'm okay, but my insurance just declared my car a total loss. They're offering me $18,000, but I still owe $26,000 on the loan. I'm literally going to be $8,000 in debt for a car I no longer have, all because someone ran a red light. How is this fair⁉️ 😭
@Scott_Wiener What kind of person wants to push young girls out of the way to reward confused, mentally ill or fetishist young men?

@Wheelykingwayne@WorkElizab I just had damage from a deer that wasn’t nearly as bad as this. The bill was just shy of $9000 and that doesn’t include the month and a half car rental.
@Wheelykingwayne@WorkElizab Zero chance that is $4000. Just had a rear quarter panel and rear passenger door replaced and painted. No frame damage. $13,000
Unpopular Opinion but an average Brown Girl looks More hotter than the overhyped Ana de armas and Sydney Sweeney etc...
Real melanin, real curves, hypnotic eyes, and natural beauty that doesn't need Hollywood lighting and CGI.
There’s a disturbing new trend: racist White girls refusing to give Black men their phone numbers when asked.
Experts warn this microaggression triggers deep inherited trauma from segregation-era rejection, causing many Black guys to unintentionally slap back in frustration.
Is it the parents’ fault for not teaching their daughters to share numbers with Black men? Or society’s for failing to instill proper White guilt and reparative dating?
Thoughts?
I really didn’t want to say anything, but here we are… all afternoon the guy across the street has been out doing yard work completely shirtless like he’s at the beach, not in the middle of a neighborhood where families are out walking and kids are riding bikes, and I tried to ignore it at first because it’s not my business, but after hours of it it just starts to feel unnecessary and out of place, especially when this isn’t some private backyard tucked away, it’s right out in the open where everyone has to see it, and at that point it stops feeling casual and starts feeling uncomfortable, and yeah maybe some people won’t care, but not everyone wants to deal with that while just going about their day, so I ended up making a formal complaint just so there’s a record, because if it keeps happening it’s only going to make things more awkward for everyone around here.
Quick math:
$7.27 = federal minimum wage
× 40 hours
× 52 weeks
= $15,080/year
Federal poverty line for a single adult: $14,580
So if you work full time at minimum wage you make...
$500 above the poverty line.
Before taxes.
Before rent.
Before anything.
And they say the system rewards hard work.
it rewards something. Not sure it's that.
I didn’t know about the earliest origin of Memorial Day until I was a grown-ass man, and it’s because some folks didn’t want us to.
In 2021, organizers at an Ohio Memorial Day ceremony muted retired Army Lt. Col. Barnard Kemter for nearly two minutes the moment he began discussing how formerly enslaved Black Americans exhumed the remains of Union soldiers to give them proper burials.

Tom Steyer: “I’m totally in favor of trans athletes in high school. When you understand the vulnerability, the stress, the danger of being a trans kid and you understand almost half of them try to commit suicide. Then you think we’re gonna punish those kids, we’re gonna cut them off from team sport. It’s like, no we’re not”
