    This is a worry and problem I’ve never had and don’t really understand. One of the joys of social media (including the fediverse) is that you’re judged by what you say and who you are, not what you look like. As a lifelong fat slob and general ugly person, I appreciate that.

    I welcome anyone bright enough to chat intelligently, regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, gender, religion, disability, age, etc.



















  • Google tells me BofA’s net worth is around $228-billion, so these fines and refunds add up to about 1/10th of 1% of the company’s value.

    What does the bank get for that money? No charges against anyone involved in at least tens of thousands of felonies, which seem quite similar to many thousands of earlier felonies nobody at the bank was charged with, in 2014 and 2022.

    If I committed tens of thousands of felonies, repeatedly, could I get BofA’s deal? I’m worth about $5,000, including my life savings and everything I own, so I’d have to pay a $5 fine.
