    damn... this story on Fox right now---about a guy who moved here from San Francisco... he mentioned paying 3300 a month in a bad part of town apparently?!  That's insane to me...but not too surprising.  The cost of living is so far off the deep end in comparison....both there and in New York City from what I hear.  It always surprises me that so many (non-rich) people would continue to stay there by choice.  I'd always rather be in a place where my money is a bit more effective in having a nice life.... like imagine you earn 300k a year but you're in some place where that's just "scraping by somewhat".  Nah, I'd rather be in a spot where 6 figures means you live like a goddamn king.  

     

    Man...he mentioned 3300 a month... and the most I've paid was around 1200 (water included in the rent price) for a fairly decent 1-bedroom apartment, in a complex with gated entry and a very nice pool area, fitness center, tennis court, etc.  Cheapest was about 630-ish (which included 1 utility bill), and even that place was an "ok" 1-bedroom. 

     

    edit---ha, at my old place it hasn't changed much.  In fact, you can get a 3-bedroom there for about 1,920

    Man, Now I'm gonna look around this area and see what I can find.

    Kinda out of the blue topic, but PS5 players:  Do you have problems with your controller doing shit you didn't tell it to do?  

    This fucker is throwing extra commands in which, in some games will simply get ignored, but in others it can go through and wreck whatever you're trying to do.  I submit as evidence, Wukong In Warframe.  This bitch be glitching up enough without the added headaches, so I hope this is just my imagination.  If not, PC Master Race here I come.

    Edit---the topic of borrowing money = hell nah...just generally speaking.  I learned quite a long time ago to stop being generous.  Usually it's enabling the person and WILL become a pattern, since a lot of people are just bums....and they always will be that.  That shit annoys me...when there's someone that is seemingly ok with existing forever as a parasite on someone else's cashflow.

    This.

     

    All but about two people total that I've let borrow money have done EXACTLY what Million posted.  They just keep coming until you push them away.   Sad as it is, a LOT of people do seem to be okay with holding their hands out over making the money they need.

    With this whole thing with restaurants fuckin over servers taking their tips, I may stop supporting restaurants that do that or better yet, I'll just CashApp/PayPal servers instead so that money goes directly to their account where the managers can't touch it

    I hear ya.  I have pulled the old,"Left my phone on the table" trick to make the waiter/waitress come outside.  When they do, I hand them the tip and say,"Put it in your pocket and don't share it with the rest of them." so that such as this won't happen.  Ironically, the place I used to work at didn't do this and sometimes they got some stupid big tips.  I'm talking,"Rent/car/electric/mortgage/The whole damn list is covered!" kinds of tips.

    Off topic:  Am I the only one who finds the name,"Ryan" weird on a female? Like, she better be banging hot and wearing a bikini when she introduces herself, because when I hear that name I'm checking her neck and looking for,"Surprise packages".  Just sayin.

     

    On topic:  Ms. Ryan:  Keep the cash and bounce.  You can't drive two blocks without seeing help wanted signs, so another job isn't going to be a problem.  On top of that, she should publicly shame their asses worse than the news article has.  They might end up closing the doors over trying to be greedy.

    y'know, I was just laughing about this with an old friend ---the all-time funniest thing I ever saw and encountered in a videogame--- the side-mission with the septic tank truck in Saints Row 2....you proceed to "paint the town brown", spraying the shit everywhere...you can even use that shit-juice cannon like a weapon too; the cops pull up trying to stop you and they can get sprayed down too.  Hahah they get sprayed down with the brown.  The npc in the vehicle with ya is crackin jokes too like "...boy this town smells like shit---BAAHHHHHAHAH!"  I kept having to pause this shit to recover from laughing so hard.

    I have the unsettling feeling that this may soon happen in some part of California.  My guess is either Los Angeles or San Fran.

     

     

    In other news, the Laptop is now crashing everytime I switch HDMI inputs.  Not a problem because the new one is already assembled and in testing according to Xidax.com.  I'm guessing it'll be a week or so before it gets here and then I'll dump this one to music service in the backroom.  I didn't want to lose my last win 7 machine, but such is the way of life.

    You better be stuffing stars up yo ass again, boi. They are not designed to go in anus😂

    .....................Hold on buddy.  It ain't gonna be THAT kinda Christmas! 

     

    EDIT:  I would've been able to laugh more if not for the horror stories I remember from doing inspections during the Navy.  I didn't see any stars up any asses, but that was probably because I wasn't the one on duty THAT day and not that it never happened.   Chances are good that it happened and it happened more than once.

    No one knew she was on the spectrum when she first popped up. It was a girl trying to get attention about climate change. 

     

    But then right wings came after her and called her retarded. They can't tell the difference between autism and every other mental condition. Then Donald trump started Goin in on her. 

     

    Basically she got more famous by Republicans being shit heads to a lil girl. Had they just stfu she prob wouldn't have been that famous 

    You mean like what happened to Nick Sandmann and Kyle Rittenhouse?  Just sayin.  

