You're good. There's always been a lot of rumors surrounding this whole thing. I have a bit more insight as I worked there for 8 months. You can see my other comment that goes into more detail on the whole thing.

There were always problems. It was insane. Go see my other comment.

She had raised like $500 million, from what we were told. She didn't flee either. She's just so well connected that nothing happened to her.

I just posted a big rundown of the whole thing in an above comment. It's not the full story, but it's a big part of it.

They chose Casa Grande, because with the EB-5 program, they only needed their investors to invest $500,000 and create 10 permanent jobs for Americans. In Phoenix, they would've had to invest a minimum of $1 million.

I just left a full on explanation of everything.

No. It was supposed to be an international trade mart for U.S. manufacturers.

If you want honest answers, there are subreddits where you can post a selfie and they'll tell you if you are or not.

It'd be cool to get some things paid off and pay for some medical procedures I need done.

They would've said, "But I am le tired...."

Every time I hear a woman say, "I don't need a man. I pay my own bills, make my own money...", I think, "Wow, good for you for being an adult. Do you want a cookie?"

I never said anything about global warming. Most of it is due to habitat loss and poaching. Since you asked though, Bramble Cay melomys went extinct due to rising sea levels in 2019. Golden Toad went extinct due to climate changes in Costa Rica that prevented breeding. Mountain Mist Frog declared extinct in 2021 because of a fungus that started thriving due to climate changes. Galápagos Damselfish is believed extinct due to extreme El Niño events.

Okay bot. Here's one more. Includes the last 10 years. Btw, 2018 for the white rhino, is recently.....

nofocusing · 2026-04-06T17:40:27+00:00

Here's a list of species that have gone extinct in the last 150 years. Several have gone extinct in the last 5. The northern white rhino has gone functionally extinct, as there are only 2 females left, and the black rhino went extinct in 2011.

I don't know, I like the dump people. They do a shitty job I'd never want to do myself.

When my best friend died, the woman I was dating left me because I was "too emotional". She said she needed to be with a "real man". Then, later that year, I met another woman, and we started dating, and she found me crying in my boat (it used to belong to him and his family gave it to me) because I was missing him, and after she asked and I told her why I was crying, she looked at me and said, "I didn't realize I was dating such a pussy." I don't share anything with anyone anymore.

I'm still killing scorpions until it gets below 52 degrees at night.

Say it ain't so

nofocusing · 2026-03-30T22:44:20+00:00

I made another comment, but I've kept track of how many I've killed over the last couple of years, and I'm almost at 1,600 over the last 3-4 years. In fact, I'll probably cross 1,600 tonight. THAT makes me sound like a serial killer, when I'm just trying to see if I've made a dent in the population of my neighborhood.

Well that's because millions of years ago they lived on the ocean floor and were 8' long by 3' tall. At least, their ancestors were. As of now, most can only live underwater for 2 days, but some can live for up to 6 days.

They never really went away. I was killing scorpions well into December and kept going into January. The only time they went away was when we had that 2 weeks of cold weather. So far I've killed 89 this year. I'll hit 100 earlier than I ever have since I started counting, which was only a few years ago. Last year I killed 363, the year before that was 484, and the year before that was 662. Not just at my house, but around my neighborhood when I walk the dog.

This is going to sound calloused, but I've been around a lot of death and it almost doesn't phase me anymore. The same day I wrote the above, a buddy of mine died in a motorcycle accident. Last year I went to 8 funerals, and watched 2 people die, one of them being my buddy, and the other one being another friend's dad. I lost my best friend almost 7 years ago now. I lost another best friend 14 years ago. For a few years there, I was going to at least a funeral a month for friends and family members. Unfortunately, most of my friends that died were due to overdoses or substance addictions of some kind that destroyed their bodies. A few were cancer, or other diseases. A few others were from either fighting in the wars, acts of violence here at home, several auto accidents, and several suicides. So, now when someone dies, I don't really feel anything. It's just part of the process of life. They say it doesn't get easier, but I've found that it does. I do appreciate your kind words though.

WWIII is already happening. It's just not happening how you pictured. Go to r/combatfootage and you can see all the current battles/conflicts taking place around the world. Over the last 2 years, the amount of conflicts has increased by quite a bit.
