Plugging freetaxusa, I've used it for ~4 years. Only cost is ~15 for state taxes. If you used the free file option chances are freetaxusa won't have any issues with your taxes

I believe a Congress women is not being sworn in since she said she would vote to release the files and the speaker of the house is blocking that. Without swearing in she is effectively unable to officially partake in votes.

Minneapolis is okay for public transportation. The light rails are great, but bus travel falls way off only coming every 15-35 minutes depending on the route. The 35 minutes for a bus makes reliability very very hard, even when you plan around it so taking it to work wouldn't be feasible without planning to get to work 0-30 minutes early

He got caught, it invites more attention on them. If I was trying to hide smoking weed from my parents and my best friend got caught smoking weed, I wouldnt be too thrilled with them either.

Good luck on the thesis and I hope my data points can assist your research! I'm sure the community would love to see your finished thesis when it is done

That's a bit of a gross oversimplification. Overseas or foreign product? Sure tariffs apply 100%.

But what if the modified corn gloop is processed with a machine from Germany? And quality inspected with a sampling device from Canada? And the cameras used to inspect the packaging come from Japan? And the computers to power the logistics operations come from Taiwan, Korea and China?

Sure the corn gloop isnt taxed via tariff, but every single part of its manufacturing just got 20-120% more expensive (and supply chains got that much less predictable). Most businesses would go under if they tried to eat that cost.

The answer? Sweeping tariffs mean sweeping price increases. The list of which prices won't go up will be infinitely smaller.

 

Every holiday, at whichever house is hosting, there is nothing but a laundry list of DIY tasks and shit that my family just expects help with. I get it, helping family and all that, but I really don't want to buy a plane ticket/driving across the midwest into a different state, use my limited PTO, then what time I have installing lights, a toilet, a storm door, a TV mount, and god knows what else instead of watching movies, sports, reading books, relaxing, boardgames, etc.

There is never a thank you, never respect that my time is going into somebody else's project, not attempt to learn to do it themselves, nothing. Just another errand to run or project to install. It would be one thing if my family members weren't able-bodied or the projects couldn't be done safely solo, but that is not the case. The thank you, if there is one is when I am leaving. My time doesn't feel appreciated, my talents or skills are expected and not respected, and when I'm annoyed by a situation I'm the problem.

There are a million reasons I should be thankful for a family that cares and gets together over the holidays, but I am so incredibly over not being appreciated or respected that I am just angry and bitter instead.
