Funny, that.. you’ll be shocked by the reason!

If you are in any sort of unique demographic, like you aren’t a straight white male office worker, you might look for credit unions that serve your specific population.

Like if you do trade work, there’s options. If you are Hispanic there’s options. Veterans have several options, women and feminists have several as well. Just sort of look for whatever fits you and see what might be available on a more national scale.

And if you are a cishet white male office worker with nothing to distinguish you from anyone else there’s probably a credit union for that, too. The theme of the day is themes. Credit unions that aren’t regionally based are nonetheless community based, and I’m sure you fit a community.

Really tho I hope you find something that fits so you can buck the bank. Banks are horrible and we can do better! Through unions!

Edit: I looked up Star Trek credit union just for giggles and there’s a NASA credit union, hence the theme being themes.

This doesn’t surprise me.. but it does make me wonder what kind of person would ignore that sort of data just for money..

I mean.. really, who in their right mind says “well this is going to be catastrophic, and we could shift gears now to prevent it and release all the data and be absolute heroes among men, but nah, we’d rather it burn.”?

Money is great and all (I guess), but when the global economy collapses due to the catastrophic climate change, it’s not going to be worth a whole lot..

My drunk self is a pretty good speller. Incoherent ramblings, but all properly spelled and punctuated (best I can tell).

Got anything stronger?

That’s why I said for me, but I can see my word placement wasn’t great, and probably not clear. Such is life.

I’d never trust a company trying to sell you an overpriced product that monitors your purchase and consumption habits to get you to spend even more on ordering services or whatever nonsense their fridge does, to give better advice than a persons own body, even when said body is not working properly with signaling, or has been otherwise hijacked by empty foods.. I’d sooner trust even the worst malfunctioning body than this nonsense.

You’ve never had a pancake dog and it shows.

It’s a breakfast sausage (light on salt or omg it would be so much) dipped in a thick pancake batter and deep fried, then drizzled with maple syrup.

Interestingly, I’m pretty sure she got that “dress” (really, it’s panties and a corset with a mesh dress over top) on Amazon. I saw nearly the same thing just today. It was $25 and listed as a rave costume.

So your drug hypothesis is supported so far….

(Yes yes, I know it’s not actually the same thing, but it might as well be… normal people wouldn’t go out wherever in that..)

That’s $400/mth more than my 2013 mortgage, and you can get a property at the same I paid for mine in 2013 now, just in Indiana instead of Wisconsin.

I’ve thought about relocating because my property is now worth 3x what I paid, and that’s about the only option I have to net any perk from selling, but I don’t want to move somewhere that gets droughts in the best of times, much less with climate change.

But for someone who just wants a place? There are some, and they all come with drawbacks.

In reality children are just very small drunk adults. Without the intoxicant.

They can’t form really coherent sentences, they don’t care about social norms, and if you don’t put a stop to it they will talk your ear off about stuff only they could possibly care about.

They also throw up and hurt themselves a lot.

Drunk.

You know, I gotta say the whole Lemmy vibe has fixed a lot of that issue for me. I had some 500k karma on Reddit from comments, but I deleted all of them within a week of posting because the anxiety got to me. I wanted to be entirely transient there. Part of the conversation, but as soon as the conversation was over, gone.

Lemmy is a smaller more community-feel community in general, and other than a few bad actors, it’s really peaceful here.

I have wild amounts of anxiety about tons of things, and I don’t feel weird participating here (even without deleting all my content regularly!)

Once you get through the “I’m posting to help everyone here” barrier, which that silly message on posts with no comments helps a ton with, it’s such a good space to exist. Even if you don’t agree, if you do so from a place of open communication and accept what others want to share with you, you’ll be totally fine.

I use a password manager and have still had that happen.

Pasted from manager, incorrect. Ok, maybe I saved the wrong one… change password, use one saved because I’m too lazy to generate a new one - can’t be same as current. 😑 Fuck you, shit-ass Best Buy website.
