@Whataburger I got bored, do you like my decoration. (These were obviously all donated and I would NEVER “steal” a number”

ANTHONY PACK JR. THREE HOME RUN PERFORMANCE 🔥 He becomes the first Longhorn with 3 HR in an NCAA baseball tournament game 💥

@kamikazecash I’m 27, this isn’t even a question

If you could opt out of Social Security right now, abandoning everything you’ve already paid into it, would you do it?

Oh so he's too scared to go to DKR but would be happy to host or play neutral site? Give me a break. "Here's an offer that primarily benefits us and bolsters our schedule strength, but we will only play at home or neutral and you're scared if you don't take it!!!" Pathetic

@KarenBassLA Are you running for mayor of Ho Chi Minh City?

Angelenos need leaders willing to stand up and speak out. Jane has never been afraid to do either

Henry's stab wounds were so severe that he would have died whatever the police did, but at the same time his injuries were so slight that the officers didn't notice them and decided it was a good idea to handcuff him.

If Tech actually wanted to beef up their non-conference schedule I’m sure there are P4 teams who would oblige. But they’d rather score PR points by making Texas (who already plays one of the hardest schedules in the country) tell them no. All because Sark hurt their feelings.

@RealSportReview @SoFi Every HYSA in America has dropped their rates in the last 24 months

Advertised 4.5% interest for my high yield savings account to get us in and then slowly over the next 2 years dropped it down to 3.1%. Thanks @SoFi

@dannywgoodwin Let me introduce you to baseball

Basketball's the only sport where people care who the ref is. No football fan is like "Ron Torbert's on the call tonight? We are FUCKED"

What on earth is Goode doing, you're trying to run someone down in a rundown. Throw the ball

@Billy_Banned @gkamstra Almost all of the states revenue is from sales taxes. It would be silly to lower the sales tax rate because of a good year.

@gkamstra If they ran a surplus then they overcharged the taxpayers and 100% of it should go back to the people who were FORCED to pay under penalty of law.

Texas ran a $33b surplus in 2023. Voters approved moving $1b of that into an endowment for parks, and now the state is on track to add ~1 new state park per year for a decade. You love to see it!

@lllliatttt You missed Fort Worth, the 10th biggest city in America. But also, suburbs.

what the fuck. where do 3/4 of americans live if not in the 250 cities i can name off the top of my head

@banjosupreme @BuchananSpencer @Fair_and_Biased You’ll complain about your 30% sales tax too

@jake_fitch12 @BuchananSpencer @Fair_and_Biased The many other forms of taxes. Preferably, a consumption tax.

I mean, property taxes are unfair in general. You OWN the land.… But you have to keep paying the govt for it… And if you don’t pay they will confiscate it. Sure, the house you bought in 1970 may have appreciated in value and your taxes went up with it, but unless you want to sell that house, there’s no upside for you. You’re in the same house, you don’t plan to leave, you may be retired, and your taxes are now higher.

@banjosupreme @BuchananSpencer @Fair_and_Biased Okay, where does the money come from. You still haven’t solved that part.

Break the model. The money should go with the kid, not the assigned local public school. The system is broken and designed to sustain itself not actually educate. Give the money to the parents (with restrictions and guidelines). It’ll cost half as much and be far more beneficial. Most kids don’t belong in school beyond age 12 anyway. Many need to go into a trade. We dumbed down school so a high school degree is meaningless and a bachelors degree is becoming meaningless.

@mhMark__ @regalnerd @NEETzscheIDDQD They are sent to the program and the program immediately sends it to someone else. My money is gone, it does not exist.

@jake_fitch12 @regalnerd @NEETzscheIDDQD They are sent to the program itself which is a shared pool/fund of payroll taxes, that the “someone else” has contributed financially to their whole life.

Social Security is LITERALLY a handout. Paying taxes in the past doesn't make your welfare today not welfare.

Let me explain something to Democrats commenting on Talarico being a “seminarian,” apparently believing that automatically makes him the Christian choice. And you probably won’t get it, but that’s okay. I’m going to explain it anyway. In the Book of James, people who assume the mantle of teacher but spread heresies are said to have “stricter” judgment that your average sinner. False teachers are repeatedly warned against throughout the scriptures, described as the worst types of wolves. In other words, while you can point to Paxton’s past transgressions, and that’s fair to talk about, you need to understand that what Talarico does and has done is no less sinful. And for the average devout Christian who isn’t part of a progressive heretical body, they see that and know that. You may not get it. You may think all this Christian stuff is just about saying a few words. But it’s not. Heresy is a grave sin, and something Christians are expressly told to flee from. So Christians are going to take that issue seriously in this race, even if it seems silly, unimportant, or unfair to you because you think, “Well, Talarico is nice so that makes him righteous.” Not how it works.

This is one of the most terrifying things I've ever read.

@mhMark__ @regalnerd @NEETzscheIDDQD Social security is literally what that is? I deposit 15ish% of my salary into social security and Medicare every two weeks and it is then immediately taken and given to someone else. It is not a shared account, it is a direct asset transfer.

@jake_fitch12 @regalnerd @NEETzscheIDDQD When was the last time you heard of someone depositing into someone else’s bank account every 2 weeks for their lifetime. You could argue that it’s a shared account that someone else has misused/misappropriated

@dehlers2 Your social security and Medicare is my money actually

These anti boomers are pissing me off now. They've been at it all day. I paid for my home. Period. I will either sell, or will it to my children. Period. I paid into Social Security for over 50 years. That is my money. Period. I paid into Medicare for over 50 years. My money. Period. I paid into investments, and savings. My money. Period. You want to reach your greedy hands on what I earned and paid into? Fuck you!
