  • Is there dead babies somewhere? Probably, I don't want to look for it either. Was there exactly 40 beheaded babies that journalists claimed "were hidden but reported by the IDF so it was impossible to verify"? Well, I might have a bridge to sell you.

  • I'm pretty sure LiveLeak used to have 40 hours of IDF sniping children uploaded to it daily

    Of course, it would be just as useful if they claimed 0.4 babies or 4,000,000 - the only thing that really matters is they have a unified line the media can repeat ad nauseum for the next month.

  • I hope those people living in the Midwest making 40K a year got their income bumped up to 60-70K a year so they could afford the new housing market.

    That's the real rub with these studies that use national averages. It's not affordable for anyone, anywhere - unless you're blessed with a remote job paying HCOL money and don't mind moving somewhere where the nearest doctor is an hour away and the local past time is fentanyl and larceny.

  • In my humble opinion, blaming the continued dismantling of these welfare programs on Joe Manchin or another ghoul of the day™️ isn't actually a 'well informed take' unless you think legislation is a sport Democrats keep mysteriously fumbling at

  • For one, you can have a second screen and Google the answers. It's a little bit harder in person.

    I'd really like to see a system of online learning where extension offices are built out into testing center networks. This still disenfranchises people sadly, but staves off some existential questions about what passing an exam even means now.

  • The problem is you legally don't have the right to "terminate for any reason" when it comes to a number of protected classes, but these laws make it so we have to rely on you being stupid enough to create a massive trail of evidence (easy part with small business tyrants), but also litigate it for potentially years on end - harder

  • If you live in a state with a bottle deposit. The $0.05-0.10 is paid with the government aid, but returned as cash to the redeemer. It's a poor and laborious return on investment, but doesn't require actually hustling to sell water like that to tourists.

  • I've seen this first hand a good few times - believe me or not because I don't want to be too specific about my experience. You've got to be super desperate to pour out a 40 count of bottled water for $2-4, but people with nothing else but SNAP/EBT/etc funds will do it.

    It's sad and wasteful, but it's also such a marginal thing compared to the Sacklers making the opium wars look like a prank that I don't see how it can even brought up in the same conversation - except as deflection.

  • I'm sorry but this is definitely shit you only say when you're very far from the action. Would you want your grandpa drafted and sent into a minefield to "dissuade the aggressor"? Grandma and the children too apparently, better dead than governed by another neighboring authoritarian shithole?

    I think I'd rather just flee with my family to a country right next door that has a nuclear deterrent and NATO membership. Literally why would "they need to all fight to the death instead" be your first thought? I can't imagine it coming from a position where you think Ukrainians are as human as you are.
