Awwwww.... Ted's got a little bitch friend on the board now.

Sober for 5 years and months. Haven't smoked weed in at least 7. Try again.


Speaking of things that mean nothing and don't matter at all, here we are in this stupid thread.

The median rent costs $2000 a month; Median mortgage $1,200 (We'll split the difference and call that $1,600 I'm not paying), Median car payment $700, $140 car insurance (we'll call it $127 a month I'm not paying since I do pay $125 every six months for liability), $110 average monthly credit card payment, Average student debt payment $393, Average cell phone bill $114, Average cable bill $217 (We'll call it $197 since I only pay for internet and I got them down to $20 per month). I'm sure I'm missing other things that I'm not paying for. I certainly haven't even added gasoline to this list, of which I hardly pay for at all either. That's okay... I already have enough to illustrate my point at $3,241 per month worth of bills I don't have.

Well... not MISSING them.

There's 251 working days in the US in a year (if you include holidays, which I will even though the only jobs I've had in the last 13 years didn't).

251 / 12 is roughly 20.92. We'll just call it 21 working days in a month.

$3,241 / 21 = $270.01

Yup. I'm going to make $270.01 today, tax free, simply by not being a wage slave.

Do the math yourself to figure out how much income that would be in a year and you'll get a number higher than I've ever made in a single year in my life, before taxes... And I can imagine most Americans can say the same thing, which is why we need two adults working in most households and they still rack up credit card debt to "pay" for everything.

I'm going to go wrap up the electric in my garage and clean it all up. I've got to have a spot to put the brand new shiny shed door that I bought with cash to sit until my friend's dad comes over to pay off some of the favors he owes me and we get it installed.

Have fun today at work to pay off all that shit you bought that you don't need for anything other than to impress your rich Democrat "friends", honey.




"Yup. I'm going to make $270.01 today, tax free, simply by not being a wage slave."

Hilarious. No, you're not going to make it. Go ahead, take that money that you "made" and buy something with it. Get some gas and tell the attendant the same story. "Look here buddy, I made $270 dollars today by not being a wage slave, so have some for the gas I just put in my car."

Here, let me make you even richer: think of all the money you "made" by not having a wife and kids. Not having to pay for college, no weddings, no clothes or food. No divorce proceedings (just in case), no vacations, no dining out, no bigger house, no second car, on and on. You add it all up and you might be the richest person in your county.



Oh. Somehow I missed this one. Pretty small brained of you, Cap'n.

I can go right ahead and spend that money I made not paying for wage slave bullshit, because I'm not a wage slave and I have plenty of money that isn't being spent on wage slave bullshit. Interest and high monthly bills for consumables I don't need for sure, but yeah... including the expenses that come with a wife and kids since you mention it.

I just bought me a years worth of cereal on sale for $56, shipped free to my home, so I didn't even have to use any of the gas in the tank. 480oz of it, to be exact. If I paid what the local grocery stores wanted me to pay for that exact same product in much smaller boxes, it would have cost me over $187 for the same amount. So yeah. That's another $131 I made this week by not doing that, plus the gas money I saved on not making a trip.

As far as my house, not only is it paid for, but it's been paid for so long now that had I been renting since I bought it I would have spent more on rent in that time than I did for the house and have absolutely nothing to show for it, not to mention th

Now, here's another interesting development



National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan claims that Russia is “capable of just about anything”

Quote:

Jake Sullivan, the US National Security Advisor, stated on Friday that Washington was concerned about President Vladimir Zelensky’s safety. Sullivan stated that Zelensky’s security is being supported by the US.

“President Zelensky’s personal safety is something that concerns us,”Sullivan spoke at the Aspen Security Forum, Colorado. “This is a leader in wartime, dealing with an enemy in Russia that is ruthless, brutal and capable of just about anything.”



https://www.massnews.com/us-concerned-about-zelenskys-safety-analysis/

Since when did THAT become a topic of conversation? Since everything our State department says lately has been projection, are they planning on Z's timely demise, with Russia as the ready-made excuse? Is Z to be thrown under the bus?

The first two pages of Zerohedge had NOTHING about Ukraine, and since they're a news aggregator that looks for click bait, that tells me there's no juicy headlines in the M$M, or anywhere else about Ukraine.

Maybe it's bc the front line is static right now: the Russians are consolidating their gains (de-mining, getting rid of unexploded ordnance, clearing tunnels, bunkers and trenches etc) and that Ukrainian offensive we've been hearing about since whenever (supposed to start tomorrow, rumor has it.) hasn't started yet.

Or maybe they're just trying to memory-hole the whole topic and replace it with "CHINA!CHINA!" ?

Signym, how did Zerohedge miss this?

‘Absolute evil’: Inside the Russian prison camp where dozens of Ukrainians burned to death | August 6, 2022

The Observer reports:

Screams from soldiers being tortured, overflowing cells, inhuman conditions, a regime of intimidation and murder. Inedible gruel, no communication with the outside world, and days marked off with a home-made calendar written on a box of tea.

This, according to a prisoner who was there, is what conditions are like inside Olenivka, the notorious detention centre outside Donetsk where dozens of Ukrainian soldiers burned to death in a horrific episode late last month while in Russian captivity.

Anna Vorosheva – a 45-year-old Ukrainian entrepreneur – gave a harrowing account to the Observer of her time inside the jail. She spent 100 days in Olenivka after being detained in mid-March at a checkpoint run by the pro-Russian Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) in eastern Ukraine.

She had been trying to deliver humanitarian supplies to Mariupol, her home city, which the Russian army had besieged. The separatists arrested her and drove her in a packed police van to the prison, where she was held until early July on charges of “terrorism”.

Now recovering in France, Vorosheva said she had no doubt Russia “cynically and deliberately” murdered Ukrainian prisoners of war. “We are talking about absolute evil,” she said.

By the way, Signym, Russia killed millions of German civilians after the peace treaty was signed in WWII. Russia denies it. I'm pretty sure Russia will deny torturing and killing Ukrainian civilians, too!

I suspect that Signym will care enough to declare that Russia does not torture and kill Ukrainian prisoners and that Russia did not torture and kill millions of German civilians after the peace treaty ending WWII was signed. Signym might even say, "What about prisoners in Guantanamo?" Signym won't mention that President Bush ordered the torture, to be renamed enhanced interrogation. Nor will Signym mention that Republican Congressmen have prevented Guantanamo from being shutdown by Democratic Presidents.

What a dummy. You couldn't afford those things in the first place, so no, you don't have that money to spend now. "I saved a bundle not buying that Rolex with money I don't have." fck Math
