Since the guys that ran on the economy have suddenly pivoted to social issues all those people who voted for them will likely switch parties. The people who weren't fanatical left wingers , who basically put Trump in office, will put him out of office for non performance.
   That's how it goes not everybody is rich enough to vote for esoteric bullshit.
 Then the Democrats will have a chance to reinvigorate the economy. If they fail.... Back to the Republicans!

"BEIJING — China launched the Shenzhou 22 spacecraft on Tuesday to help bring back a team of astronauts after a damaged spacecraft left them temporarily stranded on China's space station.

Earlier this month, another group of Chinese astronauts from the Shenzhou 20 mission faced a nine-day delay in their return to Earth after their craft's window was damaged. They eventually returned using the Shenzhou 21 spacecraft, which had just carried the replacement crew to Tiangong.

While the three-person crew landed safely on Earth, three of their fellow astronauts on the replacement crew were temporarily left without a guaranteed way to return in case of an emergency.

The Shenzhou 20 spacecraft — the damaged one, which for now remains in space ...

...China developed Tiangong after the country was excluded from the International Space Station over U.S. national security concerns, since China's space program is controlled by its military."




Here in America, we salute our Chinese comrades as they march boldly into the 70's !

[ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ]

It's surprisingly cold this time of year in Michigan at 3 in the morning.

Surprisingly?

Shocked the shit out of me. I was half-dressed.

I'm doing my taxes for '24. I don't know what the rush is.  This Obamacare has created such a mess. We get non-stop phone calls from insurance companies, we pay for some bullshit coverage no one takes and on top of that it creates what may possibly be a taxable event. But I won't really know until I pay an accountant a grand to straighten me out. Every time the government tries to help us they fuck everything up and then hold you accountable under the inescapable might of law if you can't decipher their convoluted mountains of code and regulations. 

All's I can say is thank Christ all of us are healthy. I couldn't imagine what it would be like if someone here had a chronic health problem and had to negotiate this mess and go to war with insurance companies every day for every breath they take just to keep from becoming homeless. What a disgrace. What a nightmare.

OMG! Are you making fun of me because of all my chronic health problems?  That’s terrible!  Now I’m worried about being homeless again.😳😭😱🤪😛
Actually, I don’t worry much about anything. I’m pretty glad just to wake up. 👍
