OMG, Daniel Tosh is on Lemmy!

Their time is worthless, they use slave labor.

Drop of water depends on where the water is. Watch online videos to diagnose problems, it’s the opposite of doing this for personal health. People have some crazy cheap ways to address issues.

Crack, draw a line parallel to the crack on each side. Measure it and it on the wall. Check back and see if the measurement is changing. Patch it if it’s stable. If it’s not stable, probably not good news, start with videos of what others have done.

Ants are the easiest. There are barrier sprays that will keep out any insects. Fall instructions on the product but typically just spray it on the outside of the foundation once a year.

Houses are over engineers to stay standing up so don’t worry too much. The expensive stuff will come around ever couple decades like roof replacement so plan for that but most everything can be remediated with little effort, especially if you don’t care how it looks. You said it’s a fixer up, each patch is just another layer to its character.

Americans actually pay a higher effective tax rate than in civilized countries, while receiving fewer services in return.

Only the very weathy have a lower effective rate because they use discretionary spending to purchase lax tax laws.

America is a shit hole country in deep deep denial.

So he bought a house for 6k 50 years go and now has to pay 2k in property taxes each year. If he was renting that wouldn’t cover two months.

Does he also complain that the sales tax on candy bar is more than he used to pay for a candy bar when he first bought his house?

I’m jealous you managed to finish it in a single sitting. I’m still not done, started and stopped three times so far.

I place is squarely in the “It insists upon itself.” category of movies.

The irony.

Instructions unclear.

Threw a brick through each window at the local strip mall.

That you use being offended to be offensive it is a common emotional response. So I accept the explanation that you are of simple mind in this regard.

You’ve have choosen to take the intolerance of one small opinion of mine and expanded it to total intolerance of me as a fellow human.

You do you.

Cool. And yet you keep responding and so what does that say about you? What compels you to continue this demonstration? Do you feel your superior virtue has not be made clear?

It feels like you need to silence me and your method involves intimidating me. What is your justification for this.

Why do draw the line at beliefs? This is all endless curious to me.

I am most curious why your curiosity has this hardline and what makes you feel so extremely justified, so certain. All this allowing you to draw a hard line here of all places.

I expect you won’t elaborate but I suspect it is all based on emotion and not logic.

I’m not sure if it was your another that indicated I should fear being body shamed myself and so how much of all this is based on your fear of being body shamed.

I know mine is partly based on not giving a shit if someone wants to make fun of me because I would never give another person that power over me.

Your assumptions for my reasons for responding is based on your personal biases. It indicates a lack of curiosity as to who I am as in individual.

The issue here is still you thinking I’m offended. I’m not. You continue to insist I am and insist you know my motivations.

You and I disagree I what a bad person is. I can accept that. Why can’t you?

I posted this knowing it would get called out. Literally just said that. It appears you’ve having trouble understanding what I am saying.

I think this makes you a bad person. If you disagree then by your own rules that makes you childish. Does this help you see the fallacy of your logic?

It’s really weird how much emotion is in all of these responses but it’s really silly when you then claim I am being emotional.

I’ve made no claims to my moral superiority but you and other have. That is a paradox.

We disagree on something. Calling me childish is a bully tactic.

I am true to myself and that offends people in weird silly ways. It results in them applying their imagined prejudices to me.

These are all logical fallacies and if there is one thing I’ve learned over the year is that those who deploy them are not worth arguing with and this is such an occurrence.

I knew it would lead here because the internet is predictable because people are predictable.

For example you will now ignore me or responses with an emotional response, dismisal of my position and list of logical facllicies you feel I am using because you aren’t interesting in a discussion.

You need me to be a bad person

Nope. I understand logical fallacies.

For example, you calling me a child is one.

Yep.

It’s funny how you’re acting superior but have no problem judging the world I must live in as being shitty.

The difference between you and I is that I don’t lie to myself. It’s a subtle difference but actually leads to living in a world that is less shitty.

Maybe one day you can join me but you’ll need to let go of that gate your keeping yourself behind.

The one I have I bought long long ago and it does indeed cut without leaving any sharp edges. I’m not sure if that’s universal or just the type I have, I purchased it without any research.

I don’t want to suggest any specific brand because fuck corporations. But the one I have is “Hamilton Beach Smooth Touch Electric Automatic Can Opener with Easy Push Down Lever” so that smooth touch might be the keyword to look for or they could have some ridiculous trademark on the term.

I didn’t know this was an option until I bought this one and it appears I’m not alone on this. Such a simple device no one thinks about and the default option is primitive.

This is fundamentally no different than making fun of someone for obvious plastic surgery. Choices were made.

This guy is clearly choosing to look like this.

The use of sus dates back to at least 1936.

Lobbying is only a small factor.

Momentum is the main cause.

A systemic shift is required and those who have good insurance are afraid that of ending up with less.
