Unfortunately billionaire doesn’t really work either. Nobody’s becoming a billionaire in 3 months.

There is no word that easily rolls off the tongue. We’re stuck with multi-millionaire.

Regular millionaires are everywhere. They have a house that’s probably worth a half-mil, which is super common, and then combined retirement savings for two people of $250k each at age 50 and poof, there’s your millionaires.

Being a millionaire is middle class. What’s worse is that it takes being a millionaire to be middle class.

US automakers: ban the import!

Plenty of stereotypes, especially in TV and movies, paint public transportation as populated by the poor and downtrodden, and therefore anyone out of their comfort zone on a bus or subway is a target for mugging or worse.

It’s just classism and racism.

And IMO also it would be highly unlikely that the average person would understand that driving is indeed more dangerous, at best most would only parrot the statement back.

Fox would like a word…

That too, but I’ve ordered from Aliexpress and other than the long shipping time I had to wait in order to cut out the Amazon middle man the product worked just fine and was as described. It appeared to be the same thing as what was being offered online elsewhere in the US. But yeah, it’s roulette. You never know if you’re actually going to get a decent product.

The thing is that it’s going to be consumer “Amazon-grade” products that are like this. There’s tons of stuff made in China that goes unseen, from automotive electronics to power grid components that lasts for a good service life and may not fail until damaged by an outside problem.

Well, if the Greeks had had climate change they might’ve been right.

They always try to fuck each other over in their crabs-in-bucket way, either trying to con their way to the top or destroy each other on the way down.

Trump threatens ____________ over ___________.

Repeat again in a day or two.

I mean…my handle here is proof enough what happened.

I used Narwhal, IIRC Reddit made it official and then killed it when they started their own app, I bought Apollo because good app and dev, then reddit killed that one too. Along with all the other BS they did, that was the final straw. Been here ever since.

So that means either trump or Putin will.

I think he’s like most long-time actors. He’s had some great roles that wouldn’t have been anywhere near as good had someone else done it, and he’s had “meh” and flops.

You can’t act for 40-ish years and not have a mixed bag.

“Lila” is a name applied to a picture with text written by the author attempting to emotionally manipulate the reader into forming some sort of attachment to the image.

Maybe I’m too cynical, but the internet has soured me to these stories. Like the “trolley test” trying to force the viewer to choose between who dies, I see the man behind the curtain making the reader responsible for the results, and they can get fucked.

“Youth safety initiatives”

Just more ID and tracking requirements that people will have to upload so these megacorps can profit off of and sell your data amongst themselves.

Every hotel ever these days it seems. I guess it’s cheaper than replacing a curtain, or the curtain rod every jackass seems to have to yank on and bend for some reason.

Complicit in their ineffectiveness.

It needs to yell it at a startling volume compared to what you were listening at.

Tyvm!

I really think those fictional immortals are as real as they get. They become the cruelest elite divorced from the rest of humanity. More isn’t enough.
