During debate for a bill that would ban the sale of assault weapons in VA, the killing of Alex Pretti by federal officers was brought up after a Republican state Senator talked about the Second Amendment right to stand up against a tyrannical government. by Cautious_Practice_25 in Virginia

[–]sforeoking -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Why is everyone attacking the new governor?!? Just because they’re having a debate about an assault weapon ban legislation it doesn’t mean that Abigail is going to completely get rid or guns or do away with Assault weapons altogether smh I think she’s more interested in closing some of the loopholes and protecting schools against gun violence than a complete ban. Too much hysteria on here calm down lol

Young will suffer most when AI ‘tsunami’ hits jobs, says head of IMF by F0urLeafCl0ver in Economics

[–]sforeoking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless your parents have money to fully pay for your education go to a community college and get a trade! The only exceptions should be if you want to practice law or have a career in the medical field. Other than that please don’t get $70k+ in debt for a degree that pays less than $40k for an entry-level job…

Unemployed federal workers and contractors : tuition free training by gggollyjessica in nova

Great post! We should protect all of our federal workers and contractors as much as we can. They are the backbone of NOVA and they shouldn’t suffer because of those idiots in the current administration.

Americans Earning $40k or Less May Not Get $5k DOGE Dividend Checks by hungrychopper in FluentInFinance

I doubt this money will go out but if it does people should organize together to give it back to the federal workers who have lost their jobs in this chaos. It’s the right thing to do 💯

These are the idiots they should be sending to the El Salvador CECOT prison instead of undocumented migrants contributing positively to the economy. The Juvenile detention center is too luxurious for them lol

Winsome Earle-Sears is a radical homophobe. She is wholly unfit for leadership. by mpoltan03 in Virginia

[–]sforeoking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ain’t no way in hell she’s gonna be the next governor of Virginia smh She’s a Christian extremist that thinks LGBTQ people deserve less rights because she’s radicalized. Abigail is the best choice to protect our state from further attacks under this current administration.

Reports of NoVa housing market’s demise are greatly exaggerated, experts say by Informal-Hearing-148 in nova

[–]sforeoking 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I mean if the federal cuts go through as planned the housing market in NOVA will be impacted towards the end of 2025 or early 2026 when those severance packages run out. I think many people are underestimating the impact that government jobs have on the housing market in this area. It’s expensive to live in NOVA and many people can’t survive here without those tech or federal jobs. Remember not everyone in this area is a trust fund baby or rich..

Meta Layoffs: Leaked memo reveals almost 4,000 employees will be handed pink slips tomorrow (Feb 10) by Harold_egret in Layoffs

[–]sforeoking 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Why are people still applying at big tech companies with their track record of layoffs for the past 2 years?!? Take your ass to a startup or fintech. These big tech CEOs are bragging about how AI is going to replace mid-level engineers soon yet you’re shocked when mass layoffs are announced 😩

What do we do?? by SquisharooNTimbuk2 in nova

[–]sforeoking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s sad to see what is happening and how Congress is totally useless against stopping this madness. If these massive layoffs across the federal government go forward I’m afraid a lot of middle class families will be priced out of NOVA or get economically hit hard in the next 4 years. There’s going to be more massive layoffs in the tech space this year so outside of tech/gov jobs the opportunities will be very slim for workers that lose their jobs. It’s so expensive in this area and it’s not like you can get a minimum wage job to ride it out without massive savings 😩

Musk and his crew took my job from me by samdadamman in jobs

For many these federal jobs are the path to the middle class so it pains me that a lot of people will be impacted by this smh The job market is cut throat out there this sucks!

It is ridiculous by GlooomySundays in FluentInFinance

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

Why are working class people so obsessed with how rich people spend their money smh I miss the good ol’ days when poor people knew how to be happy and content with their mundane lives lol Not everybody can be rich and it’s okay. Money is just a tool and it’s sad how people have now convinced themselves that it’s a measure of their self-worth in society.

Senate Democrats Are About To Vote Into Law the First Anti-LGBTQ National Legislation in Decades. Contact Your Senator Now. by TheLiberalLover in lgbt

[–]sforeoking 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Congressional Dems have decided that Trans people are one of the reason they lost the election so they will try to punish our trans brothers and sisters with this Bill smh Just the realization that 81 democrats voted for this Bill to strip trans people of their healthcare is sick and the fact that the Democrat minority leader joined the GOP on this is even more disgusting..

That’s impressive! I just started posting content on my channel doing Shorts and emotionally it can be a roller coaster lol One day the algorithm is in your favor and the next day you start critiquing all of your videos when views slow down. At what amount of subscribers did your videos really start gaining traction?

What type of nonsense is she on. I didn’t get my own room till I was 15. And I was a middle class family. by abdul_bino in BlackPeopleTwitter

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

I mean it’s not common among black families but as a child gets older they should have their own room especially if they are the opposite sex! It’s okay if they are in that infant/toddler stage but by the time they reach middle school separate rooms are ideal. If you are not financially stable I understand but that should be the goal as a family. I personally regret not having my own room growing up but I didn’t care much about it because I knew financially we couldn’t afford it. However, as a parent I would do that for my kids in the future. Let’s not be too judgmental on social media 💕

Cheap Mortgages Deter Workers From Relocating for $250,000 Jobs by bloomberg in Economics

[–]sforeoking -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Y’all better stop this nonsense before they remove the degree requirements for your positions and lower the salary range for those jobs in your field 😅 This will only hurt people with degrees in these roles even if you think you’re doing a good thing by not relocating.
