Anecdotal but I know 4 Boomers who retired during covid. I also know a lot of younger folks who opted in to the gig economy instead of working at a store/restaurant, including 3 of my nieces and a nephew. DoorDash went from 850ish mill

I hopped into a Jeep Cherokee that I thought was mine and drove it down the road for a minute before realizing I was not in my vehicle. Keys are funny like that.

LOL I'm 99% anxiety free after I learned to manage my allergies and diet! I make light of the situation now but at one point in my life I was confused and freaked out because of the symptoms you mentioned and everyone including the doc

I grew up with my sisters in poverty. I didn't eat at a restaurant until I was 14 and paid for it myself. I started baking crackers, biscuits and pancakes that my younger sisters and I would eat for dinner with government peanut butter

SF does have a huge homeless population. Yes it go's to homeless shelters and other charities/programs. We sometimes forget that not all homeless are chronic homeless which is what most people associate as homeless. Someone may be

I don't feel like you are being honest. Driving across the state of California is not being nearby. A 4+ hour, 200+ mile, one way drive is not nearby.

You are still surrounded by people with the same ideologies, it's just harder to hear us because of the noise. The people who are pro-censorship and regulation have never been a friend to the internet or its philosophies.

Since when did "high quality" become impossible? lol. Thats news to me. The fact you think Sears was "high quality" is telling. Maybe you have never bought or been exposed to "quality" in the first place? I tot

I think the simple answer is we are mammals and feed our newborns milk and since they usually don't die from their breast feedings we equate milk to being good & nutritional. The fact is, we've discovered clay feeding vessels

Do you shower at the place you are walking or riding your bike? Just sweat your ass off all day long and hope everyone around you doesn't mind? You have about 1-2 minutes before your sweating through your clothing in Houston. It's

As a teen in the early 90's, who was self taught, there is only one correct answer for all questions, RTFM. lol. Man that sucked.

Im in a smaller company of a few hundred employees. We had the option to go back to the office this week. Exactly 3 people are in the office, the same 3 who have remained at the office the entire time. Everyone else chose WFH until it is ma

Outside of a few counties in the US the process is very straight forward.

How? Why would a developer want to lose money housing as many people as possible? At the end of the day your looking to sell or rent for the highest $ per SQ FT possible in your market, with the least amount of risk. If your rent to 50 @ $5

I worked in HMIS for years and the chronic homeless are almost ALWAYS "mentally ill, drug addicts, or most likely an individual suffering from both problems." Additionally, you make a choice to support yourself however you want bu

Property is a decent investment, commercial and industrial you can expect to see nice returns and all expenses are pushed to the tenant. When renting homes, its usually about getting your tenants to pay off the mortgage and then you have ex

For the time you spent typing this comment you could have created a return and had UPS come pick up your package or in my experience, Amazon wouldn't have even required you to return the item and would have just sent you a replacement.

I bet you are technically correct, because support roles are the majority of the positions available. The guys who join a combat arms MOS sign up to fight. I signed up for a 19D slot in 2006.

Ethics? If you agree with UBI, then ethics do not matter. Why negotiate a minority position, take it all.

My 10 year old can start a fire, create a shelter, gather/sterilize water, hunt, trap, clean game and cook it. Humans are scary smart compared to other life and can easily pickup survival skills, manipulate their environments to suit t

I would assume that they setup shop prior to hunting and it was a whole group/village affair to process and preserve the meat. When I grew up we would hunt and process all the deer killed together as a family. I started around 6yrs old

That is total nonsense. I buy nearly everything either made in the US or Europe. Kitchenware, tools, outdoor equipment, clothing, furniture and just about everything else except my phone, tv and computers. It's always excellent, durabl

This strange conspiratorial angle you have going on is ridiculous, there is no narrative and no convincing needed. Look at the facts and educate yourself.
