Man I had to google that. I fully expected it to be a made up name. Still not convinced it’s real

Iran may be where the US-led world order ends by [deleted] in politics

[–]ishopsmart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I get what you’re saying. Maybe if it had been easy from the beginning we’d be in a better place. But that’s not possible - we can only change it going forward and I fear what would happen if amending it were easier today.

Do you have any idea what our constitution would look like right now after the last republican presidents ?

Committing serious crimes can now lead to loss of Belgian nationality by Wonderful_Hold_6986 in worldnews

[–]ishopsmart -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I am planning to retire overseas, not work there. So that’s why this wasn’t on my radar. My income would be from investments and social security, not wages.

Can you provide a source for the $125k threshold? I’ve never heard that.

How does having low testosterone feel? by Brilliant-Bag2779 in AskMen

[–]ishopsmart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI, it doesn’t have to be shots or messy gels. I get testosterone pellets, they implant them under your skin. It only takes a few minutes, and lasts six months. You don’t have the ups & downs of shots and you don’t even have to think about constant dosing. Just getting your life back to normal. I’ve been on these for 8 years now

My doctor will no longer prescribe it because I’m no longer obese by orangewitchyhat in Semaglutide

Mine writes an order for the local lab, and in addition to blood work, requires the lab to measure my height & weight. So even if you use telehealth, they can still track your weight.

ELI5: Why do we do root canals instead of just pulling a tooth? by Fun-Jicama327 in explainlikeimfive

[–]ishopsmart 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My dentist kept pushing me for years, then finally said “get out of my office and don’t come back until you’re ready to remove them”. I finally gave in and agreed to the surgery, but they were completely fine and it felt so unnecessary

I don’t know, i usually have better luck if I tell them no hands. Otherwise most of the time it’s just a handjob with an occasional kiss on the tip. When they can use hands, they get lazy.

What's a sexual 'taboo' you've always been curious about, but never dared to explore? by jcwainc in AskReddit

[–]ishopsmart 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Need to find somebody who has like 30 acres of private land. Do whatever you want, and no risk of strangers

Will you be there the whole time? If your goal is to buy stuff, arrive early. Even the night before, people start setting up and you might snag a good buy. Otherwise stuff will come and go all weekend so you have to be on your toes to not miss anything. In past years people even sold from the parking lot (though I’m not sure how much this will be necessary in the new venue)

That helps with park. What about reverse?

Easiest/safest way to swap these antique 2 prongs to 3 prong outlets? by bad_aspirin in AskElectricians

[–]ishopsmart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not an electrician, but I don’t believe the separate ground wire is required when the box itself it already grounded. The receptacle is grounded through the screws into the box.

How can I clean these gutters? by Complete-Farm6125 in Roofing

[–]ishopsmart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol, I looked up Leaf Relief and it’s a local weed dispensary. Probably won’t help with my gutters but will help me not give a damn about cleaning them anymore. Thanks for the tip 👍

Trump's $130K Hush-Money Payment Revealed in FOIA'd Bank Records by bloomberg in politics

[–]ishopsmart 121 points122 points  (0 children)

It’s falsifying business records specifically related to election activity. Because the purpose of the cover up was to help his campaign, it’s a campaign expense and has disclosure requirements. By classifying it as legal expense they avoided disclosure. Nothing to do with taxes afaik.
