This post right here officer, look at this man saying such illegal words on the internet!

Interesting. I would have imagined, considering the small price, people would just pay the minimal cost to get plastic - bags but it seems people actually began to avoid them which is great news.

Meh I was more nervous based on the title, but it’s basically an app(malware) that people are told to install which can access phone details.

Sorry I was originally responding to another comment, but I figured I’d make mine a main comment to the post. The missing context to my post, that I just added, is “According to forbes, his net worth is about 5.4 billion. 276 million is about 4% of his net worth paid in tax.”

So adding to your point that the tax system is fucked, I’m paying a higher percentage of taxes than a billionaire, and I’m not even a millionaire.

Yeah I’m hoping that person is young

Also if the person is barely starting to work… which I hope is the case and not that this person doesn’t have a lot saved.

according to forbes, his net worth is about 5.4 billion. 276 million is about 4% of his net worth paid in tax. I just checked what I payed in taxes vs my net worth. I paid about 11% of my net worth(not income) in taxes this last year. Damn that sucks looking at the numbers lol. At least he’s almost halfway towards getting there and happy to pay. I’m curious what it looks like for others. I’m in my 30s for reference in high cost of living location.

Why are net worth taxes stupid compared to taxing loans?

So the people teaching the game with you should make sure everyone is aware of the game time and expectations, first of all. I love board games, but would be a bit irritated if someone expected me to play Terra Mystica at a moments notice. The only exception that comes to mind is if they’re cool with ending it early because I wouldn’t be able to play the whole time.

Since your friends don’t seem very responsible, you have to do more legwork. I would ask which game is being played, and what the expected game time is. In addition, let them know your time limitations and that you’ll have to leave by a specific time whether your finished or not. This may lead to less invitations (“lets start a game of Twilight Imperium 3 at 830 Pm on a Tuesday night! but lets not invite Meep_Launcher because he’ll leave the game early”) but at least everyone will be aware of the situation before hand.

Ideally, your friends will work around the person with the most restrictive schedule, “only 2 hours? lets play some love letter, DND Inn fighting game, and Port Royale”. If they really want to play Monopoly, you can suggest a better time when you would be interested in playing where you’d have sufficient time to finish the game.

Bro what?! You have a source? This is very interesting

Lol if fish and chips pricing keeps increasing, as I’ve heard they are, the saying may become less popular.

automation is a big part of Rimworld IMO. Allow these special foods to be automated would be helpful and reduce micromanagement.

What are family games? In regards to your question, i honestly don’t use categories a lot in BGG, but the few times i did, it was useful.

Darn tough socks are the only brand I’ve tried. I bought mine about 4 years ago and no issues. I’m worried what people are saying about lower quality recently. Hope that’s not the case
