Reject adulting, return to childhood.

If you told me that ICE were cannibalizing people for this, I wouldn’t be surprised.

Soylent green, screwflies, sawdust, all seem equally plausible reasons for the source of this “beef”. I ain’t touching anything that the Turd in Chief is dishing out.

Offer a good deal to California and New York, where those states create an universal drugcare program, officially powered by Canadian supplies. On the condition that these states are very vocal about why they got Canadian Drugcare, and why the Red States are getting zip.

The Crassus treatment, but with maple syrup.

Possibly a Dark Crystal situation. If one goes, their opposite number follows…

AKA, the ones with integrity.

The Trump Regime is making history rhyme. I hope that he and the rest of his ilk end up in a room, and never come out.

Always was…

Hopefully my personal router isn’t being used by the ISP for this sort of thing. Odds are, they probably just do it, because capitalism is sucktackular by default.

I think part of the solution is to give people free stuff - but make those items generic. People like having identity. So we give everyone access to a basic toothpaste, but they can choose to buy a luxury paste that is orange-flavored toothpaste. Same goes for clothing - a basic clothing set that can be obtained for free, but things like print patterns, graphics, and so forth, have to be bought.

In effect, people spend money to make their life more interesting. Generic food, universal services, and so forth are all boring, functional, and free.

My concepts are a bit more involved than what I described here, as there are multiple angles that can be applied towards preventing fiscal obesity and political corruption. For example, an absolutely fixed income for jobs might initially sound limiting for the rank and file, but capitalism uses “circumstance” to judge the worth of workers - which gives leaders an excuse to cut wages to the bone, or to fire people they dislike, or to give the executive class fancy compensation packages. We can create floors and ceilings to what a worker can have.

More approaches, such as requiring workers to periodically elect the leadership of their companies, would also help.

Marching into the stock exchange and telling people what the numbers should be, probably…no, almost certainly. 😦

When the economy goes to shit, the practical trades are the great bastion of the working person. Strippers will thrive.

…/s? 🤔

I don’t drink booze, because it seems like an expensive habit. I don’t got any friends nor go to bars, so it is likely going to be a miserable experience. Also, one of my parents was an absolute boozehound, and certainly not someone to be respected. So I avoid alcohol, because I don’t know what kind of person I would be.

It is just disadvantages all around, with no upside for me.

When it comes to American society at large, I suspect that capitalism is the root of why alcohol use is dropping. Third spaces are going extinct, budgets are tighter, time is limited, and work demands greater effort to make ends meet, and most people lose their childhood friendships as adults. The opportunity to enjoy booze is dying.

Gabe Newell would be a better administrator than Hegseth. This timeline is FUBAR. 😣

I hope to see most of this “court” on the gallows, live. They are traitors.

Thank you. This kind of information, while disappointing, is helpful, because architecture is inherently messy, expensive, and has to be thoughtfully planned.
