You can do the same thing, buying a house and borrowing against it—ha ha, just kidding, normal people get taxed annually on their wealth via property taxes, the "you can't tax wealth, the economy will collapse!" rule applies solely to the super-rich.

For the fabulously wealthy, paying taxes is pretty much optional. They can borrow against their vast wealth, which is mostly an untaxed capital gain, without paying taxes. When they die, the capital gain goes to zero. And loopholes exist to bypass the estate tax too.

Attention mail-in voters: TODAY (Tuesday, Oct. 27) is the U.S. Postal Service's recommended deadline for mailing back ballots in states where they must be received by Election Day. You can also consider returning your ballot at your local election office or any available drop box instead.

😥 Rest in peace to an absolute MASTER of manga art. It's been such a special pleasure to work with Chiba's art on Ashita no Joe... to be able to examine his linework, tones, angles, & visual "mood" up close & in great detail. His art is truly beautiful & has a real depth. A real inspiration.

Walter Koenig was always special to me, not just Star Trek but really fell in love with him as Bester on Babylon 5. Such a perfect villain

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

Eric Bauza, the voice of Bugs Bunny and other Looney Tunes characters, has passed away at the age of 46 as a result of hypertensive cardiovascular disease. He was truly the Mel Blanc of our generation, and he will be missed. Rest in peace. #ericbauza #looneytunes #rip #bugsbunnny

From Zelenskyy. Patriot interceptors that could save innocent lives are sitting in European countries for weeks, which they paid for, unable to be transferred to Ukraine because Hegseth refuses to sign off.

“protein enriched chocolate chip cookie” is kinda the perfect synthesis of the conflicting american male desires to be a spartan warrior and also five years old

I don't know how to solve this but its not good that the health of the planet depends on elections going well every time, be it Brazil, US, Canada, etc.

First film you saw at the cinema. The real first one, not the pretend one you tell people! I think it was Lion King, I vaguely remember seeing it in theaters.

Anti-trans Democrats are spreading poison when we can least afford it, during elections in this ongoing fascist takeover. As a strategy, it’s a recipe for failure. As a moral stand, it’s reprehensible. PS I’m the father of young trans woman and I’ll never forgive anyone who makes her life harder.

This is probably my most privileged position but I wish there were more GLP-1 portioned prepared foods when you are out. Price things appropriately and all that but I don't want to feel gross and can't always carry leftovers

Senate Democrats posted this the same day Josh Turek released the worst anti-trans ad of the cycle. Meanwhile, DCCC released their own anti-trans ad last week in South Carolina.

11 days until we elect Josh Turek as the next Senator from Iowa!

scott galloway and jessica tarlov held an event here in town yesterday where “don’t impeach or waste time on investigations because ‘28” was the consensus position of the panel. so yeah, this is something to anticipate.

If Democrats actually win big because people want a check on Trump corruption I expect every move to do so will be covered in the corporate media as being risky to their 2028 position.
