  • Nah, the real message is some people wake up at a reasonable time, get a tasty breakfast in peace, have access to public transportation, then get to spend time in nature with their friends, no litter or pollution in sight. And somehow they still think life is shit and find a reason to complain instead of appreciating the gifts life has given them.











  • I did this same thing when I was in Austin. When the cost of a decent drink at the bar you’re going to is the same price, it’s not too much to pay for carsitying services. But tbh I paid him half out of charity and half because I can’t be sure he would slash my tires for NOT giving him the money. He knows where my car is and knows I’m going to be away for a while. Better safe than sorry.



  • But we also sell a lot of that military equipment to allies, making everyone stronger and recouping some of that spending at the same time.

    A quick search shows about $300b in sales last year with a spending budget about $800b. Of course, that depends on whether Ukraine survives to be able to repay its debt. But even if it can’t, all the military spending goes to US owned companies or citizens (our soldiers) which circulates in the domestic economy.
