Interestingly, though...it's much easier to get pregnant and stay pregnant in your late 30s or ESPECIALLY in your 40s if you've already carried one pregnancy all the way through to a live birth
thats because the woman's body stops shitting out eggs if the woman is knocked up, a woman that's already gotten pregnant has an extra year of eggs saved up.
834 billion to give 5k to every tax payer. The latter is more than twice than what was given to Ukraine, but would benefit the American people infinitely more, no?
the other part, and is why economists have proposed just throwing money out of a helicopter is that most people, especially lower on the economic totem pole when given money will spend that money, boosting the economy, and especially once you figuring out the immigrant stuff, that 5k basically will end up coming back to the government in no time. its why the economy recovered so quickly from covid, people paid shit off and took vacations and 90% of people did something with it that meant it went back into the government overall through taxes.
 
Be honest why do you hate European countries so much ? The majority of Americans are European and even if you are not as an American Europe is your spiritual motherland
Yeah and we looked around and said, “This fucking sucks, let’s get out of here!” Can you launch cars off cliffs as entertainment? Can you call your faggot neighbor a faggot without the Stasi showing up in the middle of the night to arrest you? Can you decide to homeschool your children without government interference?

I don’t have the energy to hate Europe. It is deeply irrelevant to my life. I reject the idea that my tax dollars should be funneled towards gay European conflicts OR making more gay Europeans.

Europeans disdain me as a gun-toting redneck retard and I am perfectly fine with that so long as the big red spigot shooting my gun-toting redneck retard money into their irrelevant ass continent gets shut off. Fix your own goddamn problems if you’re so much more civilized and enlightened.

I don’t need 5k in Trumpbux. If there is a surplus after he’s done gutting the government, I would argue that it should be invested back into the country in ways that will benefit us for generations to come.

ETA: Perhaps that is optimistic of me but everything in the last few weeks has me feeling like maybe it’s alright to be optimistic again.
 
Still seeing liberals do the "Have fun with egg prices skyrocketing" argument. Question here, did Kamala have any fucking plans to drop egg prices? These guys act like Kamala's plan to grant mass amnesty and flood the country with more 3rd world migrants will some how drop egg prices. She literally had no plans to drop egg prices and yet liberals are acting like we'd have cheap eggs if she was president.
Maybe she was going to allow illegal poultry in under an amnesty?
 
I don't hate the Russians enough to do that to them.
I fucking loved Russians until they invaded Ukraine. And even then, the problem was that they announced bff status with China right before they pulled the trigger.

And I get all the nuance. I know about Russian expansion in Georgia and other former Soviet states, and I know about US geopolitical “bearbaiting” and Soros funded faggotry..

It’s not that I blame them more than half, but I was sorely disappointed. The US intelligence community is fucking retarded for ever failing to weigh the cost benefit curve of alienating Russia until they went team China. It left us needing fucking India
 
NASA's TikTok influencers are very worried about potential cuts:

Budget cuts (relatively to the insanely high Apollo spending) don't explain why they went backwards:

Someone points out that they've wasted their budget pushing conspiracy theories instead of actual space programs:

The stranded astronauts can't use that capsule because it's unsafe:

NASA may not be able to build rockets anymore, but that's because they do SCIENCE instead:

Worried that Trump's NASA will actually work on its charter of advancing human spaceflight:

NASA's strength is SCIENCE, not engineering:

How many stars has NASA sent spacecraft to if "stars/galaxies/planets" are their speciality?

She believes that there is zero bloat at NASA:

Yet she posts proof that they plenty of bloat to cut:

Obama cut funding to NASA like year 1 of his presidency, and thats when it started going downhill.

I still love NASA, and the workers in the mission control for keeping the ISS working, but theyve been a shell of themselves awhile now, cut the funding, keep the good ones, then give funding back, should give it a nice boost to going back to what it originally was

NASA should be consolidated into the space force
 
I know there's a lot of talk about wanting to ban junk food and soda from being able to be purchased on EBT. The problem with regulating what the peasant class can and can't do is that when does it stop? First they'll say you can't buy shit with EBT. Then they'll start regulating what you can and can't use Social Security funds for.

Look. I get the idea of wanting to make food and other shit healthy again, but shotgunning and going all militant about it is a good way to get the people (who were initially on your side) pissed off all over again. In the end, no one will do shit. You need to give people a choice. You can give them the information, it's up to them exercising their own free will over it. You can't just force someone into a new way of living and expect it to go well. See what happened with Prohibition?
I think there's some middle ground possible between "poor people should only eat flavorless gruel" and "poor people should be able to spend all their gibs on soda". Most places already prevent EBT from being spent on shit like precooked food at the gas station (so no wings or whatever)

Honestly, I'm more tolerant of soda being prevented from being purchased on EBT, but "JUNK FOOD" is such a subjective term that could apply to literally anything. After all, someone could consider Bologna as "junk food".

I mean, I literally miss being eligible for food stamps by one fucking dollar per hour, so if I’m paying taxes and shit to fund people who make one fucking dollar an hour less than me, yeah, I’d ask that they at least go to the supermarket and get a reasonable value with my money instead of blowing it on toxic shit

In other news there is a dang lion on the loose in a California neighborhood

somehow im sure this is also trumps fault
It’s a mountain lion. They are native to California. I have a female mountain lion who lives in my area and feeds on the deer population. Every once in a while, we’ll see her on game cameras, sometimes with a cub.

It’s weird that this one is in town and I’m sure it doesn’t want to be. I hope they can relocate it without it needing to be euthanized.
