re: How will your life be different in summer of 2024...

More taxes, higher gas prices, America will engage in several small skirmishes overseas to feed the military industrial complex, ten million+ illegal aliens will likely be given citizenship but the electoral college votes per state will stay the same meaning they were counted all along and the Dems cheated.

i expect my takehome to 10% less at minimum.

i also expect to be entirely quiet about my religious and political beliefs at all times.

while my faith in Christ will not waiver, i do expect (but don't want) to probably be at a different church. CRT and some other issues have taken root in a few different prominent members of our church. my pastor is a compassionate man who i love and i feel like he's walked a fine line on racial issues and remaining biblical, but i do fear that the overwhelming tide is coming against him. There are more than a few people that have made some statements along the lines of "not being able to fully understand the gospel without reading white fragility and how to be an anti-racist."
unfortunately the people who fight it most vocally, worship Trump and are no better and tie their arguments to him and the "libs," which is not the right argument. I say this as a Trump guy, but recognize him as a fallen man that shouldn't have say in the matters of Church.

td.com and texags.com probably will be my only social media.

i think gas will be closer to $3 by end of 2021 and i expect to travel a lot less for work.


we just remodeled our home and i'm hoping to spend the next 4 years reading in my new den and avoiding a lot of the noise of the world.

Gas at 4 a gallon. Sunblock outlawed for forever because of environmentalist. My european arse will have to move to Alaska.
