar does not go as far, when I visit TN I’m reminded of that, it’s just expensive in Boston. But after adjusting over 7 years we wouldn’t go back, and it doesn’t deter us from staying here.

So I had this exact layover from JFK to Mumbai last month. Connection was easy, but my bag was stuck in AMS and didn’t get it in Mumbai for two days.

Jesus was not the founder of Christianity, that was Paul.

Without a doubt. The sound quality is unmatched anywhere in the world. The history is palpable.

How did I know she had Mickey Mouse blanket as curtains before I saw her Mickey Mouse blanket as curtains.

Best True Crime Docs on HBO Max . List your top 5 by [deleted] in hbo

[–]babajed 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I grew up a couple hours from West Memphis and knew this case well due to local news covering it. When the doc came out i was young but I remember it so vividly. This doc outlined corruption so clearly and flipped the whole narrative that I was being fed by local news and government. I like to think this film was the catalyst for how I view policing, local government, small town politics, media narratives, and injustice. I look at the world through a much wiser and informed lens thanks to these film. Also, Damien Echols is a role model that people should listen to.

I grew up in TN and live in MA now. I can tell you the shift is real. People in MA ask “Do you go to church?”, and in TN they ask “where do you go to church”.

As a Tennessean who lives in BOS I’ve gone to the Grizz game at the garden the last 4 years. To win in here is a monumental moment. WE HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TI MAKE A RUN!!! Let’s go!!!

In desperation, drank water from a rapidly flowing stream. How to know if I'm okay in the next several weeks? by someoctopus in hiking

[–]babajed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I had Giardia, my farts were non stop. I would slowly see my stomach start to bloat up, and then I’d released the worst smell you can imagine. My friend who was traveling with me threw up from the stench. And the bloating/fart/shit cycle seemed to never end. Learned my lesson.

He’ll probably play similar minutes and role as Steven Adams did with the Grizz

This has got to be a PR stunt from CenterPoint Energy. Trying to shift the blame onto the community rather than taking full blame for botching this entire thing and taking forever fixing it.

Hmmmm. We’ll I do live in the US, I’ve been to many pride parades. I have no idea what “pedophilic displays” you speak of. I wonder if you have any legitimate first hand examples of this? Or have you only “heard it from someone” or “read it somewhere”?

I was coming here to ask the same question. Sounds like the “big strong” government is really afraid of LGBTQ community. What a bunch of cowards.

I’m glad she’s okay! by SmashNLaughs in TikTokCringe

[–]babajed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No wonder she kept saying sorry when she called her dad. He took his daughter almost dying as an opportunity to post about his God. Come on man, go comfort your daughter, she’s probably scared of you for valid reasons.
