Yeah I agree.

I was already doing this for fun before the 2024 election. It suddenly got more practical than I’d like. I originally started it to stock a small free pantry, and now it’s stocking my own.

It’s also why I’m expanding it, because I expect even worse times ahead. If you can, I’d start one, because it’s better to be safe than sorry.

I’m on an urban lot that’s like 1/7 an acre. I just get full sun on nearly all of it, except what’s shaded by the house. (More than 4/5ths of it). Part of the reason I planted the trees was to shade the house. It came with 0 trees, now there are 9.

Most of my neighbors couldn’t replicate this garden even if they wanted to because they don’t get nearly the same full sun coverage. An east west road deadends into my yard, leading me to get morning sun hours earlier than my neighbors, and they have mature trees shading most of thier lots.

But I’m also probably going without health insurance next year because premiums went up 300 a month, and I fully can’t afford that.

I’ve managed to mostly keep my grocery bill down by buying more raw ingredients to supplement my garden and making stuff at home in bulk.

But I doubt that will continue now that the garden is done. I’m still waiting on the Trump Famine to hit since he’s been constantly fucking up the agriculture sector. I’m not sure what the timing of it will be, but he seems to be intentionally trying to bring back the conditions described in the Grapes of Wrath.

In my yard I’ve planted 7 fruit trees and 8 berry bushes. And I’m building 200 Sq ft of raised beds, and another 400 sq ft of non raised bed garden. (Right now I have 100 sq ft) And I’m still planning arbors to grow Kiwi Berries and grapes. And I’m building a chicken coop today for 4 chickens. But all that probably won’t sustain my family for 3-5 years when the trees and bushes finally start hitting fuller production.

I’m still waiting on gas and electricity bills to go up. So far gas is staying steady and electricity has only gone up 10% compared to the 20+% I’m seeing reported other places.

Imagine he dies of Jaundice within days of his Pardon by Trump.

Nissan Rogues from 14-17 have an issue where if you plug in a key programming tool and run it, the on board computer will just brick. This includes the dealer tool, not just 3rd party tools.

There’s never been a recall for this issue.

That is reason enough to never buy a Nissan for me.

I’m in the same position.

That list of complaints also applies to the Trump regime. Get off your high horse made of horseshit and stop intentionally making peoples lives worse.

It’s pretty clear, that collectively, we don’t like AI. Getting down voted for violating a well established social norm seems pretty tame as far as consequences go.

I think it’s one thing to make fun of the Joseph Merrick, who has very little control over how he looks versus making fun of Kristi Noem who paid people to mutilate her for Trumps approval.

"Here’s Why This Is Bad

I dunno man, let’s start simple: $50 billion a quarter of data center funding is going into an industry that has less revenue than Genshin Impact. That feels pretty bad."

-My favorite quote from this blog post

I’m not sure what you’re talking about. But Honda, Toyota, Mazda, Kia, Hyundai, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Volvo, Volkswagon, and Mercedes keys are definitely made overseas.

And considering the price increases I’m seeing on Fiat (Jeep, Dodge, Chrystler) and Ford keys, I assume they are too. GM prices have risen the least, but they too are more expensive, probably because raw materials are being tarrifed.

No, the US company recieving the import pays the tarrif to the US government.

But yes, Trump is an idiot.

I’m a locksmith, I mostly program car keys for customers. Basically every car key is produced overseas.

How far does this refund go? My distributor paid the tarrifs and then passed that cost onto me, which I passed onto my customers.

Will my customers, distributors, or myself be refunded? I assume just my distributor since they directly paid the tarrif. And I doubt prices will come down when tarrifs end, so everything is permanently more expensive for no fucking reason, and the top middle man just boosted his profit margin through the roof.

Someone rang my doorbell at 11pm, better shoot first and ask questions never.

Noone could ever need help at 11pm.

Also, are they just posted up in a chair with a rifle pointed at the door ready to fire when the doorbell goes off? Or did they open the door and identify the person running away before firing.

The whole point of the prank is to run away before they can awnser the door.

Are we sure this isn’t a video google “enhanced with ai”.

It’s not likely, considering he’s got enough money to be a problem for them, but it would tie into thier plan to make everything look like slop so you can no longer tell what is slop.

Based on my reading of the article, its entirely possible this man was not out for an affair.

He was wanting to meet before the bot got very flirty, and pumped the brakes about the idea of getting physical.

Do I think he was making good decisions? No.

But I think we should give a little benefit of the doubt to a dead man, who had his mental capacity demished by a stroke, who was trying to meet a chatbot, owned and operated by Meta.

I normally heard about cats being called Roof Rabbit. I figured it would be groundhog, opossum, or skunk.

Exactly what I was thinking of

I can’t wait until his ICE raids lead to widespread famine and we call joke about eating our Trump Steaks.
