Thanks so much my friend! I don’t know why but I just really needed to get that out in writing for some reason, ya know? Exactly it’s gotten so extreme that in my experience even the people who vote against their own interest and feel they have more in common with billionaires than the homeless on the street are starting to feel the pinch and waking up and wondering what’s going on. Glad to hear your area isn’t as bad and I completely agree that there is no escaping this situation anywhere it’s just “a little less shitty, and a tad bit less exploitative than other places”. I totally agree that it’s going to be real bad if there isn’t change I just hope if it does come down to that we’ll see a drastic shift in the way America operates or it will all be for nothing and just a short reprieve before the machine starts to grind away at the general public once again.
They don’t you cannot rent a 1 bedroom apartment on minimum wage in most if not all of America G Z is getting ducked harder than millennials with no end in sight. If you can afford rent you can’t afford luxuries such as healthier foods or decent health care (which ends up costing more in the fire when things go wrong). The inequality of wealth disbursement is the in the US “In the first quarter of 2023, 69 percent of the total wealth in the United States was owned by the top 10 percent of earners. In comparison, the lowest 50 percent of earners only owned 2.4 percent of the total wealth.Jul 17, 2023”. I’m very ecstatic that unions are coming back with force and people are fighting back, but it won’t be won overnight and the 1% are going to kick and claw and fight anyways they can ( look at Amazon using the Pinkertons to union bust). I think things can change, but it’s going to take a massive push on voting for people who actually represent the people and holding our politicians to a higher standard than we are now. Changing legislation such as, putting a limit on campaign donations and having a public ledger of where and who the donations came from (see you matter dark money!), repealing citizens united, getting rid of corporate welfare, extending voting rights (making it a national holiday to force businesses to make sure there is time off for their workers to vote while being compensated, and making sure employers no longer have a say in your healthcare (through universal healthcare) and end the privatization of the whole system, fixing the unchecked police system here would go a long way to making sure that those protesting would not be killed or beaten for exercising their first amendment right and would help us get in the right track to help mitigate climate change instead of the misinformation factory that is the oil and gas industry not to mention the disinformation machine that is alt right driven hate speech (looking at you Fox News for giving a breeding ground for that shit for bowers and Rudolf Murdock that with his media empire has done more to fuck humanity over than anyone is history). I do believe in gen z helping to change things for the better, but they can’t do it alone and it seems like the generations before them have given into apathy and and frozen into inaction by just straight death session and despair about the future.
Just realized I went on a long ass rant, my bad and did not mean to word vomit on you O agree with everything you said . I’ll delete if it gets into the negatives.
!WetBeardHairs is spot on with it being a traditional Polish dish. I’m very unsure of the recipe, but I’ll happily postlude the location of the restaurant (Poland) if it doesn’t violate any rules and if it does and you are still interested message me and I’ll tell you there! (:
(Apparently I do not know how to tag a user in a post like I thought I did haha please feel free to point me in the right direction)😅
Man I want to believe our HUGE intelligence apparatus and community is all over this like flys on shit. Maybe it’s just a coincidence, but the CIA losing a shot ton of US informants the same time Trump was president seems a little to convenient The Hill article Before any of you ask if I read the article I did, and I am just reading in between the lines because I doubt the CIA will come out and say our president was compromised due to the confidence drop it would cause in current human intel assets and future ones as well.
Apologies for missing your question! It was a large latte. (very good)
Damn you’re totally right! Haha I guess google translate did an “oopsie” then menu going from Ukrainian to English (I’m still learning the language). Thank you for the correction 🙏🏾 😊
It was a very tasty breakfast (:
Just subscribed because of you. It’s nice to see a cal collected mix that actually explains things :)
Well like always the “hillbillies” are probably hand in hand with the insurrectionists.

Man that intercepted comma of them when they admit they got their asses handed to them was priceless. Slava Ukraini!
Hopefully people end up owning their likeness regardless if it’s a lengthy contract and are made to be paid fairly and compensated for streaming rights as well. I feel like we are approaching same time frame as non compete clauses becoming illegal in comparison to AI generated images/actors. They are already working to make their likeness illegal to be used for pornography. IMHO I think the actors and the writers s tricking together signifies a united front and could force change as long as the powers to be don’t bleed them out beforehand, but I’m hopeful with suck a strong backing social media wise and industry (the workers not the owners).
Is it wrong to assume that climate change has already done us in (the majority of us anyways), and we are now just catching up to how bad we really are screwed?
