Its a convenient excuse. I know that's easy for me to say, not being the person to face the small chance of liability. I just don't know how someone trained can walk past and be like not my problem. Seems so fucking cold

    I was talking to my daughter about her sick uncle and probabilities and the goddamn worst thing happened. I saw a dice on the table so I picked it up to demonstrate an improbable outcome.

    I called "im going to roll a six" then rolled a 6. Well, thats unlikely but its a one in six chance. Highly unlikely i could do it again...

    I rolled at least 6 6's in a row. By the 5th I was convinced it was a loaded dice. I confirmed it is not a loaded dice on roll 7 or 8.

    Fucking what the hell universe

    im fucking up (lemmy.world)
     

    I have excuses, but im fucking up.

    I want to run away, off my self, whatever. I can't, I wont do that to my kids. But I think about it a lot.

    My patience is getting shorter and shorter. Again, I have excuses and maybe id give myself grace but im not getting better im getting worse.

    I don't see how I fit into my life besides my kids. Everything else is just me doing what I feel like im supposed to do.

    I just caused a big fight calling out my wife for shit she's not doing when she has to deal with me being a slug. I cant say shit, or at least I shouldnt but she asked me or alluded to me doing something I cant do easily because of my foot injury and she knows it and I got defensive and got on her about her shit. It blew up.

    I not getting at anything here just trying to get it off my chest

     

    Fucking coworkers talking about me in front of me.

    "Wow you are smiling today! You never smile!"

    "I know right! He always looks like he wants to kill himself!"

    I have depression and I don't like being a gloomy fuck and I'm trying but goddamn if people saying shit like this doesnt make me want to stay home or go ahead and off myself jesus fucking christ. Are they oblivious or are they making fun of me to my face I don't know.

     

    This shit is old and still true

    From YT description; In this compelling speech before Congress, Warren Buffett delivers a strong argument for a fair tax system, calling out the growing wealth gap and the dangers of eliminating the estate tax. He warns against a society where dynastic wealth replaces meritocracy, emphasizing the need for a progressive estate tax to prevent America from turning into a plutocracy. Buffett also proposes an alternative: using estate tax revenue to support low-income households, ensuring fairness in a system that disproportionately benefits the ultra-wealthy.

    Key takeaways include: ✅ Why removing the estate tax would widen economic inequality ✅ How the wealth gap has skyrocketed over the last 20 years ✅ The real impact of tax law changes on the super-rich ✅ Buffett’s proposal to support low-income families instead of eliminating the estate tax ✅ The moral and economic argument for tax fairness

    This is a must-watch for anyone interested in economic policy, wealth distribution, and tax fairness. Learn directly from Warren Buffett’s insightful perspective on how to create a more just and balanced economy.
