@adam_on_line Can't say. I don't encounter many "ordinary Americans" in my day. Ask me in August ;-).

[Jason W. Brunken @jwbrunken]

@adam_on_line Just like with the COVID BS, the reality that Biden is being manipulated by other forces behind the scenes is becoming common knowledge. This summer more and more people will have this conversation with their families. With TDS still raging, will it matter?

[Jason W. Brunken @jwbrunken]

@adam_on_line I don't see enough evidence to argue with you there.

[Jason W. Brunken @jwbrunken]

@adam_on_line Actually, as I live outside the US, I can attest that their contempt is not limited to just Americans, and their influence stretches far beyond US borders.

[Jason W. Brunken @jwbrunken]

@adam_on_line They hate us. If one thing has been clear since 2020 it is that those who pull the strings of power at the upper echelons of both parties hate regular Americans. They want us poor, dumb, and sick. If this election doesn't wake people up to that fact, nothing will.

@trickytaipei Working. Subsidies are not 100% of salary, nor should they be.

@adam_on_line One of the saddest things about this post-Covid hellscape that we all now inhabit is that these goblins don't even need to crawl out of their underground lairs and drag themselves to a TV studio to lie and spill bullshit anymore. I have no respect for webcam guy with background.

@trickytaipei Major brands have sales reps that are responsible for getting shelf space in supermarkets. Whomever is Nivea's guy/gal is killing it. The Kellogg's rep is really good at his job, too. Poor local cereal brand, Cerear, is constantly edged out, (gone from Carrefour).

@SturmDon @mcleod @ideaillinois @MrsCford_tweets @Scandela9 @WickedEdTech @Andrea_Trudeau @mariagalanis @JoyKirr @Resonance_Ed @FeketeEDU @ShawnMcCusker Ban them. Smartphones should be illegal for kids 18 and under. They are as addictive as any narcotic and they have an equally negative impact on mental development.

[Jason W. Brunken @jwbrunken]

@TheFigen_ All I can think about is how each and every one of those fancy parts can break and needs to be cleaned carefully. Simpler is better.

[Jason W. Brunken @jwbrunken]

@trickytaipei You're assuming the government actually wants people to be financially literate. Debt-based economies don't run well when that's the case. It's not laziness that keeps financial education out of the curriculum.

[Jason W. Brunken @jwbrunken]

@adam_on_line Well, more people realize this in 2023 than they did in 2020, that's for damn sure.

[Jason W. Brunken @jwbrunken]

@trickytaipei No. That's just opening up a black hole of corruption through which all our tax dollars fly away and education quality remains unchanged for all the money poured into making "modern" work and learning "spaces".

[Jason W. Brunken @jwbrunken]

@adam_on_line You need a trip to Taiwan is what you need ;-).

[Jason W. Brunken @jwbrunken]

@_willcompton What did the NCAA do to Penn State, again? Oh yeah, basically nothing. You really think they will get Michigan for this

[Jason W. Brunken @jwbrunken]

@donovan_smith Not what I've heard from my Taiwanese circle, but you're the expert for sure (not being sarcastic). I'll believe the KMT has something figured out when they win the presidency again. Can't believe the DPP may still win this election with inflation over 10%.

[Jason W. Brunken @jwbrunken]

@adam_on_line I think I threw up in my mouth a little when I read that.
