I just signed up for my local Nextdoor; holy crap, it’s 75% commercial ads, about 10% personal ads, about 10% dogs/cats/kittens, and 5% misc. Utterly useless.

well, right now, google is demanding who knows how many captchas before it will do my search; DDG is not. So that’s what I’m using. -quak-

Depends on the job. Some state employees get pensions, yes. Private employers usually do not provide pensions. The majority of people are going to get Social Security after they reach a certain age, but only if they’ve worked for a certain number of years. And Social Security can be as little as $1200/month. (It was never intended to be someone’s sole income in retirement, just a supplement.)

welp, guess I won’t be looking at those things, then. DuckDuckGo it is.
