This was a fun book. Solid narrator on the audiobook. (Ray Porter)

Let’s be real. Roe would not have fallen without Trump. And the erosion of the 3 branch system would not have gotten this far. With DEMs.

But that’s what they do. While eroding the working class through continued subsidies to the rich. It’s why the middle class is dead. Yea, Reagan started that death but the Dems just took their payments and quietly kept things moving, between every Repub term, bringing us to the present state of the billionaire class, lack of middle class, and a country where 60% of the population lives paycheck to paycheck.

NY State voted for Kamala.

Brings that whole Clint Eastwood “Get off my lawn” vibe to another level.

I’m not going to tell you what to do. I will point out that a partnership is just that, partnering on each aspect of the intersection of your lives. It means each partner contributes their share to the domestic responsibilities. When that mutual contribution ceases, the relationship ceases to be a partnership.

As always, protect your financials. Maintain your own bank account and avoid free loaders on loan/credit paperwork. Maintain your own passwords.

If someone wants to throw their personality at social media and see if it produces incomes, sure, why not? So long as they remain functional adults and don’t quit their day jobs until after success is proven. I think hobby sharing is where this will be the most practical. Slap a camera on your head as you do what you already do, like drawing.

Asmon is an odd one. JP reels them in by mixing some sensical advice in with his derangement. But what the entire manosphere does is beat at men’s psyche constantly telling them to “be a man” by working only for themselves.

It’s the most cognizant thing I think I’ve heard him say. The “fuck” pulls it together and makes him sound almost normal.

Almost.

It’s like that person who does a pitbull rescue. Then acts surprised as it tears apart the neighbor’s chihuahua.

I’m not a witch, I’m your wife!

I have the kitchen aid given to my parents as a wedding gift in the 70s. Harvest Gold, but I don’t care that it doesn’t match anything.

Works great. There’s a later bowl accessory to prevent things from dancing out of the bowl while being mixed but the rest is original.

Meme for people who do not cook. That bread hook is amazing.

Injection, but not vaccine.

Risk 2210. There’s 5 turns. It takes 3-ish hours.

Apparently, there are less deportations than his first term it’s simply being done more dramatically. In addition, they’re engaging no due process and picking people up AT WORK.

Of course no one wants to pick cherries. There’s probably an ICE van or three parked out by the orchards, waiting, to feed the public misinformation campaign after picking up people with a ok to be here, trying to engage honest labor.

Measles is an interesting dive. It can have a re-write effect on the immune system such that other established immunities get wiped after a measles infection.

As such, it’s best to avoid.

After that first attack by Israel, my thought was the act was a “trade” with the US.

We’ll be entirely hands off re Gaza & keep funding you, but you need to deal with some things in Iran for us.

This fits that theory.

I don’t like him, but enlistment rates are up. Granted it happened during Biden’s term too.

Usually enlistment is driven by poverty. Food. Housing. Self defense training. Trade skill training when you’d otherwise be stuck at McDonald’s or Walmart. Vs homelessness or living in a trailer with 3 generations of your family and your crackhead uncle living in his trailer parked on the same property.

It is why, in part, there’s little government pushback on poverty. Military recruitment goes up.

There was also a surge after trump won. You can imagine who those people were.

Why the 180? Spite for Putin?

What are the odds this was the trade?

Trump (me speculating): You can raze Gaza and the Palestinians to the ground, but only if you target Iran next.

I came here to say Dungeons & Dragons. People of all ages and walks of life play.

Yeah, but I wish this admin could be trusted to get him looked at, honestly, in person, by a professional.

But we can’t. We can only look on in horror as he presents like someone who could have Alzheimer’s.
