  1. If I have problems with my Zenni glasses, my optometrist will check them for free. If there's an issue, Zenni has an easy return policy that I have used more than once.
  2. It's land so it's not depreciable. It doesn't sound like stock in trade. It also doesn't sound like it was used in a trade or business. So it would appear to be a 1221 capital asset. You're probably thinking of 1231 gains treated as capital for other types of assets.
  3. If it is all capital gains, invest the proceeds in a Qualified Opportunity Zone fund.
  4. It is currently unborked for me on Safari/iOS.
  5. IOS Safari now works, but only in landscaped mode.
  6. She should have received a notice by now is a key point. If her finances are so disorganized, there is no real way to tell what is going on without pulling her IRS transcript. If she won't owe, it might be better to extend 2018 and then hire someone after April 15th to look at her transcript and file her 2018 taxes.
  7. Here are some screenshots from this morning and last night.
  8. Yeah, it is intermittent now. I’ll post a screenshot tomorrow if it’s still doing it
  9. iOS Safari site is borked. It looks like it is the score thing, it compresses the post text to a single, vertical line.
  10. You can take 179 on a residential rental, but just for 1245 property, not for HVAC. That was one of the TCJA changes.
  11. I was surprised that they didn’t look her up and find out she was Gordon’s ancestor.
  12. My wife is a teacher and we've been binging The Wire, which is the first time she's seen it. Yesterday she told a student "to stop acting like a corner kid."
  13. I use Waze to take my kid to school. It's only a little over two miles, but it allows me to avoid traffic jams along the usual route. Sure, that's only once a year, but it's better than him being late.
  14. It is the CEO of a packaging company. See page 36.
  15. It is still unresponsive if I'm logged out. If I log in on mobile via the button at the bottom of a thread, the menu starts working if I tap on it. IOS 12.14, iPhone 7+, Private mode enabled on Safari.
  16. Signing in is borked in IOS again. It was fixed, but now the sign-in menu on mobile is non-responsive. I have to click into a thread to sign in.
  17. https://www.theregister.co.uk/2019/02/26/ibm_racist_job_applications/ Last line is mine, not the article's.
  18. Married men can be ordained. This is normal for Eastern Catholics. Even for Latins, formerly Protestant ministers can be ordained as married men. In fact, the documents that set up the so-called "Personal Ordinariates" for former Anglicans entering the Catholic Church allow the ordination of married men who were not previously Protestant ministers -- provided that Rome approves.
  19. Most surveys put the number of homosexual Catholic priests somewhere between 15% and 60%. Informed observers, (such as the psychologists who treat them), put it higher for the bishops and cardinals. Since the Vatican consists of bishops, cardinals, and wannabe bishops climbing the career ladder, 80% would not be shocking. The situation is compounded by the fact that Italy is a hotbed of organized crime families whose members have always sought to suborn clerics to use in their schemes and that, in certain respects, there isn't much difference between the criminals and the Vatican bureaucrats. So even if a gay priest is celibate and chaste in his home diocese, when he goes to Rome the coke-fueled orgies are just too tempting. There was even one crazy example of (presumably bisexual) man who fucked girls before entering seminary, switched to dudes in seminary, and then quit the Church to go back to women. So sometimes it might be like prison. Some of these dudes may not even be gay, but they started seminary in their early teens and kinda went Spartan warrior. Who knows?
  20. Wear whatever color shoes Pete Campbell wore to daytime work events.
  21. My suburb requires solicitors to obtain a city license and to wear both a badge and a yellow vest. It's a good system and the police will come for unlicensed solicitors.
  22. The thing about the Southern Baptists is that they operate much like the public schools. They don't have to shift people around within their organization. They just let the abusers go and don't warn the next district. Same thing with the Baptists.
  23. Sock-shoe-sock-shoe makes sense if you have cats that track litter all over the house all the time.
