    Man I never had avocado toast until one time I went to my parents, haven’t had it outside that. As a 36 year old who taught my mother how to process? (Cut in half, stab the pit with the knife turn and slice as wanted) I feel my mother will forever think I eat them all the time. I’ve consumed maybe ~25-30 in my 36 years… That should be roughly $30 U.S. for my life. The fact that they are more than .60 cents is ridiculous now.

    Sidenote: lifetime Starbucks expenditures, less than $25



  • Some of that may also be that the secret service doesn’t allow for to much non “closely controlled” environments. Not sure exactly how that works, but I assume you have to let them know where you are going to be in advance and they figure out who is going to be there and set perimeter and everything else, which if you are nervous I imagine you fall into a “I should prepare for this interview” having hours/possibly days to do so.



  • It was absolutely ridiculous he pardoned his family and shit, but it was absolutely necessary because the person entering office had campaigned on trying to arrest them on anything and everything without ever being able to show any proof or solid claims about what they were trying to arrest any of them for. Biden would have been an idiot not to do the pardons. But the real key was Biden trying to get congress to put it in writing that a president wasn’t immune from prosecution for acts performed as president. He wasn’t choosing the wording, congress was supposed to legislate it… Yet they didn’t want too, which says to me that there was a lot of members in Congress that wanted a king.


  • Yeah, I live more in the realm of having emptied my 401k twice after leaving different jobs because the only other option was homelessness. Have I made bad decisions in life, never intentionally… but owning a home is being taken off the possibilities for me. At 36 it’ll be years before I ever have 1000s in the bank, let alone the 20% of 400,000 or whatever a small house will cost in future. Shit they turned me down to get a car loan and buy a used Kia which left me with a broken down vehicle and losing my job because I couldn’t transit 104 miles a day to the decent paying job I landed. So now I’m getting paid 1/3 to half of it on a job I found I can work from home. I’ll make rent and food, but retirement is likely out of the picture.
