I used to have my own place before my wife and I got married, and she had her own house too. When I moved in with her I decided to rent out my place to a friend, otherwise I'd have to still pay like $650 a month for my mortgage. I set my friends rent at $900 a month for him and a friend, with cats. I paid my mortgage and had some extra to save up in case a repair was needed. Average rent for an apartment (not a house) was 1200-1500 in the same area. My renters ended up taking better care of the house than I ever did. It was beautiful when they lived there. I ended up making about 5k to 10k extra bucks over the course of a few years and my mortgage was paid for me. Eventually they had to move out due to some issues between the two at which point I sold the house and made over six figures(net profit, not gross), off a house that cost less than $80,000 when I bought it.
See what I did there? I charged a reasonable rent and still made a totally stupid amount of money off of just one property. I wasn't a goddamn parasite who tried to bleed my tenants for everything they were worth.
People like these total shitbags. They're the reason why America's youth have no future
But will it actually be worth watching?
That's what I call a big, fat, slow moving target...
Seriously. It's in black and white. We have a right to kill musk and Trump
Thanks for your moos now get on the fucking conveyor belt!
Yup probably exposed rebar up a pant leg or two, good catch
Edit: yup, you can see the bar sticking up in the back of his pants and he's trying to hide it, it's fed up through the right side pant leg
They should cancel it on security concerns alone
Exactly. The entire reason Trump is President again is because we did not take the serious extreme and required actions after the 2020 elections to ensure that him, his supporters, and enablers could never participate in American society again.
The same mistake we made after the civil war we decided that we would be generous and go easy on those who betrayed us. We are still paying for that mistake we are still paying for the mistake with Trump. The only thing fascist understand is violence in the only way fascism ends is through violence.
As an American, fucking do it, and make sure DC and Red states feel the most pain. And don't have some qwar ass back door conversation/deal to end the tariffs. Refuse to end them until he goes on live television and reads the following
"To all my fellow Americans, the best Americans from the best America, in hind sight, as it concerns tariffs with our closest geographical allies, I was wrong. The decision I made was stupid, and it was made by an idiot, me. Unfortunately I don't have the intellectual or business aptitude to actually determine what a good decision would be, as opposed to a bad decision. In fact, I am as stupid as the idiots who voted for me. This was the idea that I thought I would be fantastic and I was completely wrong and it's the only idea I had. I apologize to Canada and Mexico, both their leaders and citizens"
It would crush him to make a sincere public apology and backtrack. And he'll still get lynched before the end of year. Because he fucking deserves it.
Why don't they release his address? People should be able to find out if there's a dangerous terrorist sympathizer near them
Walz is a completely valid candidate. The only thing that held up Harris was that she was a black woman. I'm confident that any reasonable white man would have beat Trump, and that's unfortunate, but it's the reality of the American electorate
He already fucking is. Look at the markets. The Trump Slump won't stop, and the recent volatility in the markets is 100% due to him and his administrations dumb fucking mouths and actions. Hmm, you know who would love to see the US in a recession? Our enemies, and billionaires (who are also our enemies). To them it's just a good time to buy the country.
Trump is straight up a fucking traitor. His death will be violent, and beneficial to the American people, as will Musks.
No, they haven't. Then outed themselves as ignorant traitors who are a vocal MINORITY. By the time we get things back on track, there's going to be a lot of dead MAGAts and want to be oligarchs and Christian nationals stripped of their citizenship, and their assets seized.
He really wants to die soon
I mean he's kind of right... It's our fault that he's still alive...
Just gonna say it. There's no fucking way to secure an entire mountainside. One determined person with very little advanced knowledge of the event could let his brain breath from a mile away and be gone before anyone knows where the shot came from
I mean, the framework is already in place with crypto. The silk road ran for years and facilitated enormous amounts of illegal activity, and in the end who got in trouble? Like one fucking guy.
It's honestly no different than a bookie. You facilitate the transactions and keep a portion of the cut for each transaction. The key is keeping the payor, payee, and broker anonymous.
And no Ukraine wouldn't be involved in this, if anything the Swiss might be on board, or Panama
Yes, and this is a key difference, on a cruise, that behavior in front of your fellow passengers will be seen in person, and shot down immediately by people with decency, any they would be looked on like total assholes and ostracized . There is no social media machine or group think on a cruise ship. They're are several hundred/thousand people confined to a limited space, and noteworthy events will still be transmitted the old fashioned away. From eyes to brain to mouth to ears to brain to mouth, and so on.
That's why I love using cruise ships for an analogy when I can. It strips away a lot of the bullshit strawman, what if's, and 'but this will happen's'
It helps highlight how actual human behavior often acts in opposition of the hive mind nonsense cultivated and propagated by News and social broadcast outlets that are owned by want to be oligarchs that view our rights as an obstruction to their God given right to rape the American people for profit
