fuck the times

Yeah. I'm self employed and some of my income comes from a contract with a religious nonprofit. My wife has three jobs and one of them is for a nonprofit. We have complicatons from certain expenses too, even though we don't itemize we still end up with a number of extra forms to fill out.

We haven't been in a hurry this year. It's a pain and our kids are aging out of the tax credits. We usually feed and house four extra humans (three are ours) but only our 16 year old gives us a credit on last year's taxes. We're going to get a few hundred back but we just didn't have urgency to file. We're pretty much done, I think we'll submit it tomorrow.

I want that phone too. But if I'm honest and someone created it, it would cost more than flagship phones do now, and I already don't spend money on expensive phones.

Yes in North America the non-coastal west can get brutally hot, I've lived a few places there. I looked it up and Albertte has hit 44 C which is decently hot. But they've also experienced -61 C. Which one do you think will kill you faster if you don't have a temperature-controlled place to get away from it?

We don't really get those where I am but we do get unsurvivable cold snaps, so we've got that going for us.

I grew up in Portland, San Francisco and Duesseldorf but I live in Redneck parts of southern Ohio now. Cheers!

Have you seen the video to HARDY's "Rednecker"?

I like it but I don't need a keyboard and the price isn't really impulse buy range for me.

Attach a rope to it, tie it to the back of some kind of lifted 4x4 or truck, and have a buddy drag it around through the fields while you ride on top of it.

How can I be grateful for care I get to help subsidize but can't use? I literally haven't been to the doctor at all. How is that better health care? It's zero care. Broken bones and I just let them heal on their own and hoped it worked out. And you pull a racism card out of your ass too? What a fuckwit.

Gas prices aren't even as high as they've been under other presidents in the last 15 years, at least not in my area. I still don't want to be in another long war in the middle east though.

I only pay for "insurance" now. I can't afford care and skip it. I've had a broken arm, weeks of vomiting, and a dozen dangerously high fevers, chronic breathing issues, and I didn't get care for any of them. I also haven't been to the dentist in over 25 years. But I have "insurance". It's fucking evil and so are the advocates of mandates.

Oh I forgot the cracked rib I had just this January. Ribs heal themselves btw. No worries.
