Meme culture can seem volatile and fickle to some, which is why it can be reassuring and comforting to find something you can depend on. Something like this delightfully named Twitter account that promises to deliver hit posts every hour.
Do the memes come every hour, on the hour? No, but he who curates a meme page with over a million followers and maintains a perfect hourly post schedule among you, let him cast the first stone. This account has excellent taste in memes and has the follower numbers to back it up.
It takes more than just diligence, as even a boomer can post an hourly stream of memes. It takes someone with a discerning eye and a finger on the pulse of the memeiverse who is industrious enough to provide us with a regular supply of memes. Hourly Hitpost truly is a meme connoisseur, so scroll down to see some of our favorites before you head on over and give them a follow.

Join the bullies against yourself and confuse the s**t out of them
Though memes are jokes, meme curation can be quite a serious business. For one thing, there can be quite a bit of money in it. After amassing a sizeable following, shrewd meme page administrators can begin pushing merchandise, creating affiliate content, or monetizing their accounts in other ways. Once you’ve got an engaged audience in the tens of thousands, someone’s going to be interested in paying you to spread their message.
So, if you were sitting on your phone, would you be humanizing a human?
I recently purchased some vinyl stickers for my van that say "Tis but a scratch!" and have a silhouette of the Monty Python Black Knight on them XD I can't wait to put them on the various scratches on my 22-year-old VW van!
Meme curation can also be harder than it seems. For one, an encyclopedic knowledge of what is and was popular certainly helps. At the same time, you need to be capable of staying on the bleeding edge of trends that can develop and transform in a matter of days, if not hours.
They didn't get an answer though, and the thread is locked. This is your moment to join them and ask again.
It worries me how long it takes people to learn this... And how many need drugs to reach 'hungry engineer' levels of enlightenment.
I can't believe the US tax system works like this. Why do you folks put up with it?
As for this, and the countless other long-term solvable issues plaguing the US: We're over-run by idiots.

First - they want your money, not for you to be in jail. Second, paying taxes is not complex. Paying less taxes is complex. They're not looking to put people in jail, they're looking to get money. The complex part is added by the wealthy, so that they can pay less taxes. If you make less than the top 20% by income, the more complex parts of tax code are not going to affect, you, since you won't get much by way of tax return. If you're 29, single, and get paid of $50,000 a year, you will pay some $4,200. If you've paid nothing, you will get a letter from IRS, saying "you owe us $4,240, pay up in the next X months, or you will owe up more". There are a half a dozen governmental websites which will do the calculation for you. However, if, instead of the standard deduction, you want to itemize your deductions, you're on your own.
I was about to give a downvote because of the $$$ and thought it was spam 😅

I always get money back so I go to one of the tax places for 100. They guarantee their work and it takes 15 minutes.
My mom is a professional tax consultant, so yeah me.

The government does not tell us how much tax we owe. We have to figure it out every year. And if your life is complicated in any way it gets very confusing. There are child deductions, but they're different depending on how much childcare you paid for. There are deductions for things like medical but only a certain percentage above a certain percentage of what you make. This can include actual doctor's visits, transportation and prescriptions. If you have a home office or business you can write off percentages of rent, utilities etc. You can write off anything you buy for the business, including, thank God, the tax accountant. If you are an independent contractor you pay one amount bc your entire paycheck is taxed for social security. But if you become an LLC or a corporation and you pay yourself a salary you can save $10's of thousands of dollars bc you only pay social security on the salary you give yourself. And on, and on. A million things like this. Plus state and local tax law.

We tried to change the tax process to simplify it and the tax prep corporations stormed capital hill with lobbyists and money. Nothing changed.
Pay too little, experience consequences. Pay too much, experience same consequences.
IRS the mafia absolutely no difference you pay up and if you don't your life is ruined or taken either way the government no damn different
I loathed filling out tax forms, and inevitably made errors that the IRS corrected. So, I didn't hire an accountant until I had payroll to contend with.
A very long time ago (1981 - 1989) a certain US President wanted the IRS to impose a fine on taxpayers if they either had a refund of more than $500 or had to pay more than $500 after filing. Congress sat up and took notice and said "No."
The sad thing is that when you take advice from them and it's wrong you pay the penalty.
Does the GW really tell time? I don’t see any numbers or anything in there.
I would consider lizards to be a valid form of currency (the value goes down if the lizard bites me, though)
Ah, I see Musk is turning out to be that paragon of free speech he insisted he was.
