though i am puzzling over this Some 46% of households earning more than $500,000 say they typically pay only the minimum on their credit card balances each month, or less.

I think that’s right! They mean that their checking account balance stays below some limit *because they are putting the rest into savings*

the more i think about this the more i feel like it's possibly one of the most outrageous scandals to happen in global politics in a long time. if it is what it looks like it's an absolute watershed crisis moment for the US and world.

This site definitely has a disproportionate share of those, and it also has a disproportionate share of people who love to call attention to them.

yeah. i do sort of understand what bugs people about it but as far as affectations go, uppercase and more formal punctuation feels like the greater sin (for me, to each their own)

So a bunch of guys in plainclothes surrounded a man in a car and shot him, then the government disappeared him and refuses to release any information about his condition or whereabouts

My dad‘s friend/classmate in the 1950s in NJ was Japanese-american, one on hand great they were friends, on the other one day he showed up to play and my aunt (age 7) answered the door and yelled in a non-unfriendly tone “Hey Ma there’s a dirty Jap at the door!”

my mother in law is always guilting us into bringing the kids to see them hours away in their rural spot which, to each their own, but not super appealing location to us—but she and her husband dont like coming into city to see our kids despite them both being retired, welcome to visit

I really dont get these families who think family is super important so we have to hang out even though we fucking hate each other. instead of Thanksgiving survival guides try just not hanging out with each other

volcanicsand.bsky.social @volcanicsand.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
My take is that generally it is either justified or the *kid* is someone *you* probably wouldnt want to hang out with much anyhow? usually the first and very rare it is not one of those two

well the other perverse thing about the fact that you can win money going all in but not for long means that the people who do have the longest winning streaks are so few that that fact itself becomes evidence of how brilliant they are.

Penalties are an overlooked reason why it makes more sense to go for it on 4th down than people realize. Defensive holding = first down conversion. But if offense commits a penalty they still often get to kick the FG.

A suggestion for the Bulwark Pope: If the Chicago White Sox make the World Series, how could His Holiness not go to their first home game on Monday, Oct. 26. And the day before, on Sunday, he could celebrate Mass in Springfield, OH, to show support for the persecuted Haitians.
