Unionhawk

No, by the time I saw it they made 2 angry posts about how they weren't taking suggestions anymore

But it was a lot of really cool stuff like, make an app for healthcare, or whatever

Oh of course the dude in the Hoover Bridge standoff was QAnon

He's since been arrested

GodEmperorDune

@TimStone like he was behind the QAnon stuff?

Tim Stone

Nah just like someone who "researches" the deep state or whatever, they're all off the wall

He had a sign telling Trump to "release the reports" which:

It's my understanding that the "reports" refer to the unredacted IG reports.

McDonalds to roll out alternative to plastic straws in thousands of US restaurants http://hill.cm/NYGYNoy

Tweeted by thehill on June 16, 2018 at 4:01 AM

Like yes plastic straws are bad but they're replacing them with paper straws which are awful

Unless they have cracked the code to making them not awful, I cannot be excited

straws are useful for people with disabilities

and paper straws are not that bad

Aaaaaaaaa canvassing day

Fuck you matt bevin

I honestly don't know what I want my initial pitch to be

Because we essentially have two separate but related asks

"are you or anyone you know on Medicaid because you're in danger of losing your coverage to paperwork hell", and "we want to make healthcare free for everyone does that sound like something you want too"

Wipqozn

2:15 PM

@Unionhawk BAsed on what I've seen, the answer to the second question is "No free handouts"

Unionhawk

2:45 PM

@Wipqozn this is where targeting neighborhoods comes in for the most part

And the universal part of it

"everyone gets the thing, and we get rich assholes like Elon and probably Bevin to pay for it"

Like this shit generally plays pretty well

There are good doors and bad doors but

user15026

@GodEmperorDune I saw a really good chart on twitter explaining why plastic straws are the most useful for disabled people but of course I can't find it nowwwwww

user15026

(A lot of it is positionability - metal straws can't be easily changed, neither can glass, paper ones (afaik) don't have the bend)

user15026

I fooooound it

user15026

@buff12ca @DruhFarrell You are part of the problem. I am stocking up plastic straws. 🥤🥤 #yyc

Canvassing went ok

Had a couple good conversations, and I think we achieved our goal of trying to make what Matt Bevin and the rest of the assholes in Frankfort are trying to do, and how to navigate it more transparent

Meanwhile, in somehow even more horrifying news than "matt bevin is trying to get people off Medicaid through paperwork hell":

Minneapolis police told EMS workers to sedate people with Ketamine, often at the protest of the drugged, and sometimes when no crime was being committed

Tim Stone

raises brow I'm sorry what now?

GodEmperorDune

10:26 PM

@TimStone you have 360 accounts?

@TimStone what's ACH or...?

Tim Stone

@GodEmperorDune Capital One 360 is their online-only banking thing

@GodEmperorDune Something along the lines of the JG Wentworth dude "It's my money and I need it now!" (except I don't and am not transferring any money but who are they to put a limit on it)

GodEmperorDune

@TimStone federal law bruh

especially bank to bank ACH transfers

tl;dr: blame money launderers

Tim Stone

Has that always been the case though? This is the first time any bank has ever tried this with me

Right, I get the purpose, just like, what

Also despite this email I have literally no idea how you determine what the limit is

GodEmperorDune

there are hidden limits that they don't tell you about, but if you go over them then the info gets sent to the feds

Tim Stone

Right, I don't care about that part so much as say, not being able to make the payment out of the account I put my estimated tax money into |:

GodEmperorDune

10:30 PM

this is the thing that got leaked to avenatti about michael cohen

Tim Stone

Like reporting it is one thing but actually preventing the transfer

Love too launder money to the IRS, etc etc

GodEmperorDune

@TimStone pretty sure that transferring stuff to the IRS is ok

its not a bank to bank transfer in that case

but you could specifically call up their support and see

Tim Stone

Direct Pay is an ACH transaction

(which is the only way to avoid paying fees when paying online, since somehow the federal government is unable to be its own payment processor 🙄)

GodEmperorDune

again i don't know capital one's backend, but usally there are risk profiles and big data and such, and people putting money into tax accounts then paying to IRS quarterly or w/e is a normal activity and doesn't get flagged

Tim Stone

Yeah, I'm not too worried from a practical standpoint I've just never had a bank come out and bring this up before

GodEmperorDune

10:35 PM

its a weird thing to say "we might stop transfers and there's a limit but we're not gonna tell you"

but the reason they don't tell you is to avoid money launderers toeing the line

like if there is a withdrawl limit of $10k per day, they do $9999 per day instead

Tim Stone

I should have mentioned that the email is titled "Timothy, check out your new transaction limits", lol

So I was like 🤔

GodEmperorDune

(which technically is also supposed to get flagged but the bank in question played dumb and got written up for it)

Tim Stone

This reminds me of the beforetimes where Sarah Jeong's bank account became compromised and the only solution BofA had was to set the balance to like -999,999 or something absurd like that
