Are we calling them "self-made" now for strapping some http requests to old, purposefully gate-kept banking systems? Or is it the ones that we allowed to horizontally expand with zero regulatory system to stop them? Or is it the o

I'm currently recovering from a grief, depression, intimate partner violence, State abuse, and whatever-the-hell-is-in-nationwide-legal-psuedo-cannabis-vapes based psychosis. Long story short: I sacrificed my physical, mental, emotiona

Interesting that those geopolitical events, namely the gas-as-economic-subtrate in alleged peril, took place at the exact time conservatism came swooping to the rescue. Almost like US conservative oil tycoons were colluding with foreign nat
