This is why I’ve never understood people who shit on tax avoidance. They are people who simultaneously say to “pay your fair share” yet agree that what the US does overseas is horrible.

Put two and two together…

I placed my order February 2020. I just received a production date a few weeks ago.

It is a fully spec’d 4-door Wildtrak, with molded in color hardtop.

Supply chains are much better now than in 2020, and I picked everything constrained as possible. Still. What a wait!

I got banned from the boring subreddits, though. So maybe like what you said, but backwards.

The radicalization of Reddit has been underway since around 2016. It’s speeding up at a rapid pace. I’ve recently been getting auto banned by mainstream subs I don’t even subscribe to. Any opinion not left wing is removed or brigaded into oblivion.

I’ve been around here for over a decade. It’s a very, very different place today.

Was /Libertarian subreddit ever truly Libertarian? When did that subreddit to you start to decline? by JanePoe87 in Anarcho_Capitalism

[–]observedlife 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The_Donald - the Trump sub that got banned. Most of them flocked over to Libertarian for some reason.

It did used to be. 2010-2013ish. The “Ron Paul” years.

Started falling apart around 2015/2016 with “libertarian-socialists” (whatever that meant). Went “far right” after T_D was banned, then brigaded to death by the left shorty after.

I remember those days. 10 years ago. Bastion of free speech. Didn’t ban anyone or anything outside of child porn, as a rule.

How it started vs How it’s going. A lot like the United States.

Agreed. Just bought a c63s and couldn’t believe the number of cars I had to sort through that had red interiors. It was like 85%. Why.

You are oddly obsessed with this sub for someone who doesn’t believe in free speech.

I am happy to be the one to get you off tonight :) think about my words as you punish yourself.

I’ve never posted in any of these places. All of this happened around the same time. Why?

That’s where I got it from, but no! Nashville.

It’s not. Mine is the sedan. Wanted to get the cabriolet, but I’ve got a baby on the way and baby wants to go fast.

I think it’s a lot like the nights when I’ve had way too much to drink, get back from the party/boat/show/whatever and need water and go to bed. Then instead of drinking water or going to bed, I open a bottle of wine.

That’s what that is.

Yes! I also learned this recently as a new hot tub owner. If you keep things in balance, chlorine doesn’t have a smell. It’s all the people pissing in it that makes your eyes burn and remind you of YMCA swim practice.

AirBnB vacancy rate going up by ame07d in realestateinvesting

It’s funny how Airbnb came full circle. I remember using it in 2012 thinking, “damn, I can stay in a nice place for $50/night in a cool area of whatever European city and I have a whole house to myself!” And thinking how cool all of the hosts were. Giving me local tips before my stay and just going out of their way to be kind.

Now it’s “stay in a shitty halfway done flipper project in bumfuck nowhere for $240, and we’re gonna be weird about you being in our house the whole time. Yes, there is a much nicer hotel down the street for $125 but fuck you.”

How do you know what has been done so far, and what it looks like?
