Gorillas in San Diego Zoo on the Mend after Catching COVID-19.

^My weekly shopping costs are unchanged. Except when I buy beef jerky...why the hell is that so expensive!

Im all mixed up in this nuworld. Is "fascist" the new word for "racist"?

Cyberpunk 2077’s new 1.1 update introduces a game-breaking bug.

SpaceX set to launch its next Starship prototype on Monday.

I dunno all the rules. In the picture Pidesco posted all the "ok" symbols were pointing up. If the "ok" symbol is pointing down is that ok? Oh crap, thats the "made you look" symbol then. Were in a real pickle here.

Does this mean "loser" now, or can they still use the letter "L"?

It would be kinda hilarious if they took up a campaign to corrupt every single ASL hand sign. So once "corrupted", never to return to normal?

I assume youre referring to the US. Have you observed a reversal of this trend in Europe with their free education opportunities?

I watched the first 3 episodes of WandaVision. Pretty good so far.

This stuff writes itself!

If that ever happened then:

According to Google, the US uses two different estate tax systems. Theres a flat 40% applied by the Federal government, but thats only applicable above 11.5M / person. Then theres 18 states that use a mixture of estate and inheritance taxes, some as low as 1M. We can argue that most people, including myself, will never be subject to those taxes, but that doesnt change the fact that taxes were already paid annually on properties and wages. Increase the initial taxes on property and wages, sure. But to double tax, even though only the wealthy will be affected, bugs me.

Inheritance tax just rubs me the wrong way. Taxes were already paid the first time on the property / wages, so it just seems like double dipping to tax the "inheritance" again just because it changed people.

@Boeroer Are you a carpenter by trade?

Ive read that one of Sputnik 5 side effects is +5 resistance to vodka. So if thats your drink you might want to choose an alternative.

Which one will you choose?

Says you! I for one cant wait to whip out a 100T bill:

You guys have convinced me of the error of my ways. If US born, white, male, college educated people cant make it in this crazy world then what hope is there for me? Please send me l00t. I accept Zelle through Chase bank.

Seems like Christians should be following the good book instead of standing around with their pockets turned out: You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor. Luckily Im not religious so I want my bag.

You know what would fix everyone's money and guilt conscience () problems and usher in a utopian society? UBI.

*squints* Seriously?

Bummer! Im poor too but somehow Im on my third house ownership, and I plan to leave it to my kid when I retire to Mexico.
