  • She also hated government handouts...unless she needed them.

    An interview with Evva Pryror, a social worker and consultant to Miss Rand's law firm of Ernst, Cane, Gitlin and Winick verified that on Miss Rand's behalf she secured Rand's Social Security and Medicare payments which Ayn received under the name of Ann O'Connor (husband Frank O'Connor). As Pryor said, "Doctors cost a lot more money than books earn and she could be totally wiped out" without the aid of these two government programs. Ayn took the bail out even though Ayn "despised government interference and felt that people should and could live independently… She didn't feel that an individual should take help."

  • Earmuffs

  • I bet there is lots of strategic forgettery when it comes to this asshole, who managed to top Ronnie Raygun in his destruction (most likely - Ronnie Raygun is responsible for a shit-ton of destruction).

    Reagan's destruction has been playing out over the last 40 years but was necessary groundwork to get us here. The 80s were when the republicans came up with "starve the beast", "two santa clauses", supply side economics, and accelerated regulatory capture.

    The Two Santa Claus Theory

    https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jude_Wanniski%5C

    The Two Santa Claus Theory is a political theory and strategy published by Wanniski in 1976, which he promoted within the United States Republican Party.[15][16] The theory states that in democratic elections, if members of the rival Democratic Party appeal to voters by proposing programs to help people, then the Republicans cannot gain broader appeal by proposing less spending. The first "Santa Claus" of the theory title refers to the Democrats who promise programs to help the disadvantaged. The "Two Santa Claus Theory" recommends that the Republicans must assume the role of a second Santa Claus by not arguing to cut spending but offering the option of cutting taxes.[15]

  • Almost all of them. That's how the Epstein class fund their lifestyles, they borrow against their stocks. This is why the Epstein class always want low interest rates; it is not about mortgages, at least not the kind where someone is homeless because they missed a payment.

  • As long as the stock has value n the market, the Epstein class can borrow against their stocks.

    This is why they're always clamoring for lower interest rates. It has nothing to do eith helping people with mortgages and everything to do with the Epstein class abusing the carried interest loophole to maintain their work free lifestyle.

  • Smells like foot, looks like speckled spoiled mayonnaise.

  • Every single time I need to look up something for Google products. This preceeds AI. Since the advent of AI it's a gamble on whether a tutorial will actually match reality.

  • I would but I would also like to stay married.

  • There's a really nice subreddit (which also has a Lemmy community) to teach you how to get content for it.

    If someone wanted to build the streamomg box you mentioned: it would be helpful to provide the names of those communities.

  • The US military hasn't won against an insurgent force since Vietnam. Big shiny weapons don't subjagate a populace, the USA doesn't have the numbers they need to control a population as large as ours, nor do they have enough to cover the amount of land they would need to control.

  • Aquarium water, but that's also the same thing.

  • Must be nice criticizing from the outside with a viable social safety net and healthcare.

  • Almost 50 and still touching my toes! Staying limber has definitely helped me not succumb to a mostly sedentary life. Just went white water rafting yesterday.

  • Works in your squarium too! And feeds the littler fish.

  • pathogens (e.g., E. coli)

    Why are they using water with e. coli in it to fill the reflecting pool? Sure, someone might be shitting in it, but on a level that it's going to effectively contaminate that big a body of water there would be a noticeable amount of poopers.
