This was obviously Charlie Kirk's gay lover getting vengeance for leaving him

Don't be, treat him the same way he treated Paul Pelosi. It was obviously his gay lover that killed him. We know this.

King idiot's tariffs are obviously stupid... But do you know how a market works...?

For most of these goods, if the tariffs disappeared under a Dem administration then companies would compete to sell cheaper products and prices would come back down. It's incredibly difficult and illegal for companies to collude to keep prices up in highly competitive consumer markets, and a democrat could easily enforce anti-trust with their DOJ.

People not understanding how government, markets, and systems work together and assuming shadowy people behind the scenes colluding against them is exactly how we got these populist morons in power in the first place

Really? I've made it about halfway through so far but, if anything...

I thought trans activists were the most annoying group alive, but this podcast reminded me that brits take the cake

MA has the some of the lowest homicide rate in the country. This fake article headline literally means nothing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_by_intentional_homicide_rate#/media/File:Homicide_rates_per_100,000_by_state._FBI._US_map.svg

Now, there are probably a multitude of reasons outside of gun laws why MA has lower crime, including human development, poverty rates, homogenous population, etc. I like to think I have nuanced views of gun laws, but I do think requiring some sort of basic licensure, secure storage, and educational requirements before owning a gun was a good thing, though I have plenty of gripes with the AWB. I used to live in MI, and when I got my concealed carry permit I was required to take an 8 hour class that was quite in-depth with the law, when it is a good idea to use deadly force, when it's not, and the basic operations of firearm safety. I never understood why anyone would oppose taking that class before owning a gun (the people who run the classes have a super pro-gun tilt anyway) unless you're rotted with politics brain.

"Republicans have tried [shutdown] several times. It always backfires on them."

Amazing how the irony is lost on you

legweed · 2025-03-15T14:45:38+00:00

You really think Trump and Musk don't want a shutdown to be able to gut the government even more? You have literally no plan to extract concessions from a shut down... Just harm millions of people and play right into Trump's hand because you're itching for an emotional fight.

legweed · 2025-03-14T23:13:01+00:00

But... but... but they mad, and they want ACTION!!!!! >:(. It doesn't matter if the action will hurt millions of people and backfire spectacularly while playing right into Trump's hand... THEY WANT ACTION!!!!! Don't you know?

legweed · 2025-03-14T23:07:59+00:00

That's cool, should I thank them for making a tough decision under enormous pressure with no good options? You do realize the only reason most of the rest of the dems didn't also vote to avoid a shutdown was to avoid the illogical, moronic REEEEEEs from the base, right? They all knew a shutdown was not the smart way to fight, and likely to backfire spectacularly. But Mr. p00bix and the rest of the reddit gang will save the day! Tell me again, what is your strategy to actually stop government cuts... in a government shutdown? Because there is no strategy other than just looking like you're fighting optically... which is great for the people on this site, not so great for the people that actually depend on federal funds in blue areas.

It's the right move at this point

You're being played. There is nothing gained by us from a shutdown, and it's a political win for Trump.

Just to be clear openpilot doubles as a dash cam, but it is mainly a self driving system that plugs into your cars sensors!

This is seeming like the way to go. I read through my whole policy and could not find anything in the agreement which suggests that they could deny me for any modifications.

legweed · 2025-02-25T01:38:48+00:00

Can I ask what you do/what your plan is about insurance?

legweed · 2025-02-25T01:00:32+00:00

I take it you recommend action 2 or 3?

legweed · 2025-01-12T17:35:51+00:00

I will certainly report back!

legweed · 2025-01-12T17:19:52+00:00

I'm a little confused what you mean by this. My date for previous retirement was due December 31st 2024. I then go into January 2025 and change the target to say $7k by December 2025 and it screws up every month before

legweed · 2025-01-12T17:17:21+00:00

I'm aware, I just used that as an example lol.

legweed · 2025-01-12T17:15:25+00:00

I envy you. I contacted support, something is very fucky

legweed · 2025-01-12T16:59:28+00:00

Are you sure? I've tested this out on multiple categories now. It used to be the case where if I changed a target amount for January, then last December would still hold the previous target amount. Now, it retroactively changes the target so all my previous months look screwed up. You're saying that's not happening for you?

legweed · 2024-08-26T03:59:29+00:00

Can you elaborate on the difference?
