I was being hyperbolic and trying to think of the worst Democrat possible to put up, so I really highly doubt they would actually run her, but really, you just never fucking know these days, nothing would shock me. They could run Don Jr. at this point and I’d be like “yeah, sounds about fucking right” while bashing my head into my desk.

That’s what ours was too, the kind that goes into water coolers but it was plastic, not glass. It still exploded when I dropped it though LOL

It’s almost like we’ve been through this all before.

Well color me shocked as shit!

Do they ever learn from any fuck up? No. Our next nominee is probably going to be Nancy Pelosi because we all know how much everyone loves her, and she’s the perfect age to run.

Thankfully chicken is still low for me (used to be .69 cents a lb on sale, now .99) but holy hell, ground beef is like unobtainable anymore. They want nearly $6 a lb for the 70% ground beef and I just can’t ever justify it. We’ve mainly just been living on chicken, and pork when there are good sales, but yeah lots of meatless meals.

Electricity has been noticeably going up for me as well and its quite honestly insane. I live in a single-wide trailer with 1 other adult, we’re not running heat or AC right now because its spring, we have been actively trying to conserve energy because of how high the bills are so we’re making sure to turn stuff off, I unplugged my deep freezer and consolidated to just the fridge, I only do full loads of laundry, with cold water, etc. My electric bill is still over $300!

I feel like we’re living like cavemen and we’re still somehow using $3000+ of electric, I don’t get it.

Fun memory I just had: My dad was a penny picker and would empty his pockets at the end of the day into one of those blue 5-gallon water jugs that he kept right at the front door by the stairs. One time when it was full, I was trying to be slick and take a lil, and knocked the jug down the stairs where it broke and pennies cascaded down them like a waterfall of copper. Dad was pissed at first but then found it funny. Whats even more funny, is that we didn’t clean it up for months, we just had penny stairs, and I swear he would come home and just throw his new pennies right on the stairs. He probably would have kept it that way forever but I cleaned it up as a surprise while he was gone one day.

Every time lately, I gotta check and make sure it’s satire.

We get the worst of both worlds here, we pay for our data to be taken so they can sell it. If they’re going to sell my data either way, I would prefer it to be free to use the internet at least.

I don’t blame them; the rest of the world should do the same. Don’t come here, it’s not safe for you.

They only care about wasteful spending when it comes to things like feeding poor children and giving people the medications they need to survive. Throwing millions down the drain so 32 people can suffer is A-Ok to MAGA, it’s what they voted for.

We should go back to doing it, physical media is where it’s at.

As someone with addict parents, PBS quite literally raised me. Like it was one of the only things I could watch for free that wasn’t daytime talk shows, had it not been for PBS I’d have been raised by Jerry Springer and Maury, and I imagine that some kids were.

Exactly, thank you.

Do you like to see how things work? I took my laptop apart once to replace the screen and it gave me so much anxiety, I was scared I wouldn’t be able to put it back together again, but I did! It wasn’t that hard.

One of my favorite things about this time of year is that I can finally sit outside with my laptop and work in my garden while watching the birds. Lots of times, deer will come around too if I am being quiet and still.

Doesn’t Congress eventually have to pass it though?

I feel you! I am in PA and it was 85 degrees the other day. Hello we are in the NORTH why am I sweating in April?! There used to be surprise snowstorms in April around these parts.

I am so sorry! Last year I lost my cat and not only was he my first cat that I had for 14 years, but also the first pet I’ve ever lost. He died on 9/11 (because he’s a drama queen) and I truly wasn’t ready for it. I still miss him every day and I still cry when I think/talk about him.

My Mickey Mouse was the most perfect cat in the world; he never once hissed at me or scratched me, not even during the rare times he needed a bath. He loved my dogs and was friends with everyone he met. He never pottied or sprayed, he never scratched my furniture. He was purfict in every single way. I know in my soul that I will never find another one like him.

I’m very sorry for your loss. Its really not fair that we only get them for such a short amount of time.