     

    I wonder if she can sue anyone for all the slander they laid on her?  

    .........What?  They didn't?  None of them?  Not a one?

    My post seems to have sailed completely over your head. So I'll be more blunt. Why fuck does anyone care what a little girl thinks about the situation.

    I'm betting that nobody did.  They could've used that mic time for something better, but Agendas don't push themselves and we've already caused so much trauma to her childhood, soooooooooo..................

    Why fuck does anyone care what a little girl thinks about the situation. She can't do anything to resolve the issue. So A) stop propping her up and  B) stop bitching about the people that are propping her up.

    That ain't how it works yo.  They don't get to put some little fat faced fascist on the mic to brow beat people and then call time out when they clapback.  If they wanted to have a serious conversation about it, they should've done that from the start.  This is what they chose, so this is what they get.

    Address the issue at hand. I'll repeat myself.

     

    "If people spent as much time addressing the issue as they did worrying about little girl complaining about it, progress might actually be made."

    Now I'm just repeating it so that we all get the message.

     

    I'm sure my original post hasn't moved the needle any further than Kid climate change's speech at the UN.  My point?  It was never meant to.  It was a joke.  Please take it as such.

    Isn't Greta retarded or something and that's why she gets so much attention?

    the number of times she got caught being nothing more than a mouthpiece for people pushing their agenda is probably the main reason.  

     

     

     

    ...................And then there's this.

    Yeah.  that's real and it isn't the only one.

    The US is a pretty big polluter, especially the military and our corporations, but I think more folks would be onboard with mitigating the climate change thing if:

     

    1. The people pushing it didn't spend so much time talking down to everyone 

     

    2. The proposed solutions made more sense and were realistic. Instead of trying to educate people on how nuclear is a safe choice that ticks all the boxes for what environmentalists want, we get things like  the Green New Deal which is insanely expensive and unlikely to ever really happen in the next 25-30 years. Even if you agree that climate change is an important issue, the climate activists are all so insane, it makes it hard to get behind them. 

    Now, America definitely isn't pollution free.  However, I think once you see where we are on the pollution leaderboard you might agree that we're not the guys who need a stern talking to.  https://www.iqair.com/world-most-polluted-countries  All of the top ten countries produce over 3 times as much as us.  If The globe is warming up, these are the places doing the most damage.  I'm just sayin.

     

    1:  Exactly what I was getting at, in my own sarcastic way.  Thank you.

     

    2: Exactly Times 2.  The stuff they've come up with makes everybody go,"WTF?" when they see and/or hear it.  California, I'm looking directly at YOU as I type this.  I mean, they put everybody on electric cars to lower emissions, but the increased electrical costs are causing the plants to burn more coal which causes more pollution.  Now, I personally do not think climate change is a big deal, but I've no gripe against those who do.  My bigger problem lies with the using of *Insert anything here* for an agenda that usually ends up having nothing to do with the thing being used to push said agenda.

    Latest Chapter is out and Holy Shieeet!  

     

    https://onepiecechapters.com/manga/one-piece-chapter-1023

     

    Some really interesting reveals:

     

      Reveal hidden contents

    LunariansThese might be the ones who are behind the lost civilization. Sanji's Lineage Factor was likely manipulated by Judge to contain some Lunarian properties hence the subconscious fire manipulation. The Raid suit might be further augmenting Sanji's abilities which is why he feels off. However, I think it goes deeper. This might explain all the elemental properties we've seen used in the different races. Fishmen and Mermen with water manipulation, Minks with electricity manipulation and why certain characters including Luffy could use certain techniques to conjure fire a la Red Hawk. Lunarians might've created all these different races by being master manipulators of the Lineage Factor which is why they were seen as gods.

     

    The Shandians, Birkans, and Skypeians are either descendants or separate ethnicities of the Lunarians, and the Red Line might hint of a great calamity that befell that Kingdom. This clearly ties into the abandoned civilization on the moon and the automatons than Enel now controls. I still don't know what this has to do with Space Pirates however.

     

    Zoro finally has some of his origins expounded on after 1000 chapters and unsurprisingly he shares lineage with Ryuma, how a descendant of Wano found himself in the East Blue is interesting...

    I'm 90% sure that after the major events of Wano conclude we will finally see Vegapunk, these revelations are right in line with a face reveal. Oda said ages ago that once he appears all the secrets of the Devil Fruits will be answered which is likely why he's been holding him back for so long. He might even be one of "them".

     

    I'm So Hype Right Now!!!

    damn.  Whenever I click any of those links I get a 404.  Any ideas why?

    If they didn't want people talking about her, they shouldn't have shoved her down our throats as hard as they did.

    Instead of lecturing America which has some of the lowest pollution in the world about the problem, they should be taking their concerns to countries where you can barely see in front of you because of the amount of pollution.  Can't figure out why they would want to avoid the places where the problem is biggest over the places where the problem is the smallest.  It's almost as if they don't really care about it at all and are only using it as a chance to virtue signal.

     

     

    .............I might be wrong, but I don't think so.
