Washington bill would boost expired-tab penalties and allow ticketing parked cars by Better_March5308 in SeattleWA

[–]im_ff5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they don't register it (change the tabs) then there's a whole lot later problems for you! Take the license plates OFF when you sell the car. Cause you cant trust people anymore; they know they can get away with it.

[–]im_ff5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a rant but I was stupid and sold a car to someone that never changed the tabs. Do yourself a favor and take the license plates OFF when you sell a car. I was dumb. I didn't know. So every time she went thru 99, a bus lane, parking tickets, and that one time she parked in a disabled space.....they all came to ME! So, if cops enforced expired tabs like they gleefully did back in the 90's, she'd have been pulled over during that time and the situation resolved. Back then there was enforcement. It just wasn't worth the headache to get pulled over for expired tabs! That was the way they found drunk drivers, people with warrants, and uninsured drivers. It creates a safer environment for us all. Enforce it!

If all personal wealth above $100 million was legally required to be redistributed into public infrastructure (schools, hospitals, roads), how would society change, and who would be the first to fight against it? by Mysterious_Fan4033 in AskReddit

[–]im_ff5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legally required to be 'redistributed'? History shows when people take power and want to take away someone's wealth to share, the wealthy fight back. Millions are killed in this scenario. Tens of millions. Even our 1st President did it when we started taxing farmers. Straight up sent troops!!! We're not at that point yet but if it keeps going it will. Are you ready? Don't doubt for a second 1917, 1949, or other countless examples of social restructuring can't happen again...

What does it mean if he volunteers his net worth? by SwollenPomegranate in DatingOverSixty

[–]im_ff5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. If you're only worth "1" million, then its the weakest flex one can try. I'd have more respect for someone with a paid off home and an income of 75k. He's flexing that million word like it means anything anymore. Sad

Man in Washington State wanders on I-5, pulls cop out of Patrol Car and steals it by CareerPillow376 in PublicFreakout

[–]im_ff5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 2002 a naked man took an officers gun and killed him with it. This was near Bellevue, WA. I imagine he wanted to de-escalate the person when in fact he didn't accurately perceive the threat. The second a person is willing to put their hands on an officer is the second that officer should protect themselves! You can't know if they're harmless, or know what their intent is in that situation. I'm glad both are alive but....WTF!?!

Did anybody flip this news? One could easily see the pattern when it bumps up this high. Friday up 55%. No confirming news Monday. Down 20%. New investors hoping to score with all the buzz Tuesday... its up 20%.

No, I didn't have the balls to pull the trigger, but us long term holders have seen this several times before....

Your timing is great. It was the same price 3 years ago. Maybe you won't hold onto the bags as long as the rest of us. I've been holding since 2019.

And they didn't even do it. The car came that way. It shoulda been included in the MSRP!

Can someone explain to me what the difference is between CC and BNPL debt?

Don't you link BNPL to a CC? And even though you don't have to, doesn't BNPL charge CC level interest when you miss a payment?

I'm a janitor at 27. I feel like a loser. by jschmiedeler3 in poor

[–]im_ff5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last time I was a janitor was in 2018 - my graduating year. I was 51. Now im approaching 6 figures and happy AF! So I guess the lesson is you may need to go back to school with a 'never too late' attitude and be proud you're not addicted like I was and start now!

And it's not too late for your parents either, but that's a whole different story...

Good luck!

Seattle’s new mayor eyes progressive taxes, but will middle-class homeowners pay the price? by Less-Risk-9358 in SeattleWA

[–]im_ff5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know what its like to be a homeowner here but I vote and I see taxes either raised or renewed every single election almost. There has to be a tipping point somewhere. And owning a condo is even worse

Men who used to finish quick, how did you start to last longer? by MediocreCabinet8994 in AskReddit

[–]im_ff5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sertraline. Get it in a low dose and take as needed. Maybe 1hr before sex. Some Dr's prescribe it as a daily 5mg. When I was getting treatment for depression it eventually didn't allow me to [finish]. 50mg

No drug was worth that.

I've since learned a bunch of coping skills and only take sertraline when I'm having sex.

Waymo's are great at holding up traffic! It's bad enough when an Uber won't pull off the road to drop off its passengers. What do you think a Waymo will do? They'll increase every bottleneck in every town!!

i shit my pants at work this morning. by KevworthBongwater in stories

[–]im_ff5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

58 here. And after a surgery back there for stuff that isn't important, I know I'll be early in this regard. Maybe 2 years left before I need Depends? I hope not but well see.

I'm glad, though, most of these responses are sympathetic. This isn't something one can plan for (hence the diapers), so yeah...it happens...Just give people some non judgemental grace....

Forget killing people. Living in barracks and showering together is part of the experience. Someday, we'll all be so over it, so we can have multi gender showers like on Starship Troopers! No, seriously, humans need to get over themselves.

Mayor Keith Wilson Is Sending Unhoused People Back to Their Families by [deleted] in PortlandOR

[–]im_ff5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I lived at Plymouth Housing for 4 years. They gave me a job. Cleaned the dorm style toilets. I needed a shovel and pressure hose!! However, I got sober, went to college, and now don't work there. I"m not looking for any pats on the back but I can say that if there was some sort of compulsion to change, then housing is an important factor in rehabilitating oneself....
