A leveraged buyout from a private equity firm was likely what happened. Typical MO of a bloodsucking PE firm. They acquire a business on the basis they take a massive loan as part of the buyout, continue to further bleed the business dry by cutting both expenditures and employees, meanwhile, the quality of everything goes down while the debt continues to accumulate to the point the business is unable to service the debt and goes bankrupt. The PE firm makes a killing out of the deal though with no accountability for their actions.
The same playbook was done to Sears, Toys R Us, the majority of restaurant chains, hell they even pillage small businesses and healthcare now. People gravely underestimate how much of a scam the entire finance industry really is...especially private equity. They are the epitome of everything I despise about the fiat world. A high-time preference mentality always prioritizing short-term profits over the long-term sustainability of the business and employee welfare.
As far as Recaro goes, it would be great if VW, BMW, or MB were to acquire them and help keep them afloat. Too bad the car modification scene is dead compared to what it used to be like in the past. The disappearance of new sports cars or just driver-oriented vehicles in general hasn't helped matters at all either.

Keep in mind Hugo Chavez implemented several measures to restrict firearms in Venezuela. So only criminals and government can have guns there; while the law-abiding folk have pots, pans and rocks for defense.

What's going on in Venezuela is a harbinger of things to come in the US regardless of who "wins" on November.

I think I finally have the issue with my Linux computer fixed. It really feels good to finally have my complete CPU setup up and running again; especially considering how it frustrated me how I couldn't come up with a solution to the problem. It got to the point where I said screw this, decided to unplug it, and completely ignored it for a while just to clear my mind of all of it. It was better to focus my attention on other things and revisit it at another time when I'm in a more zen-like state.
Now I have a bunch of months old tabs and tweets to eventually sift through. I don't know if it's even worthwhile to post them or not. Either way, I very much prefer to browse/use nostr on a large screen with a keyboard & mouse. Mobile apps just don't really do it for me. Unless I'm multi-tasking or out and about, traveling, and have the rare opportunity to kill time.
I've been expecting 2024 to be like this. Even to the point of attempting to digitally detox for this eventuality. This year has already exceeded my expectations despite myself already expecting 2024 to be a doozy.
Unfortunately, despite preparing for this, it's becoming a real PITA to try and stay up to date on global happenings. Especially when one follows many different subjects...it can feel like a full-time job in of itself while also trying to live my life.
All good. As a general tea enjoyer, I'm really thankful for the new tea suggestion and the newfound knowledge that it could've helped with what was ailing me. I'm definitely going to look into this.
Whenever you get your zappping setup squared away, DM me and I'll be your 1st zap.
Tropical cyclone season is already upon us.

I definitely would have done the same if I were a teacher.
That's great to know thanks. This is a zap worthy post imo, but unfortunately, I'm having issues with the computer I have my zaps set up on so I need to find a workaround this dilemma. So bare with me and I'll make it worth your while.
That doesn't help lol. I guess that's one of the downsides of being a jack of many trades. The more shit you know the more you have to stay up to date on, the more time it takes to do research. It's quite a interesting to me conundrum I've put myself on lol
Damn...short, sweet and right to the point. A textbook example of that old adage brevity is the soul of wit. It's rather unfortunate that between the failure of feminism and the future effects that will be felt from the vaxx that (until I see enough evidence otherwise) I have to consider the possibility that human extinction is a possibility if this species doesn't get its collective shit together.
Where do you get the free time? That's the one thing that's lacking in my life rn
Even back when I was in high school, I instinctually knew I'd have to treat them with kid gloves. This is the modern female without the proper masculine guidance.
Ever since I quit mining for fiat and trying to stack btc like my life depended on it going back to 2015, I hardly ever got sick. At worst, I'd just get the snuffles for a day or two. Just by drinking my tea concoction below and increasing the dosage on my supplements, I'd usually be back to 100% health quickly.
But whatever it was I caught a couple of weeks ago, likely from the gym, really KTFO of me. It was the worst I've felt since back when I was a nocoiner when Bitcoin was not even a dollar. But the usual routine that I go through from my own research over the years made it go by alright despite the fact I couldn't get any real sleep for 5 days. So I'll share with you what I take if I ever start to get sick.
Take the following supplements even when healthy:
Zinc
Vitamin C/D/K2 (K helps absorb both C and D)
Magnesium
Selenium
When you start to feel like you're coming down with the cold:
Elderberry syrup (21000000x better tasting than cough syrup)
Echinacea
Wash both your hands and face.
Hydration is a MUST. Be sure to consistently be drinking water and every several hours and Chamomile tea - pour and stir some organic honey and garnish with a slice of lemon if you so desire.
Optional:
Zicam RapidMelts
Neil Med Sinus Rinse (if afflicted with nasal congestion)
gargle with salt water
For ear infections, inflammation, or pain, instead of trying to get a script for Amoxicillin or Azithromycin, just go the natural way and use ear drops that have Garlic and Mullein Oil in them. The image is what I personally used. All of the ingredients are legit.
Of course, do your own research. But this is my basic routine that I adhere to from my own research, which has helped me essentially never truly feel sick.
On a future note, I'll share with y'all my personal home remedies I've been using to basically never get sick or greatly reduce the duration and severity of the common cold/flu. All of it can be bought otc, no prescriptions nor vax needed.
I decided to break the fast today so I can take my supplements. I'd rather not take an increased dosage of supplements on an empty stomach. At least I'm almost back to full health.
It's annoying how every time I've fasted this year has resulted in me not getting any sleep. So there's another reason why I ended it. I'm outright exhausted of sleep deprivation. 😴
S₿ is currently fasting. Going on day 2 now despite fighting a 102° fever which, thankfully, due to having a functioning immune system, have been able to get the fever down to 99.4° today.
I understand your viewpoint, but fuck that guy and his brother Andrew. Those two deserve no mercy. Demons like them deserve disdain and derision not compassion.

Good! Got what he deserved for pushing people to take the 💉

Yeah it's possible that it died 50 ft or so from where it hatched so I figured I'd bury it nearby the nest.
I really felt that magic tonight when I just outright bypassed tonight's 2000+ sat TX fee fuckery with a lightning txn that confirmed almost immediately.
