I have asthma and this smoke season has been miserable in the eastern PNW

Yeah, it's usually assholes

Moving from Texas to Washington state, I was really shocked how they viewed people who grew up poor in red states. Didn't matter the political affiliation.

Then they go and bitch about the homeless coming in, or God forbid you made it and landed a good job, then it's your fault for raising prices.

The JD Vance room with the wood panels really sold what they think of the rural poor.

Couch joke was the only saving grace.

You can just tell this shit is a game to them.

Dude doesn't have that long to live. I shit you not. He is mixing his chemo drugs with Ivermectin.

Ben Garrison and myself both spent a lot of time in San Angelo, TX. Their water is absolutely fucking putrid; there are no words. Second only to Nueces county in Texas (which was a Koch Brothers playground) I could totally see it giving people literal brainworms and Ben Garrison is a great example of that theory. He absolutely drank that tap water.

Sorry for going off topic on shitty water; even my personal brainworms hates it.

2007 would be a better cutoff.

I cannot stand CD players. My iPod touch was a god send. Also Netflix just started and didn't suck yet.

Yeah I really only see that talk on /pol/ and other far right spaces. It's definitely not the best term.

The fact they moved their management to Chicago to avoid their union workers and engineers was so cowardly.

What makes it even better is that Chicago was chosen because it's a big home for MBAs and management consultants.

Fuck them.

I talked to one of my former colleagues who helped me get this job today. She is Palestinian and it was the most heartbreaking, soul crushing, gut wrenching conversation I have ever had.

It was one of those serious soul searching conversations. I got a lot to think about tonight.

My boomer dad sent my grandpa who fought the Nazis to a nursing home after he told him for decades not to.

Died a week later in spite.
