Middle class families passing down inheritance is not a driver of inequality.

A dozen individuals controlling 60% of the wealth in America is.

Lemmy moderation is just as toxic as Reddits. Post an opinion that runs against the group meta and it will be removed. I find myself using it less and less. If I can find a viable alternative that isn’t Reddit I’d jump.

Not everyone is handy or knows how to use tools. Instead of a passive aggressive post on Lemmy. Perhaps talk to your neighbor comment on the fence posts and offer to fix it or show him/her how to fix it.

“Hey how is it going neighbor,I saw you fixed the fence. Love the new wood, did the hardware store not have the right length? Yeah that is a bummer, I have a saw, I’m sure I could help you get those planks evened out in a few minutes if you’d like.”

If they are a dick after that then post away.

There is no reason to further antagonize Cuban expats for zero political gain elsewhere in the US. No other major voting block in the US gives a shit about Cuba.

Stay the course!

Much of Russian oil production is going offline and is never coming back anyways. Since the fall of the USSR they haven’t been training engineers at a rate to maintain their own infrastructure. Many of the engineers they do have are nearing retirement age.

As a result don’t have the technical expertise to maintain their own infrastructure oil fields in Siberia. Those fields require oil to flow constantly otherwise the oil will freeze and expand and burst the pipes. The last time this happened was during the fall of the USSR and those well heads took 20 years to come back online and required Western expertise to repair.

They’ve depended on Western companies to build out and maintain those tracts ever since. When those go well heads go offline either through lack of maintenance or through Ukraine attacking storage centers where this oil is kept before its shipped, they won’t come back on again. They will still have tracts of oil fields in the Western part of the country that they can pump, but they will permanently loose a lot of capacity. Your likely to see a Venezuela style gradual drop off in production over the next ten years if they don’t change course and bring back Western expertise.

It doesn’t really matter to the US, we produce a ton of oil domestically and have been switching over our refineries to process it. Europe, China and India will be the ones to really feel the squeeze when Russian oil goes offline.

Naw homie, this had nothing to do with the USA. This is just some good Ol’ Mossad hijinks.

Sounds like a lot more opportunities to put some spicy batteries in Mid East bound electronic shipments.

You do realize those pagers were made in Taiwan right?

It’s hard to find versions of the original with the cheesy English dubbing. There are a few LBGTQ jokes in the old version which many streaming services just won’t run.

The old dubbed version is waaay better though and I had to track a copy of it down on DVD on eBay to get it.

I love purple or other weird colors/ features in houses. It means I can get the property with less competition as most buyers are afraid of basic renovations.

My house had shitty purple walls and weird space age looking chrome light fixtures everywhere. Took me a while two days after closing to paint and replace it all. I was the only person who had put an offer in.

The fries are shit, unless you get them animal style. The burgers are good especially if you get them 2x2 or 3x3.

You’re going to complain about lettuce? Get some fucking fiber in your diet.

Evidently you haven’t discovered their secret menu.

Meh, Inn and Out burgers taste just as good as any $25 bougie burger.

Came here to say the same thing brother.

You keep using that word, but I don’t think it means what you think it means.
