Fuck our politicians and their collusion with Israel in this genocide. Our damn oligarchy masquerading as a democracy is getting to grow old and we need to change and take control of our country through voting which starts in the primaries so we get true progressives in instead of people who want to go backwards or rollover to those with power or money to control our democratic institutions. Yeah I'm looking at the damn DNC who control our only reasonable hope for change. argh

I've been tempted to sign up as well so I can stream to my TV through their app. I can block anything I want through my PC but smart TV's are too locked down for my technical knowledge so I get ad's which is unacceptable

I run uOrigin, flashblock, JS disabled, No Overlays, and DDG's privacy ad on's and I have no problems with YT

My son has a Mazda 3 hatchback and is often bringing stuff to work sites because the guy with the big truck and the bed cover can't fit tall boxes in the bed

I have some weird rabbit hole ideas about Reddit doing what it did and when. I think all public spaces are being restricted if it can't be controlled as wanted by the powers that be, Reddit was outside that power and WB may be the biggest example and how stocks were played out there did not follow the designed path which was disliked by those who could restrict or stop it. I resisted leaving Reddit because I almost felt like it was designed to get us to leave the public space. But I was really spending too much time there and I feel a lot better by not arguing about issues instead of discussing them.

Zionism is the belief that Jews have the right to all the biblical lands. IMO everything else is semantics.

I use hotel water for 2 things when I travel; showers and toilets. The 2 or 3 liters I drink is nothing compared to those. But I imagine Americans and others from areas where water isn't restricted take much longer showers and we have a habit of leaving the tap running while we do stuff like wash something or brush our teeth. That being said I'm heading to Barcelona in fall and I'll try to be mindful of my water usage

No large manufacturing and very rough country. I'd also guess a lot of the tourism is based in Madrid and Barcelona. I've looked at touring S. Spain and transportation is a bit difficult unless you bus or drive everywhere. I found this map that may be relevant. https://www.caixabankresearch.com/sites/default/files/styles/container_1400/public/content/image/2021/06/29/91184/p-7.jpg?itok=CgMvPxFA

I went to college in Daytona Beach in the late 70's so I have no idea how many I've been with. Maybe I should have kept a list. /s The last 40 years has been easy though as I've been married for that long.

It depends on the Michigan winter. I didn't put my snow tires on my car this year but I'm also not commuting to work every day anymore. I use all weather because they move water better than regular tires and the transition between cold seasons can last well over a month.

I actually do have an MSI laptop. I forgot I had read so many negative reviews of the Asus that I went the other direction. After posting that I got on my laptop and realized my mistake and remembered the negative reviews about them
