@CP24 All of these posts saying how obsurd this is, are missing the reasoning behind it: Notes taken by any other means than hand-writing allow for true retention of the material. The brain funtions involved in forming the letters and words engage the brain to absorb the information.
I’m so tired of hearing “Our grandparents could buy a house on one salary, but now we can’t even afford rent on two!”
Yeah, because Grandma wasn’t blowin’ half her paycheck on $12 iced coffee and avocado toast, that’s why!
Back then, if they wanted coffee, they made it at home. With grounds so strong it could remove rust. You didn’t drink it… you survived it.
And Grandma wasn’t out there “brunchin’.” You think she had time for brunch? No! She was at home, cooking something called whatever’s left in the house.
And don’t even bring up Uber Eats.
These people today are crying about money while living in a 4-bedroom house with two SUVs, six streaming services, and matching sleeve tattoos. You think Grandpa had a tattoo? Yeah it said “Korea, 1951.” And it came with nightmares, not realitic shading.
Oh, don’t even get me started on the kids. “We can’t make ends meet, but Brayden needs the new iPhone!” No, he doesn’t! You’re giving an $1100 phone to a kid who still eats glue and boogers.
When we were kids, the family phone hung on the wall. It had a cord long enough to jump rope with, and if you wanted privacy, you had to go stand in the pantry. And somehow, we survived.
And the TV? There was one. One.
It was in the living room, and Dad controlled it. If he wanted to watch bowling, guess what? You liked bowling.
Now every room’s got a 65-inch screen, the baby’s got an iPad, and you’re sitting there wondering why you can’t afford rent.
Because you’re living like rappers, that’s why!
Grandpa wasn’t out here leasing Teslas and buying $12 smoothies called “Detox Sunrise.” He was driving a truck that sounded like thunder and smelled like oil and cigarettes.
They lived within their means. Whatever Grandpa’s paycheck bought, that’s what they had. They didn’t try to keep up with the Joneses. They were just trying to keep the fed and a roof over their heads.
So yeah, Grandpa could buy a house on one salary. But he also didn’t have 47 subscriptions and emotional-support crystals. He had one support system, Grandma, who told him to suck it up and mow the yard.
Now folks are broke, tired, and stressed… and it’s not because of inflation… it’s because y’all keep ordering tacos from DoorDash like you’re royalty.
Wake up and smell the truth!!
@Matt_Pinner I'd do more than back them....I'd encourage & support them 100%! "Earn while you learn" on your apprenticeship vs $50k - $60k college/university debt and no job guarantees!

BREAKING: Donald Trump is confronted about the Jeffrey Epstein scandal during an Oval Office meeting with the Prime Minister of Bahrain and explodes into a rant that it's a "hoax" and slams his "stupid" and "foolish" supporters for believing it.
He's coming apart at the seams and humiliating us on the world stage...
"Mr. President, I know you want to move past all of this intrigue over the Epstein files but I do want to ask you to clarify something you said this morning. You said this was all a 'hoax,'" said a reporter.
"A big hoax!" interjected Trump.
Earlier today, Trump blasted out a lengthy Truth Social post called the Epstein story a "hoax" and whined that his "PAST supporters" have "bought into this bullshit" and so he no longer wants their support.
"Has your attorney general told you this was a hoax? What evidence have you seen?" the reporter asked.
"No, it's not the attorney general. No, I know it's a hoax... It's started by Democrats. It's been run by the Democrats for four years," said Trump. "You had Christopher Wray and these characters and Comey before him and uh..."
Christopher Wray was appointed as the FBI Director by Trump in 2017. By no metric was he a Democratic operative.
"It's a bad group. It started— Actually look at the Steele Dossier that turned out to be a total hoax. The fifty one agents, the intelligence, the so-called intelligence agents," Trump continued. "It was a hoax."
"It's all be a big hoax. It's perpetrated by the Democrats and some stupid Republicans and foolish Republicans fall into the net and so they and do the Democrats' work," he went on. "Uh, the Democrats are good for nothing other than these hoaxes. They're bad for policy. They're bad for picking candidates that can get elected like in, uh, New York we have a Communist running. He may get elected to it actually but he'll destroy the city."
As has been explained ad nauseam in countless publications, Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani is not a Communist and this random potshot from Trump just demonstrates how desperate he is to find a distraction from Epstein.
"Uh, no, no... I call it the Epstein Hoax," Trump went on. "Takes a lot of time and effort. Instead of talking about the great achievements we've had, a great gentleman yesterday as you know went on CNBC and he made the statement that Trump may go down as the greatest president of all in the United States and instead of talking about the things we've achieved..."
Tellingly, Trump is not explaining how or why the Epstein story is a hoax. He's too lazy to even do the legwork of constructing a convincing narrative. He's simply hoping that his supporters are gullible and obedient enough to go along with him on this narrative.
First, his Attorney General Pam Bondi said that Epstein's client list was waiting on her desk for review. Then her Justice Department said that there was no list, no evidence of a blackmail ring, and no evidence that Epstein was murdered. Then, Trump said that the Epstein files do exist but that Barack Obama wrote them so they should be ignored.
Furthermore, the idea that Trump will go down in history as the "greatest president of all" is downright laughable. He will be remembered as one of the greatest mistakes this country has ever made. His tariffs have devastated the world economy and driven our allies into the arms of China, his ICE crackdowns are tearing apart innocent families, and his "big, beautiful, bill" will leave millions of Americans without health insurance by cutting $1 trillion from Medicaid.
"We've had tremendous achievement, they're wasting their time with, uh, a guy who obviously had some very serious problems who died three, four years ago," added Trump, who once called Epstein a "terrific guy."
"Uh, I'd rather talk about the success we've had with the economy, the best we've ever had, and all of the things we've done, including in the Middle East," he said. "I mean you see it. Instead, they want to talk about the Epstein hoax. And the sad part is it's people that are really doing the Democrats' work. They're stupid people."
At this point, the only "stupid people" are those who still believe that Trump is telling the truth about Epstein.
Please retweet and ❤️ to demand the full release of the Epstein files!
AG Pam Bondi: “Know this. Donald Trump and our entire administration will never tolerate any attacks on our police officers."
On his first day in office, Trump pardoned nearly 200 people who assaulted police officers on Jan. 6.
BREAKING:
Both the White House and RNCC have lashed out at the creators of this ad.
It must have struck a nerve. Maybe they don't like being outed as fascists.
You know what to do: SPREAD THIS EVERYWHERE!

@PLawrenceCAN You have to be realistic here. July 1st is less than 6 weeks away. Parliament isn't capable of going through this process that quickly. Give the man a chance!
