Disagree that it is “just” another result of identity politics.

I’m 35. I have my own growing business now after getting completely fucked by the system and the Boomers in charge of the aspects of the system that screwed me over.

I love my boomer parents but they are the archetypical boomers. So are all of their friends.

There are some things I like about Baby Culture but much of it I DESPISE. Most relevant to me now is is the infuriating way they conduct business. There is a ridiculous emphasis on pretending to work and conformity to stupid arbitrary policies and customs over results.

I despise liberalism but there is a lot of “tradition” the Baby Boomers as a general group embody that I am happily tossing away.

I ponder often whether leftists are stupid or evil. The answer is both. Always both.

Sometimes they are more stupid than evil and sometimes more evil than stupid but they are defined by both traits.

It’s quite fortunate for us that leftists are stupid bc it limits the effectiveness of their evil.

How can you get bored at Menard’s?

I like to sometimes go there without intent to purchase something specific and peruse the products to see if anything there would be useful in the future for me.

I learn something everytime I do this

Liberals can’t read between the lines. This article is written in perfect liberalese and it’s exactly what they want to hear. It’s patting each liberal on the back and loading them up with talking points and covering up any doubts they might be having.

I can’t figure out if liberals genuinely can’t process the concept of hypocrisy and recognize their own hypocrisy or if they get off on it.

It’s probably a mix of both. I can’t figure out if leftists are more stupid than evil or more evil than stupid.

Could Djok beat her 0-0? Definitely. If I had to bet on a score id put it on Djok. But I would be nervous.

Serena is absolutely capable of blasting 4 unreturnable first serves in a game. And she is strong enough to put the ball away if Djok managed to get a racquet on a serve that would ace a woman.

She wouldn’t have to hit 4 consecutive aces. Just win 4 service points in a game where Djok only wins 2.

That’s the nature of tennis. The server has an incredible advantage over the receiver. Djok is one of the greatest returners of all time but Serena is also the greatest female server of all time.

If Serena painted the lines on a few first serves Djok would be limited on what he could do because he can only respond to the serve she puts in play. It’s similar to running the table in billiards.

I’d put my life savings on Djok playing with 100% seriousness beating Serena easily in straight sets. But I’d be shitting my pants if the bet was on a double bagel bc of her serve

That’s a bad bet. Winning 48 straight points is extremely difficult under normal rules regardless of skill discrepancy.

I’d be nervous even betting on him winning 6-0,6-0. Would he beat her ass? 100 matches out of 100 matches. Could Serena manage to cobble together 2 or 3 strong first serves and slap a few groundstrokes to force an error or two to hold serve once? Yep.

Golden sets are one of the rarest feats in sports. There have only been like a dozen in 120 years of pro tennis.

That’s more a testament though to how difficult perfection in tennis is tho than gender athletic differences ha

I like being sober too. Sobriety is not some sacred state of being. That’s essentially just the naturalistic fallacy.

And I like myself. A lot actually.

I have asked myself these questions. The longest stretch I’ve been sober as an adult was when I got railroaded out of dental school in the final semester and lost ‘everything.’ I spent like 8 weeks ? (who knows) in bed. Too numb to even get high. Or kill myself. Was a living corpse.

Decided I was done groveling to the system and depending on their permission to work and was going to live on my own terms. And I have.

The dark cloud of depression and anxiety that loomed over me thoughout my 20s is gone. I don’t dread each day any longer. I only set an alarm maybe once a month now. I don’t have to bc I wake up each early morning naturally with a purpose.

I’ve got 5 people working for me and shit to do. And I prefer to do that high. Not too high tho bc then it comes inhibitory. It’s a balance.

I don’t like doing too much k. K-hole isnt fun for me and it’s a waste. Just little tiny bumps of like 2-5 mg throughout the day. It’s nice.

Rigjt now my primary income is cosching and consulting bodybuilding. But for the last two years I’ve been breeding aquarium shrimp and plants and some fish. Outgrew the basement and transitioning and upgrading to thr garage. Launching that online business very soon as my stocks are finally large enough to sell.

I do all kinds of shit though and it’s open ended. I built a nice woodshop this year and seeing where that goes. I’ve got an apprentice working part time and we are tackling new projects each week. Original plan was to build custom aquarium stands and racks for customers. But I’ve been investing in equipment and machinery. I needed a way to make better labels and that printer has turned out to be helpful bc friends also have wanted better labels too. Even the tee shirt press I bought to make my own shirts has generated some income.

I’m on a mission. I don’t know what the mission is exactly yet but im on it.

Sounds like you have a similar spirit as me with your hydroponics operation.

I’ve been microdosing ketamine, acid, shrooms, and sometimes Mdma for well over a year straight. Near daily. It’s been by far the most productive and best year of my life.

Not trying to suck my own dick but this is true- when businesses all around me were closing down I was growing. And hiring. I was frustrated for awhile bc I couldn’t get enough people working for me during the height of the hysteria to keep up bc they wanted to stay home and not work and collect unemployment. And I pay well. 🤦‍♂️

Even now most weeks I’m short handed. In an average week I need 10-11 shifts and i can only get my team to work about 8.

Rigjt now one of my girls is supposed to be here but her boyfriend apparently surprised her with plans for their 2nd anniversary. I didn’t realize people celebrated “anniversaries” for dating but whatever. I went to the hardware store for supplies instead.

