$64k is a great salary in my area of PA. I’m not familiar with GA but I imagine it’s the same. To put this into comparison, the average household income in GA is $75k and most households are two earners, so yeah, seems pretty good.

1. Trump gives Joe $1mil worth of Cocaine
2. Trump manufacturers a watch at the cost of $10/each
3. Joe buys 10 of these watches for $100k each

That is how you money launder via purchases. It’s more common to use artwork but you get the gist.

Don’t forget AGILE. That should solve all of their problems, right?

I believe the official reason is because it’s a trans-focused instance, and trans people are often downvoted by bigots. But to me, the biggest advantage is escaping the peer pressure of upvotes/downvotes.

I found myself easily swayed by karma on Reddit, and it got so bad that I could barely express myself without trying to copy the Reddit “tone of voice” and agree with everything the hivemind went for. Now that I don’t see downvotes, it forces people to actually have a discussion in the comments if they want to sway my opinion. It feels much more human and has been great for my mental health.

This hits me hard as I’m in the midst of a difficult breakup.

Yikes. I leave my dog in my car all the time for 10 minutes at a time with the AC or Heat blasting. He’s attached to my hip everywhere I go, and when I have to stop somewhere to use the restroom or grab some water he’s totally fine chilling.

Same. I prefer the ultra thins. Anything else really doesn’t feel differently on the receiving end, even the ridged ones.

I’m the same way. I bought Premium when I started sleeping to Thunderstorm Sounds videos and didn’t want ads interrupting my sleep. And I found that it’s nice to watch my ASMR videos and videogame reviews without struggling with ad blockers, etc. Overall I don’t mind spending a couple bucks a month for it. I get that server costs are expensive and the platform needs a way to make money so it is what it is.

My lemmy instance doesn’t support downvotes and I only see upvotes, so feel free to downvote me to oblivion - I’ll have no idea.

Shout out to the bad bitch Margaret Hamilton who was a coder for the Apollo 11 mission. She was a huge inspiration to me as a kid and they made a Lego set that included her.

This isn’t an assassination attempt. Some loser shot out the windows of an empty building overnight.

Yo wtf

There’s been a couple studies. This NYT article summarizes some of them. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/15/business/economy/kamala-harris-inflation-price-gouging.html

The article says that the cause is complex. Corporate profits are part of it, but also increased wages across the supply chain, and strong demand (more people eating at home instead of eating out) vs lower supply (egg shortages, for example). I saw another article suggesting that climate change was also harshly impacting the supply chain, but it didn’t list a solid source.

You should make one!

It feels more like 7pm to me

I’ve never experienced this or heard of this. Has it been like this your whole life or recently started? Either way you’ll want to see a doctor, especially if it only recently began.

Where are you going to go? It seems difficult to relocate to another country without dual citizenship

Very late reply, but can you tell me more about putting a gumband on the dispenser to use less? I’m having a hard time picturing it. Thanks ahead of time!

Oh shit, I thought the Bolt was discontinued. I love my 2021 Bolt and would love to get another when time comes.

I sincerely doubt you could catch herpes or especially HIV from putting your mouth on this or smoking from it.
