  • There actually are a few rich folks that see the need for more taxation at the high level and such. They sorta get there is only so nice money can make their lives before you get to the point where the earth in general has to get better to improve their quality of life. Many though seem caught up in some sorta game to have the most. Stan ridgeway has a great line in his I want to be the boss song about that. I have said before that I could only get so rich because if I got to a certain point im not going to be chasing that stuff and would chill like the my space guy.





  • You know its kinda funny. Im a masker but during the pandemic I was amazed at things people seemed to do or say they do. On the one side you had neighbors using their dog to trades stuff and its like. Um a big warm biologically active surface. Not the smartest. Then like people don’t seem to understand distancing and masking in terms of math. Outdoor is different than indoor and ventilation matters. I had some people saying they did not go outside during lockdowns (not lockdowns like someone actively had it in the household but city wide ones). Its like you can go outside just don’t get within ten feet. That being said really early on when we did not know shit my wife would spray down deliveries with lysol and only opened them to check what they had but left them be until needed rather than putting them on shelves and such.



  • I feel like this is action dependent. I mean if you decide to do something in an hour or the next day, week, month, year. and you mull it over and kinda go back and forth. I dunno. Now when things come out at you like an accident or your attacked. I think later you think about moving and doing things but maybe the point in time your limbs are moving and thinking about it later your like. I tried to shield my face like you made the decision but in reality your reflexes went off before it reached your brain.











  • if you have a rice cooker you can cook lentils with the rice and they are so small it cooks right up. Can add any veg or spices you like and the key with the rice cooker is the harder something is to cook the smaller you need to cut it up. I know you said veg but you can throw raw chicken in if its cut up small enough without poisoning yourself. I put that in just to showcase the cutting things ups small. You just can’t beat beans and rice for macronutrients vs cost. If you want to go for a superfood that is not to expensive buckwheat is amazing.



  • I will say this. It annoys me when I see stuff like. Well these folks are stupid so they deserve it. I have definately known folks who can’t do whats necessary to not be messed up in the us and its part of the reason we need real social democratic systems and safety nets. The us has this thing expecting everyone to be a jack of all trades for everything and being smart about every aspect of life. Everyone can’t be a doctor, a lawyers, an accountant, a mechanic, and a all the various trades needed to properly handle property. I mean look whats expected with our taxes. Its nuts. Any society should run such that people can work a job and blow their paycheck every week and still do fine. Maybe not high on the hog but have food and shelter and healthcare and transportation and education if they need it. Because if we don’t we are going to just create a bunch of problems that then get duct tape type solutions which is pretty much what you see in the us.


  • yeah I mean even if you take 0 for them that would bring down an equivalent number of folks with 2k and we know the opposite situation occurs with c suite folks and such having real high numbers. Even then if it is 20somethings it still highlights an issue we have now that was not the case 50 years ago. 20somethings can’t save at all. 30somethings if they are lucky can start to save but kinda want a house someday so wants to save some in a regular way (which is also smart. its very important to have a short term savings no matter the tax advantage of retirement savings). It they are lucky maybe they can swing the mortgage in their 40’s but that puts a damper on retirement savings as well given mortage payments. So like 50’s you can finally really start socking it away for your impending retirement. again if you are lucky.
