Energy cost is the 2nd biggest contributor to inflation.

The most insidious tax of all.

Well, I haven’t counted the numbers officially but I think those circles converge just a little bit more.

Always has been

Truth rings hard in this one.

Society labels attributes we celebrate with negativity for good reason.

If everyone actually wanted to be better, they would to put in effort and society in general can’t have that kind of disruption of the new better and still conserve the current structure of those in power at the moment.

So for the greater good of society continue to be mediocre.

Neither team red or team blue are progressive. They are both conservative of their own welfare not yours or mine.

The very reason raw democracy fails to find the best path forward in any place it is used.

This began with an asshole poking at an adversary it ended as a prophecy.

I haven’t seen the Harris polling numbers yet but something tells me team blue can’t even get behind that.

They may have a chance with a fresh selection from outside the cabal but things are not looking good.

My motivation is more about the desire for understanding rather than an “argument”

Avoiding some conversations for the desire for peace seems, to me, to be only a temporary peace. I would rather strive for a more sustainable peace

Interesting POV, now two people that missed an opportunity to see the other’s point of view and genuinely understand that they fundamentally want the same outcome but the mechanics of getting there are the true difference.

Even just agreeing to disagree is a more peaceful than not knowing or making pre-judgments about one another… that is how people get shot.

J. D. Vance appears to round out and balance the red team nicely, they might still have a chance. Especially given Harris looks to be the favored lead of the ticket on the blue team.

(not sure by who, even the blue team like her)

— damn I need more popcorn

The outcome has arrived, still waiting for the hot turd replacement.

Wonder what scent they will go with this time 🧐

Unless the subject is political or religious.

Then it is nonsense and other versions of nonsense.

Reminder: Conservatives are why we have liberals like this.

The tighter you squeeze the more things slip from your grasp.

When you get the chance to be the show runner of this shit show, remember your morality is not everyone’s. You don’t need them to be moral you need them to be compliant. And they won’t be compliant if you don’t stop pushing them to higher extremes.

Thirsty people are everywhere…

Only partially true… men do want strong intelligent women, to raise and nurture their children. Steel sharpens steel!

Independent self reliant entitled women regardless of education also are not likely to be truly looking for a man, nor would most men be looking for them.

Everyone has their place, made mostly of their own choices. Sometimes those choices turn into a dead end for some outcomes and allows for great success in others. That is the sacrifice made to be who, what, and where you are.

You can't go back and change the beginning but you can start where you are and change the ending.
