My stepdad used to tell me about “spider karma” when I was little. Basically, all spiders are a part of a gang, and if you squash one they’ll just think he must’ve stepped out of line or something. However if you squash 3 or more, the spiders will all start talking to each other and plan out attacks on you when you’re most vulnerable. Sleep attacks are the most common, but occasionally they’ll get so pissed they choose to hide in a jacket or shoe and sacrifice everything just to inflict a little pain and terror for killing their mums or siblings.

I used to actually believe this btw.

Edit: why the downvotes to OP? home maintenance is always the best method for keeping pests out. No need for spiders indoors if ya dont have bugs indoors!

That delta (+3%) would still concede ground to conservatives when pre-Trump corporate taxes were at 30%. Even Biden told Congress it should be at 28%.

It’s just too reactive to want the opposite of what the new conservative playbook is. The best corporate tax rate for the average person has nothing to do with what Trump or P2025 think, so formulating our economic systems around the opposite of them won’t work either. We need a materialist analysis of our economy by experts and academics to determine what any particular tax should be in able to develop economic situations that best benefit regular people the most.

Rhetorically: What’s the antithesis of an 18% (base) corporate tax rate?

Project 2025 is fucking awful, but just doing the opposite of them doesn’t make sense when the working conditions of regular people can only be improved through a materialist view of the world, as the opposite of their goals isn’t what our goals are.

Fuck it 🤷🏻‍♀️ my uncle dropped 8k on a 3D printer post-divorce, and if working on a lil art and engineering makes him feel better I can support that.
