The good times won't last forever. Just remember that when they're that age, the simple joys are some of the best. Yeah, it's expensive to go to the arcade and play silly games, but some of the happiest I've ever seen my kids was buying some cheap plastic junk with their hard earned tickets.

PS: It's good to teach them the value of money, but don't be too much of a killjoy and always bellyache about how expensive everything is.
Arizona Mattress Company's Pillows

Their products are the best I've ever come across. Especially at the given price. I will shill for these people at every opportunity, because it's the best value I've ever gotten for a mattress and pillow.

The talalay latex is more expensive but it's worth it.

Too nice for our own good. Oh well.

Without accountability, laws are meaningless. Heads NEED to roll. And not just some token losers. No. People in charge need to face the music. If there isn't accountability at the highest levels, then war becomes the only solution.
Things have to hit rock bottom. When everyone starts losing everything, then the nonsense dies. Unfortunately, until that happens everyone is too comfortable to make the drastic changes that are necessary.
Government comes up with shite like this to stay relevant.

It’s not that any of these people care about lobsters. It’s that they care about their jobs.
That midget is going to piss off the wrong 13 y/o at Target and get his and his brother's arse kicked.
"They will make war on the Lamb, and the Lamb will conquer them, for he is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those with him are called and chosen and faithful."
I don't think you need to explain it. People get overly defensive about their chosen devices.

I like both platforms, but I'm still rocking an old iphone. I just don't need anything new and I ascribe to the belief that, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

One day I'll need a new phone, and when that time comes, it'll probably be a tried and true iphone. Not because it's "superior" but because changing platforms for anything other than necessity is just a novelty.
It's impossible to live peacefully with people like this.
Too much competition from Apple and Samsung squeezed them out of the market.
If Rob Reiner died at the hands of his own son, then I can't think of a more poetic ending to the mess that liberal progressives have created.

Reaping what was sown.
If I was buying an android today, I'd probably get a Moto G Stylus 2025. For $300 it's pretty much a no brainer. Headphone jack, SD card slot, Stylus, 6.7" 120 Hz screen, and a decent SoC (Snapdragon 6 Gen 3.)

Also get Android 15 installed, but 2 major upgrades so 16 and 17. Plus, security upgrades for 3 years.

I mean, for $300, it's hard to beat. No, it's not a flagship, but honestly flagship phones are largely overpriced.

The best is the use of, "ummm" in conjunction with - like. "Like, ummmm."

Sort of agree. I don't think someone should buy a real diamond though. Just don't get some massive rock because it's cheaper. Get a reasonable sized lab-grown diamond and it won't look so cheesy.

It's "we." Not, "you." You aren't doing anything either.

One man can't, but millions can. The issue is do we have the resolve to win?

I'm fine with a cheap amazon special wallet.
They were created to solve a problems that most people don't have.

Energy efficiency and space saving. If you've got a decent sized space for your washer and dryer, then it doesn't really benefit you. And any time I hear that something is more energy efficient I automatically think that it's not going to work as well.

Just get a traditional washing machine. Try to avoid the "high efficiency" models as all they do is use less water and have overly complicated wash cycles to achieve something as basic as washing clothes.

Dying is bad enough. Dying from cancer is horrible. Hope he has made peace with his loved ones.

You're right. That's the thing. I think she likes it. That's what I find troubling. I understand her feeling like she needs to carry the torch for, Charlie, but it doesn't need to be her as the face of the organization. She is attractive, don't get wrong, but she also has a duty to her family. She should step back out of the spotlight and let someone else speak on behalf of the organization.

But hey, I'm just some guy on the internet. WTF do I know?