Side note- the hardware store is always an interesting place to be if I accidentally take a bit too much of a psychotropic lol

I love microdosing drugs. And sometimes macrodosing. Never has any drug in any dose turned me into a liberal faget.

Let’s not blame drugs here please. This is a result of Dorsey thinking being liberal makes him look and sound smart.

Killing a baby in a pregnant woman and killing a pregnant woman and cutting out the baby is potato-potato to liberals.

It’s the fault of men obviously.

I thought I responded already.

I STRONGLY support P/F system for this exact reason. Unfortunately my dental school was graded. And it was chaos bc there was double jeopardy with some remediate courses having a highest potential grade of a ‘C.’ Which is below the 2.5 cumulative needed to graduate. So if you fail the first time and get a D or an E and then pass the remediation with a perfect score you are punished with a second grade failing pulling your gpa further below the graduation cutoff.

That’s how those motherfucking crooks got me. On a gpa technicality. I passed every single graded course but I was below 0.02 below the minimum cumulative so I was mathematically unable to get it higher. Final semester. They stole the $400k from me and gave me the boot.

I said med school for brevity but it was podiatry school. I think it may have been the last one in the country still graded. But it was last minute snd my only option. And it was the same bullshit as dental school all over again with the secret old exams passed around. Which of course I wasn’t privy to.

And yes I love how old board exams are available to study from. I crushed every standardized board exam I took on first try bc of the fairness of them.

I’m glad the allopathic schools aren’t fucked like the dental schools.

Lost out on too many relationships?

Except for a few stragglers I argue with sometimes on FB I have long purged all of the toxic liberals out of my life. There are zero in my daily real life. And I’ve never had more friends nor better friendships.

You know how many of the liberals I miss that I naively thought at one time were my friends? Zero. My extended family I have with liberal tendencies is now well trained to suppress any liberal faggoty around me so our sporadic time together is enjoyable.

We outnumber liberals. They are just far louder and more belligerent and more (passive) aggressive. Fuck them. All of them. Do not let them control your reputation or esteem or anything else.

“There's legit no incentive to cheat because we're P/F. “

That’s how every school should be and I was in one of the last hold outs. I said med school for brevity but I went to podiatry school and it was still graded. So was dental school. Was awful.

I’m very jealous of how your med school program was set up.

I crushed my dental boards alongside ecery standardized test I ever took bc of practice exams. The problem in my programs was that they were kept secret and not open to every student. There should be 20 years of old exams for every student to study from imo.

We are in strong agreement here of how it should be. My experience couldn’t have been worse.

As someone who went both to dental and med school (long fucked up story) I can tell you that cheating is rampant. It’s not cheating like having written answers on your fingernail. There are social and political cliques that passing around old exams within the inner circles.

Most professors recycle their exams year to year. It’s shameful.

Upperclassmen will pass down old answers. Professors will privately give out answers test answers to help select students (particularly crying pretty girls.)

The reason why board exams causes med/dental students to panic is bc you CANT cheat on them. Old board exam questions are hard to come by and not very helpful bc vast majority of those exams are written fresh each year by a committee.

Exams written by a single professor are often (almost always in my experience) set up FOR cheating. Playing the political game. To be doctors have patients lives in their hands. It’s sick

Communism doesn’t work even in a microcosm of “communism” lol

When people are forced to use property that they don’t own bc of shared company resources, naturally the most experienced and competent people will identify and informally stake claim on the best of the ‘identical’ equipment and care for it. When communists disrupt the natural order of the system and tahe things away or allow the bottom rung to use the best equipment, chaos ensues.

I deeply understand what this man was saying and it pisses me off the Democrat conspirators committed this small atrocity within the greater one. They have no regard for any order.

In companies like that where there are shared trailers, truck lifts, etc informal claims are made on the best stuff and there is a hierarchy. It wasn’t his trailer but it was ‘his’ trailer among company trailers.

My UPS freight delivery driver was bitching to me that someone new snagged his truck lift that day. I was frustrated with him helping bc the one he was stuck with was a piece of shit.

You picked the right person to listen to.

Go buy a cheap adjustable wrench from box store and try to use them instead of the knipex and you will fully understand what you have

Last Wednesday my friend and apprentice cut his thumb on my tablesaw. I was around the corner 20 feet away but it happened so fast he already had his thumb wrapped in a towel and he opted to have my assistant rush him immediately to the ER instead of have me dress it in gauze first. Split second decision making.

I moved the trailer out of the way so they had a free path and hopped in my truck and sped after them. He didn’t have his phone.

Only person was allowed inside the ER waiting room. My assistant is 11 weeks pregnant. It was cold and raining. She had to wait outside while I was in the lobby. I could have been alllowed back to the treatment room but if I did that then his mom couldn’t switch with me. Once I knew for sure she was on her way I waited outside in the cold and rain with my pregnant assistant. For an hour.

He came out of the accident with best possible outcome- fully functional thumb but with traumatic flesh wound. But he had to be by himself for an hour bc he had to choose between my company and his mother (who was an hour away.) we couldn’t trade off. I thought the poor kid’s thumb was dangling off until the evening when I finally got to talk to him.

I made a small scene. The absurdity of the situation was so apparent that the police inside at the entrance and one employees of the hospital came outside to apologize and make small talk and reassure us.

Everyone there knew how how fucking stupid the situation was but we all just went along with it. 🤦‍♂️
