Oh look, someone who doesn’t understand how progressive tax brackets work.
The 90% only kicks in on any money made over €400k, bro. That means they’re already making that 400k (less whatever the prior tax brackets are), and if they make €400,100 then only that extra €100 is taxed at 90%. This is so far from hurting “normal working people” that I can hardly believe your take isn’t a deliberate troll.
Dude is literally a science-denying antivaxxer who had actual brain worms. If anyone is braindead it’s RFK.
Exactly. Intelligence is knowing what the right words are. Wisdom is knowing what words to use to get your point across to people who aren’t as intelligent as you.
Barefoot shoes for life! I have switched entirely to barefoot shoes - or at least, foot-shaped and zero drop, even if the sole is thicker - and my feet have never been happier.
Some of my favorite brands:
LEMS - good hiking shoes. Nice wide toe box, decently lightweight, don’t look too goofy.
Peerko - good all-around. Lots of looks, some casual, some nicer. Definitely avoiding the crunchy outdoor hobo and/or silly clown shoes look.
Designed by Anya - Anya was a barefoot enthusiast who eventually made her own line, with loafers and boots. Cute and comfy femme barefoot shoes.
Vivobarefoot - used to be a little on the crunchy outdoor hobo side, but some of their more recent looks have stepped up their game nicely. I really like their loafers.
It’s because we have brains and can read further than the headline 🤷🏻♀️
I have been eagerly watching this since it was first reported on in September. I will literally throw myself at the researchers to be a test subject for RA when they get to it. Cannot fucking wait.
Shitty cereal is my weakness, but even then you can fit it into an otherwise healthy diet as a treat every now and then. I just buy the tiny box once a month and only have a few bowls. Working on a box of fruity pebbles right now, lol.
“Improved” is the wrong word, in my opinion. It’s not that the tea is made better with the addition of milk, it’s just that it’s good in a different way. I drink my tea straight at work, no additions. But on a Saturday morning, with flapjacks and bacon, a lavender earl grey with a hint of sugar and a small splash of cream is just. Mmm. The cream can mute some of the stronger flavor profiles and allow some of the more subtle ones to shine. I love it both ways, neither is better than the other. They’re just different good.
Most Americans don’t get kettles with temp settings because we’re fucking plebs. Ask an American what they think a kettle is and 7 times out of 10 they’ll say it’s a busted, dented piece of metal with a strange flippy lid that their mom used to put on the stovetop for some reason.
I mean, I’m not. I have one with 6 different temps on it. Because tea is serious business. But most Americans, you know. 😂
I mean, given that it’s generally used for humor’s sake, I don’t think most people using the comma ellipsis are particularly worried about the intellectual value of their statement 🤷🏻♀️
The comma ellipsis has evolved among various internet communities (primarily xitter/tumblr, but also seen elsewhere) as a sort of sarcastic/comedic version of the “trailing off” of a period ellipsis.
did not actually file copyrights on their art with the U.S. Copyright Office.
The way they’ve worded this isn’t really a sufficient explanation of how this works. An artist is automatically granted copyright upon the creation of a work, so it’s not that they don’t have the right to protect their work. It’s just that, without registration, you cannot file a lawsuit to protect your work.
Copyright exists from the moment the work is created. You will have to register, however, if you wish to bring a lawsuit for infringement of a U.S. work.

However, if it’s within 5 years of initial publication, they can still be granted a formal registered copyright and bring the complaint again.
The fact that I have no idea what her name is but still know exactly who you’re talking about when you say Lettuce Head is endlessly amusing to me.
Yep. I’m on immunosuppressive medication so gimme gimme - I’ve managed to only get one very mild case of covid so far and even that was fucking miserable. Do not want, please give more vaccine.
Yeah if I’m gonna get digital-carded to play a video game like I get regular-carded for booze at 34, I will absolutely just start pirating everything.
Ah yes, managed democracy! Every citizen of Super America enjoys the freedom to make the right choice.
