I sincerely hope all this organizing you are clearing doing is going to help. I will pitch in as I can, truly. You can insult me as much as you want, and if you are successful, I will be the first to admit I was wrong. However, from where I am standing we are much more worse off. Maybe that is what you want. It is clear to me, that a lot more people are going to die and even more are going to suffer.

I'm not on any high horse. I'm down here covered in filth. I am not proud to have voted for Kamala, but I'm frustrated that she lost. I'd much rather be getting lectured at that she isn't doing enough, and no one be talking about USAID, and trans people, women, etc all fearing for their future.

Life is complicated. We have to tell ourselves stories to get through it. I viewed voting like a trolly problem. I chose Kamala because I viewed it as the least harm I could do in that situation. You did what I view as refusing to pull the lever. Both situations result in harm. I am not ok with that harm either way, and I recognize my culpability. Do you recognize yours?

There is a guy in power right now giving Nazi salutes, stripping lifesaving aid from tens of millions of people, advocating for ethnic cleansing, and a whole lot more. I voted against that and I'm the Nazi? Fuck you.

I am not pretending Democrats weren't peices of shit. I have no delusions about that. I am operating under the reality that Americans, the people in Gaza, and most of the world, is in a much worse situation right now because you decided to take a moral stand against the person more likely to help, to be influenced by protests.

Are you protesting what is happening right now? I know a lot of vulnerable people can't.

Bumbling around in the dark killing creatures due to incompetence.

I'm listening to some of the claims he's making in here and it's ridiculous. "Oh it's such a fresh take"... Naw man, that's Djent.

Sure glad we didn't elect Kamala.

Move where? With what resources?

40% of people live near a coast. In the US that represents 10% of the land area.

Altadena is not living in the woods. There is not a Forrest there, yet it still burnt down.

There are blizzards in the south currently.

I don't know the stats, but I'm guessing we are going to see more and bigger tornadoes in the middle states.

Soon the only place people will live are in Caves of Steel

Go to the wedding. That is a really big deal. After that don't engage with him on politics. Maybe don't engage at all. Show up for birthdays and maybe a holiday or two. Do the 'quiet quitting' of family interaction. You aren't going to change their mind. I've been trying for 20+ years and it's just gotten worse.

That seems like an incredibly dumb idea.

 

My oldest just turned 9 and is interested in archery. I managed to find my Bear Cub compound bow from storage but it's been a long time since I did anything like this.

Looking for resources first priority is teaching safety, second would be pointers for technique. Any and all advice is appreciated.

 

The Wikipedia entry has weird west in it, so I guess so.

Such a good show. Loved Bruce in it.
