  • As a Boomer myself, I think this is it pretty much.

    Had many arguments with my wife trying to point this out…Trump is pretty much the American Classic Liberal in every meaningful way in what he does, but is fairly unfiltered in the roiling sewer of liberal racism and classism that always lurks underneath the surface of any servant of American Capitalism out here in the wild whenever he opens his mouth. Put him in a powdered wig and he fits right in with the founding fathers.

    It’s the sympathetic resonance that liberals feel when subconsciously agreeing with what Trump says that really pisses them off…that ol’ cognitive dissonance that he weaves so well



  • I recently was diagnosed with sudden onset rheumatoid arthritis right before my 60th birthday. I live in a senior mobile home park with my wife who recently had a stroke.

    I need to weed and clean up my yard for inspection, but I’ve lost over 50 pounds of muscle mass and I can’t bend down to pull weeds. I did manage an agonizing session of trimmin my rosemary shrub, but man…this chronic pain and stiffness is all so new to me I really have to manage my self better lol

    I lost my job and we live on my wife’s social security.

    I’ve been agonizing over how I’m going to clean up my yard before yearly inspection since my savings are almost gone.

    I went to the WA unclaimed site I searched for and I am owed over 200 dollars! Now I can hire some people to clean up the yard a little and I have you to thank OP.

    I am so happy and grateful. :D







  • Aw man, you had me going until you said “kinda healthy”. Oh well, I guess I got nothing then.

    Well, maybe one.

    Shred 1/2 head of cabbage (head or napa).

    Crush up one package of Ramen noodles in the package, careful not to get too enthusiastic or it’ll explode all over the counter. Empty it into a small fry pan with a TBSP oil ( I like to add sesame oil as well) and fry them gently while stirring till golden brown. Let them cool a bit.

    Make a dressing of like 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup vinegar (whatever kind you have), 2TBSP sugar and 2TBSP sesame oil (optional).

    Toss the cabbage with the dressing and then dump the fried ramen on top.

    I can literally eat an half head of cabbage at one sitting with this recipe, no lie.
