Great time to strike; just before the Vegas Formula 1 race
Solid way to pressure the hotels

I really need to rewatch AEon flux and the Maxx

- Comment on Do PhDs HAVE to use Dr? 3 weeks ago:
Totally. 👍. Well said
Although I had a prof who was a JD who INSISTED on Dr. so she could be on par with the other instructors. But then no one liked her. So ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Otherwise ask the parents.
At two they are growing and changing quickly, clothes are good too

- Comment on Can someone define "liberal" (in its use as an insult) for me? 3 months ago:
In the USA. As others in the thread have said…
It is meant to ”other” — “You” are a good person, loves your Mama; loves Jesus and America too… ( miss you Tom Petty)
But “they” are other… those dang coastal elites they are latte sipping LIBERALS and hate everything about you.
It identifies them as wanting to take everything away from you. They don’t love Jesus , not the way you do. They want EVs forced on everyone. Etc

- Comment on Is someone safe if they report income from illegal means to the IRS? 5 months ago:
Oooh. I like that.
I’d think that courts would say that you can’t claim the fifth, since you self reported the illegal income. And that had you failed to claim it, you’d be evading taxes….
So yes. You COULD claim your 5th amendment rights against self incrimination, but then you’ve violated the 16th where you’ve failed to declare income.
- Comment on Is someone safe if they report income from illegal means to the IRS? 5 months ago:
It is not a safe option.
It is designed as a catch all.
The FBI isn’t going through tax returns looking for Illegal income; rather if you’re suspected of illegal activity, they WILL go through your tax returns, because if you didn’t report your illegal income that is another law you’ve then broken. — See Al Capone
So. It is both a very bad idea, and a good idea to report your illegal income
A better idea is to not do anything illegal; or at least do the illegal thing offshore and hide the income there. Like a good multinational corporation would.
- Comment on Trailers community chat, June 2024: Hi everybody! 5 months ago:
Introduce yourself——9 up votes and no comments
Yeah I loved coming attractions, because even if the movie was way out of my lane it was fun to see how they pitched it.
I’ve never found that trailers give away the movie, we kinda know that the bad news bears are going to win. That’s not the point; we want to enjoy the journey.
I’d even love to see a sister sub, for trailers older than a few years

I get (I’m pissed off that) they do it. Business are shit; but we know that….
What really pisses me off; in to a white hot RAGE?!!?
- Only 1 in 4 repeat wage theft offenders get fined, despite violating federal wage laws more than once.
WT actual F
Why are they not being fined 10x ???
Gdism

Ooo yes thank you. Because no corporations have ever (Enron) done anything wrong, ever.
Sorry. So ensuring that Unions are accountable to their members
- Comment on 'We're Gonna Win': Alabama Mercedes Workers Begin UAW Vote 5 months ago:
I’m 100% pro union…
Are there any (lol) good faith reasons to not vote yes?
No really. I can’t think of any; and I was looking to ? Steel man the argument…
I’m assuming that all the ones that I’ve seen from the business side are not in good faith — well that and they are laughable…

It’s amazing how these “Great American Businessmen “ shit on so many others.
Almost like it is a feature; rather than a bug
- Comment on Why is currency so essential? 6 months ago:
Because that philosophy has won over the most people.
I didn’t say it was the best. You may or may not believe that living in a yurt foraging mushrooms might be the best life; but “western “ civilization has deemed capitalism to be the way.
Under capitalism people need money to use for the things they want that they cannot make themselves.
A wise man once said “Money can’t buy me Love” —but it certainly improves your bargaining position

After getting over the urge to kill my self…
Longer then one would expect
Most of us don’t have or are only kinda aware of real survival skills. - farming, hunting, fishing — okay there’s your food
Next thing is shelter and clothing- are the people just gone? Or is shit really messed up?
- you can get good clothes and if housing is still standing you’ll be fine for a long time.
Holding out hope that there are any other survivors would help you go on, I believe as you’d want to find them.
So yes there are no numbers, but if you’re in a good place mentally. You can survive a long time
