“I’d like to give them some fucking stimulus.”
“I’d like to give them some fucking stimulus.”
If you want to insure yourself against capital flight go for a Land Value Tax. Let 'em shove a hectare of land in their luggage.
OK so it’s time to say the quiet part out loud: the reason that governments have so far held off on taxing billionaires at 1% or 2% is the fear that they might spend 2% or 3% against those governments in revenge.
General Zod: I like the globe…
What ever happened to him?
Well, he pulled it on Rorschach, and Rorschach dropped him down an elevator shaft.
The butter won’t make him fat but the pasta will.
I know damn well. Someone who knew police told me that when they do these type of stunts they invite the press and local councillors and hand out beer and then they all stand around waiting for the wind to “unpredictably” blow all the smoke all over the audience. Everyone winds up wrecked. Your tax at work in the great war against drugs.
Why do cops always burn weed to destroy it rather than dunking it in bleach or seawater or any of the thousand things you can do to it to render it unusable?
If you’re browsing Lemmy, on your phone, in work then really you should be curating your feed a bit better.
It’s a funny thing, I used to a werewolf but I’m alright noooooooow.
Fuckin’ A.

This here is a picture of Stephen Luntz (writer of this piece) for comparison.
I do use it as a thought terminating statement usually when friends have asked me to help. I ask for them to tell me what has happened and then I suggest a forward plan of action. It is very common for people at this point to feel guilty about having to ask for help and also to go down a spiral of putting all the blame on themselves. Neither of these things are useful as I need their active help and participation in putting the problem right and that’s where their energy needs to be focussed.
So it this point I will very often say to them something like, “Well, it is what it is and we are where we are and there’s no sense in blaming yourself, let’s see what we can do about getting into a better position.”
I did encounter a proper thought terminating cliche in the form of, “I hear what you’re saying…” from bosses in various places. Means “I hear what you’re saying but I couldn’t give less of a shit about it even if I were prepared to put in the slightest effort, which I am not.”
Surely his sidekick would be Guacamole Mole.
I sure hope so.
