is THAT what that was about?
I only ever watched the first half of the TV movie. Second half never really seemed to air, or it really failed to explain anything.

Those aren’t croissants. Those are crescents.
I was going to make a joke, spelling it the same way and pronouncing it differently, but I’m pretty sure the Pillsbury tubes are even called crescents on the package

There are nearly 3000 billionaires worldwide. Collectively they own 14 trillion in wealth.
This is nearly double all of the wealth held by every other person in the world, combined.

- Comment on What's the endgame when the rich have all the money? 1 week ago:
That, at present, is where the wealth is coming from.
If the Fed just keeps printing money, eventually that too loses all value. It needs to actually be able to buy things. Sure it’s backed by US securities and bonds, but if the US isn’t capable of collecting taxes, because it’s people aren’t making any money and have started to barter amongst themselves, then they can issue all the bonds and bills they want and it won’t mean a damn thing.
Money is their only real leverage. They’re racing to find the minimum amount of money they can give us and still maintain that leverage.
- Comment on What's the endgame when the rich have all the money? 1 week ago:
There’s a critical point in wealth disparity where money begins to lose value. As the amount of wealth that can be extracted from the working class dwindles and the people who have too little find other ways to barter with each other.
Fun fact, we have already seen an early attempt at this. And while I think we’re still a ways away, it’s not exactly without precedent.

Plot twist, her fiancee refuses to commit to a date and she will be engaged for years, constantly planning a wedding that will never come. Growing more and more frustrated and vocal about her upcoming wedding.

I would give this pill to a million Chinese and Russian dissidents.
Xi and Putin would just be constantly shitting. There would be no moment in any day for as long as they lived that they weren’t shitting.

Fallacy fallacy.
Sometimes a person is insufferable and that’s the problem.
Like with lawmakers.
- Comment on What are your bank details? 3 weeks ago:
Lawmakers don’t know shit about fuck. Sometimes they have experts available they listen to. Otherwise it’s whoever spends the most, who they’re buddies with, or what just feels like it will jive with their base at the time.

- Comment on Trying to retain your sanity while married 5 weeks ago:
I put the cooler ones on the inside, warmer ones on the outside. Harder to tell. I end up only using a few strands of the annoyingly cool lights and it makes the tree look brighter without being able to see the dramatic difference in color.
- Comment on Trying to retain your sanity while married 5 weeks ago:
The ten of us that can tell the difference might as well be screaming in to the void my similarly photosensitive friend.
My wife can’t see the difference in the colors of the lights on the Christmas tree, and bought two different brands. There’s not enough of either brand to sufficiently light the tree so I have to get creative with the cooler lights.
Drives me absolutely NUTS.

They’re big adorable idiots. Kinda like land cows.

If my kid is running a website and some fucking lawyer calls me about copyright bullshit, that fucker is getting 100% of my pent up salty rage.
I have a very particular set of skills, and they only make me a nightmare for a very specific type of situation.
- Comment on When leftists say "landlord are parasites" or similar dislike of landlords, do they also mean the people that own like a couple of houses as an investment, or only the big landlords? 5 weeks ago:
I your Aunt and Uncle are probably lovely people. They’re trying to survive in the same system we’re all stuck in.
Ask yourself this, who is paying the mortgage on those properties? If the renters can afford the rent, they can afford the mortgage and then some. Your aunt and uncle, and all landlords, are collecting a premium on housing, what do they actually provide? If they’re trying to save for retirement, by renting homes, who’s actually paying for their retirement? Will those people be about to afford to retire if they’re spending so much on rent? They’ll end up with nothing when they leave. Your aunt and uncle will still have 3 to 5 extra properties.
They own suburban townhomes, in some cases you find a renter who’d rather not own a home. In most cases, the market has progressed to a point where home ownership is impossible because people are hoarding homes and withholding access for rent.
It’s an unethical system. Your aunt and uncle are small line landlords and a symptom of a larger problem. They’re participating in an unethical system to gain an advantage, and it’s hard to blame them for that. That doesn’t make it ethical, or good.
Jefferson said he “participated in a broken system that he hated.” In reference to slavery. He actively tried to reform that system and was rebuffed. He’s still seen as a slave holding landed gentry today, and it remains a black spot on his (admittedly spotty) legacy. How are the people who owned 3 to 5 slaves different from those who owned 50? How are they compared to those who could afford and benefit to own slaves, and still advocated for abolition?

It’s always funny to me to watch single people who have been skinny their entire life try to coach the world on how to be like them.
There is an entire world outside of your little shell, very few people will fit in to the narrow view of the world you have and those that do don’t need your advice, they already look and eat like you.
There are myriad luxuries that contribute to your, apparently quite successful lifestyle. Had you actually encountered the hardships you claim to be able to resolve with some fucking oats, you’d be able to grasp the true depths of how idiotic the suggestion is.
I congratulate you on your success, but please shut up. The poors are in no further need of out of touch advice, no matter how well meaning.
