Chicago's firefighters pension had to take a bunch of loans to pay current retirees

Fucked up I have a startup

Hey guys. Is been a rough year and I’ve fallen behind as I look for new work. I’m struggling to afford the cost of housing and pay for necessities. It would help me tremendously if you could donate to or spread awareness for my GoFundMe fundraiser, which is linked below. 🐶🫶 gofund.me/a859d47c6

Reddit occupied government 🥀

this made me realize i need to use layers and probably stop only painting with a mouse but i saw a Savrasov and decided to paint like an alcoholic russian

AEA Statement on Dismissal of BLS Comm. "The independence of the federal statistical agencies is essential to the proper functioning of a modern economy. Accurate, timely, and impartial statistics are the foundation upon which households, businesses, and policymakers make critical decisions."

I am a mod on /r/neoliberal and I will explicitly unban you if you were banned for this. I will also approve you and remove you from the spam filter for pedocon posting.

House by the Railroad - Edward Hopper 1925 But there's a train going by - Me 2025

im in my European arc (slacking at work in july)

was bullying someone making the world a better place to suicide worth the attention?

Everyone just stopped trying to understand how AIs work in like 2023. I can affirmatively tell you 100% your drawings and inane posts are actually worse than useless to an AI model and will be poison to it

As usual, people are blowing this way out of proportion. The bot is not in your servers. It has been added to Discord's repository of approved bots, server owners can selectively add them. You would need to manually add this. All the ban command does is pre-emptively add it to your ban list.

You wanna be a victim so bad bro

I find it very endearing working in finance as a twenty something means that my friends send me their robinhood profit/loss screenshots like a cat brining me a dead bird

big problem i find with anglos is that their education systems seem to prioritize nazi germany as some almost mystical state that appeared from nowhere, and was vanquished like a fantasy movie. The reality is they were the government for like 15 years

chat we might be cooked they cleared my schedule to make me talk to clients about how the current downturn is nothing to worry about

I know it’s on brand right now, but the US as a rule votes no on the zero-cost-zero-gain-nothing-measures the UN likes to do

the amount of handwaving i've been instructed to do with "our baseline is not <thing trump explicitly said he was going to do>" has been very funny actually. we just don't have the resources to model all the standard deviations of stupid

It’s pretty cool you can just vibe yourself out of having a hand in exploitation. Where does the buck stop? Delivery companies don’t just crank a knob that says “exploitation”. They’ve perfectly engineered their products to maximize you ordering high margin goods and minimizing delivery labor cost

Firefox is a meaningfully worse browser than Chrome and I’m tired of pretending it’s not because of some nebulous “they collect less telemetry” bullshit

President Biden claiming Japan's investment in an American steel company is a threat to national security is a pathetic and craven cave to special interests that will make America less prosperous and safe. I'm sorry to see him betraying our allies while abusing the law.

i forgor to post this on here me and the bestie investigating crimes @zanyfen.bsky.social 🎨: @boidbwain.art

To end this awful week on a good note: I now have the stomach flu

TIL you can do matrix algebra in excel

Just dumb to think money is the problem now. Corporations aren’t paying Trump for influence, they’re paying him because he’s blackmailing them. It’s not a bribe, it’s protection money.

It’s incredible to me that like almost 2 decades after the first automatic copyright content detection system this shit still doesn’t work on backwards media 😭😭😭

I’ll say the unpopular thing: many doctors, especially their advocacy groups, are rent-seeking leeches who push down med school graduate numbers and are incentivized to over-bill hours. They are protected from criticism by the social contract.

Shoutout South Korea for being the pre-season game to trumps inauguration

Public transit needs to be heavily policed to maintain public order and therefore confidence in the system. Over time you can switch to a high-trust model, but you can’t start there in most cities in North America.

people thinking 1 million posts is enough to train even the worlds shittiest LLM really proves that the anti-AI crowd is just as silly and mislead as the pro-AI crowd

its so funny cons post shit like this but consistently in my professional life the only people who give shit about me being trans are conservatives fretting over what bathroom I should use or if I am too "controversial" to be in client meetings

this guy is such a cuckold

I see we’ve brought back 2014 Reddit. Churches aren’t taxed for the same reason charities aren’t; most most of their revenue comes from post-tax donations. Catholic Church is the largest private institution that operates hospitals, schools, homeless shelters and other public services.

I like making eye contact with men in the airport bathroom while girl moding. ruins their day completely

What do you guys think of my pumpkin georg

Calling out “Khrushchev's mistake” and signaling about “water supply to Crimea” are such deeply niche Muscovite issues that I find it nigh impossible that even a western Russiaboo with a PhD in Russian History could come up with it on their own. This shit is 100% informed by the FSB lmao

My dad (MD at big AM firm) is currently getting in trouble for being too pro Kamala at work lmaoooo

I hate this chart (left) so much because it's misleading, banks are holders to maturity. The only interesting thing about the real data is that 22 banks have unrealized losses exceeding 100% of T1 equity. Even still, the T1 Ratio doesn't cross the forbidden 4.5% line if realized for most of them.

Morgan Stanley estimates this company is worth $175 billion MUFG estimates $110 billion Google Reports $~25 billion This clip is priceless

I did a really shit job of preening the content I wanna see and just started following people recommended to me and its created a brain melting mix of furries and Société Générale derivatives traders

I remember when everyone appointed this one tgirl living out her mean girl fantasy as the sheriff and it made this place suck when it first came out but now it seems to have moderated

I’m at the twink bucket you guys want anything

How this make you feel white boy

Some of my favorite photography as skeets 😤

Think this is good fellas

I gotta get all my unhinged thoughts out before my employer gets on here

My portrait looks like a cis girl and I’ve been getting treated MUCH differently on the phone and over bloomberg messenger even though my voice or the way I type has not changed lol
