I offer no info because ex and stuff. Liberty, health, and music (good music) are all I care about.

@Rainmaker1973 We raised a day old wood duck and to keep it from getting lonely we got baby chicks. They all tried to swim with it 😂🤣. The duck knew it was a duck though.
Man, that duck hung out with them for two years before venturing off to find a lady duck.

@newbloodrecords @philthatremains My dad and I used to rock out to this song in my car like 20 years ago 😂
He was in his 50’s and I thought he was old then. He’s gone now. One of my fond memories.

We save outrageous claims for April 1st. Mind the other BS out there.
But we do have a new flavor coming soon.
Same no-BS formulation.
No magic bullets or overreaching claims.
Just salt.
Stay tuned 👀
P.S. To our community and partners, thanks for the salty fun.

🚨1993 | Dianne Feinstein: "Should people be able to come to this country, get on Medicaid, give birth to a baby, and then go back to their home country? The answer is no."
English
@rrockman @krzysztofwos @elonmusk Yeah. We as a country are wealthy but the poor are literally being subsidized for their kids. So they’re not poor. They just don’t have income.
English
@krzysztofwos @elonmusk Really? So all the poor people making kids like crazy are what to you?
English
@krzysztofwos @elonmusk We ARE wealthy. It’s just that all of our money is taken from us via taxes or inflation. Mainly inflation. And our medical system is corrupt.
So this is still true.
English
@elonmusk Retarded take. There are lies, bigger lies, and statistics.
The average income hides the fact that most people are priced out of having children.

Since the HOA post went viral I've had a lot of people ask me what I actually think about HOAs
So I did what I do
I ran the numbers
There are 373,000 HOAs in the United States
77 million Americans live in one
That's 1 in 4 people
Collectively they pay $106 billion a year in assessments
$106 billion
That's more than the GDP of over 100 countries
For an organization run by your neighbor who hasn't mowed his lawn
The average HOA fee is $243 a month
That's $2,916 a year
For a household earning the median income of $80,000 that's 3.6% of gross income
Going to an organization with no earnings report, no audited financials, and no fiduciary duty in most states
If this were a company it would never survive diligence
Here's why
The board of directors is unpaid
They're volunteers
97.6 million hours of volunteer labor annually
Valued at $2.9 billion
So the people making the rules, setting the budgets, and enforcing fines on your trash can are doing it for free
In private equity we would never invest in a company where the entire leadership team works for nothing
Because when people aren't paid they aren't accountable
And when they aren't accountable they fine you $50 for 11 minutes of trash can visibility while their Christmas lights have been up for 97 days
70% of HOAs are underfunded on reserves by 70% or more
That means the money you pay every month isn't being saved for future repairs
It's being spent
On what
60-70% of HOAs hire third-party management companies
These companies collect your dues, manage your vendors, and enforce your rules
For a fee
Off the top
Before a single dollar goes to the landscaper or the reserve fund
So your $243 a month goes to a management company that hires a vendor that hires a landscaper that mows the common area you could mow yourself
That's not a value chain
That's a fee chain
And landscaping alone can eat up to 50% of the operating budget
For grass
71% of HOAs plan to raise fees this year
71% of those plan to raise them up to 10%
So the cost goes up every year
The reserves stay underfunded
The board stays unpaid
The bylaws stay unread
And you get a letter in an envelope with a stamp in 2026 because your trash can was visible for 11 minutes
If someone brought me this deal I'd pass in the first meeting
No audited financials
No professional management required by law in most states
No fiduciary standard
Unpaid leadership
70% underfunded reserves
Rising costs with no margin improvement
And a customer base that can't leave without selling their house
That last part is the only reason it works
You can't cancel your HOA membership
You can cancel a gym membership
You can cancel a home warranty
You can cancel a streaming service
But you cannot cancel the organization that fines you for your trash can
The only exit is selling your home
In PE we call that a captive customer base
It's the only business model where the product gets worse, the price goes up, and the customer can't leave
And the board enforcing the rules hasn't read them

