I think if you raised the average numeracy of Americans by 25%, the number of small retail businesses would drop by 70%

ICE has detained this mentally ill US citizen in the Miami Detention Center in Indiana (an immigration prison) b/c he's deluded himself into believing he's the son of a Jamaican Prime Minister, even tho he has a Florida birth certificate. ICE really wants to deport him.

New: Gov. Greg Abbott must let his political opponent, Gina Hinojosa, review more than 1,000 pages of his unredacted communications with Elon Musk, a Travis County Dem judge rules. Abbott likely to appeal before Hinojosa reviews anything. #txlege news.bloomberglaw.com/litiga…

The discourse inspired by this is so ridiculous it’s actually fun and perfect. Stacy’s mom obviously left Stacy’s grandma or (not-hot) grown up sister in charge while on business trips, duh

In the lyrics to Stacy's Mom, it's implied that Stacy is the same age as the narrator, which is probably somewhere in middle school or early high. But if her dad walked out, and her mom goes on business trips, does this mean a teenage girl is just being left in her house alone?

Just chatted with a conservative-leaning independent in El Paso who voted: Senate: left blank Governor: Abbott U.S. House: Escobar (D) Ticket splitters! They still exist!

Everyone hates the spend down + Medicaid thing but no one seems to have a better alternative (Take Care of Granny At Home doesn’t count bc you can already do that + Pay Me To Take Care Of Granny At Home is mostly worse)

I genuinely don’t understand how ordinary people are supposed to afford assisted living for their aging parents. Some facilities charge upwards of $10,000 A MONTH. That’s $120,000 a year just to make sure your parents are properly cared for. How is the average family supposed to afford that?

It’s honestly pretty great that we live in a country where you can still get old age care regardless of your adult children’s ability or willingness to either quit their jobs and do it themselves or pay full price for it

Earnest take: I think it’s probably not healthy for the practice of democratic self-government that so many people have developed strong rooting interests in elections in countries they don’t live in.

Bad discourse tbh. Bunch of people saying “I like to make a nice lil variety of meals that make my spouse and family happy within our budget and time constraints even tho it’s hard sometimes” and a bunch of others saying “you and they should simply not care”

Why is this such a difficult thing for women? Nearly, every woman I know (except Mom, who still has a rigid schedule for each night) struggles to think dinner. Not actually MAKE dinner, but think of what to make and this is an incredibly stressful thing for them.

No lil Easter eggs or fun new thoughts in here! Very little fun absurdity since “omg leftovers have histamines” was already eaten by door dash discourse. Just hating on people for liking nice effortful things that they actually *do*. 👎👎

The only other thing is that “ugh gotta go figure out dinner” is probably misinterpreted by a lot of people as “ugh gotta go do this oppressive horrible thing” when it’s more like “ugh gotta get off this call here is my reason” or “gotta do my least favorite chore”

I actually love posts about this sort of thing. “Jan doesn’t want to go because she doesn’t want to leave the baby, Bob just flat dislikes the other couple but no one wants to offend” is the sort of stuff you can wring a lot of sitcom bullshit from!

Why are people so mad at her about this?? A) she’s trying to be objective & asking for perspective And b) she’s got a lot of reason to be wanting to stick close to her baby

Type of guy who writes posts about all his dates they are, of course, all bangers flooding his Notifications with dopamine vs. the girl reading those stories, knowing if she dated him-she could become a story too she with whom he could've loved & spent the rest of his life with
