You’d think there’d be a threshold where they just say “no” though?
I’m not shocked I got approved, even with that interest rate, my credit isn’t bad, just non existent.
I’m shocked my friend got approved with 2 judgements. What’s the point of a judgment? I suppose I don’t know the details, they could be old, etc. just seems irresponsible.
Maybe we’ll see a Sanders presidency.
Why would you even want that? There was a time I did, a couple cycles ago. The man is 84 years old. We can do better than a president with one foot in the grave.
(I say, not optimistically)
Why did this take 116 years? Are breeding couples uncommon? Do they not breed in captivity? Do they have the longest pregnancy in the animal world?
So, anecdotally, I had to go vehicle shopping for work, I was talking to a guy who doesn’t have good credit. I go, “how was buying a car for you? I’m nervous cause I don’t really have credit.”
Dude goes “yeah, honestly, I was told they stopped doing credit checks, I put down my companies gross income as my gross income and they just ran with it.”
“That sounds like the car version of 2008?”
“Hahaha yeah, I guess it is.”
Now, when I had to buy a truck, they did run a credit check, and I ended up needing a co-signer, but, none the less, interesting to hear that, then see this article.
Edit: I should also note, I needed a co-signer for a not insane interest rate. The bank would still loan to me personally, just at 17.5%. So, I mean, he’s probably right. I’m not sure you get actually turned down. Dude has 2 judgements against him.
Yeah, the “reptile brain” vs “primate brain” is 1960’s science. And disproven. I wish people would stop saying it.
I run a startup company and I decided my first hires will have profit sharing. If not all hires. However, I don’t plan on ever being very big. It’s a garage door company, I’d like to have 2-3 trucks running around, but I don’t think I need more than that. That feels comfortable. Everyone should be happy, my future employees, my customers, and of course, myself.
Allow me to add, “mint”.
You also go to prison before you’re tried. Even if it’s an illegal order. And military prison isn’t a fun place.
Or they had a camera recording.
It’s not. High rate of fire ≠ combat effectiveness.
I don’t believe it is. I think that’s rather reductive considering how much it’s impacted human culture over history.
One of my favorite quotes I’ve seen brought up “you don’t have to be evil/crazy to kill someone. You just have to believe you’re right.” - Yoko Taro
Not that it’s an excuse for anything. This also smells of religion. And people kill in the name of religion all the time.
One of my favorite parts of the game! I’ve seen courses turn really dilapidated parks into nice places with a lot of foot traffic. Granted, everyone still needs to be accommodating, but, generally, it’s a win win for everyone in the area!
I don’t live in a big city. But, disc golf generally isn’t expensive to get into. Really fun. If you can get around a bit to courses.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!!
I wasn’t attempting to disparage them. Because I get it. I don’t gamble, but I have my own destructive ways to get through the days. Just unfortunate that it’s the case.
I’m in my upper 20’s, I have a lot of friends I would honestly describe as having a gambling “issue”, it’s a spectrum, some are worse than others. However, I do find it interesting that my peers are so disenfranchised, they’d rather spend time and whatever limited money they have, trying to hit a lottery, rather than work and attempt to move through the social ladder or whatever.
Now, I say all of that, to say, how are we, as a society, okay with this? How is it that I would put my life trajectory in the hands of a digital slot machine? Well, the simple answer is capitalism.
The Roman’s thought it had to be “bread and circus” imagine how stupid they must feel, all you need is a circus to keep your population from coming together.
Anyway, rant over. This image makes me sad.
Edit: I do know this is a shitpost lol sorry for taking the piss. But, it’s been topical for me recently.
That’s how my little sister got her nickname. They’d say her name as “baby _____” and I couldn’t say baby so it was just “b _____” and she’s been “B” ever since. Her name doesn’t have a B in it.
