This is true for many people I’ve talked to, but he does understand, on a basic level, how the brackets work. When it comes to the calculation parts, I think he gets frustrated with all the rules.
But it’s okay! I’m good at stuff like that and he can build pretty much anything. We all have our strengths. :)
Nah. He’s not an idiot. But he is impatient. He doesn’t handle paperwork or anything involving patience well. (ADHD)
I also think taxes in the US are intentionally over complicated and confusing. I don’t struggle with things like that but I can empathize with people who do.
Exactly, and it also depends on what withholding you have requested.
Nah. He’s not a bad person or a dummy. He just gets frustrated by bureaucracy and doesn’t have the patience I have.
Yeah, I definitely didn’t leave this in school. I know about it from reading articles on tax brackets. _(‘’)/
This is the problem. My partner doesn’t want to work OT because he thinks it will cost him more in taxes. I explain why that’s not exactly true, but I can tell he’s not interested. Financial Literacy in the US is abysmal.
If I had kids now, I wouldn’t let them touch Roblox. My ex had a kid that he didn’t pay enough attention to. That was constantly falling in with online predators in Roblox and Discord. I reported a predator on discord and they made me go through and flag every picture the kid sent, not the whole conversation. wtf Discord. Keeping predators away on Roblox was harder.
Fandom is icky. A few years ago, my mom was getting scammed by some conspiracy guy from LinkedIn who offered her a “job.”
These dudes set up their own fandom wiki to try to make their bullshit seem real. I can’t remember the name of the people involved but one guy was claiming that he was owed 300 trillion dollars by the government. (Can’t remember the exact number but it was astronomically high. More money than exists kinda high)
In the 1980s, Bayer sold medication to Asia and Latin America that they knew was tainted with HIV. Thousands of people ended up testing positive for HIV/AIDS.
The same lab also made a mistake with polio vaccines and gave 40,000+ kids a version of polio. (However, that was in the 50s and Bayer bought Cutter Labs in the 70s)
He looks like he was drawn by Rob Liefeld.
I have some of those bones! They came with filling but once they dogs couldn’t reach it, they became less interested. I’m gonna steal your idea! Thanks!
Once I order tampons on Amazon. They just put a shipping label directly on a single box.
I’m not embarrassed by stuff like that, but how weird.
Some of my favorites! Mostly Sci-fi, but there a bit of fantasy too! The starred items are my absolute favorites; listened to on repeat. Not the most obscure list, but I don’t care.
The Expanse series is my favorite, but I want to highlight Dungeon Crawler Carl and Redshirts. Sci-fi tends to be serious and depressing, but these books are funny. I genuinely laugh out loud at Dungeon Crawler Carl.
You won’t regret it!
Futurama. I’ve seen it thousands of times. That’s not an exaggeration.
I suspect there are a lot of people who chased dollars with boot camps. They lack critical thinking skills, and don’t value curiosity and learning, which are pretty important to this field.
If they don’t know where to start and aren’t excited by figuring it out, they aren’t going to have a great time.
That sucks that the sleep study wasn’t helpful. My doctor referred me to a neurologist but I’ve been on the waiting list for a long time so no sleep study yet.
I hope you figure it out! Poor sleep sucks worse than no sleep sometimes.
How do you feel with that low deep sleep? I feel like shit and my deep sleep is frequently around 5% of my total sleep. Have you seen anyone about it?
You’re absolutely right. I cant speak for anyone else, as I don’t live there but I highly doubt the US is an exception.
Rather than being mad at each other, I want to make sure we hold the right people accountable! Governments, corporations, billionaires etc.
It’s a form of oppression.
