Yesterday we had spotty thunderstorms, if you blinked you missed them. We topped off around 90 (F)and the same forecast is scheduled for today and tomorrow as well. We're not quite at summer, but who's going to gripe about a week or so when the temps are so warmly holding steady? Without the A/C, I'm sure I'd be pissing and moaning, until I adapted. You wonder how people survived before A/C? Well, they relied on fans and sweated a lot. We, here in America, are spoiled. Window A/C units are flying out of the store. Some will be returned at the end of the summer. Some of us here in America are Users, actually, it's only here in America, it's all over the world. Nothing will ever change them.
And, what about the billionaires club not paying taxes? Thank you Republicans for creating so many tax loopholes. If you're upset that Bezos pays no taxes, or Musk, or any of the 1%, blame the political party that is more interested in their campaign donations. Blame the senior members of that party for foisting the lie of Trickle Down Economics on America. It should be no surprise to anyone that the 1% are really nothing more than Users. Oh, and a lot of them are Conservative, too.
On a lighter note, I checked to see when Windows was first activated in my PD. The answer surprised me. 2013. Wow. I had no idea the thing was that old. That means the laptop I use for cycling is even older. Ouch. I figure, as long as they work it's fine. Both are getting updated constantly. In fact, I understand there's a new Windows update around the corner. Yippee. I'm not wild about them. They want me to sign in with a password and pin... I guess they don't want the dogs looking at porn when I'm at work. I was going to post a video of doggy porn thinking it might be funny... it wasn't what I was expecting and might actually be considered offensive by some. So, instead, here's a cute video with puppies playing.
Ok, so how do people return an air conditioning unit they've used the whole summer? It's obviously been used!
ReplyDeleteAnd the Cheeto loyalists may get a surprise at the polls. Hence the voter suppression tactics the Repugs are trying to pull off. Ugh.
XOXO
They lug it into the Returns Desk and say it stopped working... it's broken.
DeleteJeff Bezos can go fuck himself.
ReplyDeleteHe has NEVER made a dime off me and never will.
Keep in mind, Amazon kept millions of people employed during the pandemic, so don't punish them, change the tax laws.
DeleteDo people actually buy AC units and return them at the end of the summer???? That's like returning a box of chocolates with teeth marks in them!
ReplyDeleteSadly we will let people return just about anything no matter how long they've had it
DeleteI'm very pleased that the Trumper lost in the NJ primary, and I'll be more pleased when Phil Murphy wins re-election. Though my center-right leaning boss has me a bit worried that I'm overestimating Murphy's support.
ReplyDeleteI suspect most center / right voters might sit the next election out, they won't vote for a Democrat, but might be able to support the party that still supports Trump.
