@cboyack It is more affordable to live in Vienna than in most large cities in the US, despite much higher taxes, because of lower out of pocket costs for healthcare, housing, and education.
Labor market, travel, and consumer goods purchases have been beating expectations last 3 months and I propose it is the Swift economy. Recession hits when the tour ends. She has to tour forever.
@AutodidactusS @winslow_evan@cboyack You see, I mostly dislike the state, but it is only because of the state that I am free of religious tyranny. Remove the state and I would be forced into Christianity (this is my belief based on historical evidence but isn’t a fact) and even less freedom. So I accept the state.
@AutodidactusS @winslow_evan@cboyack Well then you will understand outsourcing your morality to an authority other than yourself. So perhaps we can have a useful rather than acrimonious conversation about what that means
@winslow_evan@cboyack In this case, I was specifically referring to the perspective of being in a constant state of cold war in all your relationships. You must be an absolute delight.
@winslow_evan @AutodidactusS @cboyack There’s a huge difference between local government and federal government. There is no civilization without local government.
This is me on stage in March 2023. I am 5’9” and 185 lbs, which makes me borderline obese per BMI. Look at me and know that BMI is the dumbest thing ever
Some things you kinda knew all along are confirmed deep into your bones in your 40s—kids grow up, marriages end, friends die. You realize, therefore, that if you’re not doing something today, you’re not doing it at all. They call this “mid life crisis” but it’s also wisdom
@chuckles_76@JosephSmithsHat I’m saying he should be with a 160+ lb woman and feel how soft and warm and wonderful she is. He doesn’t even know or he wouldn’t care. The guys who are with the girls he wants don’t have lists like his.
@chuckles_76@JosephSmithsHat Based on Anthony’s list, he doesn’t like women. 160 lbs is not an overweight woman. That’s a healthy woman. We are all entitled to out own preferences, but his ideal woman is fake. He doesn’t like real women.
@chuckles_76@JosephSmithsHat Women say things like, “I just want a guy who likes women” and that eliminates 80% of men in YSA wards. So it’s not the same.
