Trump II seems a lot more staid and stable as compared to his previous run. Or maybe now the bar for what we think is crazy has been raised so high no one cares anymore. But one thing's for sure, over the past however long, he's been the voice of reason in these troubled times. When you look at the totality of what the past administration has managed to force us to accept bit-by-bit over a few years it is truly shocking. It's deranged and I'm glad we're finally able to call bullshit on it and at least attempt to bring this nation about and back on a course of rationality. If then, the rest of the Free World will be encouraged to follow and our enemies will therefore shudder.

This is the worst of the worst though. We all live indoors. It's 70 at my desk year-round. It's just not having that ability to move freely in and out of the house, having the windows open, birds, vegetation etc.  I read that not being exposed to sunlight compromises your immune system too. But it ends. Without this shit, we probably wouldn't value the rest of the year as much. I'd rather have winter than wildfires.

I suppose winter hampers your freedom in that you cannot just jump in your car and speed off with the windows down and music playing. Somehow, throughout my life, it has always come to be that my car has only one choice in music. Like the Turkmobile - the Doors cd has been stuck in the player for like five years. I kind of cycle in and out of being sick of it. In my first car (1974 Camaro) I had a cassette of Beach Boys Endless Summer stuck in there.
Seems about right.

I interface my phone and listen to whatever I want.

African fighters are present on the front line in Ukraine. Some are there of their own free will. But for others, there may have been deception. Believing they were going to work in Russia, they were sent to fight.

"The Cameroonian clearly evokes a strategy of exhausting the Ukrainians by sending thousands of men from Africa and Asia in Russian uniforms to face the danger. In particular, he explains that he had to throw himself in front of the Ukrainian army, which was invisible because it was entrenched, trampling over numerous decomposing corpses. Apart from death, the only way out is to be taken prisoner or to injure oneself, sometimes deliberately. In the latter case, it's only a short respite in hospital before being sent back into the hell of war. All the more so as he explains that, unlike the troops with native Russians, he and his companions could not benefit from the jamming tools of Ukrainian drones. “We're very poorly equipped. [The Russians] send us out with nothing at all to fight and die."

Apparently Russia doesn't plan on losing.

I'm just trying to keep the temperature at 72 and the humidity at around 35%. That's primate weather.

For thenlast 2 hours I’ve been driving in a blizzard, going shopping for the dying fcks at home. So, I went to turn into the main road, and my car immediately slid. I liked it. I didn’t touch the break. I just let it dance its way out. I think the driver behind me sht his britches though.
Now I know why my husband doesn’t like to let me drive when the weather is bad. He calls me adrenaline junkie.
He might have a point.
