you don’t realize how much your environment affects your mental state until you finally spend time somewhere that feels calm and your body stops feeling tense for once

what’s a medical misogyny that you've witnessed or experienced that made you realize the system was never built for us?

The Department of Justice is acknowledging it has removed from its website news releases about criminal cases related to the Jan. 6, 2021, riot, calling the information about the prosecutions “partisan propaganda.” abcnews.link/A8W2vOT

This is where the “tax the rich” crowd lose me. Say I earn 90k a year and in 2027 I inherit $200,000 I invest that $200k and after 10 years in the stock market it’s now worth $400k If I sell it and realise the $200k capital gain, what the govt and the “tax the rich” crowd are saying is that I should be taxed as if I make $290k every year. Now if I try and split that CGT income across 2 people I’m “greedy” and avoiding tax But if I sell down in 4x $100k lots over 4 years and minimise my tax, that’s ok and nobody bats an eyelid - but it’s the same principle.

@beerandtokens In 1985, I was making $5/hr and paying $400/month for a 1-bdrm apartment; so like 60%+ of my monthly salary went to pay my rent. Avg price in my city for an apt now is $1200-1400, with min wage at $15. It's about the same ratio of income as the 80s.

This was legit a 5 second search on Auto Trader. All these cars have less than 200k miles. All under $7k

Zoomers on here are like "I'm 27 and can't buy a $400k house or afford to spend $50 on doordash, the system is rigged!" Like kid, I had 2 roommates till 29, and then 1 till 33 when I bought my own house. Cooked and meal prepped 90% of what I ate for 20 years. Y'all are bitches
