Old news. The report came out early on when the protocol was implemented. Nobody cared just like many other unscientific measures like ok to play college and pro sportsball but not any level below collegiate. Ok to have live TV skits with n

I visited the National Bowling Museum near Dallas as a spontaneous joke with some friends. Impressive museum for bowling. My favorite part was an animatronic pin boy talking about how he was making a lot of money setting pins and was moving

Much sympathy. My spouse had a 401K with a portion of it in "Mediterranean assets". She got a letter saying those were Russian assets in reality. All gone, sorry. It however worked out better by default. She was so infuriated she

Heartbreaking waiting for this release and even more heartbreaking playing it. After 15 minutes I had seen enough.

Almost nobody had cable TV in the early 80's. I grew up during this period but believe what you want. Cable TV was barely off the ground. HBO, Showtime, Cinemax, but outside of that it was nothing. No reach. Fast forward to the 90'

I will personally give you context. Nobody in my neighborhood is doing solar panels. Why? Because we don't want that on our roof. It looks like shit ok. It ruins the look of the house. We have enough coin to not do it and waste as much

Do high dollar people have solar panels on their roof? NO. They do not. It looks like s**. They do not do this. You might find a few but solar is a sign of financial weakness. Take Obama with his propane tanks. Do you see solar on his house

Futile effort. AC units draw an enormous amount of power. The only thing that might help is drying clothes outside since dryers also pack a serious draw. Now who is with me!

Instead of making office furniture modular it needs to be the actual buildings. I recall seeing an early form of it in Hong Kong in the early 90's where one building was put together almost like legos (minus the bamboo scaffolding).

I grew up in a time when David Duke was allowed to speak on campuses. He is still a joke just like he was then. You are deluded being there was no major media platforms back then. Major media platforms didn't exist outside of antenna T

I've never used FB or Meta. I do find Elon's comments on free speech on target. We will find out together where this goes I guess. I personally like free speech and I mean all of it. Hatred, spite, honesty, truth, humility...all o

It can be done without a time machine or pretty close to it. Get a TV antenna, channel scan and delete all channels except MeTV stations and a couple other classic stations. Cancel all social media, streaming services and no cell phone. Onl

How are they being persecuted? Maybe in the other 74 countries or so in the world with laws against their lifestyles but in the US it's impossible to escape their lifestyles with rainbow flags everywhere, pride parades, pride marketing

US "poverty" doesn't look anything like global poverty. How many of that 14% in TX have access to a flushing toilet, clean water, food, shelter and a smartphone. Take all those people out of that 14% and willing to bet it
