If you make lunch long enough you’ll need to take a lunch break.

No, ‘nothing’ is definitely written on that stone.

You should read Flatland it’s an awesome book and blew my mind as a young textile geek.

Dude, politics is a system that society has created to prevent change. When you get that, the western system of governance makes more sense.

You’re looking at it from the wrong side. Imagine a politician saying, “we’re starting a new tax, 20% of your income”. You ask why, what’s it for and he says “everything!” how keen are you for that?

All taxes were created one at a time and sold to people individually. Politicians said “we need money for x, we need to tax y to pay for it”. Run for office on a platform of eliminating all taxes with your omnibus tax reforms and we’ll see how it goes.

I think because when a tax is getting implemented the people want to know exactly why they pay it and what it’s for.

Here we have school boards that manage a very large area of many schools. The taxes of many municipalities pool to fund many schools. These tax systems are old and probably very hard to change. I’m sure there are better ways to do things but the political might to change the system isn’t there.

I’m all for tax reform, but people need to understand what taxes pay for what stuff. I’m sure municipalities would like a different way to generate revenue than property taxes as well.

In Canada we like “sin” taxes on bad for you things. The lottery funds schools, liquor taxes fund health care for example.

I want to pay and gladly will for community enrichment,

Most people say this and I agree. And then the comment under you is complaining about paying property taxes which directly pay for these things you’d like to see funded.

I can’t tell if it’s an Americanized version of lighter or litre.

The worst part is, after you block all the foreign language communities, all the Linux, all the loli anime, there’s very little left.

Well, I can see twice as loud as a gerbil so fuck you cat.

If you get really frustrated you can run your tongue around it. Your tongue is much more sensitive than your finger and will find the ledge. Gross though.

If you’ve done 6 impossible things this morning, why not round it off with a partially skeletal scream?

That’s probably it. I was going to go with a view from the floor looking up.

There hasn’t been a post in /sailing in 2 years. Depends what you’re looking for I guess.

I feel the same same way about Linux posts and pervy anime. Blocking communities is how lemmy dispenses dopamine.

I recommend finding communities you don’t like and blocking those, then browse the all feed. Otherwise you get 3 posts a week.

I paid $15 for the optional supportive bandage.
