@Mathew_Winters1@1muralist1 You are making a mistake using metal to touch your honey. Use wood,always. The metal causes chemical reactions
in the honey and destroys some of the benefits. FYI
@HealthRanger Same. I don't see anyone that I follow. I see nonstop BS that I do not have an interest in at all. If I mute a BS account, I get dozens of the same types of accounts shoved into my feed. I am so tired of it. I can't even find some of the accounts that I follow and want to see.
SEVERE WEATHER OUTBREAK is expected tomorrow across the Midwest and Mississippi Valley, with very large hail, damaging winds, and several tornadoes possible.
This could be one of the more significant severe weather days we've had in 2026. I definitely think a moderate risk of severe weather will be added in future outlooks. Spread the word about this threat and prepare now.
@ThatEricAlper A water vacuum. The dirt goes into a container of water, not a bag or filter. It is the best machine ever. Dirt goes in, clean air out. No bag dust thrown into the air.
Cash for Clunkers destroyed 690,000 functional vehicles in 2009, creating an artificial scarcity that rippled through used car markets for over a decade. The Obama administration sold this $3 billion program as environmental salvation and economic stimulus, but any free market economist could predict the real outcome: massive wealth destruction disguised as progress.
The program forced dealers to pour sodium silicate into engines, permanently destroying cars that poor families could have afforded. Politicians eliminated the bottom tier of the used car market overnight. Suddenly, a reliable $3,000 Honda Civic became a $7,000 Honda Civic (if you could find one). The supposed beneficiaries — working-class Americans who needed affordable transportation — got priced out entirely.
Government intervention always creates unseen victims, and Cash for Clunkers delivered them by the millions. Single mothers, college students, and minimum-wage workers watched their mobility options vanish as used car prices soared 30% between 2009 and 2014. The environmental gains proved negligible too: most clunkers averaged 15-17 MPG while replacements hit 24-25 MPG. Destroying half a million cars to improve average fuel economy by 8 MPG represents the kind of central planning that would give Soviet bureaucrats a hard-on.
The wealth destruction extended beyond sticker prices. Higher transportation costs forced people into longer payment terms, creating a debt cycle that persists today. Cash for Clunkers normalized 84-month auto loans, turning cars from depreciating assets into multi-year financial anchors.
Bureaucrats congratulated themselves for moving inventory off dealer lots while condemning an entire generation to transportation poverty.
Major point of disagreement with President Trump today following him saying Americans “support” the Red Cross
The Red Cross is evil. NO American should support them
- They HANDED OUT MAPS for third worlders to invade our country
- Attempted to SEIZE Starlinks deployed by me and @ChrisHallWx in Western North Carolina to reconnect victims of Hurricane Helene (they wanted to be the WiFi gatekeepers)
- Tried THROWING AWAY hot food we donated to shelters near Asheville, simply because they wanted to be able to bill TAXPAYERS for each plate of slop they were force-feeding to victims
My Red Cross rage is actually how I first met @mattvanswol, who helped me coordinate relief efforts.
Red Cross is a corrupt organization, and it should be dissolved.
@AimePatrickIra1 Do you know about the lawsuit in Oregon? The state of Oregon has just sued a citizen for his rain collection. The state of Oregon WON the case. Oregon owns the rain. It's illegal to collect rain. The man was even forced to drain the 100 yr old ponds on his property.
