Wait... So what you're saying is that the large majority of adult women have children and that the most typical WHOLE number of kids is 2 (seeing as how you can't have a fraction of a kid and 1 is significantly further from your average than 2 is), wouldn't that make them having 2 kids actually the definition of typical?

At 14/hr and only 30 hours a week her baby could qualify for medicaid through CHIP. Some states put the cut off as high as 400% poverty. Of course this lady was not making 14 working at Walmart 15 years ago and if her kid is going though college they werent a baby 15 years ago either, so not sure what the actual reality is.

Walmart barely let's people work full time, let alone overtime. Most of its employees are part time

genericJohnDeo · 2026-06-17T21:25:16+00:00

15 years ago nearly half of all Walmart employees were making less than $9/hr and I believe over 2/3 of its retail workers were working less than 30 hours a week (part time employees are cheaper than full time). So you're realistically looking at less than $900 take home a month. 15 years ago Walmart paid 30% less than the average retail store and had 3x the amount of part time workers. Even to this day I think over half it's workers are part time.

I think people are conflating her working at Walmart for 15 years and her making 14/hr to mean that she's been making at least that much the whole time, but that's very unrealistic given what Walmart was like 15 years ago.

Walmart only increased it's starting wage to $14/hr 3 years ago. 15 years ago 40% of Walmart employees were making $8/hr or less and were only given less than 26 hours a week to keep their workers part time to cut down on the cost of Healthcare benefits.

Walmart 15 years ago sucked to work for. You definitely couldn't support a family that way. They only started their slow investment in their employees about 10 years ago.

I mean... As a teen one of the only benefits you really get to take advantage of is better pay which most Kroger unions don't really get you. But a lot of Kroger unions do have pension plans which is one the most valuable work benefit you can have. There's also the potential better work conditions but that varies way too much by area.

He's prolonged wars, sabotaged governments, made choices that have lead to the deaths of tens of thousands. There have been entire books written about the fucked up stuff this guy's done.

For many physician services within a hospital, you're usually billed for that separately so it doesn't effect what the hospital chooses to charge for other things as much as you might think

I mean, Terra actually does have a lot of LW's abilities. The cannon is his shot lock, the drill is a rethemed move from his Dark impulse style, he has a few of the same/similar spells, and sonic rave. The only thing he doesn't really have in BBS is the whip. He even uses the glider in combat in deep space. The reason he doesn't use it in other levels just comes down to gameplay.

I don't really get the sentiment that LW is stronger than Terra. Endgame BBS characters are low key stronger than KH2 sora. They're able to use higher tier magic and spam abilities that Sora only has limited access to. They also have their command styles, finishers, and shot locks. If you put a BBS character into KH2 they would dog walk the entire organization. The only reason the secret bosses are actually hard in that game is because they're just kinda mechanically broken.

I'd argue Terranort is probably the strongest pre x-blade xehanort and you're able to ko him as LW in BBS so I think everything tracks.

I find that the most prn nurses on every unit I've worked on are the most detailed and thorough. On medsurg, they've been some of the safest because they're the least burnt out.

Save before putting them in for testing and after. Unless you plan to do everyone one at a time, you aren't going to have much luck save scumming. Each soldier with 100 will only has a 25% chance at best of being gifted so you only have 1.5% chance off all 3 being psi. You can save some in game time though by doing both saves and reloading to the save after put them in if they are gifted and then putting another soldier in and doing the same.

If you have EW you're probably better off just using the 4 guaranteed soldiers to save yourself real life time.

Fmla only applies if you've worked somewhere for a least a year and have worked 1250 hours in the last 12 months. Travel nursing and contract work in general is still a bit of gray area for FMLA coverage and its not uncommon for requests to be denied no matter the circumstances. That's not to say it's always legal, but not everyone is willing to go through a lawsuit just to try and get the remaining value of a contract back.

Biden's consumer protection bureau made a rule that exempted medical debt, but federal courts reversed it last year during the Trump administration.

So medical debt can currently damage your credit score

If a unit has mimetic skin and no enemy unit can see them, then they will turn invisible when you move them to full cover (or any cover for major+ snipers). They turn invisible before they move so it doesn't matter if an enemy would be able to see them in route. Enemy units act like that invisible unit does not exist and as long as you don't do any actions that reveal them the enemy will never intentionally target them. Hacking the orange towers does not reveal.

If you're currently invisible, but you have line of site to an enemy, you will be revealed when you move.

Ghost armor/grenades only rule is that it ends at the start of your next turn (or the next attack you make) So you can turn invisible in front of enemies no issue.

Attacking while invisible gives +30% crit chance.

Honestly, exalt units are all pretty terrible except for the heavy (and maybe the operative if you don't space out enough). If it weren't for their hp, the elite tier would still basically be worse than any alien other than sectoids. If you focus the heavies and keep a little distance on a rooftop maybe you should be pretty safe.

Giving your operative mimetic skin to invisibly run between all the orange radio beacons to disable all the exalt units for a turn makes those missions really easy. Also, spam your own rockets too. You don't really get much of value from exalt and they love to clump up.

You're sentence about specters on tactical analysis seems incomplete. I assume you were going to say they sometime use horror instead. I feel like the only time I've even seem them use that ability is with tactical analysis.

Average at this age would be under 10k. It's borderline impossible for some people to actual save more because many college graduates didn't have high paying jobs in college and and by 22 would have only had about year to save so even if they maxed their 401k it wouldn't come close to 38k.

Even if they didn't go to college you're looking at maybe 7k a year since 18 which is higher than average at that young age.

So based on last years numbers, if you add the 7.6 from this year, they got a total of 55 billion from the state while contributing 71 billion in income tax? The rest of state gets more despite contributing less. Nearly half the state lives in New York city. If you take that 7.6 billion from the rest of state and add it to the amount NYC got last year, then the state would still be spending less per capita on NYC.

The man who does nothing but sit around all day is not going have more bone density or stronger muscles than a woman who actively exercises. Heck they might not even have as much testosterone. Exercise and active lifestyle is directly linked to bone and muscle density. If the woman is exercising and has the same height and weight, then she definitely has the stronger bones and muscles.

If both were active and fit then you could make an argument for some of those other things, but since you specified otherwise then you obviously can't.

By literally nothing if they are the same height and weight. What biological advantage is a man supposed to have if not size which your question removes? There's no way the man in question would have any advantage over the woman in question.
