@p Intent. "Just asking questions" tends to be a baited bad faith argument. Instead of asking questions to understand the topic and seek to provide constructive criticism, they ask leading questions based on their conceptions, deceptively worded to trap the responder with answers that sound bad without context. As for sarcasm and facetious comments, those can go either way. You can satirize something and show how to improve it, or you can just dunk on it ad nauseam.
Admittedly that's not a super clear cut metric, but you can suss out most of it with critical thought.
@p@anemone@catgirlswaaag Constructive criticism vs destructive criticism. "Here's how we can maybe make this better" vs "I hate you, piss off, spawn of Satan".
@p@thegreatape@lain ...can you relinquish ownership of something without selling it? Like it's dumb that they're taxed annually on what is essentially an inheritance item of emotional value (I forget the specific term), but they gotta at least have a way of giving it up so they don't have to pay taxes on it. Also I have heard of trusts and vaguely know they're useful, but I've never read up on how they work.
@p I'm pro tax in general but damn that's a lot. Tax if you have it, tax if you give it away. Kinda sounds like an estate? But I know estates are taxed. Maybe trusts aren't.
@p > they sell this as a tax on the wealthy, but it never touches them Literally describes every tax ever. Most taxes tax you more the more you do them, and the people that have more money tend to use that money more. The only exceptions are things that poor people tend to do more because they're poor, which are bad for different reasons.
@thegreatape@lain 1. Spend all your money on expensive stuff 2. Leave expensive stuff in will to kids 3. Maybe some kinda finances and tax code loophole??? 4. Profit
Fucking hell I got got. XD I woke up from a nap and got a text from "USPS" saying that they'd detained a package because I hadn't updated my address. Now I was expecting something, but through Amazon, but sleepybrain didn't question that. Also I did move and figured that updating the address should happen anyway. So I do the thing, then it asks for a small amount of money for shipping. By this point I should have been awake enough to realize that 92 cents is a weird amount to exclusively charge a card, weird that cards are all they accept, weird that they didn't accept my debit card, weird that the page hung on loading after I used my credit card, EXTRA weird that the link in the text was bitly and amazopics in the browser, and after a minute of staring is when I realized it and scrambled to order a new credit card and block my debit, just to be safe. I might unblock it later, I'm assuming that if they didn't want it, they don't have that info, but it expires in less than a year, so I should probably get a new debit anyway.
One time a friend posted a picture of Ricardo Milos holding hands with a pregnant 02 in a hospital bed. I was so disgusted by it that I printed the art and burned it and sent them a video of me doing so.
