Google is a Trillion dollar company. Fleecing the YouTube users for another 10m a year is pure hardcore end game free market capitalism.
Fuck them.

I had food come out my nose when I read the last line of that post. Lol…phew…
…and eventually you get desperate enough to drink that milk that expired 30 days ago.
Unfortunately their house of cards is built on a foundation of wealth…and not just fuck you money, but literal centuries of fuck you money.
The fortune 50 I worked for could literally stop doing all business and maintain their current spend for a century and still be solvent.
This isn’t unstable at all…it’s built to last for 100s of years…the current leaders to their grandkids will be safe.
To further that…the 1% have private armies and well stocked bunkers to ride out any social uprising. That’s the really scary stuff.
We are all fucked though. Enjoy the hunger games.
It’s the natural end for a free market. The big players take over and squeeze every drop of blood they can from the consumer class until the inevitable collapse or B&L buys the government.
Centrist views are shunned by the internet at large. Both sides hate us.
Which is fucking hilariously sad to me…Google became Google because it got rid of all those things. It was just a search box and it did search well.
Now that it has a monopoly and no competition, it’s bringing back all the ads. Fuck your results, here’s a page of sponsored links.
In a couple of decades Firefox will shit the same bed and the cycle of capitalism will continue.
Meh…embrace the toxicity and get off the internet. Be a gentleman and don’t worry about it.
Renting was probably a better choice in this market.
You don’t really even have to save money if you’re smart with the first time homebuyers credits and grants.
What I mean by that isn’t the length of time, rather the number of reps and intensity of your work out.
So I just do some basic power bands in the mornings. Usually I’ll do 3 sets of 15 on each exercise. If I’m sore from the day before, maybe I’ll only do 2 sets…or I’ll do 3 sets of 10 reps…or if I’m really hurting…skip a day.
You said you’re using the park stuff…so…for example…if I’m in a good mood, I’d try for 3 sets of 10-15 pull ups as one of my exercises. If I’m hurting that day, maybe I’ll do 3 sets of 5.
I play hockey 1/week and do TKD 3/week. Both of those vary a lot depending on who I’m playing…or if the Master is in a bad mood. Thus, my daily work outs vary a lot due to that.
I’ve got a decade on you. I really let myself go in my late 30s and picked up a bunch of sports in my early 40s.
I hurt, but mostly it’s a good hurt. There are days when I know I have to take a light day…or a light few days. I don’t know how to explain that other than I kind of know my body these days. We hate each other, but we do talk. :)
But, seriously, go light for a few days and see how you feel. Then go hard again. It took me a while, but after 2 years or so of picking it up, I’m in the 2nd best shape I’ve been in my life. (I’ll never beat early 20s me when I was playing basketball and soccer daily).
The REAL shit started when i actually worked out (we have workout machines in a nearby park), for almost 3 months im doing 20 minutes workout a day (5 times a week) and every. single. time. it feels like its getting more difficult to do than before.
Because it is…Go light a few days and see if you start recovering. If it’s just pain every day, you’re going too hard. There’s a baseline level of hurt you’ll deal with if you exercise regularly…and you start to kind of like it (which is what everyone means when they say “it gets easier”). But if that starts getting to be too much, then you’re just going too hard.
I think you’d be better off doing 40-60m every 2-3 days than trying to maintain 20 minutes every day.
The other thing, 3 months isn’t really that long. You should start rolling out of the initial hurt by then, but that depends on your age and how out of shape you are. Lighten your load a little and keep at it. It WILL pay off.
I’ll take the average immigrant’s reading level over the average conservative’s reading level.

There’s a bunch of other studies out there that back that number…It’s always generally 20% can’t read at all…50% can’t do critical analysis of text.
It’s really ugly…Those people all vote, and I think it helps explain how the most vile ridiculous demons the R’s put out there get 30%+ of the vote. It’s extremely hard to refute lies when the person consuming and believing the lie can’t read.
It’s only going to get worse. 20% of the US is illiterate. 50% can’t read above a 6th grade level.
Read that again.
1 in 2 people can not read above a 6th grade level.
That is a fucking insane statistic.
It’s fun for a minute…then…well…it’s kind of where “don’t stick your dick in crazy” came from.
Yes…it’s a dumb comment…but it’s kind of interesting too. Are we seeing the rise of the Right in the US because short form video became popular?
Stop sexualizing everyone because of what you see on the Internet. They aren’t fucking in public.
The fuck…I was there. The furries in bondage gear playing with a couple of toddlers is seared in my head. HAVE SOME SELF AWARENESS…that’s all I’m asking.
Really? I heard that’s the most kid friendly place on earth.
