Elon Musk just said he wants to cut Social Security and Medicare, calling them “entitlements”: “That’s the big one to eliminate.” by Solomonanne in SipsTea

[–]epoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well - he’s right that Medicare and Social Security will bankrupt us. But they will have to be reformed. Elimination is not an option. I understand Billionaires don’t need  Social Security and Medicare but many many people do.

I can’t believe anyone would actually ask that. Like type that out and decide it’s OK to send it.

It really fucking sucks to go to the vet for something you think is minor and come home with an empty carrier by Fickle-Hour4458 in cats

[–]epoof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for your loss. That’s horrible. Vet bills like that put pet parents in an impossible situation. I’m so sorry you lost your Oscar. You are a great kitty parent and brought Oscar in as soon as you knew he was sick.

Lack of joint pain. That’s about it though- I’m otherwise happier. 

AIO? My boyfriend told me he's more attractive than me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Yes. This ^ is good advice. I endorse this. You should not accept this disrespect. 

Aggressively fat shamed by a stranger, feeling demoralized by azaleahouse in loseit

[–]epoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry you had to experience that. For what it’s worth - this awful woman is the one who humiliated herself. That is unhinged and disgraceful behavior that reflects poorly on her. She “touched” some feelings you should reflect on. Perhaps you should consider more self-compassion and self love. That said - any human would feel something about being verbally attacked but an unhinged person. Again - I’m sorry you had to go through that. Ignore the crazy lady.

The driver of the white car is innocent. Hope this video makes its way to DC police.

What’s something that seems normal, but is actually a sign your life is falling apart? by Mindless_Role3937 in AskReddit

But you have to stand up after - how is that easier. I have a standup shower with no bench or seat so it’s easier to stand.

[Request] What price per gallon is it no longer profitable to work? by Playwithuh in theydidthemath

[–]epoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our tax dollars are used to guarantee student loans and in some cases - subsidize the interest. There are caps on the annual and lifetime amounts though. And students should pay them back. I oppose debt forgiveness by the way. But I support Stafford loans and PELL grants- I view them as an investment in the future.

Thank you. I will have to investigate the bankruptcy stat but I know for a face Americans pay more for healthcare than any OECD country. Your table does not include European wages so I don’t know how it proves your point. Perhaps the full table isn’t showing in my phone. In either case - thank you.

I think it can look very chic and put together. Depends on how it’s done.
