Did you have to submit a new picture or did they reuse your old one? Mine is coming due in 6 months.

My last 30 year mortgage was at 2.375. I have since sold that home and never plan on buying in the US again.

Being able to use TikTok on your phone doesn't make you tach savvy. They don't know anything about how it all works. It's a false dichotomy.

What book that hasn't been adapted into a TV show or movie do you think deserves an adaptation? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

The Traveler by John Twelve Hawks.

He is a little fucking nuts but the book is fun.

Why Are So Many Americans Choosing to Not Have Children? in c/news@lemmy.world

I find that the people who spout so much about passing on their genes, or passing on their legacy or keeping the bloodline going. Are the people who you would least like to see pass on their genes. I find it to be the height of narcissism.

What about "I just don't want one." is that not a legitimate line of thought? That was what I based my decision on. I have never understood why the default state was marriage and then have a family. I can tell you that me and my childless wife are family.

Who else was traumatized by the killer bee TV movie in the mid 90s? in c/nostalgia@lemmy.ca

Growing up I thought killer bees and quicksand we're going to be a lot more prevalent than they actually are.

This line was very telling "Russian state TV’s coverage of Harris—which is a carbon copy of what is playing on Fox News..."

Fox News is basically a Russian state propaganda arm.

The year is 4,000. After peaceful floating in zero-gravity, astronaut Barbarella lands on the frozen planet Lythion and sets out to find renowned scientist Durand Durand in the City of Night, Sogo, where a new sin is invented every hour. She encounters such objects as the Excessive Machine, a genuine sex organ on which an expert artist of the keyboard--in this case, Durand Durand himself--can drive a victim to death by pleasure, a lesbian queen who can make her fantasies take form in her Chamber of Dreams, and a group of ladies smoking a giant hookah which dispenses Essence of Man through a poor victim struggling in its glass globe. The special-effects crew constantly impresses.
