Can someone explain to me what makes Taylor Swift so popular?
  • You have a point that there's a huge difference in the life of a minimum wage family and a family able to invest 6 figures. Context matters though and I think the point was that they didn't have an overwhelming amount that can force success; we're talking about a financial-secure and supported start that enables pursuit of things that are unlikely to pan out. Still no small luxury, by any means.

    even if mathematically their finances are closer to minimum wage earners than to the 0.0000001% of ultra wealthy.

    FWIW 0.1% is already 38 million dollars (net worth, US, 2012 data).

    E: Speaking of context, you were specifically talking about commonality between the, idk, bottom 1-10%, top 1-10%, and (whatever is ultra-wealthy). So my point may be the one made out-of-context.

  • Well now I'm just confused. Is there another word that fits the description besides hoe? Is there a magical synonym for hoe that works for both mankind of the word? Cause that would be damn interesting.

    Host server difference makes more sense though, doesn't it...

    Biden Stands To Gain Double-Digit Political Support If Marijuana Is Rescheduled, Poll Of Likely Voters Shows
  • You're just throwing shit at the wall man. You slap together strawmen in the form of a rhetorical question assigning a obviously weak position to the other commenter, over and over again. Why?

    They weren't defending the targeting of civilians in WWII.

    They weren't arguing that Hamas is not antisemitic.

    They weren't claiming Hamas is brave or pure in spirit.

    They don't claim Hamas has justification.

    They don't justify acts of destruction and terrorizing Jewish communities.

    On and on and on. Do you always operate this way?

    I'm really getting over the enshitification of the internet.
  • I miss forums. Not that they disappeared completely but that used to be the go-to for good info. Still is maybe, cause I've read through a lot of garbage trying to learn about something pretty simple and then hit a forum post that's like "well it depends if it's early- or late-season blight". What? The twenty garden blog posts I studied never mention such a distinction. But there's Jimmy in Mt Carmel Indiana breaking it down.

    What level of game do you have in mind? I'm wondering if something browser playable is in order. Have you considered the story of the chrome browser dinosaur game?

    What's something that feels illegal to know?
  • I worked really hard on a tailspin DVD for a niece done years ago. I probably searched through a lot of images for art.

    I hope I made it with an additional "Dumbass spells it "tailspin DVD" flag

    Even if Covenant Eyes is honest in their (batshit) intentions, all that eavesdropping and compromised devices makes them a juicy target.

  • I went from routinely missing to never. You absolutely should set that up.

    I can relate on the losing awareness aspect. So, I also put them all on my calendar in red (recurring, of course) then switch to green with the title appended w/ "DONE" when I've paid it, or verified auto pay is scheduled.
