How much does this add to the cost/barrel.

lickmygiggle··on 30 Facts About Childhood Today That Will Terrify You
We try to limit our kids screen time and for the most part let them watch what they want as long as it’s age appropriate. The one exception with absolutely no compromise in our house is shows or videos of other people playing with toys. The videos are so insipid on top of the absurdity of watching other people playing with toys. Call me an elder millennial but it’s equally as absurd as people watching twitch players with single player games. Maybe don’t touch grass but fuck, man, do something yourself.

lickmygiggle··on Larry Page leaves California to protect $12.5B from proposed wealth tax
If I make a dollar and you make 10 selling apples on a road paid for by the public why shouldn’t you be held any more responsible for the upkeep of that road?

I sincerely hope the notion that avoiding your taxes is theft from the public at large returns in any semblance sooner rather than later. Nobody likes paying for taxes but the notion that all of these billionaires became as such without utilizing any resources or regulations paid for by the public is completely upside down (to put it as gently as possible)

These people are stealing from you. Jail them like the thieves they are or make them pay back into the system from which they so happily benefited.

lickmygiggle··on NOAA Forecasts Solar Storm (G4)
I saw that stat on their chart. My question with it is 100 or so storms per cycle that just burp out into space period, or is it 100 or so per cycle that interact with Earth?
lickmygiggle··on Uber shutting down alcohol delivery service Drizly
Massachusetts has some pretty weird laws surrounding alcohol. I've seen it in the occasional gas station, grocery store, or convenience store but for the most part here if you're looking to buy alcohol you're going to a store that specializes in that.

I hate to ask too much identifying information but I would love to know your demographics.

From my personal anecdotal experience (born around the mid 80s) by the time I was in school you were more of a target of ridicule for making fun of glasses than wearing them.
