I watched a lot of Cat's, and Cat's does Countdown on Youtube from the US, and I'm still a little confused about his situation. He used a legal tax haven to avoid paying taxes on income, right?

It's bad, but that would just be the expectation for anyone here. Offshoring assets is practically a national pastime for those that can benefit from it.

I typed up a bunch of extra caveats; Grammarly said they were superfluous, and I agree. We know US citizens would sell out anyone not directly related to them if it would reduce their tax bill.

I think this is where my dissonance is. Are people in the UK proud to pay taxes? If so, I am envious.

Fun fact: we're as distant now from the release of the PS4 as the PS4 was from the invention of the catalytic converter. Some people think of "old school" gaming as the NES/SNES era of the 80s/90s but in reality it's much more recent than that. Even the PS3 is rightly considered "old school" now: a PS3 was recently uncovered in a family basement in England, and scientists have shown it was last powered on during the reign of Queen Victoria. Many don't know but the Nintendo 64 was actually a popular gift brought back by people who had travelled to Kyoto during the Tokugawa shogunate.

Know your gamer history, people!

Yeah, you just get the Tories to lower your taxes for you if you are rich instead. Beep boop so easy. Or you let your Tory husband do it (if you are Rishi Sunak's wife).

You don’t get rich by saving it, either. Typical household ideas of how wealth and money work don’t apply to the ultra rich. And when you’re dealing with a group that values appearance more than almost anything else, it’s surprising to see how little effort they put into it

I got this title for the dumbest fucking possible take on sea shanties. Specifically, I derailed the meme thread because sailors in the 18th century weren't woke enough for me, and you shouldn't sing sea shanties. In fact, don't have any fun ever.
Trump's posture is quite easy to explain: he has loose suits and stands like that in order to partially hide his fat gut. In that photo, Eric looks like he has a bit of the same problem but not as bad. But I have no loving clue what Don Jr.'s deal is.
