George doing that Cyberpunk aesthetic before it was cool.

One of Nickelodeon's first staple show was a program from the early 1980's called 'You Can't Do That On Television'. One of its recurring gags was when people got slimed whenever they said "I don't know".

It has remained a trademark of the network ever since.

Trump is a felon, so I am not sure "lawful" is the best fit.

Understandable. My wife and I drank so much during lockdown that afterwards we quit booze altogether.

Wasn't WhatsApp essentially built from Signal's base protocol anyway? Why use the meta clone when the original is right there?

Tasha should worked on those side-quests before initiating a boss level fight. Rookie move but at least Ryker rolled a nat twenty on his last death saving throw and all it cost him was the ability to shave.

Yep. I guess the point I was implying, and you can really see its effects in the comment section of the original post, is that the headline is misleading and meant as rage bait. The headline implies that the 10% are the ultra wealthy in order to get people worked up. The real story isn't about the super rich as many read this to be. In my opinion the real take on the story is how income inequality in this country is like falling off a cliff. You can be in the top 10% and easily be wiped out by healthcare debt after surviving a single bout with serious illness.

For anyone wondering, the threshold for a household to hit the top 10% is a combined net worth of just under two million dollars (1.92). That's net worth, not cash on hand.

I bring this up because the way net worth is calculated can sometimes be a bit dodgy. You might officially have a net worth of two million dollars, but if you try to cash all of your assets out, you might find that you have considerably less. BUT, you can borrow against the overestimated net worth. So you've got that going for you. Which is nice.

Everyone is doing this shit and you can't opt out.

No judgment if you love yours. I am just noting how expensive ignoring existential dread can get.

 

I watched Flow last night. I went in blind. Anyone seen it? I have thoughts.