Got a letter from the HOA yesterday Actual letter In an envelope With a stamp In 2026 The letter said my trash can was visible from the street for too long on collection day The fine is $50 I checked my Ring camera The truck came at 7:03am I brought the can in at 7:14am 11 minutes $50 That's $4.55 per minute of trash can visibility My therapist charges $250 an hour That's $4.17 per minute My trash can sitting in a driveway is now more expensive per minute than therapy I looked at the letter again It was signed by the HOA president Her name is Karen Of course it is I know this woman She lives four houses down She still has Christmas lights up It's March I know because I drive past them twice a day And because that's what I do I checked the HOA bylaws All 47 pages Section 4.2 says all exterior fixtures and lighting must be seasonal and removed within 30 days of the applicable holiday Her lights have been up for 97 days I went to the HOA meeting Tuesday night 7pm In a church basement Folding chairs Fruit platter that nobody touched Seven people showed up Four of them were on the board The other three were there to complain I was there to read My wife came with me She didn't want to But she said "if I don't come you'll end up on the news" I brought my legal pad Karen called the meeting to order She talked about community standards She talked about property values She talked about the importance of curb appeal From a woman whose Christmas lights are still blinking in March I raised my hand She said "we'll take questions at the end" I said "it's not a question. It's a point of order." She looked at me I opened my legal pad I said "Section 4.2 requires seasonal decorations to be removed within 30 days. Your Christmas lights have been up for 97 days. You fined me $50 for 11 minutes of trash can visibility on collection day while you've been in violation for over three months." The room was quiet One of the other three complainers said "he's right" The board members looked at each other Karen said "that's a separate issue" I said "it's the same bylaws" She said "we'll review it" I said "I already did. Page 12. Happy to share my highlights." My wife looked at the ceiling Some things never change Karen said "I think we should move on" I said "agreed. I'll move on when the Christmas lights do." Nobody laughed I wasn't joking I paid the $50 Because it's $50 and I'm not going to die on that hill But if the rules apply to me they apply to everyone So I filed a formal complaint about the lights With photos Timestamped Funny how surveillance works both ways The fine for seasonal decoration violations is $75 per occurrence She's been in violation for 67 days past the 30-day grace period I'll let her do the math Or I'll do it for her Because that's what I do Make common sense common again Plz fix.

For 80 years, the political landscape of the developed world has been defined by WW2.
Modern postwar liberalism became a sort of dark inverted religion, a religion not built around a god, but a devil. I call this religion "inverse fascism".
Inverse fascism has no plans, no vision, and no systematic understanding of the world. It just asks itself "What would Hitler do?", then does the opposite, and congratulates itself for being righteous.
Not only that, inverse fascism doesn't even understand who the fascists were, and what exactly they believed. It only sees the Axis powers as Saturday morning cartoon villains, comically evil antagonists in a half-hour show for kids.
That's no way to run a world.
You can't let infinity third world immigrants into developed countries just because Hitler wouldn't.
You can't hug and forgive violent criminals over and over again as they hurt innocent people, just because Hitler wouldn't.
You can't allow addicts and derelicts to camp on the streets of your cities, shooting up heroin, just because Hitler wouldn't.
You can't pressure all your female population into in the workforce and career-building in their early 20s, discouraging them from having babies, just because Hitler wouldn't.
You can't dismantle your unique culture, and destroy the racial composition of your society, just because Hitler wouldn't.
To do everything you do just because Hitler wouldn't is to allow Hitler, or your notion of Hitler, to define you.
Today, I saw a Japanese person making a joke about the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
A few days ago, I heard the President of the United States make a joke about the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Perhaps in the days to come, we can hope to hear a Chinese man make a joke about Unit 731. To hear a German make a joke about the firebombing of Dresden. To hear an Israeli make a joke about the holocaust.
Perhaps the world is starting to heal. Perhaps we are no longer allowing our worst moments to define us.
Perhaps we don't need to scold ourselves about the wars of our ancestors. Or to blind ourselves to our virtues out of fear of repeating their sins.
Perhaps we can create a new political ideology, based not on asking what Hitler would not do, but on asking what helps us colonize the stars.

@bennyjohnson If it’s a government agency, government officials get no special treatment. They experience their agencies as-is.
They need to be on the “affordable” care act too.
