Formerly known as time Warner cable (TWC) changed their name to try and avoid all the bad rep they rightfully had (and still have).

That’s an interesting take but with our term lengths that means a 15y can vote for president and senator but can’t vote for a house rep.

It’s meant for a bit of fun (and maybe trolling some MAGAs) by someone with too much time…and a lack of smell. Like what’s the point of Trump nfts having him shopped into a decent body or that gold mascot version of him at rallies or the AI art of demon or communist Kamala. At least this took some actual effort on the part of the creator.

But we can argue against him for dictatorship, climate/environment destruction, white supremacy, male privilege, Ukraine v Russia, and the economy. But of course none of that matters 🙄.

Does the podcast still have to be in English? And what topics are you usually interested in?

Paperback. I’ve sometimes waited for paperback versions of books after their initial hardcover release. Cheaper, lighter, same reading, I used to be less patient so would suck it up and get the hardcover, nowadays I don’t read as much so waiting is easier. I read a lot when traveling and hardcovers are just such a pain. The only “nice” collection I have is LOTR+hobbit.

I’m trying out an eReader soon but I’m not sure I’ll be able to get away from the desire of physically turning pages.

GTO was/is great.

Hugging, yeah. My joints(knees, shoulders, back) are too fucked for what play wrestling is between guys, I forget that when I see my brother after a while but I get reminded right quick. No snuggling, but I’m also not usually on a couch when we hang, still probably not.

Honestly, doubt it is millions. Boeing has a big problem for the other reasons you mention but people like yourself actively avoiding their planes is going to be a minority. I’ve flown a few times since all the shit became public. All the planes were Boeing… full flights (and not super popular destinations). I’m thankful I want on a 787 or the new 757s I’ll agree with that.

Trial on people who they don’t care about upsetting.

At a societal level young people arent getting the benefits of their work. We’re getting what is paid for. They’re paying those old guys pensions+benefits but their own has been cut to the marrow. Consumers pay isn’t going to them. And good fucking luck to any of them trying to start up against behemoths both local and national that can nip them in the bud before they become competitive.

I know they could be I’m just not sure they’re that competent. These bots often aren’t single user or just copy paste either, there’s usually some effort to mix it up or change wording slightly. Reddits internal search function is infamously shit but they “know” which users are unlabeled bots with some effort put behind them?

I doubt Reddit is in charge of many of the existing bots on their site.

BoA and Chase are both above the limit that they have to have a decent chunk of actual non-invested cash. Trump increased the limit of when that is necessary and i haven’t heard of Biden dropping it back down. Lack of cash reserves is an important part of why a number of small-mid size banks were capable of failing.

Can eli5 this for me?

Insert astronaut meme.

What I’m saying about this amount of wealth is that it is because people were not paid the value of their work. They gained 20T over the years because that is what they make from underpaying and overcharging. That unregulated capitalism is the basis that leads to such obscene wealth. Redistribution is not about investment but changing the underlying system. It’s basically 58k of backpay. People would largely use it to get out of debt and improve their lives in some way.

From then on with the system changed people are getting an extra 5,800/y. Enough for significantly more families to avoid food insecurity and get/stay out of debt. Those two things are the biggest helps you can give people to reduce crime, and improve communities. It doesn’t have to be much as multiple UBI studies have shown.

The top 0.1% in the US have ~20Trillion in wealth. That’s enough for all ~340million Americans to get 58,000. Globally across all ~10Billion people thats enough for everyone to get 2,000. That’s a one time thing, making it an investment isn’t accurate to what it represents in terms of value generated that was not given to the workers.

At the US level 58k would get most people out of student loan debt (29k average)and free from credit card debt(6k average).

At a global level 2,000 would allow the world’s poor to be able to eat a healthy diet(3.54) every day for over 1.5 years or a subsistence diet (0.83) for 6.6 years

Tinnitus is a constant whine. Other actual noise helps prevent having to constantly be thinking and feeling the whine because the “white noise” has your ear dealing with other things.

It isn’t the reason everyone listens to white noise but people with Tinnitus could help themselves go less crazy if they listen to white noise.
