I’m firmly in the both are a bit much camp.

It’s clearly Tolkien, you racist.

Anything involving Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy

As long as he gets a few million Rubles and Yuan in his pocket, he would absolutely do this.

Good thing Biden and Lina Khan are still here working to fight junk fees. Oh… Wait

Stopped using Facebook when they killed the feed and started inputting random shit instead of posts of people I actually know. Slowed way down on reddit and came here when they killed RIF. Never had Twitter because it was a cesspool even before Elon. Never had Snapchat, or be real or tiktok because they all seemed stupid, and in the last one’s case, I didn’t want the CCP having any information about me. I still technically have a Facebook for marketplace and will check it on occasion, but I haven’t posted on probably like 8 years.

They lump it together. Estimated taxes AND fees. Usually the tax part is like 30% while the fee part is like 70%.a lot of hotel sites will do this for unpublished rates, and the tax part is $0.

Sometimes when I find deals like this on doordash or Uber eats, I buy them and select pickup at the store. It will drop menu prices, and have no fees added. I got a straight smorgasbord from Wingstop the other day taking advantage of 2 buy one get one deals and a $8 off $40 deal.i spent $34 to pick it up. To get the same thing delivered it was like $56+tip.

The fed ruined the housing market with their Covid response. They dropped rates to near zero with absolutely no strings attached which let everyone with money maximize their leverage and buy all the housing as investments and drive up prices. The low rates should have been reserved for first time home buyers. Instead, investors went crazy and regular families got screwed with higher prices, and then later, higher rates and higher prices. Unless you bought during the 3 months during 2020 before everything exploded, or owned already and got to refi during Covid, everyone else got screwed.
