I wonder if there is a fragment of a good idea in there. Maybe a dating app that like queues up men and doesn’t let the next one out of the queue until the active person gets matched to someone.

Though that sounds pretty slow and not enough dopamine in using the app to keep people on it.

Maybe not a single man, but some small amount so it is known that you can’t just screen for the 1% of dream guys. Like if you only get 5 swipes, maybe you won’t be as ready to dismiss everyone immediately.

Whatever, I’m sure there are teams of psychologists working for all those companies that have all this crap dialed in for max profit and engagement.

That’s just self sabotage talking. Knowing about a problem is step one and it’s what gets you in the door.

Just because you know you’ve got a broken pipe doesn’t mean you don’t need a plumber, just because you know your car is broken doesn’t mean you don’t need a mechanic, etc. There’s nothing wrong with someone helping you being a job. That doesn’t mean they won’t do that job.

The main point of therapy is to get you to look at your circumstances in different ways and provide you with coping skills you may not necessarily have developed. You may even be unaware of whatever current maladaptive coping mechanisms you’ve built up over years of just trying to survive. This is where outside professional perspective comes in handy.

However! That’s not to say therapy is a bulletproof process or that all therapists are good or that every therapist is a good fit for every person. I would liken it to finding your preferred barber or massage therapist or something. Sometimes you just got to try options till something works.

I dunno, boobs are more pleasant to look at than other crap I see on vehicles.

Imagine selling EV’s to a group of people then surprised Pikachu facing when you turn your back on them and tell them they are infected by empathy and a “woke mind virus.”

Imagine being so full of yourself that you Nazi salute away your entire international sales because guess what, the rest of the world doesn’t think it’s funny either.

Imagine.

Mr. Montag, you are looking at a coward. I saw the way things were going a long time back. I said nothing. I am one of the innocents who could have spoken up and out when no one would listen to the ‘guilty,’ but I did not speak and thus became guilty myself.

Funny, I made the same mistake and was wondering if the watch assists in counting cards.

Ah, but I thought the point of this thread was to keep the insurance pain building, so if we want higher premiums, should it be slash all 4 so they can claim it and wreck their rates?

Are tires usually covered by insurance?

So dual wielded super soakers, one bleach filled, one vinegar filled!

I too have ADHD and am impatient (combined type, severe). Impatience is not an excuse for financial illiteracy. And a graduated income tax is not complicated. Deductions, credits, exceptions, etc are where it gets complicated. But if he thinks he’s losing money by making more money, then he’s stupid.

Reading your other responses, you’re right. Not knowing something doesn’t make someone stupid. Refusing to learn something when you find out you don’t know it, that’s what makes someone stupid. Willful ignorance is stupid.

At the very least, he should just admit he knows nothing about it and just take your word for it. Deferring to others expertise in areas you are weak is smart.

Your partner is a moron who doesn’t understand relatively simple math.

Yessss, anger the old people. Do it. They are the most reliable voting group.

Can you show me data to justify TSLA for even trading at as high a price as it has considering it’s assets, quality control, competition, product launch failures, etc?

As far as I’m concerned, it’s BEEN overvalued to hell just on the back of Elon Musk’s name. So why can’t it swing back the other way for the same reason?

Well I assume when talking from a government perspective, the conversation is going to inevitably become about highschool sports and whatnot. Where I still definitely don’t want to touch this with a 10 foot pole!

Games are supposed to be fair. Unless you’re going to completely desegregate men and women’s sports, there’s a real biological argument to be made here. To pretend otherwise is delusional.

Yeah I’m not touching this with a ten foot pole. This is so low priority.

Too obvious imo, would consume more resources if investigation were required. If you had a few more deductions and losses on the other hand, that reduces your tax burden and boom.

This seems like a good time for everyone to cheat on taxes.

I rescued baby raccoons from a dumpster once.

The egg quality can be night and day though. The cheapest supermarket brand eggs I can get always seem pretty thin and watery compared to organic free range. We could also sell the surplus to neighbors (building up local neighborhood relations, which have languished is modern era).
