@LarryJones I have heard about it a dozen times and forgotten a dozen times. My brain won’t remember!

SERIOUS QUESTION: Are any of you worried about the hantavirus?

@vegastarr Sonic style!

They Told You Reality Is Solid. It’s Not. But That Doesn’t Mean You Can Teleport.✨ It Means Your Mind Is Rendering The Experience Not The World Itself. 👁️🧠

@DocBrownLloyd 88!! I will be 44 this year.

I told you when this baby hits 88…you’re gonna see some serious shit. A lifetime of stories. Coming soon.

@MZygodactyl01 @FinancialPhys How interesting! I have never considered the AC to be a factor, but i can see how it makes good sense. I will keep this in mind this summer. Thank you!

You have made some very good points. I think you are off a bit on the topic of hot looking young people then vs now though, even percentage wise. Healthier food + greater strenuous effort + lack of A/C = greater physical condition. Real home cooked food was the everyday norm. Nearly all young people had to buy older cars which oftentimes had manual steering, brakes, transmissions, and lacked A/C. I invite you to borrow an old 1960s full sized pick-up truck fitting that decription for a week in August. Do some parallel parking along with regular parking in a large town with stop and go traffic having hilly roads. If a woman with long hair is your passenger, she will want both windows to be mostly cranked up so that the wind won't mess her hair up. There wasn't very many elevators back then either, so take the stairway instead even if you have to make multiple trips for groceries. Not many people had A/Cs in their houses either, so shut yours off and use window fans and/or oscalating fans. Your body will naturally climatize to the seasonal temperature until it gets too cold. You will notice by the end of the week that you are getting stronger. Do that all summer long and you will lose weight.

How many judges do you think have raped and eaten a baby?

@james_xond If it was the older kind and not some space age type stuff!

Trying to prove a point: Could you jump into a stick-shift car and drive it without a problem right now?

@maxl1am What are people eating instead? Honestly cooking 3 meals a day is exhausting. I’m a dish pan hands and no name brands type of girl!

my mom was really serving us home cooked meals every single day…… younger me didn’t realize how much work and how much of a blessing that is

Grok will never go to therapy. Never.

@FinancialPhys I don’t think I planted enough carrots for this.

Americans: we want mass deportations, spending cuts, end visas, stop data centers, fix our economy… 🍊trump: end a civilization half way around the world, spike gas prices, flood the US with “legals”, amnesty, anchor babies, make everyone a citizen if they steal a wallet

@FinancialPhys It feels good to be out of debt.

they are printing USD from nothing and using it to “buy” up assets and inflate prices in USD —this is called counterfeiting It’s all fake it’s being done so prices don’t drop to where average Americans can then pay cash for assets that WITHOUT DEBT Yes, it’s just that simple

@JeanneBauer669 @nic_carter I was thinking that too… my grandparents, all of my aunts and uncles have needed care in their later years. My parents will need care…. if you don’t have wealth the situation becomes quite the issue.

OK, but I agree with you but you do realize that some old people do need help and they’d rather have a family member help them that are stranger and have you seen some of the strangers that do this work not so good so I mean we just have to remember not all fraud but there’s a lot of of it. I agree with you a lot of of it. Just wanna remind you that that’s all.

it hasn't sunk in for most people. we already live in a post-scarcity society. UBI is already here. basic package: disability, medicaid, food stamps etc bonus package: literally getting paid for staying at home and hanging out with your relatives extra bonus: if you are willing to commit fraud, pretend your kids are autistic and get paid for that. get paid for watching your neighbor's kid. pretend you are taking care of your grandma. fake hospice clinic. fake rehab clinic. fake therapy clinic. giga bonus: during a time of crisis take advantage of PPP or CARES and open a fake business and get paid for existing people are shocked when they learn that defense is the FIFTH largest line item in the budget. ahead of defense: social security ($1.6T), interest on debt ($1.1T) medicare ($1T), medicaid + ACA ($1T), AND THEN defense ($0.9T) complain about defense all you like, but healthcare fraud is a way bigger factor. hundreds of billions per year. this is only going to get worse, because the fraud is a structural part of the system – payouts to client groups in exchange for votes (normally D). in the US, only 47% of the population actually works (fully 14% of the population is working age and does not work). retirees are 18% and children 22%. the system I described above subsidizes 50m non-working people absolute minimum, but really it's far more because people that are paid to stay home and take care of their relatives are considered "workers" of that 47% of "actual workers" maybe one third does real work, the rest are shuffling papers around or doing fake email jobs. so you have, rough math, 50 million actual workers supporting 300 million dependents. that's the nature of the economy today. it will only accelerate. eventually you will have 10 million using AI tools to do all the work and 340 million dependents. the reason no one roots out the fraud is because it's the system that keeps our extremely fragile polity intact. the fraud is the UBI. the purpose of the system is what it does. of course, it's a deeply unfair system, because you are allowed to commit fraud if you are a politically protected client group of the democrats. DOGE was killed faster than any government program ever, because it attempted to root out the fraud. if you are honest and unwilling to commit fraud, you are a huge loser in this system. your neighbor will have their mortgage subsidized by some government program. they will get favorable SBA loans due to DEI. they will open a fake hospice or autism clinic. they will get paid for taking care of their neighbor's kid and vice versa. the primary skill in the labor market is learning how to extract money from state and federal government programs, not gaining skills or making yourself employable. if you are just trying to work an ordinary wagie job you are a huge sucker. you are paying 40-50% effective all in taxes to everyone else who is a net taker. the sad part is because AI is such a substantial productivity boost, it will actually keep this system going for a while longer, and maybe in perpetuity. AI boosts the 15% of the population that is actually productive so much that the remaining 85% can coast by. no one in charge will change this because they can't think of anything else. the political costs of a real UBI program are too great and we don't have the money for it anyway. so we will keep this covert fraud-based UBI program running indefinitely. unfortunately, if you are an honest wagie, you lose.

@washghost1 Looks like a meat market…. just like it always has.

I’m convinced if average Americans had a reasonable house on 2 acres to maintain, there’d be virtually zero obesity
