I mean for all we know it has nothing to do with healthcare premiums. The guy could be a fellow board member who got boned out of a bonus or something.

"We're gonna get this guy": Cops have 200 pics of Brian Thompson assassin as they give 5-word update
Hey that isn't from a microblog!
Yes, this is an excellent video! Thanks for finding this, I couldn't remember which video I saw this in when I was typing my reply.
If this is something that interests anyone reading this thread, PBS Space Time has a number of excellent videos on the topic of black holes and their theoretical alternatives.
I watched a documentary on oil execs a while ago (can't remember the name, sorry :( ). Someone asked an exec why he wasn't giving 50 of the 60 billion dollars he owned to charity or government programs and he literally said "but how am I going to feed my family" without a shred of irony.
You were being funny, but the billionaire class actually believes this.
I want to blow him damn
reddthat is pretty dope
Just be a CEO of a large corrupt corporation and someone will be along shortly to process your request.
Someone else in another thread said their friend inherited a billion dollars and is the hardest working person they've ever met and I honestly couldn't help but laugh out loud.
But then I'll be a dirty nasty poor like the rest of you!
Ah ha! Problem solved then. Nice troubleshooting skills!
You could pay my friend a livable wage so he could live in his own property for the first time in his life or you could keep the money for yourself. You are entirely dependent on him doing his job for you to earn anything, and you choose to keep the money for yourself. And you truly don't see how keeping all the money for yourself is stealing his wages? Oh and also there are hundreds of thousands of people in my friends situation, but there's only like 500 of you.
I was in a similar position to you. I had 500k karma iirc and I was legit addicted.
Delete your account. That's what I did. It was unthinkable and honestly kind of painful but looking back I'm so glad that I did. Rip the bandaid off and you'll never really have a reason to go back.
Find a Lemmy app that you like (or mbin or kbin, they all serve the same content (kinda)) and just use that.
Lemmy has far less content so when you run out of things to look at, realize that that is the addiction and try to do anything else.
When commenting, try and remember that you're (probably) responding to a real human and don't be an asshole. Admittedly I'm not always great about this but have made a lot of progress in the right direction.
Try not to get involved in the inter-instance drama. It isn't worth your time.
Its a process. You're going to find what works for you. You'll probably fail a bunch too but life is about getting back up when you fail so just keep at it and you can make meaningful change if you want to.
