DEI is just giving other people the chance to setup the opportunity pipeline that already exists for white people in a white dominated society. It isn't a law. It's just looking at history and going, "They'd probably be

This is just a data problem. The more dick pics we can feed into it then the better the results will be. C'mon boys. Start uploading those dick pics for research purposes.

You only pay if your state charges to e-file, which many do. They have up selling services like a prepaid debit card and whatnot, but all that is optional.

Mine took the same time and only cost $15 because my state charges. Freetaxusa. I could have done it for free if I mailed my state, but whatever. My taxes are also well above what's average(personal plus 2 biz). TurboTax is a rip off.

You can do all this in an hour on a computer without mailing anything. Freetaxusa is the simplest way but really there are a ton of options that're free.

10-15 hours is insane. What are you doing? I do my personal, my 2 LLCs in under 2 hours. I also do my roommates W2 which takes 10 minutes. The whole thing costs like $35. Seriously, how does it take you 10+ hours? I do not understand at all

This is such a weird victimhood take. Small communities do well because they aren't for everyone. That's how like minded people find each other. That's what subcultures are. By definition they aren't for everyone. You do

Greyhound still kinda does this. I think they're phasing it out, or they already did. Basically if you could put it in a box and it would fit under their bus they would ship it to anywhere on their route.

Back when flat rates originally came out I don't think they had an actual weight limit. A buddy of mine used to cast and paint figurines. Well, someone ordered a bunch of lead ones and they used a flat rate to ship it. The box weighed

Absolutely. Everything in tech is hugely funded by tax payer money. Modern semiconductor manufacturing is nearly all researched in partnership with federal funding. It's viewed as a national security issue. The best theory I've he

Except that masks do statistically work in preventing the spread of contagion. Even if it's just 10% it's still worth doing. There are also tons of legit reasons to wear a mask besides being contagious. Anyone defending a mask ban

Trump is increasing the debt tho and did in his first term. Republicans only care about debt when it can be used to either bash Democrats or used as a talking point to eliminate something they don't like. Lookup "Starve The Beast&

Part of nafta was to slow the increasing costs of production, not lower them. When looking over time it definitely worked in many regards. Things didn't get as expensive as they would have otherwise.

This rings true for much of South America at one point or another. Lots of African nations. Several in SE Asia as well. Heck, just in the last few years we've seen several countries regress by a decade or more because of military coups

I might get flack for this, but asian cultures are super racist. They can be very mono and hostile to outsiders. That, paired with a ridiculous work ethic, means not many people wanna move there.

There's a site called cloudhiker that kinda does the same thing. The idea is the same but there was something special about early days Stumbleupon. Idk if we'll ever recapture that.
