Same. I think they want enough of us to throw the rest under the bus as a “got mine” and keep dividing and conquering. It is so exhausting having to tell the rest of my high earning peers that the enemy is NOT people just trying to survive…

“if you wanted to stay alive, you should have gotten a better paying job”

I’m a programmer. I miss my 70s thermostat. Hot/cold/off, temperature, and fan on/auto. Very simple. Just worked.

The smart thermostat is nice, but it’s something I’ll need to revisit when I have time.

It’s six times better than vine!

Are you American? If so, know your rights. Most debt cannot be passed down to surviving children. If the amount of debt exceeds how much their estate is worth, the lenders are not entitled to you paying them. They will try to make you pay, don’t do it! Do not give them even one penny or agree to anything, or you will have then “assumed” the debt and now it is yours.

The exceptions are loans where your name is on them (joint or cosigned iirc) or medical debt in certain states with filial responsibility laws.

Make those with decent construction so every cough and sneeze isn’t broadcasted to all of your neighbors with good design so it’s disability friendly, and that is the dream right there.

When there are lots of seats available, I leave my stuff on the seat next to me. If no one is likely to need it, it is nice for me because it is more comfortable and doesn’t bother people around me. (Unlike, for instance, taking off my shoes and letting the smell of my sweaty feet disturb people around me.)

When it’s starting to be slim pickings, I put my stuff on my lap.

I’ve never had a problem when I asked politely if I could sit in the seat where someone kept their stuff. It’s just nice to give people the benefit of the doubt for something like this.

If someone singled me out for this, I would wonder to myself why they chose to direct it at me. Did my RBF strike again? Was it just random chance? Is this part of a scam? Are they a bigot? If I’m getting a full rant for something small and easy to resolve, I do question how far the person will go, since their reaction seems disproportionate. Are they going to escalate further? How much further? Is this person going to follow me when I get off at my stop?

I had a similar problem… Swimming was good for me, until the “recurring ear infection” nation attacked.

After trying and failing to reach them for comment, we finally heard from them. They just told us “whatever, man.”

Hump people’s legs.

Wages, rights, safety, dirt

Fucking unions, how do they work?

Wait, what was it in?

I believe it’s called a bone hurting juice meme.

It would be an antimeme if the person in the first panel said something like “someone give me a thumbs up”

The distinction is that the bone hurting juice meme takes an element of the meme and transforms it into something else, and an antimeme just over explains it.

Sigma balls lmao gottem

This and Courage the Cowardly Dog both had some creepy stuff. Love them both!

No, that gap between the cabinets and the ceiling make this whole renovation literally unlivable.

Sometimes this is fine and works as expected. Sometimes it ends up with me going way under the speed limit as half of the other lane gets in front of me, as I continue to decelerate to keep proper stopping distance. (Bonus points if the people behind me also pass me because of this.)

It’s occasions like those I’m glad I leave some wiggle room in my travel time.

Hey look, a picture of cute kids!

Mmm push pops

Hai :D :D
