Ah there it is, I remember why I hate this website. SJWs telling me to check my privilege because they’ve made poor financial decisions

You’re essentially getting a worse version of cable now. Now, you subscribe to a bunch of streaming services, only to realize that there’s a new show you’re interested in that’s totally unavailable to you, even were you willing to pay for it individually, unless you subscribe to a service you don’t otherwise want.  

Need a few hundred thousand gallons of tertiary injectant to enhance oil recovery on a marginal well? That’s deductible. Why? Because when the price of oil is sufficiently high, the investment is worth it, but only if the extra costs are tax deductible. Oil that doesn’t pump itself costs more to extract and recover,…

It would be great if you covered literally any part of the Isle of Man besides the deaths. This is the first time it’s been on since 2019, it has live video coverage for the first time ever, some rule changes have happened, John McGuinness is back, Davey Todd is actively chasing his first win, and people are gunning…

“In any case, I feel very happy and safe living in a society in which a man can beat a woman within an inch of her life”

It’s a logistical nightmare in how they are going to distribute this properly. Identifying the areas of highest need and getting it onto trucks and on shelves is outside the Federal Government regular function. FEMA isn’t even capable of handling an operation of this scale.

the plane was purposefully put into a nose-dive, which could mean the crash was intentional

People like to complain, that doesn’t mean they’re actually concerned by the cost. 

Some context is important here:

I just returned from a month of living in Puebla, where the big VW plant is that has been there since 1973 and supplies cars for the whole world except China.

This is what stuff costs there:

Bus fare: about 35 cents US - many many people take the bus.

An average 1 br/1ba apartment: about…

There is a lot more to unpack from this story than Mat covered in the linked source material.

No. I’m blaming a bad candidate for knowingly standing as a bad candidate. Candidates, and their supporters, are not entitled to support from voters, that is not democracy, and they certainly are not entitled to blame voters for not voting for them.

Wait....you do realize that even in 2009-2010 this would have taken 60 votes-- something which necessitated ACA compromises (for example jettisoning the public option to get Lieberman on board). In 2009-2010 there were substantially more anti choice Dem Senators than there are now (2 Manchin and Casey).

Great, now a black gay woman can make excuses for how utterly ineffective biden is and punch to the left constantly instead of fighting against fascism.

I’ve seen a lot of people say “They’re both horrible people.” and I don’t really get it. Things so far really seem like Amber Heard has lied and bullshit her way to being a victim where as Johnny Depp appears to have, outside of some angry texts not even sent to her directly, not done anything verifiable to her.

We could also accept that she got her support and now the man also needs support. 

“What, after all, is this age group meant to be pleased with? This age group overwhelmingly wanted Bernie Sanders’ much more ambitious, much more radical platform, and has instead been forced to watch Biden renege on even his very mildest campaign promises, like canceling student loan debt and decriminalizing…

Gotta say, it is distressingly surprising how many people want to blame anyone but the single most poker full person on earth, who actively sought this job after decades being one of the most powerful politicians in America, and made promises to get that job that he is now breaking. It is young voters fault for not…

Gas & oil prices before Russia invaded Ukraine, highest inflation in 40 years, student debt, inability to get support within his own party, his response to Russia’s invasion, his son & brother who he has lied about, shall I continue?  I voted for Biden but I’m worried he’s going to hand the Republicans the White House.

Why feel gross about it?

Within its pages you might find photos of a naked football game, or copy extolling the merits of a good old-fashioned circle jerk, which the magazine described as a “pleasant and supersafe alternative” to an orgy.
