i'm startin shit on facebook

TAX ME, PLEASE.

And if you're voting in Juneau, no on 1 and no on 2.
Screenshot of lengthy Facebook post by user Marian Call reads: "I'm voting No on 1, No on 2. Because I'm on a mission to support the least attractive platform ever: TAX ME. Please, tax me. And tax people who are wealthier than me more. Tax the wealthiest a LOT more. Maybe saying it sounds unpopular, but I don't think I'm alone. When I hear people around me demanding better schools, better healthcare, better public facilities, an end to homelessness, improved travel options, job security, accessibility, isn't that what we're really saying? TAX US PROPERLY PLEASE? Because we've TRIED cutting taxes. We've been cutting and cutting *for seventy years.* Even when local taxes have risen, that's often because cuts at the federal level have pushed more and more responsibility onto the states, and states are shoving more and more responsibility onto the munis, who have the smallest tax base to deal with it, and face the most local pushback. People wanting to go back to "the good old days" are reminiscing about a time when the effective tax rate on the wealthiest Americans was over 70%. I don't actually want to return to much else about the past. But I'd take that tax rate. A billionaire can still live quite a nice life as a $300,000,000-aire. Quit whining, billionaires. You're fine." Screenshot of continued Facebook post by user Marian Call reads: "I have been to countries where people pay their taxes -- especially the wealthy -- and guess what? They're lovely. They're great places to visit and great places to live. And the envy I feel when my friends overseas or in Canada can simply go see a doctor when they don't feel well? Or a therapist when they need support? Indescribable. I just don't think taxes are bad. I think we've been gaslit as a nation into thinking they're evil -- but very rich individuals and corporations have a LOT to gain by making us believe that. They've gained everything, in fact. The greediest have secured a level of control in the US that's unparallelled in the rest of the developed world. And the rest of the world is staring at us, with heads tilted, asking "Mais pour quoi?" On the local level, my TAX ME PLEASE platform means I'll be voting NO on measure 1 and NO on measure 2. Because the $50-500 these measures might save me, as a lower middle-class artist, are better spent on flood mitigation and playgrounds and our utilities and schools and ploughing snow and parks and the arts. If there's a thing the city is doing that you don't like, this is not how you punish the city -- it's how you punish all of us. What gets cut when cuts come down? The fun stuff, the stuff that makes life here worth living. We've been trying cutting taxes. We've done it. And I'm done. Tax me, please. No on 1, no on 2."

Just because it is animated does not make it a "kids movie". KPop Demon Hunters is full of adult themes in both story and music.

I want to scream when I hear people being so surprised to like the music from some "kids movies when they are talking about an animated musical film.

Hello Void. Sorry about the screaming. It has been a week and emotions are high. If anyone had spare good vibes, maybe send them towards us for a minute?

The dog has cancer. I will not admit I love her dumb butt (running joke), but I am crying over this development.

Imagine keeping all your profits from your art/small business. Imagine the ability to do barter, trade, and take payment however you like. Imagine your own custom website for all your links, products, portfolio, services, and not competing with dropship ai art sales.

The saga begins with The Mysterious Affair at Styles.

Any avid fans want to suggest a reading order? I'm going between published date, regardless of series, and just reading each detective in order starting with Poirot.

As I've been saying more and more lately,

"We've been here the whole time."

Illinois has enshrined protections to meet this very moment.

In a time of increasing overreach and hateful rhetoric, it's more important than ever to reaffirm our commitment to the rights and dignity of the LGBTQ+ community.

I have wasted so much time and effort with wrong assumptions about my new Kobo. I blame the Sony/Amzn/B&N e-readers for how locked down everything was. But I was wrong. I really don't need to jailbreak anything to have a device that is almost exactly what I want. I'll still tweak it, but it's good.

So I did end up hearing back from Kobo. They won't sell/ship me a device directly. They told me to buy from Walmart and have them ship it to me.

The fact that they would rather I give money to someone else rather than ship here is a stupid policy.

(1/?) I'm trying to buy a new e-reader, but companies seem to think that Alaska is impossible to ship to. I have a Kindle and was looking to both upgrade to a color e-reader and get away from the Amazon ecosystem. Figured Kobo would be a good choice. They won't ship to me. #alaska #kindle #kobo
