Totally normal to not want to work if you have money. But the same sentiment is not accepted when you don’t. The reality is MOST of us don’t want to have to work to survive. Most of us want to win the lottery. The only difference between you and them is income.
If you asked the average person what’s one thing they’d like to accomplish a great number of them would say they don’t want to have to work to survive. But when a homeless person is unemployed, even when they don’t want to be, that’s a moral failing actually

Another reason for why good public transportation is necessary is because old people need to be able to get around safely, without being in danger and without endangering other people
A property tax is not an income tax, it is a consumptions tax where the thing being consumed is the services provided to maintain the infrastructure for the homes (water, power, gas, roads, schools, etc). It is calculated via home values only because local governments have no access to anyone's income and cannot levy and income tax, so the price of the home serves as a clumsy and imperfect proxy for ones investment in the area and ability to pay.
@theistinthought@cljack Stuff is fresher when I eat it, less things go bad in the fridge before I can get to them, if I forget something or need a singe ingredient for dinner I can get it in 10 minutes or less. It’s actually improved my life so much.
@theistinthought@cljack I live next to a grocery store and when I go there to grab a couple things it’s 20 max. I don’t live in a walkable city and the store next to me is expensive, so I make one run a week to a cheaper store. But if I could do all my shopping at the one I can walk to I would love it.
Bisexuality is a complete sexuality on its own. It’s not half-gay/half-straight. No one is “less” of a bisexual if they primarily date the opposite gender. They’re still queer. The point is that they’re not ONLY attracted to the opposite gender. It’s 2026, people. Get it together
@honqjoongs@Nearhanuddin I feel like immediately reading this as hate says more about the reader than OP. I read this as them picking two ethnicities that don’t fit what the average person means when they say that. The tweet doesn’t imply either are bad.
