My portfolio improved quite a bit from April to May. I still despise Trump and ALL of his supporters.

MAGA is proud of their stupidity. They are claiming that their stupidity was validated by the election. There's no dealing with that. Hence, there's literally zero hope of adverting a disaster. I'm staying away from people and the news.

I'm starting to not do the surveys. There is a fair bit of evidence to support that the businesses don't care about keeping me a happy customer; that they just want to see how to lure new customers.

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

Here is the oath all executive branch employees take. It is to support and defend the Constitution, not to “implement the president’s agenda.” If the two purposes diverge, the Constitution prevails.

In fairness to JD Vance, he's not wrong that Canada has seen massive increases in the trafficking of fentanyl across its border.
He's just a bit confused about the direction it is flowing.
The US ships 22 TIMES the fentanyl to Canada that Canada ships to the US. And Canada is a smaller market.

Yes, making Trump unimportant means making America unimportant to the world.

The tech giant claims they removed several events from Google Calendar because maintaining their presence wasn't "sustainable"—but critics are crying foul.

Democratic politicians are complaining about the phone calls and protests by their constituents. This shows me a couple of things. 1) the Democrat politicians are very much a part of the problem, and 2) your phone calls and protests are doing more than I originally thought (keep it up!)

I could do classes on how to spot cryptogrifters, but I know that the majority of attendees would be cryptogrifters. If I were like them, I would take their money. But I am not at all like them.

While Musk runs the country, Trump had a productive weekend naming himself Chair of the Kennedy Center, picking the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl, canceling pennies, demanding Google Maps rename Gulf of Mexico, invited only White immigrants from Africa, and saved plastic straws.

For the record (and this will piss a lot of folks on here off), I don't think anyone with a Y chromosome should compete in women's sports. I do not care what people wear, who/what they have sex with, what their preferred pronouns are, but I draw the line in sports. Fairness goes both directions.

I hate grifters. Which apparently means that I hate half the population. (and, yes, I am the odd liberal who has hate and is comfortable with it).
