Unfortunately I'm Texan, lmao. That'd only make it worse.

That's an interesting rabbit hole. I dunno if anyone has actually studied the rock formations (there's another one nearby that looks vaguely like a woman's statue) to see if there's possibly anything to the theory, but I can absolutely see why someone would be misled into believing it was artificial. I had to actually look it up to figure out what was so insane about it.

Sadly a lot of the people who will get fucked the hardest, like myself, are also the kinda people who agree with the frustrations of allied and partnered nations, yet will get judged based on the behavior of magats instead of the fact that we don't want any of the shit the US is doing but can't change anything.

Thanks for the warning!

I dunno what El Arroyo is, but if this is an attempt at guerilla marketing (because I keep seeing them pop up) then it's working. I'm gonna have to check them out next time I'm in Austin.

Wait, why are there so many 196's? I understood the original split, but why is there a furry one now, lol?

I watched someone beat an opossum to death with a shovel as a child. They told me that's just what you did with opossums and couldn't understand why I was crying. It was just minding its own business and they decided they had to kill it for some reason. The sound and image is seared into my head and I'll never get it out. I dunno if they ever got what was coming to them, but I hope they did.

I had a group of """friends""" for slightly over a decade who were very abusive towards me. I was too lonely and desperate to walk away, and they knew that, so I endured the emotional abuse until they finally decided they were bored with me. I probably won't ever fully heal from that. Last I heard the group had broken apart, but afaik that was all that happened.

At least I have better people in my life now, but the events of the latter mean I'm always on edge and just waiting for the other shoe to drop. I'm waiting for someone to pull the rug out from under me and show me they were just getting me attached so they could abuse me too.

Damn, what a fucking bigot.

Got any advice for developing one?

If you don't have the nerve to hold a stock for 30 years through ups, downs, crashes and rebuilds, there's a thing called a high yield savings account that may better fit your current stage of life better and risk tolerance.

While this is usually true, I personally am discovering that I may need to liquidate all my stocks to pay for an escape plan. If the stock market crashes, that will change what I can do to escape.

As an American stuck in a red state, I support this. However I'm also concerned this could have the unintended side effect of trump forcefully taking over blue states and moving industry there. Or else destroying industry in blue states to force countries to buy from red states.
