Physical addiction is a stretch

I still think anyone can do that, just on a smaller scale. Either way, sounds risky. Stocks sometimes go down as it turns out.

Canada. All of the banks I applied at asked for total assets, including TD and Scotiabank.

I’ve never made 6 figures before, but was asked to show my investment portfolio value when applying for a mortgage as it was part of my assets. Assets the bank could seize if I didn’t pay my bill.

TIL I’m the 1%.

Do you think you are disagreeing with me?

This only sounds bad for people with a love of beer and donuts.

Admittedly, I am included within that group. But if I wasn’t, I could see supporting such variable rates.

And that’s why boomers are constantly ‘hacked’.

If you don’t want someone else controlling those things, you do indeed need an account. If you are fine with a physical switch to control lights then just stick to that.

Race car drivers definitely don’t put both feet on the gas pedal though… Like, what?

Just like it’s not popular in Alaska…

Yeah but guns have become so much more efficient since then!

Also…astronauts…

You have just proven you have never been anywhere actually cold, at least not with adequate clothing. What temperature do you suppose people just magically start freezing to death regardless of their clothing?

That’s because your winter is many people’s summer temps.

Naw, they don’t get emotional about work. It’s simply a place they choose to go in exchange for money. I’d worry a lot more about the gossipers and drama people. The people who frame their social life around work…those people scare me.

I’d honestly hire someone who said this lol, they would probably keep their head down and complete their work and then go home.

Meh, I find recognizing I have that ability is actually calming and snaps me out of the depression a bit.

Don’t underestimate the power of social capital.

Naw, I’m down with exploiting others for personal gain but I simply lack the capital to do so in the same way as the ultra rich.

I’m not going to pretend every low income person is some ethical ideal, because I sure as fuck aren’t.

And that’s why like laws and shit are needed to prevent that exploitation or whatever.

I feel the logical conclusion is to just destroy all human created content entirely to avoid being exploited by corporations. But that may not be a reasonable solution.

It would be like an artist refusing to record or perform their music for fear of someone else making money from it or copying the style.

K so…don’t hire them?
