People would probably accept deportations, sadly, but thought the warnings about concentration camps were overblown.

And in the Everglades, of all places. Barbaric, but also really fucking dumb.

Even if it isn’t an outright cure for HIV, the progression to AIDS was linked to a compromised immune system, so this could possibly prevent the leap from ever happening.

Not necessarily. Sales taxes, payroll taxes, and income taxes are all paid by people who are living somewhere while not being an immigrant with a visa or the like.

Undocumented immigrants already pay more in taxes while not being eligible for most benefits programs.

This isn’t about a rational solution, it’s racism.

Ah, the Obstructionist Party.

Sure, sure. Plausible cover story…

But you just didn’t know about the hidden basement and the meth lab within it.

If each symbol on the edge of the rug is intended to be a cat butt, I thoroughly approve.

The term you’re looking for is dingleberries.

Better funding of higher education, lower costs of living in general for lower income people. Better public transportation as well.

That tries to at least address each of your concerns.

Believable shower thought… wanting to go back to bed.

The cryptocurrencies affected will just implement AI to circumvent these regulations.

Words and concepts have no meanings any longer. Fake AI money is the future.

I’d give it a shot, but I honestly leave my home only once a week, which makes these types of games less appealing to me.

I almost never travel either.

I’d still play a game that let me use/invest in local resources generously, and unlock more areas with travel.

I’d never be competitive in such a game, but I’m comfortable with that.

What works for you, works for you.

It may be possible to slowly wean yourself off of these behaviors that are worrying you. If it’s down to once a month, there isn’t as much of a jump to zero times a month, but maybe sometime. And then once it’s been a year, congratulate yourself for that and keep going.

Habits are hard to break and much easier to fall into. But if you are more conscious of these decisions, it all becomes a little bit easier with time.

That kind of mindfulness is a skill that is hard to develop, but your post leads me to think you’re already on your way.

That’s a tactic I’ve seen widely used, especially by the assholes we are talking about.

Words have meaning to us, and fascists love that because they are not beholden to any truth at all.

Ah, then I guess I don’t know how to interpret that.

Maps cannot answer that question.

Genealogy could, but has its downsides.

Whatever happened, it’s more valuable now.

Stewed beets are delicious, and beet greens are quite tasty too. A nice addition to any garden.

Now that is a good shower thought!

A terrible publication and source.
