They’ll be let go next week.

It’s the final episode of “It’s Florida, Man”, if anyone wants to see the whole story.

Next to a water treatment plant.

Which is hilarious, because most of the shit out there today seems to be written by them.

Yeah. Everyone forgot the second half of “Trust, but Verify”. If I ask an LLM a question, I’m only doing it because I’m not 100% sure how to look up the info. Once it gives me the answer, I’m checking that answer with sources because it has given me a better ability to find what I was looking for. Trusting an LLM blindly is just as bad as going on Facebook for healthcare advice.

Lmao, Sarah J Maas catching strays.

There was a Fiat on fire on the side of the road earlier. Italy answers the call!

Hey! Look at this comment! It didn’t fucking need to exist. At all. Ever. What the fuck.

If only it weren’t for those damned Hobbits.

And I’m also aware of how much it will completely fuck you over if you do it.

You are giving false equivalency arguments. You are equating Musk’s abilities to some direct link in your taxes, as though the 25% you pay each paycheck is funding him. It isn’t. It is still funding garbage collection, national parks, welfare programs, and other critical infrastructure. Your taxes haven’t started going to new places. They are doing the exact same thing they have always done. You are being reactionary, and it comes off like you are either 15 years old and just learning about taxation, or 55 and learning about Libertarianism. Get a grip on yourself, realise that there is still work to be done, and being an infant about this shit isn’t doing anything but wasting people’s fucking time. If you don’t want to pay taxes, don’t. But don’t lie and say it’s about Musk. It’s selfishness. It’s because you can’t manage what money you have, and you think that little bit extra is going to make a difference. It won’t, though. You’ll still be broke because you spent all your money on weed and black light posters.

You are free to do whatever you want to do, however, there are consequences to your actions. If you believe that the US government will collapse and there will be no one to start garnishing your wages when you don’t report your taxes, then by all means, stop paying them.

Your reaction is “reactionary”, though. You come across as though you are looking for a reason to not pay taxes, and you think you’ve found one. Instead, you should be looking for ways to correct the problems you see. If you don’t like Musk, then find ways to undermine him. Refusal to pay your taxes isn’t it, though.

I’m in the “make up an excuse and don’t show up” camp. If I went to a friend’s family gathering and my friend tried to pawn me off on a relative with a conversation starter, I’d probably have to leave. I don’t go anywhere without an exit plan, and I’ve been known to dip out of restaurant waiting areas because it was too crowded to be comfortable while I wait. Last year I skipped a concert for my favorite band that I paid extra to get the VIP passes for just because I couldn’t even think about being in the crowd. Social anxiety is a real problem, and I appreciate you giving some input on how to help others deal with it. I’ll add by saying that if you know a friend has a hard time with it, be upfront and ask them if they are comfortable with the situation BEFORE the get together. Let them know if you will be there with them the whole time, or if they will be flying solo. I don’t not want to go to social gatherings, I just need to have my ins and my outs sorted before I dive headfirst into one.

People will use Venmo for anything but splitting a bill. It’s fucking wild. We regularly have parties of up to 80 people in our restaurant, and they just can’t seem to understand that 80 different checks is a nightmare for the waitstaff, let alone the kitchen and the bar. They will fight tooth and nail to not have combined checks.

Edit: Guess I should have specified that these are reservations that we communicate with before hand. Typically office parties and corporate events or large weddings. You know, things that would typically go on a single tab. I don’t think anyone here appreciates how long it takes to take individual orders for 80 people. Even at 30 seconds an order, thats half an hour of order taking, not to mention the time it takes to input it. Then you have special requests and questions about ingredients. It’s a lot of effort to split that up.

Uh-oh. Hot dog.

Did you bother to watch it? Or are you just posting a video in hopes that people will think that you’ve found evidence against my viewpoint without doing the research. Because, in the video he says basically everything in My comment and in OP.

There was another one, don’t know if it was from the same list or not, but it was the all beet diet. Just beets. Season and cook them however you want, but that is all you are allowed to have. Period. My stepdad did the diet and nearly lost his goddamned mind.

What I came in to say. He’s a curmudgeon. A genius, but not the most personable.

:D

If I were establishing a new country and that was a native animal, that bad motherfucker is going on my flag.
