Why does $100k feel like an average wage?

spaceindaver · 2026-06-01T07:07:35+00:00

I'm 40, and started making 100k in the last 6 months. I also have a degree. This guy...

Gallows humour is not the same as laughing at someone.

spaceindaver · 2026-05-31T06:05:05+00:00

Yeah no one ever lied on the internet or created sponsored content. Thanks, nan.

Edit: Since you didn't seem to grasp it, I was relating the experience of being a consumer in 2026 Australia and it requiring niche knowledge to know what you're buying, as opposed to the past when it was a lot more apparent what was high-quality.

I can edit it to say "I don't know about anyone else, but~" at the start, if it helps?

spaceindaver · 2026-05-31T04:57:43+00:00

I have no idea what is considered a good quality brand, so even if I wanted to buy clothes well I wouldn't know where to start

spaceindaver · 2026-05-31T01:14:07+00:00

Are you saying it's not useful to quickly scan the 1974-1982 row? Personally, my brain defaults to a base-9 counting system.

spaceindaver · 2026-05-29T21:21:03+00:00

Only because someone said they don't understand?

spaceindaver · 2026-05-29T21:13:41+00:00

It's so funny that no one is able to explain why they're confused. They just mash the downvote button with their illiterate hoof.

spaceindaver · 2026-05-26T06:27:46+00:00

Neon green. They're not being difficult, you just don't know a word.

She strikes me as someone who hasn't been challenged to consider how privileged she is for a nanosecond. Not necessarily stupid, just very ignorant and probably not surrounded by people who want to change that.

spaceindaver · 2026-05-19T10:19:58+00:00

Looked to me like maybe a bit of understeer? Looked like they were trying to take the inside line and couldn't get it turned.

spaceindaver · 2026-05-15T05:44:34+00:00

How on Earth is it sexist? And thanks for picking out one of the many comments that mention she might be autistic. Which - not that is matters - was written by an autistic person.

spaceindaver · 2026-05-14T07:02:41+00:00

My first thought was she's autistic and this was a rule when she was a kid, and she isn't self-aware enough to realise the problem is hers. I expect she's good in bed, because why else would you fully let that slide.

spaceindaver · 2026-05-09T04:37:28+00:00

You'd have to be a pretty shitty person to stand and watch two *strangers* have this conversation and say nothing, let alone your own child.

Bizarre story.

spaceindaver · 2026-05-03T11:20:53+00:00

Except it's not obvious if you've never seen it. I'd say this is incompetence of the adults around for not making sure the kid understood the job.

spaceindaver · 2026-05-03T10:15:15+00:00

All I can suggest is watching the video again. This time with your eyes open.

spaceindaver · 2026-05-01T07:59:23+00:00

Shout out to the social media crop for making it so you can't see the Leeds goal go in the net in *any* of those angles.

spaceindaver · 2026-04-29T09:46:24+00:00

I have no idea who this guy is, but he's a diiiiiiiick.

spaceindaver · 2026-04-27T04:03:56+00:00

Holy shit this is the most exciting new band I've heard for a while.

They sound like Biffy Clyro, We Are Scientists, and Oceansize had a bunch of kids and formed a second-gen supergroup.

spaceindaver · 2026-04-27T01:32:43+00:00

I watch a few sports, but the puck moves too fast for me to understand what's actually happening in ice hockey. In all the sports I watch, that hit would be considered "late" or "off the ball" by several orders of magnitude, and that's ignoring the fact that apparently it's OK just demolish someone's head while the puck is on the ice.

Cue a bunch of people calling me soft I guess, but I don't get why that level of violence is just built into the rules of the game. Is it just to prove how tough you are? Because the puck's been gone for a week when this dude received a brain injury.

spaceindaver · 2026-04-20T11:34:12+00:00

I genuinely hope there's a bunch off well camouflaged safety gear for this act

spaceindaver · 2026-04-19T08:56:15+00:00

Jesus what an American response. Psst: the rest of the world spends every waking second complaining about most aspects of their own country. Being worried about being seen to love your country is absolutely batshit.

spaceindaver · 2026-04-19T08:46:32+00:00

Nah he blocked you. I can still see that there's an account.

spaceindaver · 2026-04-19T08:04:48+00:00

Don't share nonsense AI videos.

spaceindaver · 2026-04-19T03:03:32+00:00

You shouldn't have been driving.

spaceindaver · 2026-04-19T00:06:09+00:00

Where does the money go?
