@ShitpostRock Not a panacea, but rainwater catchment gets big gov/co. out of your water supply.

@berniehoe2 The owner of the construction firm was a scumbag ____ lawyer who cut corners with the construction to save a few bucks on rebar. At least 35 of the victims were also ____.

@mattforney 💯People should learn to bloom where they’re planted. Transplants ruin everything.

@VladTheInflator Depressions/recessions favor those already rich with capital, and allows them to exploit reduced markets to further enrich themselves. What we really need are the decades that followed the great depression: stability and policies that prioritizes the middle-class American family

@Oilfield_Rando Free cash for homeowners and landlords. Renters, aspiring home owners, and people who simply don’t want to be taxed for other’s stuff, are told to kick rocks. Boomers failed to maintain their homes for years too. Big W for the social parasites, wealthy, and boomers.

[Gatewood @GatewoodScout]

@VladTheInflator If home prices ever actually dropped in the U.S., (which I don’t think it will bc infinite foreign capital), then I legitimately think the government would give stimulus checks to the landlords & boomers, and create an easy-to-scam PPP loan type system for the developers.

Endless sprawl imminent. Go out and enjoy your beloved green spaces. Enjoy the sunrise over a farm or ranch, because soon it’s all being bulldozed for overpriced homes and apartments that will have a ~10% vacancy rate. Savor that drive on open road before the traffic comes.

I've never seen more politicians cry about a bill.

The Housing Act must be fucking terrible for America

[Gatewood @GatewoodScout]

@MojaveArtClub American mythology is dead because a significant percentage of the country is either just straight up not American, or they’re a hyper-socialized striver/scammer/transplant that just consumes whatever the algorithm feeds them

All it takes is one memo from the general counsel of a company like Steam or Apple or Google or Microsoft, they revoke your digital license, and everything you built/bought is deleted.
They won’t care what it meant to you.
They won’t care how much time you put into it.

Inflation dominoes:

First, they came for housing.
Then, they came for education.
Then, they came for cars.
Then, they came for gas.
Then, they came for food.
Now, they come for your computer.
Soon, they’re coming for books.

For the finale, they cancel all your digital licenses

[Gatewood @GatewoodScout]

@AutismCapital Next domino to fall to inflation will be books, especially used books. All those cheap $6 copies at used bookstores will soon be a thing of the past. It will be impossible or cost-prohibitive to read books that counter the prevailing narrative. History becomes whatever ai says.

own beliefs, they’ll use our state apparatus to further their own identity’s interests, and it will lead to the destruction of the “tolerant” West.

[Gatewood @GatewoodScout]

I now have a totally different interpretation of the phrase “unlimited tolerance of intolerance will lead to the disappearance of tolerance.” All politics are identity politics. We’re just the only identity in history to have spent the last several decades actively…

[Gatewood @GatewoodScout]

sabotaging our own people’s future. Our people, meaning America + most of Europe, are uniquely tolerant. The minute we cede power to anyone other than ourselves, whether they’re Israeli or Ugandan or whatever, regardless of their class or race or religion, they’ll import their

Population quality > population quantity

@nativistconcern The pattern is shocking, it’s especially bad amongst Hispanics. Their family always covers for them too. Plus, they usually have connections overseas and can just flee the country once they inevitably get released pre-trial, if the system even tries to punish them at all

[CatGirl Kulak 😻😿 (Anarchonomicon) @FromKulak]

This is why father custody was the Default in all but emergencies til the 1960s.

”Girls are safer with the mom” is completely false because a single mother is a revolving door of boyfriends and immorality… even assuming they don’t Pimp their daughter to get a “better” boyfriend.

BTW if you’re a man in a relationship and you have a single daughter or daughters, you can’t stop having kids… women are vastly more likely to divorce if they have only 1 or 2 daughters… because now those are “accessories” that increase their own market value.

”I can do better” she thinks… ignoring the part of her mind that knows the reason she’ll do better is because she‘s now offering a package deal.

@mtracey I don’t think he’s very high iq if he used China as a success story for monogamous relationships when China has a male loneliness crisis 10x worse than America’s

The overcrowding of public lands really sucks. You can be far from any major city, drive 2 hours down a rough forest road, and you’ll still find infinite foreigners with Bluetooth speakers, oblivious boomers new to the outdoors, a sprinter van in your fav spot, & homeless camps

[American Philosophy @AmerPhilo2025]

I loathe sounding like a boomer.

But.

When I was a kid, Home Depot was run entirely by guys who could make a dovetail joint with a pocket knife. Hobby lobby was staffed by grammas who could make a quilt by hand out of old t shirts (not a metaphor - I own one).

Yesterday, we visited Home Depot and were greeted only by people who speak so little English they didn’t know what a respirator was. Not a single one of them have built anything in their life. The fabric desk at hobby lobby had a lady in a hijab who also didn’t speak English and couldn’t tell us the difference between two fabrics.

Tried enjoying a quiet day at the lake today. Thankfully, I got to experience full cultural enrichment while enjoying my peaceful day out (sound on).

I miss the country I knew.
