TurboFlamingChicken posted:I wish it was as easy for me. Then again, I do a shitload of subcontractor work so my income isn't as set as yours may be and that was part of the problem however now I'm in a much better situation and the payments are reasonable. Oh yeah, I had a year where I lost my job and did freelance to make ends meet, and they were humongous dicks about documentation. They won't tell you what they want; they just tell you that what you sent them wasn't good enough. If I hadn't gotten a job at just the right moment, they were going to throw me off IBR entirely, which would have been horrible because I'm pretty sure DeVos or some other ghoul will end that program soon enough and I want to be grandfathered in when they do.

My wife and I use Capital One because she's had the account since college. (Like 20 years ago) . The rates are irrelevant because we use it for all of our purchases and then pay it off every month. Then we collect lots and lots of gift cards from all the points we accrue. So, basically laziness.

This is the only sane way to have a credit card these days. Its to have had one for a long time and been well off for all of that time.

Zanzibar Ham posted:No two nations are not on fire. several pages back but thank u for the chuckle as i understand that reference e: we have no credit and can't get a loving credit card and we could really use one. I don't even know where to start anymore. we're with a good regional bank and they have some type of credit card but I don't think we qualify for it. and while we have the money for a modest secured credit card of some type, I could also just use that to pay poo poo up front. it would just be nice to be able to pay something off in two months instead of just all at once. snoo has issued a correction as of 05:10 on Aug 19, 2018 |

lol https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2018/08/19/tangier-island-donald-trump-2016-219349 quote:The summer of 2016 enters its final weeks, the upcoming presidential election looms ever larger on Virginia’s Tangier Island. Tourists travel a harbor channel lined with TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT signs, then step off the boats into a gauntlet of them. Golf carts display Trump bumper stickers at bow and stern. One café and cart-rental business is so adorned with Make America Great Again placards and Trump flags that it looks more like a campaign headquarters.

Potato Salad posted:Tangier Island quote:He did not stop there. “I love Trump,” Ooker declared without the hint of a smile, “as much as any family member I got.” Even after 14 months of exposure to Ooker’s strident political views, I was goggle-eyed. Two thoughts immediately crossed my mind. First: There was no way CNN wasn’t using that. And second: Trump was bound to take notice.

quote:Distrustful of scientists (with whom they’ve often disagreed on matters of bay ecology), staunchly patriotic (Tangier contributed more of its young men to fight in World War II, per capita, than any other town in Virginia), and biblically literalist (man is too puny to so affect the works of God), old-school Tangiermen see their dilemma not as a product of man-induced rising seas, but wind-driven waves that have smacked into its flanks since the Creation. government handouts you say? but you just said man is too puny to affect the works of god quote:Crabs are central to the Tangier economy, as they have been for generations. Everyone was nervous. “There ain’t no crabs, and they’re hurting,” Leon’s daughter Carlene said of the island’s watermen, during prayer requests at church. “We will praise him. The Lord knows we have need of crabs, and he’ll provide.” lol maybe you should have loving listened to the scientists on matters of bay ecology you dumb fucks i'm sure the lord will provide plenty of crabs to wander the crab shacks and churches of tangier once they lie under the sea

etalian posted:lol Yeah I grew up pretty close to there and I have pretty mixed feelings about the good people of Tangier. First off, yeah they're super nice people, especially compared to other isolated communities. But for all their talk of self reliance they have taken an extraordinary amount of money from Virginia's public funds (in the past decade they've received a new power plant, airfield and I think a new school). And the whole sum-game of public discourse can be distilled into how this island reacts politically. We have learned the lessons about how to work with the men and women of Tangier: https://elibrary.ru/item.asp?id=5968808 ^ that's a paper not like a virus or whatever. But we absolutely refuse to go about it the right way. You can see it in the dialogue with the mayor, he wants to understand. He's not wrong about wave action and storms, but that is ~*also a symptom of climate change*~. It's all so stupid because they're like 800 people. What can they do about climate change, realistically? Oooker is not wrong that a seawall is the best thing that would save Tangier, in the short and medium term. Are they going to pay for it? lol, no. All this having been said when they all feel relieved when big daddy trump says 'oh yeah, no you'll be fine, you'll be fine' it is very hard for me to have sympathy. "We just want something done." "Ah yes a phone call with nothing but platitudes will do."
