Another bad joke

Yesterday, a glitch kept sending iPhones the same CNN news alert repeatedly. But if I wanted to be annoyed by the same CNN news alert over and over, I'd just watch CNN for five minutes.

24 weeks gestation pictures

Here's the story.

My Facebook news feed fed me another story about ground up babies, saying that babies born at 24 weeks gestation look like this:


So how dare anyone deny THAT is human life and grind that precious living baby into dog food?

Well, it's not a picture of a baby 'just born' at 24 weeks gestation. I'm not sure of the original source or who might have hijacked the family album. It might be a premature birth baby 4 months or more after birth. Or, even longer. Again, only Mom and Dad really know and someone else hijacked their love and privacy.

So what does it look like with a live birth at 24 weeks gestation? Something more like this picture from the public domain:

Bad joke

I sent my manuscript to the publisher.

They sent it back and said I should write dialogue.

Tax cuts

Let's say I get a tax cut this year. Next year, I won't notice the difference.

Don't you know why? Sure you do!

My 'income' or take home pay will be normal to me.

The only benefit from tax cuts are short term.

Let's say I get a tax cut this year of $1,200. I'll spend it on paying bills and servicing debt. It's 23 dollars a week. The average household that’s carrying credit card debt has a balance of $15,654. That tax cut, if applied to credit card debt of $15,654 at 21% interest, would never pay off the balance. Even at 18% simple annual interest, it never pays off. Even at 12% interest, the debt never pays off.
