It hasn’t even been a full quarter but I try not to micromanage at all, I went with what my mom’s guy suggested.

“greater fool” theory. Just gotta get out and leave someone else holding the bag. Easy to see with crypto rugpulls.

I offshored about half of my holdings, maybe Europe won’t go down with the ship.

Planner wasn’t happy the money left her firm but I got a real, “I get it” vibe. It did cost me some value in fees but I managed to do it right before I hurt my back and can’t work so what’s done is done.

I can’t get these people to use Signal instead of SMS.

But nothing internet dependent will turn a phone into a radio. We are in places where even 4G doesn’t reach sometimes and if there was a Motorola repeater onsite it’d be great. I’ve got our company trying it out and the SL300 has been a game changer for our communication on site.

Money, I think. Motorola radio communication isn’t very cheap.

Yeah, I can’t speak a lick of Spanish although I’m starting to understand it a little. Translation apps are a life saver.

edit: oh, wait: VAMOS A LA CANTINA!

Construction workers, for sure. I miss PTT from NEXTEL (Motorola radio built into the phone) that shit was awesome.

I’d buy that for a dollar. Just don’t forget that we are people, and not all of us agree with what the government does.

ok fair enough. I calmed down in the meantime but damn if that didn’t rankle me.

Thanks for your actual considered comment.

Fair enough.

Oh, so in the FBI not the general population.

I guess I don’t have a functioning brain because I didn’t interpolate you talking about the FBI.

You said THERE IS NO ONE WITH A FUNCTIONING BRAIN

NO. ONE.

how is this so hard to understand?

That is an insane interpretation. I couldn’t square the “trans ideology” with what they then reported about what was found on the casings. Now you’ve explained it.

There is no one with a functioning brain left there.

Yeah, gonna have to take exception with that statement, pardner.

What else should I do? Some people online think I need to rise up and overthrow my government which, although impossible, sounds like a romantic thing to do. But I’m still here, still voting and still out in the street when a protest gets called.

If I put all of the citizens in one basket? Yes, that’s what I’m doing. If I specify a subset before I go off on some unhinged rant? No.

I did not know that

I wouldn’t be at all surprised to find out the suspect’s politics either leaned left or went hard left. Just because a family is shitty doesn’t mean everyone in the family is shitty.

Wish he hadn’t allegedly shot Kirk, but hey, everyone has a breaking point.

I use an extension for FF called “Web Archives” and it allows me to just right click a link to get to the popular archive sites. Usually archive.is works but for some sites some of the more obscure ones will do it.

oof, I’m not even going there. I don’t think I could deal with that comment section.
