lmao NYT Columnists are jumping ship: Nick Kristof - "President Biden, I've seen enough"
  • If he steps out of the race now, do his delegates become unbound?

    It wouldn't automatically go to Kamala, she isn't technically on the ticket even. That gets formalized at the convention.

    Its all a moot point though because he won't step down

  • Anything look good on the Steam Summer Sale?
  • It was already on sale, but if you like city builders, logistics, and communism then Workers and Resources is fresh out of early access and supposed to be really good. Same publisher as manor lords and some other good games. I was gonna give it a try tonight

  • What Christian leftist movements are there now?
  • What Jesus said and did is mostly pretty dope. The early church was dope to and fully organized around mutual aid. But then it quickly became authoritarian/apostolic. Even in a 'leftist' church the precedent always seems to be respecting authority above all else

  • One-Third of Americans Making $250,000 Live Paycheck-to-Paycheck, Survey Finds
  • You leftist bozos have no idea how hard it is to make payments on my lifted F350, my wife's Suburban, all the while still paying off our mortgage for our 6 bedroom 8 bath. Not to mention Disney increased prices which will make our Florida vacation even more expensive. Trump please save us...

  • Anyone donate plasma for cash?
  • The plasma centers make medicines from your antibodies and shit. Technically you aren't selling your plasma, and it is a donation, but they are Just compensating you for your time. That's the loophole I guess

    Idk why blood banks don't pay except for a $10 amazon gift card or a tshirt here and there. Maybe they just have enough public goodwill and there is still enough altruism left in this world

  • Anyone donate plasma for cash?
  • I did for a period. It kinda sucks because if they mess something up you don't get paid. Sometimes you have to wait a while and it makes it not as worth the time. The pay generally goes down after your first month promo is over

    Still, its worth trying out and was good time for getting some reading done. It really depends how well your center is run

    I never had any medical issues or side effects, except that alcohol would hit me like a truck the days I donated

    The whole premise of it a is really icky and you are being exploited in a major way. The people working there are also not paid all that well AFAIK. You'll notice that the centers tend to be in low income neighborhoods. And while they say you are "doing a great thing" and helping people with rare diseases, you are really helping them turn huge profits as the specialized medicines they make from the plasma are very expensive for the patients as well.

    I had the best time with grifols/biomat. I also tried biolife (decent) and octapharma (bad)

    When you're promo is up, you can switch to a different center for their promo but you must wait one week in?between.

  • I don't want to come off like a shill, but if you want online work (US based) I can refer you
  • I also work for outlier. Its kinda bullshit because last week my project abruptly ended, then I got added to a new project which also abruptly halted but supposedly will restart this week. So a whole week so far with no tasks. But when the goings good it is nice and flexible and pays.

    The pay scales higher if you have more advanced degrees / expertise, so for those who want part time remote work and have a graduate degree its especially worth it. Depending on the project it can actually be pretty interesting and stimulating
