Abusers and users always play victim when you don’t tolerate their abuse.
Abuser: “Poor me, you don’t care about me.”
Actual victim: “No, I loved you! I just have self-worth and know that I deserve to be treated better so I’m moving on.”
@Owennfa There are cheaper home in places.
Buy/finance a camper move in an RV park save money faster than paying rent. When you’re ready you can probably rent out the RV to someone who can’t afford to finance or buy an RV.
Jo Nagai was raising swallowtail butterflies at his home in Kobe, Japan, when he noticed something odd. The ones he had looked after as caterpillars seemed to recognize him. Wild butterflies fled. His didn't.
He was in second grade. He wrote a four-page letter to Dr. Martha Weiss, an entomologist at Georgetown University who had studied whether moths could retain memories through metamorphosis. He asked if she could help him design a version of her experiment for butterflies.
She said yes.
Using a muscle therapy device, Jo trained caterpillars to associate the scent of lavender with a mild vibration. When the caterpillars became butterflies, 70 per cent of them still avoided the lavender. Their brains had been completely rebuilt during metamorphosis. The memory survived anyway.
Then he bred them.
The offspring, which had never been trained, also avoided lavender. So did their grandchildren. Without ever experiencing the vibration, two generations of butterflies inherited an aversion to a scent their grandmother had been taught to fear.
Jo documented it all in a 33-page research paper and presented his findings at the International Congress of Entomology in Kobe in 2024. He was 10.
A second grader wrote a letter to a Georgetown professor, and together they found evidence that butterflies can pass memories down through generations.

Elon Musk just exposed the most expensive physics failure in transportation history.
For a hundred years, nobody caught it.
Every diesel semi that crosses a mountain pays twice. Fuel to climb. Brakes to survive the descent.
At the summit, 80,000 pounds of freight holds enormous gravitational potential energy.
Free energy. Sitting right there.
Musk: “In a diesel truck, you actually don’t capture the energy of height or potential energy.”
Musk: “You have to actually spend a lot of money on expensive brakes going down the other side so you don’t run out of control.”
Diesel’s solution for a century? Destroy every watt of it as waste heat and burn through brake pads every few months.
Nobody questioned it. Not the engineers. Not the operators. Not Wall Street.
Because combustion made the loss invisible. You cannot turn momentum back into liquid fuel. So the entire industry mistook the limits of their engine for the limits of physics.
The Tesla Semi broke that assumption wide open.
Musk: “An electric semi truck is able to recapture the gravitational potential energy and in fact puts the energy back in the pack.”
Every descent charges the battery. The mountain stops being a toll.
It becomes a power plant.
Analysts keep running cost-per-mile models. Kilowatts versus gallons. Sticker versus payload.
Wrong equation entirely.
You don’t outcompete a machine that turns the terrain itself into fuel.
The trucking industry never had a fuel problem.
It had a hundred-year physics problem dressed up as the cost of doing business.
One man solved it. The rest are still buying brake pads.
The FBI lied about the stats on civilians stopping shooters in an attempt to push propaganda designed to remove the 2A.
Citizens have stopped 52.5% of shooters in non-gun free zones and 36% in gun free zones. The FBI claimed it was only 3.7%
“The fraud is not real”

Society will never improve until people and the media can look at issues with a logical perspective of: Is this right or wrong to be happening?
EXPOSE IT ALL

Senator John Kennedy on Elon Musk and DOGE exposing USAID, “I'll tell you what Mr. Musk discovered. I find it fascinating. He discovered:
- The American taxpayers are giving money to Afghanistan
- He found that we are giving money to Yemen
- He found that we are giving money to Syria
- He found that the USAID has 10,000 people employees, and every year they give away $40 billion
- He found that the USAID gave money to support electric vehicles in Vietnam. Our money, taxpayer money
- He found that the USAID gave money to a transgender clinic in India. “I didn't know that. I bet you the American people didn't know that”
- He found that USAID gave $1.5 million to a Serbian LGBTQ group, they got $1.5 million to QUOTE, “advanced diversity, equity, inclusion in Serbia's workplaces and business communities”
- They found that USAID spent $164 million to support radical organizations around the world
- They gave $122 million of that to groups aligned with foreign terrorist organizations
- According to this report in Mr. Musk, the USAID has given millions of dollars to quote organizations in Gaza controlled by Hamas
- He found that we gave $2 million, USAID did, for sex changes in Guatemala
- He found that we gave $20 million to produce a new Sesame Street show in Iraq
- He found that we gave $4.5 million of taxpayer money to combat misinformation in Kazakhstan
- He found that we gave $10 million, USAID did, of meals to an al-Qaeda-linked terrorist group called the Nusra Front
- Mr. Musk found that we gave $7.9 million of taxpayer money to a project that would teach Sri Lankan journalists to avoid binary gendered language. (The USAID took 8 million bucks and gave it to a bunch of journalists in Sri Lanka to teach them how to avoid binary gendered language)
- USAID gave $1.5 million to promote LGBT advocacy in Jamaica
- They gave $1.5 million to rebuild the Cuban media ecosystem
- They gave $1.5 million for quote, art for inclusion of people with disabilities in Belarus
- Another $3.9 million for LGBT causes in Macedonia
- $8.3 million for equity and inclusion education in Nepal
“I could go all night and many of my colleagues are upset. They're really mad at Mr. Musk. Hell, I think we ought to give him a medal”
This has a clinical name. Revenge bedtime procrastination. And the ADHD version runs on a completely different mechanism than the neurotypical one.
A neurotypical person stays up late because they want more leisure time. The ADHD brain stays up because it spent every drop of dopamine it had on executive function during the day. Sitting in meetings, managing transitions, filtering impulses, remembering the thing you were supposed to remember. That burns through dopamine the way sprinting burns through glycogen. By 10pm the tank is empty.
But here's where it gets counterintuitive. The exhaustion is physical. The dopamine deficit is neurological. Those are two separate systems. Your muscles want sleep. Your prefrontal cortex is starving for the stimulation it was denied all day because it spent 14 hours on task-switching and impulse control instead of anything that actually felt rewarding.
The phone at midnight is the brain trying to collect what it's owed. Low-effort, high-stimulation content. Scrolling, short videos, rabbit holes. The exact profile of activity that delivers dopamine without requiring the executive function you already depleted.
The sleep researchers call this a "self-regulation failure." It's closer to a debt collection. You borrowed against your own reward system to function all day. The bill comes due at midnight. And the brain will not let you sleep until it gets paid.
