More than half of US families are one paycheck away from homelessness.

So I learned it this way:
Upper Class - can live a luxurious life without working at all, and even have domestic employees etc.
Middle Class - can live comfortably but only if they work
Lower class - cannot live comfortably even if they work, and can very easily end up homeless (no social safety net)
The dude who taught me this was my Sociology of Work teacher over twenty years ago.

It does help, thank you. To think that you have to have "helped" your kids enough for them to want to take care of you in old age is indeed pitiful. And it speaks really badly about your concept of your children.

Well today he said he doesn't want to be in touch with us anymore because we're so ungrateful, so I guess that he's just made it very easy to ignore him but it fckn eats at me, it's my dad, you know?

Why do you always think it's Russian trolls? Is there really nothing criticizable anymore about this war romance y'all got going for Ukraine? Any critical minds just have to be 'Putin's puppies'? I'm so fucking tired of this simplistic ass Marvel heroes viewpoint.

Did that, and guess what, he said he'd given it to me in cash. Convenient, eh?

Very good point. I mean they're going to incriminate him for terrorism and/or association with Hamas for sure anyway

How good is /e/ privacy based LineageOS fork?
I've used it for almost five years, flashed it myself on my FP3. I disabled microG and I'm very careful & strict about what I install on my phone, also their Advanced Privacy set of tools is pretty good. For my threat model is more than enough and I am very happy overall. Never had any serious issues, or even mildly serious ones tbh, despite people yelling about Android security updates arriving late. There was an outage in their cloud services in October that required a complete revamping of their server infrastructure and that took months but I don't use their cloud so I wasn't affected at all.

Whoever doesn't obey USA's commands, USA calls a dictator, and then starts a vilifying campaign to justify intervening and getting rid of him/them. The EU always plays along and certainly Ukraine will not be an exception because it's all business to them (Putin included) and war is the most profitable of all businesses.

That thing you call attention span is actually absolutely intentional propaganda dosing.

Yes, you're right. We should definitely send more military aid to Palestine.
