There’s an actual limit to profit, they are called profit margins and different industries have different profit margins.

I would argue that banking is a number in a ledger but money and banking are not the same thing.
- Comment on In 2018, Macaulay Culkin recreated an iconic scene from Home Alone, 33 years later. 1 week ago:
From Wikipedia: In December 2018, Culkin announced that he would legally change his name to “Macaulay Macaulay Culkin Culkin” after holding a vote through his website to choose a new middle name, with “Macaulay Culkin” winning the vote over four other candidates.[58][59] He announced in April 2019 that the legal name change process had been completed.[1]

I would tie a really really long string to the lever and attach the string to a large bird and then scare it into flying away. Then I would go to Albertsons and buy some delicious Heinz Baked Beans

How come when you call 1-800-GOT-JUNK Lisa from “Legal” department has a prerecorded greeting to let you know that all calls are recorded? I wasn’t going to ask if they could dispose of a dead body

Nobody says that’s ALL you have to do. How are you taking this personally? How do you think the tip is secretly meant as an insult? I can see that if you’ve thought about this a lot and tried many things, I see how it could be frustrating to see simple tips like this. Regardless, your reading more into people’s personalities and their intentions than is really there.

The comment doesn’t imply that everyone who can’t find a partner is unkempt, it’s just a recommendation to help people out.

Nine years for killing two women is a disgrace.

I didn’t mean to argue against your point but they became billionaires somehow. There are people who are becoming billionaires today and their wealth accumulation could be limited, but maybe not if we only focus on existing billionaires, seems like more than one approach is needed. I don’t think billionaires are good for society… They have too much power

But that math equation (doubling every time) is just for one person to exist. It’s not making any assumptions about shared ancestry or the current population vs the ancestry population
- Comment on Gandalf failed to consider incest, half my ancestors are related baby 1 month ago:
If you go back far enough it would require like a billion people thousands of years ago when there weren’t that many people alive. I’m confused now

This seems like a right wing meme. Really, at first I didn’t see this was a shit post so that’s my bad.
- Comment on Relationship goals 1 month ago:
How come the meme basically says that the boyfriend cleans and also takes it in the ass? Not to demonize ass stuff but this seems like it says boyfriends who clean are gay… Am I missing something

- Comment on Absolutely nothing happened June 1989 2 months ago:
Wikipedia indicates there wasn’t a massacre in Tiananmen square: “Several people who were situated around the square that night, including former Beijing bureau chief of The Washington Post Jay Mathews[f] and CBS correspondent Richard Roth[g] reported that while they had heard sporadic gunfire, they could not find enough evidence to suggest that a massacre took place on the square”
“In 2011, three secret cables from the United States embassy in Beijing agreed there was no bloodshed inside Tiananmen Square.[244] Instead, they said Chinese soldiers opened fire on protesters outside the square as they fought their way from the west towards the center.[244] A Chilean diplomat who had been positioned next to a Red Cross station inside the square told his US counterparts that he did not observe any mass firing of weapons into the crowds in the square itself, although sporadic gunfire was heard. He said that most of the troops who entered the square were armed only with anti-riot gear.”
While they do provide sources that say the student death toll was likely high, most sources estimate over 500.
I’m just trying to be factual- the students were funded and supported by Western forces including the United States, probably not to help the students and spread democracy and capitalism, but to create division. The students clashed with China’s fucked up communist government and military. There’s not too many possibilities when a civilian force clashes with a state military.
