Much of Florida under state of emergency as possible tropical storm forms in Gulf of Mexico

  • Are there actually people that need an excuse to get drunk and bbq? Sounds like a normal Saturday to me.

  • I mean, tropical storm aside would you want to be in Florida anyway?

    • Palin’s Civil War Threat a Sign of Very Bad Things to Come

  • It's probably an unpopular opinion but I'm going to say it anyway. Trump needs brought to justice and this country needs a "come to jesus moment." As shitty as it sounds, I don't see a way forward WITHOUT violence. Trump is a symptom, not a cause. He just managed to push things harder and faster than those before. Something is going to come to a head, and it's not going to be pretty, but I don't think we as a country can truly heal until that happens.

    Consider that my $0.02 after drinking on a Friday night, lol.

  • Was going to suggest this. Github even has native support for them so you just plug it in and touch the gold pad for your second form. Even easier than a TOTP code.

  • Since when have GQP voters cared if the person they vote for actually does anything?! I thought they just wanted someone to "own the libs" and bitch about "woke" things (while being unable to define that that actually is).

    • Wage demands hit record high: Average job seeker wants at least $78k

    Jump

  • The calculator defaults to semi-monthly and I think the original commenter didn't change it. Also, it defaults to your current location so the take-home will be different for everyone running the calculator (because taxes). $78k is $6500 a month BEFORE TAXES.

    • Wage demands hit record high: Average job seeker wants at least $78k

    Jump

  • But that's my point, employers are giving it (kinda, I'll circle-back to this). The full-time offer has gone up $9k in the last 12 months. Contrasted with the ask that has only gone up $6k in that same time-frame.

    Now, is $70k a livable wage? Hard to say without a more specific location. In bumfuck Alabama, probably. In LA, hell no.

    • Wage demands hit record high: Average job seeker wants at least $78k

    Jump

  • So:

    The average reservation wage of U.S. jobs seekers — the lowest annual pay workers would accept for a new job — climbed to a record high of $78,645 in July, up from $72,873 at the same time last year, according to the survey.

    Combined with:

    Yet the average full-time wage offer received in the past four months was $69,475, itself a marked increase from $60,764 last July.

    So that's a 13.5% increase in full-time wage offers vs a 7.5% increase in ask. This seems like a non-story then, yes? Inflation has pushed wages higher which has pushed expectations higher. However, the offer increase is higher than the ask increase so... Am I missing something here?

  • I'm kinda surprised this wasn't the original announcement. I figured it would just move to a paid feature. Maybe the initial tweet (or whatever the fuck we call an X) was just to get attention.

    • Wealthiest 10% of US Households Responsible for 40% of Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Study

    Jump

  • TIL I'm in the top 10%. Yeah I can't believe I pollute any more than the other 90%. I work 100% from home, only my wife commutes 3 days a week. House is a modest 2200 sq ft. I don't have a boat or RV or plane or anything. I have some modest investment in hotels, cruise lines, and airlines (like under $5k all in). So yeah, this study leaves a lot to be desired.

    EDIT: I guess my 401k or other managed investment accounts may have money in fossil fuels, but I'm not sure how I would know that or what exactly I would do about it. I have zero choice for the 401k as it's through my company. Other accounts maybe but how would one even track down managed investment accounts that don't include the largest pollution contributors?
