Hands down one of the worst “feature” of new vehicles IMO. If you need help on a hill, either use the parking brake like everyone else, learn to drive better, or just drive an auto.

Yes, I have never owned anything else. I really struggle to drive auto/CVT, honestly, it’s so confusing for me.

Early 40s. Murica.

You can also gift something like 12 million in your lifetime tax free, so pass on as much as you can, to your family that way, before you die.

If you don’t keep all your money in 1 bank accounts the FDIC insurance will cover it. Iirc it’s either 250k per account, or maybe it was per person, per institution.

I’m pretty sure that pretty much anyone else that’s ever been “delayed medical care” has the been out on house arrest. Why wasn’t he moved to a different jail, fed if necessary? Why did all these traitors get special treatment? Iirc the shaman asshat wasn’t getting his mommies organic food so he threw a fit and got some kind of special treatment too. Plus all the ridiculously comically light sentences.

Well, unless they are complete morons (looking at you Rudy) they are requiring payment in advance.

More accurately, a for profit system is the real problem.

I’m fully aware of why, but it doesn’t change the fact, that I as the end user, get FAR less care than I did 5 years ago. AND I keep paying more and more and more every year for even less care.

Sure, people making more money is a good thing. Well, as long as it’s distributed relatively equally. The issue that I personally take with their salary, especially when considering inflation (which most of us can’t say the same) is the massive decrease in care. I don’t think it’s fair for doctors to make more and more money every year, while providing CONSIDERABLY less or worse care.

Can I promote a community I started, when I migrated here? I had hoped it would pick up a little steam, but sadly, I’m alone there. If you’re a woman runner, check out https://kbin.social/m/XXRunning

That OSHA warning is great.

It sounds like I’m about the same age as you. Yeah, it’s crazy how well it worked. I remember those VHS too. They were so awkward. It’s also crazy how many people my age STILL thinks things like unions, OSHA, workers rights, never talking to other employees about your wages, etc are bad. Like does no one look around?

YTA. Over 18. Living at home, with no financial responsibility. Yup. You’re the asshole. AC is expensive. If you want to run it all the time, guess it’s time to get your own place, and pay the electricity bill yourself.

Fair. Thank you for the answer.

I’m genuinely curious, and I’m not trying to start an argument, but why do you think that OP should pay for the cab ride home? I’m going to assume the woman was not an escort, that she went to OP’s place of her own accord, and was a willing participant. So my questions is why is it seen as the “right thing to do” to give her money to get home?

I ask this as a woman, who would never assume that I didn’t need to figure my own shit out, after a night of partying, because it’s my responsibility. I get it is probably the nice thing to do, maybe, but even then, she theoretically had fun too.

Paying for sex is negotiated ahead of time. Always.

If I had some fun with a random dude, and he asked me for money after (without any discussion beforehand), I’d laugh in his face. Largely because, um what, but also because that’s not my thing.

Unfortunately, there are still multiple generations of people that have been brainwashed into thinking that unions are the devil, and people should stop whining, and just get a better job. Those same people don’t see how the modern job market has changed, in addition to the obvious issues with their beliefs. I remember all the propaganda when I was younger.

Those same people also tend to rail against anything that offers THEM protections, like OSHA. It’s an uphill battle.

Oh, I know. I’m just saying, I have had the pleasure/displeasure of meeting a few, and they all seem to be super skittish, and yappy like chihuahuas

They really are adorable, but unfortunately, they have the largely have the temperaments of chihuahuas, from what I’ve seen.

Edit: fixed a typo

Frequently rural, old, or old residential are just unmarked streets (typically barely wide enough for 2 cars) with no sidewalks, or bike lanes, at least where I’m from. In CA everything was built around the car, so I’d assume they thought no one would ever need to walk anywhere, since everything is probably miles away, and cars.

Agreed, but in theory you wouldn’t be able to add milk (it’s a drink after all)

I prefer green tea personally, but recently found some Hawaiian Mamaki Tea, and I’m loving it.

I mean, if you don’t understand that fundamental concept, there’s no helping you.
