Play stupid games, win stupid prizes!

Most humans crave certainty and purpose. And religion neatly serves to answer the big question: "Why am I?".

I'm happy for her, but it looks like she's "CEO" of a cozy low-stakes local business. It's not like she's on the hook for multi-million dollar decisions in some globalist corporation with trade secrets and stuff 😬
Bc I would not accept that kind of risk for any salary below "exorbitant".

For a guy that much into Islam and toxic hypermasculinity, he sure dresses like a gay vampire in a Blade movie.

I have a heat pump dryer bc it's super energy efficient and doesn't require a pipe run to the outside. Cost about 400 bucks and has been running fine for 6+ years with at least 4+ loads a week.
I just pour the water tank into the washer when it's full, so no hassle.

Doubt.
Why tease it? Just release the tapes and it's over.

He looks like most early college-age guys I see around University towns and I wasn't implying he's gay - which isn't a slur, but still - just that he doesn't look like he eats pussy. πŸ˜…

No because I don't have eyes on my tongue.
Also, bro low-key doesn't look like he does that.

Thanks, I guess? I hope the export models are better quality than the ones we bought for our own navy, because the german submarine fleet is much like a gentleman's drinks cabinet - never out of port. 😬

#5 actually, we give lightning sentience by trapping it in molten sand and inscribing it with minuscule runes, you science denier.

If it says yes, you "interact" with it bc it's a flock camera, if it says no, you "interact" with it because it's a acowardly flock camera.

There are a lot more blood (sub)types than the big A,B,O combos and some of them are exclusively found in people from subsaharan descent.
This can in some cases lead to mixed kids being unable to receive donations from any parents or siblings.

Not in the way that gives you one of the rare subsaharan blood types. 😬

Well you know what they say
β€œYou can't truly call yourself 'peaceful' unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.”

Duh, I know what pores are. But everything else that comes out of your body has a dedicated orifice, like a nostril. πŸ˜…

Checks out, yes. Bavarian women are just built different, my wife could easily carry two kids each weighing about 20kg up a steep flight of stairs before she got pregnant again 😁

Maybe it's different in the US, but in Germany that infrastructure and services all come with fees and taxes of their own. Property tax is literally just rent.

It's not fucking money laundering. Literally anyone can apply for a loan and offer anything as collateral. It's not a free money glitch, it's not a loophole, it's just banking.
I got a loan for our house bc my parents put up their house as collateral. Why would that be taxed?
And my shopping strategy is "whatever is on sale is this week's meals".

Okay, simple question: why the fuck should collateral be taxed if it doesn't change owners and is used for a loan, AKA a borrowed sum of money you also pay interest on?

And the comparison is faulty, bc the company you own shares in already pays taxes on its profits, so it generates revenue for the state. A house doesn't.
Also, property tax shouldn't be a thing anyway. That's just paying rent to the government instead of owning something outright.

I mean, you say you are no expert, so yes, a share portfolio is a "colelction". It doesn't just have a value as collateral or on sale, but it also gives you a certain amount of control over the companies you have shares in.
So forcing you to liquidate over a tax on a ficticious value actually devalues your portfolio as a whole.
Also, "progress is when the state takes your shit at random" is hell of a bootlicker take, tbh.

I chose that example on purpose, btw. Bc in this case it's an inherited watch and it makes for good colleteral bc of its sentimental value. By putting up your dad's watch, I know I can trust you to pay me back. You don't actually transfer ownership of the watch to me, you're just showing commitment.
Why the fuck would you have to pay tax on that?

Because it's effectively rent-seeking by the state. You don't really own the property, if the state can take it away from you if you stop paying.
