    Gonna try something new for the new year as long as I have this new client contract. Gonna give myself $100/mo in spending money (mostly for games), with one catch. I'll have to stick within the budget, and if I go over; the overage is deducted from the next month's budget. I'm currently undecided as if I want to keep months where I underspend and be able to roll those over to the next month. I should be able to figure something out.

    This is how I buy my Transformers.

    My body hurts too much to be working out so I have not lifted weights for about a year. The only exercise I do is walk for half an hour. I'll probably lift again when most of the pain is gone. 

    Do what your body allows for. Something is in fact better than nothing.

    For some reason healing/cleansing is a painful experience.

    Your body is an adaptive machine. It compensates for what you give (both in food and physical stress) it to operate  at is best "efficiency". You are taking it outside of it's comfort zone and now it's working to get back to what it's used to. It takes a while for that new "stress" to become the new normal.

    Because for a while the few SRKers  posting in the lounge in the early days of it were keeping people significantly better informed than the news channels. The SRK CoVid thread also did a better job of informing people about the situation, where the danger was (overloaded hospitals and easy transmission), and keeping people calm.

     

    At this point people are essentially burnt out because they weren't spoken to honestly from the jump.  Then the virus was turned into a weird political tit for tat situation when both parties did dumb shit involving it early on.  But the Trump admin didn't really bother taking control of the situation until it was going to explode in their faces so here we are.

     

    Messaging is all broken, its a long term issue and life is FUBAR.

    I remember when this started and told my wife this is going to be "different". She was part of the "if you get it, it'll be fine. No need in not living life" control group. That was until one of her mom's closest friends died from it. 

     

    I got family who have been gravely ill from the flu pulling that same shit and stating there isn't a need to wear a mask  because life is too short. They've also gone anti-vaxx and got WOKE. I can barely talk to them without them preaching how lizard people are controlling things. Sometimes you just gotta love people from afar.

     Bro, think I got you beat:

     

    "#Breaking: There are currently 998 Covid-19 hospitalizations in El Paso, with 293 patients in the ICU. Both are records."

     

    My city is going HAM in all the wrong ways.

    How are we 10 months in and still can't get this right?

    I think Biden winning is the better outcome but I can't even imagine how crazy the next Republican candidate will be in 2024 if that happens.

    I don't think we'll see anything like him for a long time. It's too risky of a strategy. You also need someone with that same level of narcissistic bravado that's established. Maybe The Rock would be a shoe in.

    Youth for Christ is a big one in my city. So kids can get all the prayer they want in those groups. On top of that, there is a supreme court decision stating that schools have to provide students with time to pray if they needed. So every day during morning announcements there is a "moment of silence" which is there so kids can say a prayer.

     

    It's amazing how many people don't know this.

    Waffles are science put to good use. They hold syrup better, they hold toppings better and they are cooked in a device that guarantees uniform shape for great presentation.

    I don't know why this would even be an argument to test. Not only this but they reheat in a myriad of ways and can be restored to almost the same quality level. No one wants a flaccid pancake.

    Its LARPers gone wild. Instead of dressing up like dorks and screaming "lightning bolt" they gotta go out dressed like dorks and pretend to be a revolution.

     

    Gotta cosign Tubb though. Maybe we should start a political party stanning Hash Browns. When I went full Keto, hash browns were my biggest craving. Need to learn how to make them. Godlike breakfast item.
