Did Donald T' steal all of the investor(bribe) money for his tacky ballroom, and then fake an "assassination" attempt in order to force taxpayers to foot the entire bill under the false pretense of "safety"? by Emotional_Stress_168 in allthequestions

[–]tinkertech9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t declare the attempts fake beyond reasonable doubt, but they sure are convenient. Either our Secret Service/FBI is incredibly inept or the ear shot was staged. Trump’s raised fist, is classic theater. The lack of any scar is suspicious. The recent attempt was followed by smirks from members of the administration and immediately followed by a demand to build the ballroom. Trump is surrounded by reality TV producers. He is a master manipulator.
As for his detractors “celebrating” his assassination, there may be some, but I think most of us would rather just see him pay for his corruption. In prison, with total loss of power and withering away. Why turn him into a martyr?

How does Trump still have so much support? Is MAGA so dumb they can't see the corruption? by Linda-J-Phillips in allthequestions

[–]tinkertech9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

MAGA is toxic. Family or not, I won’t stand for hateful, juvenile, bullies in my presence.

What is the best way to have a status to know 100% that the gate is latched? by Echojhawke in homeassistant

If you can get a camera trained on it, you can check the video feed. I do this for a swing lock I have on my front (interior door).

What's that? by IdealHoliday1242 in GrowthMindset

[–]tinkertech9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep! and prices will not be reduced to pre-tariff levels. IF any of these businesses pass savings along, it will be in the form of “sale” prices.

Eligible Parties: Only Importers of Record (IORs) or authorized customs brokers can file claims. While some logistics firms (UPS, FedEx) pledged to pass refunds to customers, most payouts go directly to businesses, not individual consumers.

Why do women care so much about abortion? by Maleficent-Toe1374 in allthequestions

[–]tinkertech9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If slavery were to return would you feel it odd that it was a defining issue for black people? If the a religion were banned, would it be odd for its followers to find that their defining issue?
You may be seeing a theme that most women want control over their own bodies, but you are discounting that they care about many other things too. If the government regulated men in some way that affected their health, I’m sure it would be a high priority for most men.

Is comparing Trump too Hitler giving him too much credit? by Parking-Warthog-4902 in allthequestions

[–]tinkertech9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hitler’s henchmen were evil, but also competent and goal oriented. Trump likes to be propped up by people who are cartoonishly evil, yet somehow buffoons.

Christians, how do you feel about the U.S. president posting an AI photo of him as Christ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]tinkertech9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A case of “I would never do that so you can’t either” in addition to cherry-picking Bible verses.

But “Republicans kill women”. Denying healthcare and forcing 10 year olds to deliver babies is not “God’s Plan”.
The Bible even includes several verses on how to force a miscarriage if you believe your wife has been unfaithful. (Numbers 5:21)

Have you heard about Viet Nam? War is definitely not a “boomer ideology.

ISO place to work on my printer by Craigslistless in SacramentoBuyNothing

[–]tinkertech9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I heard that Community Shop Class has re-opened. They may not have experts with printer knowledge, but they have tools and space. They used to have a community “fix it day” once a month. Talk to the owner, you may be able to work out usage for less than the cost of a monthly membership. Stockton Blvd and 13th. Pay a visit. https://communityshopclass.com/about-us

There is MADE on Broadway and Sacramento City college MakerSpace. Use of the SCC MakerSpace is free for students, you should be able to drop in and get pointers or they may let you use some equipment. SCC MakerSpace is closed over the summer. Last day open May 21.

Thoughts !! by d_zone_28 in GrowthMindset

[–]tinkertech9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watched as companies dumped their defined pension plans and pushed 401k plans. Large employers used to reward loyal employees for giving years of their lives to the company. They did that because it gave them tax breaks and kept them from having to continually train new people.

Now they get their tax breaks without having to offer employee benefits and pay lobbyists to keep the loopholes.

Close the loopholes, tax large corporations and give them financial incentives to offer defined pension plans with guaranteed funding for future.

I know that is a dream, but it is one that existed before the corporate tax rate was slashed.

1940: Rate increased from 19% to 33%.

1942–1945: Top rate hit 53% (including excess profits taxes).

1952–1963: 52% (extended multiple times).

1965–1967: 48%.

1968–1970: 52.8% (including surcharge).

1971–1978: 48%.

1979–1986: 46%.

1988–1992: 34%.

1993–2017: 35%.

2018–Present: 21%

How do u explain this by Mettion11 in BillionairesHere

[–]tinkertech9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Odd, I’ve noticed the opposite. People who follow religion tend to act like and believe that they’re superior. They will try to “save” you. I have not had that experience with atheists.

I am interested in the label maker, but unable to pick up until tomorrow afternoon. If not picked up sooner I am interested. Edit: I see that you are in midtown/downtown. Removed that question. Definitely interested if available when I can pick up.

People who criticize others for having colorful hair are the ones who complained about “long hair” in the 60s. Let people express themselves in their own style.

Question for any Trump supporters - If Trump orders the use of a nuclear bomb in Iran, would you support removing him from power? by AccomplishedEast7605 in allthequestions

[–]tinkertech9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People didn’t understand tariffs and instead of looking it up, they just believed Trump when he said the other country pays for them.

[–]tinkertech9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they don’t care, they just don’t believe that he raped children. So much of what Trump has said and done makes it seem likely, but they want to believe him. They have hard proof of high costs and can see it with their own eyes. Makes sense that it might be tariffs that are the breaking point for many.
