Jort Fortress posted:Today I received a denied health claim in the mail. I'm on my wife's plan and needed to mail something back to verify that I don't have another plan before they're willing to process the claim (lol). There's no electronic option, so I try calling their number and it says "We're closed, try during normal business hours", which it currently is. Ok, I'll just mail it, so I head to the local USPS. I had to mail in my extension for filing my 1040 bc the $25 tax s/w wanted $20 more to file an electronic extension. When I went to the p.o. to send it as registered mail it cost me $3.50 and I felt  expecting it to be under $1.

Smythe posted:i just finished reading habermas The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere for class and one thing that stood out to me was the concept that industrial capitalism killed reading and drinking groups and stuff, and then extrapolating from that the og parties were just overgrown squads of bros who chilled out, talked politics, and grouped up to push policies they wanted based on their own political philosphy. once capitalism killed the roots of the party the actual driving power within them was hollowed out and they were easily subverted by the forces of capital into yet another tool of capitalist power and wealth accumulation. Reminder that the “moral outrage” Prohibition was enacted to end wasn’t alcohol like you were probably taught, but that too many ETHNICS were gathering in pubs and talking to each other and getting ideas like “forming unions” and “organizing as a political bloc opposed to their treatment as second-class citizens” America has always been racist and awful, and you’re carrying decades of unexamined propaganda if you were raised there

I'm also about 90% certain one of the posters is on someone's payroll as I can't imagine putting that much effort into daily multiple long form posts that are read by like 20 people.

joepinetree posted:How the gently caress do you spend 1000 on "utilities," especially as a separate category from cell phone, cable and streaming services? Do they have a literal waterfall in their house? UC system charges a shitload for in-state tuition. That plus fees could come out to $18k. The utilities bill is almost certainly water. They're going over the rationing limits, and just paying for it.

The Washington Post posted:The Ukrainians champion the use of face-scanning software from the U.S. tech firm Clearview AI as a brutal but effective way to stir up dissent inside Russia, discourage other fighters and hasten an end to a devastating war. It's like the article's writer presents the effect as unknowable except to the most seasoned experts in the fields of psychology and war, when there are simple empathy-inspired questions: "How would American mothers have reacted if ISIS sent them photos of the faces of the corpses of their children? Would it have pushed them into fighting to end the war?" The only upside is that it gets around Russia lying to families of soldiers that they're not stationed in Ukraine, so the reaction is not totally 1:1 galenanorth has issued a correction as of 23:13 on Apr 15, 2022 |

FFT posted:p much like how the partners at big law firms don't really do much work outside of the rare appearances in court, most of the work is done by paralegals eh people say it but politics came up plenty at bars in the before times, when I went to bars. I'd be willing to bet 'don't talk about politics in polite company' has been an attitude since before the USA existed though.

(Most ignored the question and answered Reagan.) He was a terrible president, but unlike literally every other president in living memory, he seems to actually want to be a decent person. Not saying that he actually is, mind you, but his whole post-presidency is him trying in a seemingly genuine way to be a decent person. The fact that he's the only former president in living memory to do that isn't something that gets enough attention or reflection from libs.
