Most people don’t get streaming content because commercials most people got it because that is where they content is and you can choose. When you want it.

Streaming services didn’t make money when money was cheap to loan. Now money is expensive to get. Company needs to make profit rather than constantly taking in funding . Commercials make money. It kept tv and radio afloat. Streaming is still better than tv

I think it is becoming overwhelming clear news doesn’t care about lives unless it makes them money. They will never let a shutdown happen in the foreseeable future.

In all the swing states they were less than the difference between the two parties.

Eessentially Democrats last i checked and calculated on Friday lost 4 swing states that would change the outcome by around 250k votes.

I don’t want to hold power i don’t want to be the one. It’s not something I want to do. BUT if the fucking people i choose don’t want to do what I ask them to do i guess I will fucking do it my self.

I imagine a lot of people were supporting people in power currently or thinking the people they were electing were more qualified and were trying. The democratic party with their move to the right shows they don’t. This inspires people to do it themselves. There is lots of self doubt and reflection in leftists lives. Someone can do it better someone is more experienced, more qualified, deserving or older. Until people drop the ball enough or rage and revolutionary fires are sparked that is when people do things.

If you pay 500$ a month for 30 years at 5% interest compounded monthly you would contribute $180k and would have $416,129 so not really a million. You would need a little less than 9.5% interest to get a million. 2% interest is only getting you $246k which when you take into account inflation 2-3% normal average minus 5% one of the higher realistic interests that is what you are actually making .

Cool if their stock is worth that much they can get rid of it and make the company more public instead having so much power in the hands of the few

1500s until around 1947. The people of different religions lived decently peacefully amongst themselves despite all the people trying to rule them it wasn’t until the zionists wanted the region to be Israel rather than Palestinian that all this ethno cleansing and genocide began. There was riots against the government or other nations ruling them but wasn’t civil unrest. The bloodshed over the last 80 years or so is because Zionists want to create an ethno-state called Israel.

Your statistic is wrong 80% of the Jewish population were born there. Jews are 73% of the population at 7.2 million which means 1.44 million weren’t born there. It isn’t about leaving or kicking people out. It is about the Israeli government was founded on false pretenses, ethnic cleansing and genocide. They owe reparations to the people who lived their before. The nation shouldn’t be Israel and shouldn’t be an ethno-state (all ethno-states are bad) it should have been Palestinian and every one should live their peacefully like they have before

To prep my day. As a late shift I want to know what I am walking into rather than be anxiety ridden for my 4 hours of day light. That being said I don’t respond I just check to see what is happening

Before 2016 he was a celebrity people liked him as a no bullshit business owner like the middle class small business owners. As he was exposed to more media and has proven he was more of an idiot it personified him as someone like them. A moron who does what they want with 0 reflection or cares about other people.

Don’t feel guilty it depends on where you lived. I voted green party I believe but I live in Delaware and that won’t affect the race outcome at all

Not every state allows it and if they do it has to be a special reason in most states. So you must live in a lucky state or had an excuse every year

Hmm. Being interested in what is going on in your friends or loved ones life is a way of caring about a person. Do you like to share any details about your life at all with friends or family? What connects you to these people? Or is it you just don’t care about these parts of others lives?

I wouldn’t call it dishonest it would call it caring for another human being doing things you don’t care for for another person builds closeness, familiarity, and tightens bonds. Knowing or listening to details of other people’s lifes just deepens lore and fills out things that are happening in someone’s life.

You are probably a bit autistic. As you see the world a bit as black and white and don’t understand why you do a thing you dont like. That or you don’t actually care about these other people and you are narcissistic and only using these people. The world is gray.

I got your point later on and you are right just saying time and place was weird. The whole context and a better summary would be better dropped on a disagreeing comment

Tell me you don’t think about anything outside your 60 mile radius of your house. You really grasp complex thought and how things are interconnected

The thing is you live in what is called the imperial core if you are a western nation citizen and especially if you are an American citizen. You get what you want for dirt cheap prices(even if you think it is expensive). Turns out many things you own or get is at the expense of other people who still live in dirt houses or just don’t know where their next meal will come from or just in general an exploited people who isn’t getting a sustainable compensation for their work. You get chocolate, an electric car, or diamonds at dirt cheap prices from the labor of people who don’t even know what chocolate tastes like. You get chocolate because you enjoy chocolate. Chocolate is cheap because you demand it to be so you can have a little treat. You winge at learning about something while eating chocolate. We are sitting comfortable eating chocolate while you cry about learning about inequalities. You are asked to think about inequality about your little treat. It isn’t about chocolate at all. Just take some time to consider your little treat is making someone millions while the person’s hands who made it is hungry and will die at 40 because of the conditions they live in.

No we don’t expect you to completely stop eating chocolate. No we don’t expect you to change the world. We ask you to just think about other people for a moment while you take a break. I know it is hard since most people are being exploited in a different way here in the west and we have our own lives but at least we have so much food here that we won’t go hungry with programs to help funded by how rich we are. While people who made our little treat dedicate some farm land for our tasty morsel when they are hungry themselves. Never to even know that there hands create a delicious thing we can buy for less than 20 minutes of our labor in America

It isn’t everything possible.

They did negotiate lower prices on 10 of the most expensive drugs that of a certain age old

To add to this. Some schools won’t give official graduation from various levels of school or diplomas if you have lunch debt

Israel existence has never been a peaceful one. The creation and violence started with Shubaki family assassination in the British Mandate of Palestine which led to 1947–1948 civil war in Mandatory Palestine in which Israeli Zionist began their ethnic cleansing campaign and capture of Palestinian territory. Israeli zionists were scared the country was going to become Palestinian they created a war where untold atrocities and genocides that led to the creation of Israel and an apartheid state. Then Israel along with USAs and Britain’s help created a state for Palestinians in which they control everything leaving no control of their future in their hands. As Israel slowly took more and more territory from them. Hamas wouldn’t exist if instead of an ethno-state of Israel existing the country was called Palestinian exist and everyone had equal right like the area had before.

According to the UN, between 2006 and October 7, 2023, 5,365 Palestinians were killed and nearly 63,000 injured, and 170 Israelis were killed with more than 4,000 injured in Gaza or Israel proper. - https://www.ochaopt.org/data/casualties

Before October 7th life wasn’t peaceful. I don’t like terrorism but if you treat others like second tier people and steal their land they are going to fight back any way they can. You don’t blame an abused animal or person that hurt others you blame the abuser which is Israel. Once you hold the abuser accountable then can you go to therapy and train people that not all people are out to hurt you and not to lash out. Terrorism doesn’t exist in a vacuum. If someone seems like a caged animal look at the abuser. Why does the abusers violence exist? Because they want their land and don’t see the other people as human well there you go now we see the problem as an ethnic cleansing issue.

Just because you bought something and never picked it up it isn’t the stores fault. If you buy a perpetual license to digital code then never download it then cry when the store stops providing the source or updating it sounds like a you problem. Now a SaaS thing is weird. Like what do i do when I own a license for Helldivers 2 and the service turns off. That is like paying a person a lump sum for a service like trash but it is one person and you expect it to last at least 50 years since that person is young and they die next week. Now you are out the money and the service expecting the service would never end
