Minimum wage
  • Just a reminder that we’ve been trying to get the minimum wage to $15/hr for so long that if we kept up with inflation the minimum wage would be over $25/hr now. By the time $15/hr actually passes it’ll be less than half of what it should be.

  • Trump Campaign Brazenly Steals Kamala Harris’ Beyoncé Anthem
  • They don’t have whatever it is that daddy has that gets his cult members riled up; with the possible exception of Ivanka, I expect all his horrid offspring to disappear back into the dark fringes of our society once Trump is gone.

  • Every Difference Between Rebel Moon’s Director Cuts & The Original Versions
  • I waited to for the director’s to watch this in the hopes it was better than the poorly reviewed original cut. Unfortunately so far it feels like he must have filled in all the extra runtime with more slow motion shots. Like so many slow motion shots. Maybe if he’d cut some of those he would have had less need for all the exposition dumps.

    Like so many of his films Rebel Moon is a collection of beautiful moments with very little to hold them all together.

  • JD Vance’s wife: My husband only meant to insult people who actively choose not to have kids, not people who are trying but are unsuccessful
  • Anyone who is fine insulting people for their mixed race heritage while also having mixed race kids of their own is a a special type of asshole. There’s ignorance (which can be fixed) and then there’s being a complete sociopath who sells their own children’s wellbeing just for career advancement. I feel very sorry for their kids.

  • Space Marine 2 Devs Cancel Beta To Focus On 'Best' Possible Launch
  • It says the beta was to test multiplayer so hopefully that means the PvP multiplayer mode and not the campaign co-op mode. If so, I’m fine with that; the pvp mode looked interesting but that’s not what I’m really buying it for.

  • Me🚗irl
  • It’s a bit hard to tell accurately from this picture but I counted the lanes of cars near the bottom somewhere in the 48-50 range though there are only 25 or so actually toll booths so who knows.

  • One Mississippi
  • That’s my point. We (those of us that aren’t at least millionaires) don’t really differentiate in society between someone that has a million dollars and someone that has 10 million dollars; they’re both stuck in the “millionaires” tier.

    So say you are making $50,000 a year, well it’s easy to see how you or someone like you could (theoretically) get to $100,000; that’s just the next tier up. And then it’s easy to imagine someone going from $100,000 to a million because that’s the next tier up again. But once you get there, people don’t tend to think of ten million as a tier and usually not a hundred million either. The next tier in our zeitgeist after million is billion.

    So people tend to think of billion being kind of the same as going from $100,000 to $1,000,000. Hence the common disconnect about just how much more money a billionaire has than the common man.
