And Ebay has been going to absolute shit for a while now. FB marketplace and Amazon absolutely gutted two of their core profit centers.

At “Billionaire” (or even hundreds of millions of dollars) levels of wealth the government should implement a different tax scale based on net worth. Simpler and harder to manipulate. An annual minimum tax bill of 1% of your net worth that cannot be reduced, offset, deferred or otherwise mitigated per billion annually to do buisness in the country, per country.

Just stop them rorting loopholes. I think people would probably hate billionaires a whole lot less if they just paid a FAIR amount of tax.

Edit: actually the math works pretty much all the way down. Everyone should have a minimum income tax bill every year of 1% of their net worth with the only exemption being your primary residence.

All fast food is delicious when cooked with the fresh ingredients and exactly to the standards that they spent many thousands of dollars perfecting in their corporate test kitchens

The problem is that the overcooked patties and the stale buns with too much ketchup and the wilted ass lettuce used by your local franchise and assembled by a 15yo who couldnt give less of a fuck ruin the experience. Thats also assuming you eat it fresh in the “restaurant” not after a 10 minute drive home at which point its fully congealed and the chips are soggy.

A New Hope came out in 1977… Revenge of the Sith came out in 2005.

It is necessary for many, we just old.

I have a love hate relationship with that movie for an interesting reason (IMO). There is not a sympathetic or likeable character in the whole thing.

The only person who isnt actively dislikeable is Ed Harris and he barely qualifies as a character.

I hate that I love his work.

Name another A lister that regularly takes high concept standalone Sci-Fi roles and crushes them.

He did a weird indie film called “The Nines” he can turn the chops on when he wants to. I find it hard to criticise those people because “Hey, want to earn millions of dollars doing this the easy way? Or you can go do some passion projects to prove a point and make less.” Is a damn awkward spot to be in.

Im sure we all like to think we would take the route of Sandler doing Uncut Gems, I love to think that was him just telling his haters to go fuck themselves. “Just because I dont, doesnt mean I cant”

Nah, Will does have range. Theres alot of reasons he is terrible but thats not one of them.

You also arent funding the development of the drug that worked, but also the dozen that didnt.

Not saying they arent predatory, just that the math of “The pill only costs $0.25” is a massive oversimplification.

Mortal Kombat MUST be terrible, I’ll be mad when they make a good one. It’s supposed to be an intergalactic version of a Jean Claude Van Damme movie from the 80s.

Was it an officially endorsed product or just some other grifter cashing in with cheap Aliexpress 3rd party merch because NGL, I thought about doing the latter.

The storage requirements are the real killer, cars become 3 times larger the moment you start dissasembly.

Motorsport CAN be done relatively cheaply… drifing is not one of the cheaper options unfortunately.

Theres a hillclimb circuit near me and I’ve contemplated buying a cheap hatchback just to have something to take out, abuse and upgrade as I can.

I can only really stick at sim racing these days.

No story, no fetch quests, no save scumming or p2w bullshit.

If you tell me I’m not allowed to boo… thats fine. But you cant make me clap.

In my experience most guys who work out, eat clean and get lots of exercise are super conscious of not being “That guy” at their gym, running spots or wherever they go to get their workout on. They also dont tend to have to do a lot of work to meet women outside of that environment. If a guy is handsome, employed and is generally polite and friendly available women will make the advance because as you have found, theres a lot of (even if they are very nice people) guys that well… arent.

SOME things were better in the past. Most were not. Just because someone can you can name a few examples of things that were better doesnt make them right.

IMO they should have made the expanded universe for the adult fans and done their own thing for the PG fanbase.
