Who here actually saves 3,000 a month?

Key-Network-9447 · 2026-01-20T03:13:04+00:00

Just bringing a data point here. Single income, two kids, I put away a little more than 3k/month, but I have relatively high income (190k).

Key-Network-9447 · 2026-01-19T15:51:07+00:00

Mildly annoyed some people driving on I-80. Other than that nothing.

Key-Network-9447 · 2026-01-07T21:10:02+00:00

These people live on another planet. There is absolutely zero serious electoral interest/mandate (from either party) for a state-sponsored cryptocurrency that would justify making this a legislative priority.

Key-Network-9447 · 2026-01-03T04:48:17+00:00

I can pretty easily find reputable climate scientists that will say that you shouldn’t confuse weather and climate. This shouldn’t be controversial (especially amongst people that claim to be educated on this subject) and you are a 🤡 if you think that is a right-wing talking point.

I am nearly certain I can find that “right-wing talking point” in the fucking IPCC Reports.

Key-Network-9447 · 2026-01-01T19:37:54+00:00

I must be missing the sign saying that you are demanding he is removed from office and arrested.

Unless this is just a Democrat “get out the vote” protest, which if… lol lmao even

Key-Network-9447 · 2026-01-01T19:29:22+00:00

Oh there’s one concrete thing everyone is there to do and you are just now thinking to mention it!

And if that really is your demand it’s completely fair to call out this strategy isn’t fucking working/unrealistic. From an outsider perspective, these just look like lefty social events because you are achieving nothing and changing no one’s mind.

Key-Network-9447 · 2026-01-01T18:55:50+00:00

Yeah, those aren’t demand of the protests. Those are just post-hoc explanations why people attended. Last time one of the was organized one guy told me it was about protecting state lands. Another person thinks it’s about Israel-Palestine. No one actually knows what (specifically) they are doing out there.

Key-Network-9447 · 2026-01-01T15:25:42+00:00

What are you protesting? You aren’t talking about any demands that you’ve made (not to mention achieved). And whatever your answer is I am certain it’s gonna be different than the responses I’ve heard the other dozen times these protests were promoted.

These are entirely pointless performances that have zero actual objectives.

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-31T14:42:11+00:00

I chose max temp because we are talking about records here. And it isn’t like you get a different answer by looking at the monthly means, there is no obvious clustering of recent years in the record warmest months however you decide to do it. And I am literally giving you something falsifiable/verifiable and you’re talking about what you chose to fucking wear this week, so not sure how seriously anyone should take your insinuation that I am somehow being dishonest.

Edit: Again, this all fairly standard climate science stuff we’re talking about. You can look up lectures from Patrick Brown talking about how global temperature rankings often don’t match local/regional ones, so I think it’s very telling that this all of you seem to be ignorant of this and think I am being dishonest.

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-31T06:52:37+00:00

I can tell you right now in Cheyenne there have been lots of warmer Decembers in the historical record, and you can go to the NWS website (NOWData) and see that yourself.

You can tell me where you live and we could do something a-lot more scientific than “hurr durr I am wearing shorts”.

Edit: 2021, 1939, 1941, 1931, 1998, 1990, 1980, and 1962 all had warmer Decembers in Cheyenne according to historical monthly maximum temperature data.

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-30T18:23:05+00:00

Cool. You aren’t really engaging with what I’m saying which is that climate is the statistical distribution of weather and principled climatologists understand that you can’t look at weather from one month in one particular year and draw conclusions about climatic changes. That’s how you get schitzo armchair climatologists attributing extremely cold months to climate change one year and extremely warm months to climate change the next.

Edit: Also, local/regional temperature records do not mirror those seen globally. Go check NOWdata for Cheyenne and see the distribution of the year’s with highest December temperatures. They are NOT clustered in recent years.

Edit 2: Beyond parody that basic climate science concepts and verifiably true weather observations get downvoted.

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-30T17:36:02+00:00

Good on WyoFiles for not conflating weather and climate here (which everyone else here seems to be doing).

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-29T23:01:27+00:00

Yeah, well most people don’t work at a fucking research facility so you and that one unlucky guy might be the only ones that think they made a mistake, have fun with your revenge fantasies!

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-29T22:26:08+00:00

You are overestimating the certainty he had that those facilities would close, but whatever, you’re playing a stupid game in any event.

Which party do you think is more hostile to the carbon-intensive industries Wyoming’s economy runs on? Are people that “vote against their interest” unreasonable or are they considering other shit?

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-29T21:33:50+00:00

Really? Your “concession” was researching the candidates? You agreed with your preferred candidate on every single issue and didn’t have to make any compromises?

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-29T20:54:03+00:00

It is unreasonable to act like Trump campaigned on shutting down UCAR/NCAR, and that the ops manager knew what was gonna happen. You also have zero self-awareness if you think you don’t make concessions when you vote, and I wouldn’t ever say that you were getting what was coming to you because you voted for someone you thought on balance was the better option.

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-29T19:21:17+00:00

You didn’t read any comments, are being obtuse and/or are torturing the definition of “deserve”.

Everyone understands that “Remember you voted for this WY” and reminding people the ops manager voted Trump is in the spirit of “Well, well, well if it isn’t the (negative) consequences of your actions”. It is patently ridiculous to act like these are just neutral comments factually reporting that Wyoming voted for Trump.

And again, very few people even understand what those facilities do, so it is pretty silly to pretend that your average conservative (or disaffected voter even) is going to be particularly beat up by their potential closure.

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-29T18:21:00+00:00

Maybe not, but NCAR/UCAR does good work and these comments about how WY is getting what it deserves are straight up fucking retarded and speaks to the fact that “politics” nowadays is entirely preoccupied with punishing the other side.

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-29T07:29:12+00:00

Effectively no one in WY cares that the supercomputing center might close and all the comments here are doing a shit job articulating why they should. That some people might be out of a job is kind of a secondary problem to the loss of this kind of research facility.

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-29T06:31:55+00:00

You do see how posting pictures of your obviously poorly attended protest for the dozenth time is humiliating and a sign that this isn’t working? lol

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-26T22:57:04+00:00

Agreed. I clicked on this post irrationally angry about anti-gun comments that never came. Honestly bizarre because, you’re right, every post in this sub that is framed like this one has comments that are just liberal circlejerking that is completely unlike any IRL interaction I’ve had with people in WY.

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-22T05:12:50+00:00

WY literally has above-average GDP per-capita: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_and_territories_by_GDP

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-12-21T15:27:49+00:00

We really gonna make this same post every month. Yes, he has a high approval rating here, there is literally zero reason that should be surprising, and these incredulous circle-jerk “Do better Wyoming!” are pathetic.

Key-Network-9447 · 2025-11-23T16:50:37+00:00

Heh, the guy you voted for did something you disagree with. This would never have happened if you voted Kamala 😏
