You are supposed to, but it is only insured to 250k. That might seem like a decent amount but if you suffer inflation and a government that is inclined to decrease FDIC rather than increase, you might end up not really getting much value out of that cash.
250k is not a very big nest egg for retirement.
Your funds might be in a HYSA but the bank holding them probably has them in stocks and bonds.
So if the stocks fall enough you won't have your money anyways.
Now you could say you want to hold onto cash instead, but the only fix for the banks not having money is to print money which makes cash worth less.
Okay but what if you held gold or other minerals. Well the value of those comes from the perception that they could be used to trade when other things fail, but even if milk is $500 a gallon no grocery store is going to take gold as it isn't able to be insured and tracked. So the value of gold also will drop as it can't actually be used for goods and services.
So basically you can't isolate yourself and protect yourself from societies stupidity. Its all a gamble and maybe your option works out or maybe it doesn't but there isn't a clear way to avoid the problem.
Specifically for a new viewer who wants 3 shows that would be different and enjoyable:
TNG:
The Inner Light, Cause and Effect, Lower Decks
DS9:
Duet, The Visitor, Trials and Tribbleations
The only people who progressives lose to are the Democrats. Even in cases where they win a primary they get kneecapped by the DNC. Most US progressives come in with wild ideas like making the rich pay things instead of poor people. Making sure water is clean. Keeping the government out of our bedrooms. Governing rather than blustering. They also tend to be relatable as most have worked at least one real job in their life.
Who in the world eats hard shell tacos?
I believe the rule is any food that is perfect for eating on the road while you drive 45min from your first job, to your second part time night shift job. All of that kind of food doesn't exist in Europe or at least isn't popular for some reason.
It is the progressive party. But they can't win a local council seat let alone any valuable position. But they run for President every year and normally run one of their established candidates. The right gains more by supporting them.
That said funding is questionable. They normally have their primary debate around a rental folding table. Im shocked they can even afford chairs.
This is a fantastic reason to talk to a therapist.
You won't ever really trust your friends or family who say you did nothing wrong. Other folks will try to explain it away but it doesn't help either. Most people dealt with this and it sucks and when it hits you when you are vulnerable it can hurt for a long time.
Focus on who you are and who you want to be and building your confidence. Focus on boundary setting and clear communication with people in general. These are skills it sounds like you struggle with based off the problems you are stressing about.
It can be scary for anyone regardless of gender. I've twice had really bad reactions, once life threatening, after a break up and I'm a big man.
That doesn't mean anyone is wrong for ghosting or getting ghosted. I just want to highlight that trying to focus on gender as if it matters is the same as focusing on race or size or religion. You shouldn't say that a black person should expect to get ghosted because some people have had bad experiences with black people.
Look maybe this person is terrible and deserved to be ghosted. Maybe the other person was awful and ghosted them to hurt them. Maybe it was just an unfortunate reaction due to personal stress. But no one deserves to be told their gender makes them just need to just suck it up and expect it. Having to deal with the stress and self doubt that comes from having someone who you thought was a part of your life decide to cut you out instantly, it sucks.
The reminder is due to the fact that she never should have been the candidate in 2024 in the first place. She was not even in the top 5 in 2020. She didn't do anything during her time as VP that made up for that gap. She was pushed in because the folks above her were two leftists, a gay man, and a rich DINO.
I don't know that she would win California and if California goes to a Republican governor that takes away one of the handful of hail mary possible counter balances to Trump right now in a possible secession action. Right now if Trump attacked Mexico and Canada it isnt unreasonable to think some states would actively refuse to support the action but if California or New York were not both states to support it then it would be meaningless.
Would be sick to get to vote for someone who actually had opinions and goals and stood for something. If we want to vote for just the general prevailing opinion we should just run an LLM and train it on superbowl commercials and cable news.
I use far far less if I use a very small amount twice rather than a lot once. The shampoo will mix with oils in your hair and when you wash once you just keep rubbing the oil and detergent mix back onto yourself. Using a small amount and rinsing it off will make it function far better.
