I am still trying to figure out how I am currently working more than I ever have with less free time than ever, and yet also manage to somehow have less disposable income than ever as well…

And eating at casual dining restaurants.
"He’s the one
who likes all our pretty songs
and he likes to sing along
and he likes to shoot his gun
but he knows not what it means"
Exactly this.
Kneeling for the anthem is inserting politics into sports, playing the anthem before the game? Not at all inserting politics into sports.
Pride night? Not allowed. First responder (read: cop) Night? Totally cool.
And yet, as a leftist redneck, I whole heartedly approve of the change.
Feel a little more seen, even if it doesn’t mean anything.

Not 40, but weather news hits different when the cold/humidity fucking hurts your bones.
Exactly that. Homelessness isn’t a social issue that needs to be solved, it’s the consequences of the unhomed’s poor choices and absolutely nothing else.
Arguing with willful ignorance is fucking exhausting, you literally can’t get them to see past their blind beliefs because most of them wear “you can’t change my mind” like a badge of honor.
80% of self identified Christians in America haven’t read the bible cover to cover.
They base their entire identity on a fucking book they haven’t even read. They just go listen to some asshole tell them what to think, and say “yup, that’s what I’ll base my idea of morality on!”

I’d be happy to see a world where people don’t actively create problems for others due to greed, ignorance, or bigotry.
We got enough problems from natural disasters, disease, accidents, etc. If people could just not be dicks and not fuck each other over constantly that would be cool.
Depends on how before you want to go. Before trump it was a fuckin weird state, but not a bastion of hate. Florida being fuckin Florida is actually a relatively recent thing.
Cosplay- I am a big movie nerd, and love movie props, scifi and fantasy armor and weapons specifically, and making them is so cool to me. Beyond that I do community events (kids hospital visits, parades, star wars nights at sporting events, museums, etc) and interacting with kids who genuinely believe I’m the character I’m portraying is loads of fun, and seeing their smiles is a fantastic feeling.
Tabletop games- for war games I’m actually more into the painting aspect, it’s so relaxing and cathartic, to put on an audio book or podcast and just paint for an hour or two is a huge stress relief, and now that I’ve gotten into DnD, the creative aspect. DMing is loads of fun as well. I keep a small notebook on me at all times now to jot down ideas I have throughout the day, even if I don’t use them, it’s still nice to get the ideas out and have them available for later.
I’ve gotten into 3d printing as a result of the other two hobbies, and it isn’t particularly fun, but is an incredible tool, and so I would consider it fun because of the output. I can start with an idea, and for a few dollars and hours I can have a new prop or mini without having to put on pants or leave the house. It’s the coolest thing.
I played games before, but my first obsession was Pokemon Blue, Diablo and 2 got me stuck into RPGs, and Halo CE got me into shooters.
Chilling with hobbits sounds pretty cool.
Eat lots of good, local food, drink loads of beer, smoke tons of weed out of sweet ass churchwarden pipes.
A decent flashlight.
A streamlight stylus pro is $20, uses 2 AAA batteries, is barely bigger than a pen, and can be an absolute life saver. It produces way more light and throws it way further than your phone’s light, and I’ve been carrying the same one every day for nearly 15 years now with no signs of it failing. I use it nearly daily in my personal and professional life, you will genuinely wonder how you manages without it if you make it a habit of carrying it.
Or go nuts and get yourself a something like a surefire G2. Bigger, heavier, but more durable and incredibly bright.
This is a useful addition to the conversation but I disagree with it, so I down voted.
Using it to determine if you get pregnant and then suddenly aren’t. So they can charge you for getting an abortion.
Two have basically nothing to do with each other.
We are still the richest nation in the world. 2.3 billion sounds like a lot, but its nothing to the us gov, it’s nothing to the defense budget alone, and it is actively wrecking the military capabilities of one of our top geopolitical rivals.
I’m not going to pretend to understand the intricacies of the Russia/Ukraine situation, but I know this is peanuts compared to what it could cost us, and we don’t even have boots on the ground. This is the deal of a century.
Be mad at the corrupt piece of shit republicans forcing you to go into crippling debt for healthcare and education, not the innocent Ukrainians fighting for their lives and democracy.
Because cops in America all fancy themselves the Punisher (don’t even get me started on that) where everyone is out to get them and every one they shoot is one less bad guy on the street.
No incentive to change when they can get away with killing with impunity and fulfill their murder fantasies.
Asshole who shot this kid probably bragged to all his buddies about smoking a dude with a knife and got attaboys all around.
