My mom was gonna use the money to pay taxes but when I told her that the check was taxable income she flipped a lid and said she wouldn't cash it. She then blamed Al Gore

Can't spend my stimulus money because a dumb gently caress scammer got my bank card info and used it to buy books on Amazon. Cancelled the card and now have to wait for sometime next week for a new one to arrive.

3. I have to pay taxes on my $1,200 stimulus check.

No. The good news about your stimulus check is that’s tax-free. You will not owe income taxes on your stimulus check.

You were misled.

quote:

While the above metric is fairly straightforward, the CARES Act’s use of the Internal Revenue Service’s (IRS) tax infrastructure to facilitate these payments has caused substantial confusion. That’s because legally the payment is considered a tax credit advanced to the recipient from the (future) 2020 tax return — that is, the return the recipient will file in 2021. This has led some to believe that the payment either needs to be paid back in full in 2020, or that the payment is considered taxable income, or that the payment counts against one’s 2020 tax refund. None of these conclusions, however, is true.

That’s because another provision written into the law dictates that recipients of the economic impact payment will be credited as if they had paid the government back. This makes the payment a non-taxable fund that does not affect future returns.

This post just reminded me of a story - the only time I ever wanted to punch an old white woman in the face. When I was at my grandma's funeral I was just trying to be by myself and deal with my grief and a bunch of strangers would just come up to me to tell me it was god's plan. On what loving planet do you think that is what I want to hear right now?

I don’t know what this means but I have the sudden urge to illegally tackle you.

Edit - I have just been informed this is a reference to K-Pop. My original sentence stands.

Was feeling blue last night so I decided gently caress it and ate more than usual for a midnight snack. Woke up feeling like poo poo and wanting to throw up. Gonna hold onto this lesson. Eating too much just sets my weight loss back and I feel like poo poo afterwards. Not worth it.

Maybe you could consider drinking milk or something that's a bit more "filling" than water? I dig into soy milk when I get random midnight cravings just before sleep. Small chocolates also work.
