I actually never got the impression he was rich from the movies. All Hagrid really says is “You dinne think they’d leave ya with nothing?” And they show a pile of coins.

To a child with almost nothing but some school expenses who lived on handmedowns, he might feel rich but he didn’t rush out and replace his broom himself when it broke each time.

His parents also weren’t old or particularly famous outside their role in Voldy’s death, so I don’t know where the richest could have come from outside his Father’s family.

It’s always this. History has borne it out.

I’m kinda baffled by the ruling being about the rape then. If it’s legal there it didn’t need to even be stated. Instead it should be about the murder of his wife. I wonder what their laws around manslaughter are like. I’m sure the judge would call it an accident (because they’re awful) but it’s still an action that directly led to her death and that seems like something that should be punished.

They don’t unless you have a good contract with them and even then it’s dependent on zones and package size.

Fun fact: USPS acknowledges that our US territories are domestic while UPS and FedEx treat them as international. So its a little more of a chore and cost to ship to Puerto Rico and the like through anyone but USPS from the 50 states.

It isn’t really.

We don’t, unless it’s alot of food. So much food in fact that the equivalent sized package would cost more than $10.50 for USPS to take 3+ days to deliver.

I love USPS but this whole thread makes people look like they’ve been huffing markers all afternoon.

Not just same day, same hour. That 1/3 cost comes with a 50x delay.

Dreamland.

There are as many houses as people want but not all the the quality or location they want. Manufactured homes can be dropped on lots for a fraction of the price. People live in the central valley and commute so they can have a home for much less. The world will never have everything everyone wants the way they want it. Thats not this world.

If them buying it denied other legitimate buyers with the same purchasing power from doing so, then yes. A home is too unique a purchase to be scalped though. It’s like art in that the house is the only 1 one available exactly like it. The same exact house built on a corner or further in on the block have different values.

2 pairs of the exact same sneaker treated the same from the same production run are practically identical. Market manipulation through scalping is the only method to raise it’s price at the time of market sale.

Tickets have a limited duration they hold ANY value so their prices can be manipulated through scalping too.

Houses just shouldn’t be in the same conversation.

A home is 1 form of shelter. The luxury form. Much in the way a Ferrari is a form of transport vs a bike. The meme doesn’t show shelter in the context of a basic right. It’s showing a luxury good among other luxury goods.

What the hell does that have to do with luxury goods? The house is the only thing you Might not consider a luxury good because you need housing but, owning your own property and not sharing walls with a neighbor is in fact, a luxury.

We all good. My brother leans hard right and is super racist but he’s also got the 'tism and we all know it, so we talk mad shit to his face when he starts up.

It’s hard to take a guy seriously when he worships someone that would have sent him to the gas chambers.

I also saw the clip on YouTube where he talked about it.

It’s pretty broadly discussed online at this point. Pick your favorite search engine for additional articles on the matter.

What gymnastics? What message do you believe is being conveyed here?

People aren’t all black and white. The more people try to demonize these guys and their viewers, the more credence is given to them when they say their detractors are out of touch or lying. When we make obviously disprovable things up about the right wingers, it destroys all credibility. There’s real shit going on, and we need to stick to that.

At this point, the race is over. We need to learn from our mistakes, not double down on failed messaging.

He’s didnt endorse him til the last minute. In fact he refused to, to Trump’s face multiple times.

Harris was given many opportunities to come on the show but refused to do so under the same conditions her opponent did. Her team wanted to change the circumstances of the show too much and wouldn’t come to him. Trump completely disregarded a preexisting obligation to go on his show.

If it were my show, I know who I would like better, putting politics aside. I feel like the Rogan episodes I’ve seen haven’t really shown him to be conservative, but he platforms alot of conservatives which can be construed with him being conservative himself.

I think it’s funny that anyone who actually talks about the show like they’ve heard a bunch of episodes gets downvoted while people just saying he’s bad get up voted. It’s more Lemmy echo chamber, in action.

It’s also stupid expensive.

Wow that was a blast from the past! Still a bit of a banger too!

Yeah its so rapey, its almost unbelievable.

That only applies in shit states that allow that wage fuckery. There are several states where the minimum doesnt change based on whether the job receives tips.

This is one of the problems with the argument online. Too many off us have different realities around them. Where I’m at they get a pretty healthy minimum (~$17/h) + tips.

Being a waiter at a decent restaurant is quite lucrative in my area. I don’t want to change that for the person, after all, the waiter is getting a cut off every check. It’s like a form of profit sharing! However, I’d rather just have the prices on the menu reflect reality and the business handle all the dispersion of pay without me and my feelings getting manipulated for an extra 5% (after the previously established 18% tip standard was deemed too low by people who get tipped that for decades.)
