  • Depending on your mirror configuration, you can often check those blind spots in the mirrors themselves by just leaning your body forward.

  • At one point Fox canceled like 20 other shows, with Greg the Bunny being one of them, between the time Fox cancelled Family Guy, and the time they brought back Family guy.

    TL:DR https://youtu.be/0oMTmtN7lHI

  • The third and fourth sentences of the article:

    To avoid paying the penalty, Bilzerian pleaded poverty and twice declared bankruptcy. He later moved to the island nation of St. Kitts and Nevis, beyond the reach of the U.S. government.

  • They didn't. They had access to workstations which were then compromised in turn.

  • It's not just consumer spending that influences inflation,/deflation but also institutional spending. The consumer price index is a lagging indicator. Decreases in institutional spending precede unemployment and the eventual reduced demand for consumer goods and services. And increases in the fed rate (and/or other forces which cause the cost of borrowing money for institutions/investors to rise) generally precede that.

  • My book is due back at the library, and I have to rewind it.

  • They were breached via a compromised security vendor

  • Yes, every time you move the goalposts, you change the scope.

    But sure, I'll bite, again.

    What does infinite growth have to do with deflation? You don't have to have one or the other. You can also just have stagnation, which is arguably more sustainable than the unemployment caused by deflation.

  • If they still have a paycheck, sure. But historically, deflation leads to unemployment.

  • But, perhaps, we need to guarantee everyone the right to the basic requirements of life? Then we don't have to make sure billionaires get more billions, just so they can try to survive the hellscape we have created?

    Sure. But that is outside of the scope of your original take and in no way validates it.

  • Deflationationary phases are very helpful for the working class, as their dollar now buys MORE things. Like food. And housing. And health care.

    What kind of braindead take is that? The working class? The same working class that majorly lives paycheck to paycheck and can't even afford an unexpected $500 expense?

    What dollars do you think they are going to have in a deflationary economy after they get laid off?

  • If Jesus Christ of the New Testament existed, no one in the "Christian" right would be welcome in his house.

    Would all not be welcome? Isn't that supposed to be your point about their condescending gatekeeping?

  • Alternatively, people like to meme on the Internet.

  • And here I was thinking it was Tom Paris.
