@champagnennuts Blasphemous not attributing correctly to one of the greatest bands ever.

@Nathan_Shoultz Oooph! 😂

[Andy Hamilton @HamiltonAndrew]

A weighted factor, yes. But a war that has caused diesel to be at $7/gallon in a low margin business likely had a lot to do with it too. ( Also- keep in mind, that community of Truckers also are listed in that kind of density because of where they are managed out of, not necessarily their garaging and home addresses. So this data isn't going to be accurate for trucker votes entirely).

THANK YOU.

[Andy Hamilton @HamiltonAndrew]

@TuckerMax Completely agree. There has been a coming and very visible paradigm shift. And with all power transfers in history, it's ugly and brutal.

[Andy Hamilton @HamiltonAndrew]

@katie_campione For real. There hasn't been many compelling, new movies created in YEARS. I get the temptation for financial purposes to recycle the same movies, prey on nostalgia, but it's tired and worn. No risk at all.

We can't go on, thinking the story that matters most is our own.

[Andy Hamilton @HamiltonAndrew]

Indeed.

@DavidDack Oh, EASILY the 5K in under 20.

There are things that my parents had to deal with, that I never will. For that I'm grateful.
That said, my jealousy of them not receiving multiple emails a day from our schools, not having to deal with sports team group chats, and the constant barrage of texts, emails, & all day nonsense...is HIGH.

Even if you don't own or operate a business, you will get something out of the newsletter. Promise.

Galatians 6:14 (ESV):

“But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.”

[Andy Hamilton @HamiltonAndrew]

@andresintheory @honkhog @consequence Ah, now I know we could at least enjoy a beer without too much fighting - you and I are very much on the same page about consumer Christianity, self idolatry, and prosperity gospel pedaling that's all too common.

[Andy Hamilton @HamiltonAndrew]

You could call me many things, but a fake Christian would not be one of them. People didn't like being called out on their hypocrisy during His time either. Best of luck as you continue to convince people that orthodox power structures are their to screw them, while being a cog in an obvious one yourself.

[Andy Hamilton @HamiltonAndrew]

Sure. With the vast majority of "faculty" in this country having a certain political ideology as their religion, something tells me you might fall into that category as well, while railing against the billionaire class, while thinking nothing of proving zero value in education while having the cost outpace the rest of inflation by 42%. Awfully convenient, and wildly hypocritical.... Which was exactly my point about the Strokes.

[Andy Hamilton @HamiltonAndrew]

@BeardofDarkness The fact that you're asking, seems like you already know. It's also highly dependent on how tough you are, and if you have a son.
