There are dozens of us! Dozens!!

“we can’t ban non-competes it would ruin everything!!”

California who has banned non-competes for decades:

“The Fellowship voted nearly unanimously to have the ring flown by giant eagles to Mordor to be dropped into the volcano. Unfortunately, the measure was ruled ineligible by the chamber parliamentarian.”

Sowwwwy government can’t help people it can only send bombs overseas

This is when Trump steps down and names a replacement. It’s not like he really wants to be president anyways

Something like “they don’t have the resources the cops need to stop the crime. So I trust the police but the fact is that crime is basically legal now”

Love it. I’d like a version without “assholes” that I feel would be more well received by scared folks

Vote for your congress person and your senator, both federal and state. Vote for your city council and your sheriff and whatever bills there are and everything else. That’s where the fight still matters.

I checked they all suck ass

It’s been a while but I remember enjoying filling out the Assassins Creed 4 map and doing all of the side quests.

I like when I can unlock the fast travel towers for a region and it will tell me where all of the side stuff is. Also love LotR: Shadow of War for similar reasons.

I’ve seen all his ONI videos he’s terrific

I can watch Hasan but I just need to minimize the chat or ignore it

I understand parasocial relationships and the feeling of community that comes with watching streamers, but when it’s a stream with a large amount of folks and there’s just a flurry of a chat it gives me anxiety I have no idea how they enjoy typing into that setting or what they’re seeing

Watching the emojis fly by I feel like I am Neo seeing the Matrix code for the first time. nothing makes sense to me but I can tell something is going on

HSAs are just tax breaks for wealthy people who are already paying cash for medical treatment

They usually say that too eventually. Have a good one.

Damn those are some bleak options, yeah. Almost like the US is a capitalist hellscape or something.

“Join us or perish” is what they seem to be signaling, yeah.

Apparently you see that as only having two choices and are going with “join them,” which is fine I’m not your morality coach. I’m certainly not asking you to sit down and die.

You can rationalize it all you want. That you have no choice but to participate. I hear it all the time from people telling me to vote for Biden.

I addressed pensions in my initial comment.

Most pension funds have a similar issue in that they are investing in rent seeking etc. But unlike 401ks, pensions carry with them significant political power than can influence where the money is going. This is (imo) why they are being gutted in favor of individual 401k accounts.

Unions and pensions can be powerful tools. They’re being replaced by Independent Contractors and 401ks.

If a pension fund looks identical to a 401k index fund then yeah I’d have the same opinion.
