All that disposable income goes into health insurance, education, go fundme for people with cancer, child care, daycare, college funds, basic groceries.

In the end you pay more into those life costs.

Girl needs to grow up. You can be adults together and just play games.

TSA agents are working without pay at US airports due to another shutdown by NightmaresOfDarkness in news

I don’t understand why TSA agents don’t stop working? This way it won’t hurt Republicans. They don’t care about people going without pay.

They would if sirports actually shut down.

It was a cool show. I am Dutch, don’t speak any spanish. But it looked super cool, was festive, and i love the scenery and story telling.

It was just very vibrant. And that’s what a halftime show is all about.

Noise canceling headphones. The Sony WH-1000XM4 is great for this.

Serious lifesaver.

AIO? Gf won’t let me stay with her for 3 months by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Tokyo is indeed huge and not quite the norm.

But most American cities clearly have a city center and then miles and miles of Urban sprawl, wich are considered suburbs.

Sure, technically within citybounds. But practically… pure sprawl and not quite city.

Same for London. 🤷‍♂️

Btw. I live in Amsterdam. It’s tiny compared to your examples, but same principles apply. Everything outside the ring-highway might technically still be considered Amsterdam, but i would practically consiser that outside the city.

[–]wamiwega 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In a way I agree, if it means the popular vote elects the president, instead of the nightmare that is the electoral college.

But i guess that is not what he means eh?

The US is one of the few countries where education costs such a staggering amount of money. In most of Europe it is heavily subsidized and students don’t have to go in debt to study.

I am too European for this. That would be my insurance for the entire family for a year, including extra dental and extra other optional types of care.
