I just got an email from my landlord that my rent is increasing by $90 a month. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten a raise that worked out to that much. Am I just supposed to die eventually as soon as possible?

Yes. As far as I can tell, that is what the corporate overlords want.

Also, for some reason, all of the insurance companies on healthcare.gov have jacked up all premium around 200 bucks before tax credit discounts. Either to collect the additional tax credits offered the last couple of years due to inflation or just because there are limited controls on prices of plans on healthcare.gov

Yes, UHC would control this kind of thing.

when i was little i loved watching john stossel on 20/20.. he was all like, "give me a break" and i was like 'hell yeah'. i've totally forgotten what the segments were about but just liked how he said it. didn't find out until like 10 years later that he was just this huge libertarian that hated the government giving help to people because once "you give it to them you can't take it back" and apparently that's what segments he was running the whole time on 20/20

anyways my point is, even though i watched him in my childhood. i still turned out to not want to actively harm other people just because the government was using tax money to help them. so that guy posting a stossel vod non-ironically: seek help. you are not as nice as you think you are.

That stupid rear end in a top hat John Stossel told a 1980's wrestler "I think this stuff is all fake" and the guy smacked the poo poo out of him.



After he got up, the guy smacked him again, lmao

The wrestler got fired but was revered among his peers from then on.

" Oh I work at Walmart, how do I cope with inflation? "

I'm not even really joking, look into community College, bust out an AS in something there's a market for with a low-ish skill ceiling, and start over.

Yeah it sucks and you'll be busy as hell but community College can be pretty cheap, and you can always try to get a degree that transfers to 4 year.

I have this friend who always uses "Wal-mart workers" as his shorthand for useless do-nothing people.

He makes high five figures as a computer toucher for the state of Florida.

He's shut the gently caress up about all this since the pandemic when all those worthless people were classified as "essential" and he got told to take his non-essential rear end to the house for 6 months since literally no one on Earth actually needed him to do the thing he got paid multiples of a Wal-mart worker to do. Believe me, THAT was a seriously enjoyable conversation, and we haven't had a similar one since!

Hello I wish to tell you a story about Bula Vinaka. I bought them a buff chili dog Sonic for an avatar. They changed the avatar back. I bought it again (pretty sure too lazy too look it up), and yet again they changed it back and gave me the avatar. I would still have that avatar had somebody not bought me the one I presently have.

I've been selling plasma. It's a pretty good racket if you're poor, and don't mind needles. Twice a week I wake up, go read a book for an hour while I'm drained of my precious life force, and then go on with my day.

I'd rather donate plasma. I'm not actually poor per se, I just chose a career that was enjoyable and fulfilling, but not, you know, monetarily. The plasma selling isn't to make ends meet or anything, it's just to get some easy spare cash. So, not desperate enough to code yet.

Lol, sorry to hear about your worthless plasma. Mine is too precious to just give away. No, that's very decent of you. I'd likely do it for free now that I've seen what it entails, but it's nice to get cash, and the folks using it are getting rich as poo poo in our for profit hell system, so they aren't getting this poo poo for nothing.
