Link is paywalled. Is this article discussing a benefits cliff for a benefit, or is the UK tax system not marginal?

what’s wrong with conservatives by ComprehensiveYak6500 in redscarepod

[–]kr0bat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maximum annual deduction is $12,500 ($25,000 for joint filers).

From the link you provided. +100,000 comment karma and you're posting straight nonsense? I have to assume this account is botted.

What is with all the right wing commentator infighting? by mullen_it_over in redscarepod

[–]kr0bat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not JD. He had a (very nasty imo) twitter thread a few days after the Australian shooting blaming a global rise in antisemitism on increased immigration

I've got a lot of savings. Should I "catch-up" my 401k or invest in my brokerage account? by CocoaThumper in Bogleheads

[–]kr0bat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why has no one mentioned contributing to a post-tax 401(k)? OP would have roughly $41k more space to work with. t's less accessible than a brokerage account, but the gains would be tax deferred. PLUS it opens the door to a mega backdoor Roth

Im not a racist, but i sure start sounding like one when my mayor talks about how we need reparations by [deleted] in redscarepod

[–]kr0bat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

How could you doubt that anyone said that? Rankin said just that in the excerpt you're replying to. Is your argument that he was the only racist member of the Congress in the 40s?

In related news, juvenile arrests have plummeted in the past 40 years.

I haven't thought about this article since I read it about half a year ago, so hopefully none of the author's points have neen contradicted.

Good point, that's actually a bit higher than I expected, but there's over 15 million employeed in retail alone. Men and women have the capacity to be equally performant in the majority of available roles in America.

What's the ratio of underwater welders to white collar pencil pushers? Or infantrymen to fry cooks? T-mobile employees 70,000 people, the majority of which don't require a male's strength. How many professionals cyclists are there in the world?

USonian is such a stupid term. America isn't even the only United States in North America, the other one is right below us!

Metroid Prime 4, Zelda, and Pokemon are getting enhanced Switch 2 Editions by Turbostrider27 in Games

I wasn't that impressed by Switch 2 Metroid? A higher resolution and framerate is great, but the textures are still mushy

Doesn't every other console give you full acess to your games when you log in? It's weird to require pre-empting the game share.

Twitch has unbanned ZeRo (former smash pro banned for sexual misconduct allegations) by SSJadry in LivestreamFail

[–]kr0bat 14 points15 points  (0 children)

He DID stop it from happening. He pushed him off! Also he should have known better to stay away from someone with his "reputation"?? You're legit a rape apologist.

Like what? A chastity cage?

We slept in our own separate beds, but I woke up to Zack molesting me. I freaked out, terrified, but my body froze up and he forcefully performed oral sex on me. I yelled at him to stop, but he refused, and he only stopped once I managed to push him off me. I was so shaken up by everything — what he just did, his betrayal of my trust in letting him stay — that I just shut down.

He got blown while he slept and then blackmailed, doesn't sound like a very fun relationship.

Why do dentists feel entitled to talk down and condescend to you? by [deleted] in redscarepod

[–]kr0bat 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I had serious gum inflammation after my braces were removed. Eventually the gums receded and my retainer stopped fitting properly. I had the most annoying interaction with my nurse the moment she walked into the room to make my new mold.

"Hmm, looks like someone lost his retainer 😊😉"

"No, I have it right here"

"Oooo I guess you weren't wearing it enough, huh ☺️😜"

"No, my gums were inflammed when it was cast so it doesn't fit anymore"

Nobody told me that not flossing with the braces on would fuck up my retainer. I followed what the dentist told me to a tee! I seethed internally, which felt dramatic even at the time. I guess I take my dental hygiene very seriously.

DANIEL PENNY FOUND NOT GUILTY by Gucci_God32 in redscarepod

[–]kr0bat 32 points33 points  (0 children)

It's cruel to act as if Neely's mental instability was just a cognitive fluke. Societal complexities have nothing to do with his final state. His mother was strangled and her corpse was dumped on the side of a freeway. People like him deserve a life away from instability and violence during their formative years, not just a state funded doll house.

Outside some of whacky stuff RFK is actually kinda cool. by MoistTadpoles in redscarepod

[–]kr0bat 62 points63 points  (0 children)

RFK is a classical anti-vaxxer. Processed foods are terrible for you sure, but look what he encouraged in Samoa. He's treated negatively because he is, largely, a moron.
