Really starting to feel good about this whole retirement thing, just hope the muskrat doesn't fuck it up.
At my last big annual shindig for the team, a mentor of mine came up to me and congratulated me and then, emphatically, said âYOU ARE NOT YOUR JOBâ
He mightâve had issues, but he was also looking out for me.
every time i come up with some sort of hyper emotional, uber exaggerated, tabloid worthy political take
- someone has already beat me to it
my apologies
obviously my political partisan buffoonery game needs work
going to add more coffee and comedy
let's see where that gets me
the cool kids are really hammering the sardonic smear angle
moar bile! (that seems like a lot of work and i'm not sure i have that kind of time)
or how can i help create a radio paradise friendly digital kumbaya?
probably better for all involved
suggestions welcome

Worst in 40-ish years is correct though. I wonder if that '22 spike could have been the fallout from, perhaps, the mishandling of some earlier event. Hmm.
well, technically, 8.0 would have two digits. And if you look at it sideways, the inflation was infinite.

The double digit inflation here was the worst in 40 years.
I should accept that because it is worse elsewhere ?
I see.
Come on man, this is right up your channel of delusion. Everyone else is a little worse off than we are, so we won. This is your logic for everything else. Or are you just mad that you didn't get your divinely granted share of the largess that all the corporations got? You should have invested better, you mis-timed all your crypto interests, so you must not be on the 'in' list anymore. Don't worry, Others have profited from your losses, so the worthy have been served.
I guess that you missed a big clue in my comment that was not directed at you to begin with.
And how do you know that Biden has not hurt my life ? I hold Biden responsible for the inflation that has certainly hurt my life as well as many others.
Inflation in the US has been lower than most of the rest of the world. Besides, that's why you guys have a semi-independent Federal Reserve so that the major actions that affect the inflation are outside of the president's control. It's a system that has worked pretty well for a long time that the republicans hate.
And how do you know that Biden has not hurt my life ? I hold Biden responsible for the inflation that has certainly hurt my life as well as many others.
This is an obvious, ignorant response.
There are 3 possible causes of the recent inflation in the US: Trump, Biden, and the entire planet during/post COVID. If you want to blame domestic programs, I think it's fair to call it a tie between Biden and Trump.
Trump approved the $1.9 trillion CARES Act
Biden implemented the $2.1 trillion American Rescue Plan
The largest impact was supply-chain issues that resulted from COVID and the war in Ukraine. Any suggestion that Trump would have "managed" those issues better than Biden has no basis in reality. Trump's ineptitude in managing COVID is the reason is wasn't re-elected in 2020, and as for the war he "would have prevented" but was going to end during the first 24 hours of his new term... results speak for themselves.
If you didn't like the pain that Biden's policies put on your wallet... you might wanna stock up now. Prices are about to start rising....quickly. You should write these numbers down:
Gasoline: $3.11 per gallon (regular unleaded)
Eggs: $4.53 per dozen
Milk $4.10 per gallon
In particular... today... keep an eye on egg prices.
Donnie's freeze on CDC communications eliminates the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) that includes critical information in fighting health issues like bird flu. That will delay critical updates and containment efforts for the bird flu pandemic, worsening its spread and impact on poultry. This will exacerbate egg shortages, driving prices even higher, for a pandemic that is spreading still, and has claimed over 100 million poultry birds so far in the US.
You're free to hold Biden accountable for anything you'd like, with or without a reasonable understanding of how things work. Let's see if you will hold Trump accountable for inflation now. Just to be clear... inflation has been under control and prices have been stable for 2 years... so any "Biden policy created this issue for Trump" is total bullshit. Price increases now are on you. You have only yourself to blame (or thank) based on prices going forward.
I took your words at face value and don't see anything in the post you were responding to that in any way indicated I shouldn't. I guess no one should take what you say seriously. In any case, what I said stands - In spite of your hate for him, Biden hasn't hurt your life. And the reason for the late reply was I wanted to take the time for a considered response.

The last year was especially rough. There was not enough music or weed to ease the pain and make it go away.

You think way too hard. Go back and look at the question that I was answering.
I took it as somewhat rhetorical as opposed to serious and answered with that context in mind.
You put so many words in my mouth that I have not said that I cannot rebut everything you say and wonder why I do not always respond to your accusations.
And if I responded to everything directed at me I would have to hire an assistant. I'll chase my tail when I want to, not when you want me to.
And I wrote this 5 days ago , its down the RAFT and you just have to look hard to make something out of what is old and moved on from.
Why ?
One thing for sure is that you are not concerned about either my health or well being ...
