As winter comes on, I wanted to share that I make water proof mezuzahs. I designed them for rainy environments and chose materials to last years.

This has been crystal clear since The Jan 6 when Trump incited a mob to attempt to overturn the election via murder and rape or elected-
And Dems waffled.
Trump should have been in chains on the 8th. Indicted. Tried. Convicted. And stuck in the fed pen.

Schumer said the Dems will "keep fighting". Keep fighting their own voters? Keep fighting off effectiveness? Keep fighting being held accountable for anything? As far as I can tell the Democratic leadership is good at one thing only now, which is sending fundraising messages to my phone.

And this is a hardship *no one volunteered to take on*. People aren't making sacrifices, they're *being* sacrificed. And ending that hardship, separate from any other conditions or caveats, is itself a moral good.

This point really upsets some folks, but it is true. Folks wonder why there's so much DLC, microtransactions and stuff and the answer is that at a $70 price point, inflation adjusted, games cost 75% of what they did in 2000 when it was typically $50.

AAA video games should cost $100 on launch. this would still be extremely cheap for the amount of time and enjoyment you get out of them! But an audience of whiny babies has kept them literally at the same price for *two decades* despite both general inflation *and* sector-specific costs rising

AI has absolutely replaced the low cost oDesk contractors I used to hire. It works far more reliably and has a higher quality.
Now, you say, maybe I should try hiring someone at full wages.

I'm going to guess most people hating on it from the left have never received a hospital bill the size of book; I put the apple there for scale.
That's the $1.3 million bill my kid incurred in his first ~94 days. Why does that make me respect the ACA?
