Someone once said NextDoor is the social network for dogs if they could type. It’s always “what’s that noise?” and “who’s that stranger?” which is exactly what I imagine my dogs would text other neighborhood dogs.

Some of you lead miserable little lives just intentionally being insufferable on the internet. Logging on daily to say the worst shit to strangers. Seek help because life is too short to hold onto so much hate and when you're on your deathbed you won't want to be alone. Trust me.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.
That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.
So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?
