I dont need that much money. I just want a small apartment to foster some cats and play PC games.

My kids sure are enjoying not existing right now.

people really loving this fantasy that men the get live as violent bigots and still have a nice women that love him unconditionally.

also loving WoC never was a redemption from racism, bunch cops love their latina asian wives while brutalizing others.

p.91, panel 3. United States Census Bureau 2018b. To reproduce my figures for the native population, divide each year's number of natives in Adult Correctional Facilities by the native population. Similarly, the foreign-born rate equals the number of foreign-born in these facilities divided by the foreign-born population.

p.92, panel 1. United States Census Bureau 2018b. To reproduce my figures for naturalized citizens, divide each year's number of incarcerated naturalized citizens by the number of naturalized citizens.

p.92, panel 2. United States Census Bureau 2018b. To reproduce my figures for non-citizens, divide each year's number of incarcerated non-citizens by the number of non-citizens. Note: If illegal immigration exceeds conventional estimates, then as a matter of arithmetic, conventional estimates overstate the criminality of non-citizens.

This comic book was made by two famous authors : Bryan Caplan, and Zach Weinersmith(, creator of SMBC).

One of the strongest argument made by the book was a bit too quickly included in my thread, here it is with more words :

There is something goofy going on such that I stopped seeing updates on this community. Not sure if its piefed or lemmy but I have found there is some blocking going on with piefed and im in the process of maybe going back to mbin or finding a piefed instance that is dedicated to minimal blocking/defederation. As some may know from my comments I have a rough situation going on so its gotta sorta fit between me doing stuff I really need to do (on hold for figuring out my 2026 insurance where its in one system but not showing in another) so this switch over is not high priority. Some may be pretty happy to stop the daily dp but I hope to sort out my identity in the federation and get back to the little daily practice. I was going to stop when I got a job but unfortunately that is not gonna happen although I may be substitute teaching soon.

There was a local item for kids new years at noon today and I was talking with my wife that I feel like that would make more sense to do on actual new years day since you are still kinda celebrating the new year that has arrived even if noon is a bit arbitrary. I do enjoy throwing up the various major cities new years countdowns as they pass. Usually by the time I get around to it I have to play catchu up starting with auckland which I have not even started today yet but then again I think the firework displays tend to not get uploaded for a few hours.

Wait we can do whatever we want if society does not care about us becuase I live in the US?!

I felt like posting this one because what it portrays is the way I feel about the internet. I feel it started with a lot of useful information and some screwing around and some total bs. I then feel useful info grew linearly while screwing around grew exponentially while the totaly bs has grown at a much higher factorial.

I just don't get how people bought the whole trickle down economics. You look at tax rates since ww2 and lowering taxes has continually lead to worse outcomes. Our biggest bumps have been from the clinton and obama tax increases.

So the holidays got me off schedule and I did not post the DP since xmass eve. Just gonna list the links here. Sorry that it makes it a bit harder to casually look over.

I often feel this because I have been kinda successful but had a single income and high medical costs (in us) and it kinda annoyed me how much I had and have to push for money when im not exactly a big money motivated person. I often wonder how many people are working at a deficit and how they manage to keep going given any social services in the us get cut off way before the amount needed to get by.

I get this. As an adult your calling the economic shots. My wife and I in a necessities only survival mode but when times have been better we will tend to get things we need or want as it goes discussing it a bit if its something priced at a significant level (something on the level of a tank of gas or an electric bill). We don't get things if our budget does not allow so anything gift wise would be things that we should not be spending on or just avoiding getting something and earmarking it as a holiday gift. Then again we always laugh at the shows where the person is upset at getting a nice new vaccum. When we have been in better situations getting like a remodeling done is like, ok this is christmass for everyone for like the next three years.
