With all due respect, Absolutely zero of this shit makes saving for retirement “easier”.

More like giving a longer period of tax-advantaged growth the wealthy.

Hot take: everyone has been taking Star Wars way way way way way more seriously than they should have been since about 1993 at least, if not earlier, and everyone should shut up about it for a few years.

Phew, thought I wouldn’t be able to find this, glad it’s still floating out in the ether

Actual conversation between my mom and me:

12 weeks mandatory paid parental leave AT THE MINIMUM for everyone, across the board should be the conversation we are having into the new decade. I’m about to turn 30, finishing my grad program, and absolutely terrified about starting a family. I’m afraid I won’t have time or money, merely scraping by hoping my child…

Fuck baby Yoda. He’s a merchandise delivery system. There. I said it. Seriously though, fuck him.

More context is really helpful. I was so consistently disappointed in the short vague comments with links that I just started jumping over those also.  Summary + link for more info is much more pleasant.

No, the normal window would shatter into thousands of pieces, as it is supposed to. Tesla catches fire from an accident, doors jam and precious seconds are lost as ERS cannot successfully break the glass instantly. They will, what, need to use an axe? While you burn.

But it’s not a launch. That’s the issue I have. It was an unveiling of a far-from-production concept coupled with some aspirational specs for a car that is at best 2 years from production. It’s just BS hype to keep Tesla in the news. The kind of stuff a company that’s been making cars for over a decade shouldn’t need…

You’re missing some Campari in your Negroni...

And once again those of us Gen Xers are caught in the crossfire, shrugging and lamenting the fact that Thurston Moore cheated on Kim Gordon and broke up Sonic Youth even if, like most of us, their best years were behind them.

Didn't they just stick them in old-age homes while mounting a strategy to privatize Social Security? 

I just wanted to add that Sambuca & Black Sambuca Really good! 

If you feel the people who are uncomfortable around rapists should need to leave instead of the rapist, you’re part of the problem.

But they are ruining the medium, on the business side at least. There’s nothing wrong with them, in principle: they’re just kind of crappy, generic, big budget, effects heavy movies.

Thank you. White people know exactly what they’re doing when they write these statements. It’s the same shit like when newspapers write “A woman was raped” and not “A man raped a woman”. Passive voice makes it sound like the cops flicked their magic wand and made the shit happen.

First of all, since the fuck when is an open door cause for 5-0 to be all up in yoiur house, peeping in and shooting from outside like they don’t have any goddamn sense?

“The U.s. Is Now Betraying the Kurds for the Eighth Time”

Looks like either a Daiquiri or a Gimlet.
