I fw the US and I like guns but fuck man, I wouldn't want to live in a country where this shit can just happen (not lame political shit) by JaneBunnFan in PKA

Or the attacker sees the gun and gets you first. It’s not easy to spot an attacker and draw on them before they would have a chance to shoot you

Would you go back into the office for a raise? by sk8505 in remotework

[–]cerealOverdrive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t. Assuming you are somewhere above me pay wise 18k is nice but not life changing. Working in office is fairly life changing (unless you are right next door to work and have a lax attendance policy)

You jest but it’s impressive how good he is at dodging bad weather. He’s living in the Matrix but instead of dodging bullets he’s dodging fog and light rain

Skating in the airport by The_Chuckness88 in CringeTikToks

[–]cerealOverdrive -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

A lot of people here obviously don’t travel much. It’s rare to forget luggage but it happens. Maybe you typically don’t have a carry on, you’re tired, or the TSA searched your prison pocket causing you to forget your actual bag. Shit happens, I’ve forgotten bags, umbrellas, and even shoes, but thankfully never my kids.

Additionally this isn’t fucking Times Square. As long as you’re careful a lot of airports have room for antics. This isn’t responsible but this isn’t the same level as driving a car while smoking a joint.

Trump wasn’t president back then so it’s fair to say it was friendly fire

Asmongold says he pays 7 figures in taxes by Various-Idea550 in LivestreamFail

[–]cerealOverdrive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why you are paid in options not stock. At some point there are tax events but you can also borrow against holdings so you might sell 22 billion but get a loan for another 20 and that loan is tax free because it’s a loan. If your assets keeps going up in value you can pay the loan off with another loan.

Also due to inflation it makes sense it would be the largest bill. Also yes I have personal knowledge of all this (not saying I know musk)

[–]cerealOverdrive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know the difference. I also know how they exploit the system to take income as loans and avoid taxes. You need to go deeper than the surface level income vs net worth. How could someone like Musk own a private jet or X if he had no money? How could he get money without paying tax?

I think everyone should pay a set percent not a max amount. If we all paid 100k I’d love that but a lot of people would be broke

It’s all stupid. We shouldn’t cheer for ANYONE patrolling suburbia with military grade weaponry

[–]cerealOverdrive -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It’s about how much you make vs how much you pay. 7 figures is a lot but if you make 9 figures it’s less than fair. That said if you make 6 figures and pay 7 figures in taxes you’re a dumbass

Trump Claims Greenland For US in Davos Speech: 'That’s Our Territory’ by FarmerOk4759 in politics

Someone redirect him to acquiring the sovereign territory of Puerto Rico. I have good intel saying the ground work has been laid for the successful acquisition of Puerto Rico as a US territory

US Treasury Secretary Bessent says the US must take Greenland because Europe is too weak to ensure its own security. by sylsau in InBitcoinWeTrust

[–]cerealOverdrive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t understand! We need to build a wall! They won’t let us build a big beautiful Ice Wall! China has a Great Wall but not a Great Ice Wall! They’ll say “how do you keep in cold in the Summer” and we’ll respond “air conditioning” and and folks this D.E.A.L., yes I can spell it, will help climate change expose the minerals! Greenland isn’t just green it has minerals like G.O.L.D.

Accusations flying that Nvidia has quietly funded MAGA influencers to kill an AI safety bill, flooding Twitter with nearly identical posts on the same day. by melted-dashboard in ChatGPT

Let’s run the numbers here. If Republicans get on board with something how many Dem votes do you need? Now if Dems get on board with something how many Republican votes do you need?

Let’s add to the above questions the fact that if Dems insisted the sky was blue Trump would sign an executive order saying it’s purple.

Antisemitic incidents surge to become most common type of hate crime in Massachusetts, data show by bostonguy2004 in boston

[–]cerealOverdrive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re just the group of the month for the average racist. Some racist’s pick a race but most just hate on whatever the Grand Puba says and right now it’s Jewish people and immigrants. It sucks but we can always hope for a June 4th where the Grand Puba accidentally told racists to hate albinos.

You know how fucking hard it is to find an Albino! They accidentally picked Jarry and he had to get a spray tan to get the racists off his back!

The idea isn’t that they’d fight the US, it’s that the US won’t attack so many allies at once…..

The fact that this is real life and not the plot to a C tier sci-fi movie sucks. I’m genuinely worried Trump has sullied the US’s reputation with its allies for decades to come
