46 US states: $130k household is rich
California, Washington, and New York 30+ miles outside of a city: $130k household is average
NYC, Seattle, DC, LA, OC, San Diego, all of Hawaii: $130k household is just scraping by
Bay Area: $130k income household qualifies for low-income housing (lol)

I’m not going to read more into the beef here, but it’s worth noting that a family of four making ~110k-130k qualifies for low-income housing in four counties in the Bay Area. Choosing not to build housing pushes everyone on the housing ladder deeper into rent burden and poverty.
just read some Substack post with a maybe quarter-baked argument that the "real" poverty line is $136,000. come on

they are mongoes now. short for mongolienses. not to be confused with Oliensis, the planet from Warhammer 40k that's actually just a really really really fat guy.

Every time I see a DOGE story, I gotta be honest, I get extremely extremely sad.
Before the USDS was transmogrified into DOGE, they were one of the few employers during my last unemployment period giving autism accessible interviews with no questions asked or documentation needed.

I keep saying this but it’s at least very interesting that many doctors didn’t think ADHD persisted into adulthood until you couldn’t buy Ritalin over the counter anymore and most people stopped smoking.
yeah tbh I’d really rather be on ADHD meds and NOT have to develop a two pack a day cigarette habit as someone who’s never smoked before just to function
I guess I can drink twelve coffees a day while chain smoking if you want me to do this in a socially acceptable manner, I just don't see how that's better for my physical or mental health than Vyvanse, y'know?
