The sculptor is Thad Markham and the collection is called Out of the Bowl. The one with the lime and lemon fighting is called The Winner Takes Olive and I must have it.

Man I’m glad you found that info because I wasn’t finding the sculptor’s actual name anywhere! 

I thought that one, because they are all cocktail garnishes, should be called “bar fight” :D

i have tried to explain why you don't want a refund to so many. everyone is like, but i like getting money once a year. BUT YOU COULD SAVE IT AND THEN GIFT IT TO YOURSELF. WITH INTEREST.

I do get why people do it -- I know some who do it deliberately as a short-term savings, either because it’s automatic or because they don’t trust themselves not to tap it if they put it in an actual savings account -- but yeah, my bank is set up so that when I get paid a set amount just goes into savings, and I can’t get the money out of that savings very easily. And I think a lot of people do it just because it’s the done thing. It’s so normalized in our culture.

"The Bananas Aren't Alone" is the name of my TMBG cover band

NICE. I like how it is at once both absurd and ominous.

I'm a tax accountant and I appreciate that you're posting this, there's so much misinformation out there and you have the viewer base to get some better info out. My understanding is that it's a credit because it's the easiest way to get money out to a lot of people at once and one of the most verifiable ways. The downside is some people won't get it if they didn't file taxes last year, but they can still claim it next year if they file next year.

Yeah, it’s not great for PR purposes but the more I talk about it the more rational it does seem to make it a tax credit. 

As someone who handled all 1000 holiday cards for last year’s mass mailing to our donors, which involved so much data wrangling, I really feel for whoever is having to pull and process all of this stuff.
