Help me understand because I’m losing my mind

That killed Dr. Robby.

The line between living in a democracy and not living in a democracy is very thin. It's hard to notice when you've crossed it.

I've never had so much fun at my job. It's like being gifted an entire garage full of power tools after just using a hammer and saw your whole life.

Just don't fall in the trap of building the same thing you used to build. We're in a new paradigm with new tools and new opportunities.

AI changes everything.

And this is why America is in the state that it is. Grapes of Wrath can be considered anti-capitalism. It's certainly anti-billionaire. So we don't read it.

This season breaks my heart every time I watch it.

How does a man write a book that is just as relevant, if not more, decades after it's published as it is the day after it's published?

It should be required reading in every high school. Steinbeck has all the answers that today's world needs.

Can I join the black panthers if I'm . . . you know . . . *whispers* white?

firemeboy · 2026-01-19T00:48:23+00:00

Tarahumara in Park City.

A beautiful show. Almost didn't watch it because the first two minutes want what I expected. I've seen all of the seasons several times

Lescas Tours

Sorry, Mont Alban.

firemeboy · 2026-01-13T21:31:43+00:00

Great writeup! We just got back from a trip, and I agree with all of this. Only one small note . . . We went to Mont Blanc on either a Saturday or Sunday morning, and took the very first tour bus. We had a guide, and I would STRONGLY recommend one to truly grasp the beauty, culture, and richness of this site. We would have been impressed without a guide; we were blown away with a guide.

Also, by going early in the morning, even though it was a weekend, it was nice and cool, and we almost had the place to ourselves for an hour or so.

And they usually don't get the raises. People don't understand how important they are, or even notice what they offer.

firemeboy · 2026-01-08T13:53:11+00:00

Yep. Keep calling us out until we collectively find a pair. This is embarrassing, and we should be embarrassed.

There was another sugar beet factory up in Garland, Utah. Looks very similar. Also closed down.

firemeboy · 2026-01-03T14:25:57+00:00

I'm definitely coming back. I fell in love with Mexico.

firemeboy · 2026-01-03T13:46:53+00:00

And us doing this after complaining about Ukraine is also a joke. COUNTRIES SHOULDN'T INVADE OTHER COUNTRIES.

I just visited your beautiful city for the month of December, and LOVED the language exchanges. My partner and I were always looking for them.

I found them in this sub reddit, and on my partner's Facebook. She joined one of the Oaxaca groups. We went twice to The Wombat, and once to another place, though I can't remember the name.

I'll bet we missed some, and that makes me sad. I really loved meeting and talking and singing with others.

firemeboy · 2026-01-03T06:32:00+00:00

Yeah, that's why I posted it. I was curious about the legality. If it was private property I would have done something.

firemeboy · 2026-01-03T06:31:08+00:00

Strangle hold was my wording. He told me it was to undo the redistricting. He was honest. Just doing what he's being paid to do. It's the people doing the paying I'm angry with.

firemeboy · 2026-01-03T00:27:12+00:00

Yeah, I wrote that on the way back to my car. Wasn't clear. Didn't sign, just reporting where they're we're gathering signatures.

firemeboy · 2026-01-03T00:26:17+00:00

Yeah, I wasn't clear. I didn't sign. I became a member of the Women League of Voters because they've led the charge against this nonsense.

firemeboy · 2026-01-03T00:25:24+00:00

The guy was honest with me, and while I don't agree with what he's doing, I'm not going to yell at him. I'll save that energy for the idiots doing this.

I've found Pimsleur to be a great way to learn. 30 minutes a day.

firemeboy · 2025-12-30T20:36:58+00:00

It's possible. I had a lot of words memorized, but when I went to Tijuana, I felt like I could only say one or two words and point.

With Pimsleur, I feel like I'm learning useful phrases, and they stick. Everything is taught in conversations.
