@mcuban The workers are the ones who don’t get bailed out for inflation and increases in taxes. I guess that is only reserved for the rich guys who can pay politicians to lower their taxes and demand refunds for tariffs that they passed the cost of on to consumers.

[Kar98k @SlyckDingo]

@mcuban Also while their corporations pay increasingly lower taxes and use loopholes. THEN when the economy isn’t doing so well the corporations boohoo to the gov, get bailed out (from tax revenue and debt increases) WHILE firing workers. Leaving the workers to hold bag for the bailout

@Dimessjayy I’m hoping he can do it again with the new coaching staff

[Kar98k @SlyckDingo]

@goJohnnyA @IAPolls2022 I agree. That is the point. What said is that this is positive when in fact, it is not.

[Kar98k @SlyckDingo]

@goJohnnyA @IAPolls2022 Correction: Not district. Meant to say sample.

[Kar98k @SlyckDingo]

@goJohnnyA @IAPolls2022 Not a positive poll. Polling was done in 15+ conservative district. What this shows is otherwise reliable GOP voters in this district are either not sold on Paxton, not intent on voting all together OR leaning toward the DEM. I do agree with you though that is a Paxton problem.

I needed to move a sofa.

I mentioned this to an American. He said, "You know anybody with a truck?"

I did not know anybody with a truck.

He looked at me with real concern. Not pity. Concern. The way you look at a man who has told you he does not have a name.

"You gotta know somebody with a truck."

I asked how one acquires such a person.

He said, "You just do."

This is the third time I have received that answer in this country. It is the answer to everything here. You just do. There is no process. There is only the eventual fact of having.

He said, "Ask Kevin."

I do not know a Kevin. He said Kevin like I should. He said it the way you say a shared uncle.

I met Kevin four days later. Kevin owns a truck. Kevin does not own a truck for himself. Nobody owns a truck for themselves. Kevin owns a truck for a fifteen mile radius.

Inside I said: THIS MAN HAS TAKEN A VOW. HE DID NOT ANNOUNCE IT. HE SIMPLY PURCHASED A BED AND ACCEPTED THE CONSEQUENCES.

Kevin arrived on Saturday. He brought the truck. He also brought a second man.

I had not asked for a second man.

The second man's name is Tony. Tony came because Kevin came. Tony did not know me. Tony did not ask what we were moving. Tony brought gloves.

They moved the sofa in eleven minutes.

I offered them money. Both of them laughed at the same time, which felt rehearsed and was not.

I asked what I owed them.

Kevin said, "Buy the pizza."

That is the price. That is the entire economy. The truck costs one pizza and the pizza is not negotiable and the pizza is also not expensive and everyone knows what size.

Inside I said: THE FEE IS FIXED ACROSS THE ENTIRE NATION AND WAS SET BY NO ONE.

We ate on the floor because the sofa was against the wall and none of us wanted to be the first to sit on it.

Tony told me his daughter plays soccer. I asked if she is good. He said, "She's aggressive."

I still think about that.

Three weeks later, Kevin texted me.

"You free Sunday? Helping Tony move a fridge."

He did not ask if I wanted to. He informed me of a fridge.

Inside I said: I HAVE BEEN CALLED UP. I DID NOT ENLIST. THE PAPERS WERE FILED ON MY BEHALF.

I went. I moved the fridge. I have no truck. I contributed only arms.

Afterward, a man I had never met asked me if I knew anybody with a truck.

I said, "Yeah, I got a guy."

I have a guy.

I am somebody's guy now, too. Tony has told two people about me.

He describes me as "the guy who's strong for his size."

I have never been prouder of a sentence in my life.

@JoyBoyTheories 🤔

[Megalithic Mysteries @Megalithic12000]

🚨 Japan placed stone warnings along its coastline centuries ago. In 2011, the ocean proved them right.

Scattered along Japan's coast are hundreds of ancient markers known as tsunami stones. Some are over 600 years old.

They carry one message: do not build below this point.

🔹Aneyoshi obeyed and survived 2011
🔹Some stones are over 600 years old
🔹Hundreds placed along Japan's coast
🔹Over 20,000 killed in the 2011 tsunami
🔹Towns below the markers were destroyed

One stone in Aneyoshi reads "Remember the calamity of the great tsunamis. Do not build any homes below this point."

The village obeyed.

When the 2011 tsunami hit, the water stopped just below the stone. Aneyoshi survived. Surrounding towns that built below the markers lost over 20,000 people.

A Tohoku University professor said "It takes about three generations for people to forget." Survivors carved warnings into stone because they knew memory fades.

Civilisation after civilisation did the same thing thousands of years earlier.

If the Japanese stones proved deadly accurate after 600 years, why do we assume the older warnings are just myths?

@AdamSchefter Daniel jones and his agents are unreal

@austinahlman @KyleKulinski Although I’m excited to see this, I’m still cautiously optimistic 😅 I just remember a few years ago in Maine when Sara Gideon had similar polling against Collins.

[Kar98k @SlyckDingo]

@KPMcClave @Patricia_Traina I get that. What I’m asking is the implication of this on the future.

[Kar98k @SlyckDingo]

@AkademiksTV Why they knees touching 😂😂
