Still talking about Wellbutrin as a treatment as another option for some patients after all these years.

I keep thinking playing the same game in China does not lend itself to ever visiting there again… seems like execs at one food supplier danced with the penalty he suggests over adulterated ingredients.

After one foul, I’d pretty much be releasing it toward the concession stand behind me after that.

Excited for “Democrats” to reclaim anti-Asian racism. I miss it from the days of <early 80s union talking points. /s

The problem we’re all wanting to avoid is the king of “I alone can do it” but there are a string of left-leaning counterparts who bought into the “I alone can fix things” mindset (Hillary, Biden, RBG…)

I'm pretty sure my dad "lost" clients by having to break the news to them that "I don't 'have' the money anymore" is not a valid tax deduction on its own. You can *give* money to someone else up to a certain point without **paying** taxes on it, but that doesn't remove your tax burden on the money.

I’m kinda surprised about the “Let’s Go Brandon” dudes (only one weak chant attempt, though) at the RHCP concert with Ice Cube as an opener, but the guys who made me aware who Eazy-E and NWA were way back when were/are had a decent affinity for the Confederate flag and are raging Trumpers today.

Probably pretty decent. He sits around and revs it a lot. Definitely a small time landlord rental house @ 800 sq ft with the owner being an “LLC” with an address a few blocks away on the water, but “only” a ~$1 million house compared to the rest that neighborhood.

No less functional than a truck (our F-150 that we traded for a Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid couldn’t have fit these in its bed, either).

Neighbor across the street who was verbally abusing his gf/wife a couple weeks ago let out a string of n-words today (within a single “sentence”) and unsurprisingly has an upside down flag. I think he was selling his motorcycle because woke got him fired. 🙄

St Pete PD had some misappropriation of “clothing collection boxes for the homeless” or something since we’ve been here and Tampa PD has had a scandal too, and LMPD has had 4-5 in that time?

Buy your dad gift cards for something that would be heavily discounted and mostly covered with reasonable health insurance! Perfectly functional healthcare system.

Is there such a term as “nicewashing”? Because that describes how I always felt about their show.

Lol, I got absolutely walloped by [especially Moderna] shots. But son and I, who have the pissiest immune systems wrt allergies, were the only two in the household who didn’t get Delta vs. the others having taste loss and a week of downtime.

Got dam. And I *vividly* remember my late teens/early 20s as super “lol why would you need a pager/cell phone” awkward.

I should buy $75 worth of Lowe’s stock every time I fix an appliance so I can have enough saved up to replace it when it actually breaks for good.

Yeah, I saw a few people on Threads that were basically acting like PHEVs were the equivalent of driving the largest model diesel available and rolling coal.

Reminds me, I still owe my wife a timelapse of the backyard cameras of the dudes who laid down the pavers. Supposedly, they go through 3-4 pairs of shirts in a day. Not sure how she knows this. 🤷🏽‍♂️

My all-time favorite was the $1k+ at LabCorp 15 years ago that had "allowed charge" of <$1. This one at least is a post-deductible charge and the "allowed" is "only" reduced to 10% of the original instead of 0.01% of the original bill.
