Reminder: you probably have a person in your life who is carrying a long term resentment towards you and will betray you at your lowest.

Do your best to figure out who that is now.

The government of the Boomers formative years betrayed the Millennials. The Boomers benefited from it at our expense, but I doubt the majority of them had any idea what was going on.

I have said the top of this cycle is going to be between 215-255 most likely.

Low estimate is 155K

High estimate is 275K

What say you? I'd do a poll but we don't have pollstr yet far as I know. 🤷

The year isn’t quite over yet, but it was a great year on bikes. This doesn’t even count all the hours I’ve spent on my dirt jumper and trials bike. Also no injuries this year which is always a plus. 😁

Ever fuck up your coffee because you haven't had your coffee yet?

This morning while operating in the dark on autopilot I out the coffee mug in the machine... upside down. What a mess.

Gn nostr. I find myself at the end of a financial year at the fiat mine. I've worked pretty damn hard over the last two years, and really don't have much to show for it, above what I would have if I worked much less. I'm thinking my goal for the next FY will be try and work a lot less. Not sure how much I even care if they fire me; they definitely haven't done much to encourage me to stay. The only reason I'm still here is because they sign the paychecks twice a month, and that keeps my stack from shrinking.

Might just be time for a new approach.

*intro to ‘Slow Ride’ begins in the background*

Really close to pulling the plug on facebook. I've only been using Messengerfor the last couple years,and occasiknally Marketplace.

The hard things to give up are these:

-communication with my my wife. Her primary communication medium (even voice calls) is Facebook. But I will do it anyway. Her brother did, and that turned out ok, and they talk daily.

-motorcycle riding group. They use a FB chat to coordinate pretty much everything. Which is a horrible practice, but maybe me not being on FB will get them to find other solutions. Simplex? Signal? They are not technical at all, for the most part. Not sure they would even install another app. I don't want to install another app either.

- Marketplace. Where I am, there is a lot that happens here. I'm looking for a truck. Even the 1/2 beef I just bought was mostly my wife, communicating over FB. I chose a rancher that wasn't really using marketplace, but still is handling all his orders over a facebook page. I'll probably just delegate all marketplace activity to my wife.

So how this is looking, I'm probably not getting a truck until mid to late October. I figure I need Marketplace to at least view recommendations my wife finds (she insists on being the finder of all cars, although I'd rather she stay out of it). FB might come in handy during my motorcycle trip in early/mid October. This also gives me a chance to warn my MC guys that I'm going dark. Looks like I may be out of Meta (never really had an insta or threads or anything, although who knows how much of my profile is shared to those) by the end of October.

That will leave me with nostr, and a fairly inactive presence on LinkedIn, which is still needed I think. I may be switching fiat mines in the next months, years, whatever, and that has been my best resource to find a new fiat mine.

Cheers fuckers - like me or not, I'm fucking here, even if I'm nit, until I'm gone!

Good Morning! 😎 ☕ To the Moon! 🚀🚀🚀

There are 13 deaths by gun a year per 100K citizens in the US vs 2 in the rest of the OECD countries.

I don't use FB anymore and it won't let me see his stuff without logging in. Do you have a website for him?

I need to get a rifle barrel threaded anyone on here have recommendations preferably in the SE

Oh and NOW it's heavily raining. I'm quite happy that I did my cycling before lunch
