“Liberty means responsibility. That is why most men dread it.”

“Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.”

  • Laugh as we might just because the health affects are not immediate versus long term doesn’t mean there isn’t ramifications.

    Alcohol will mess you up in the short term and in the long term in more ways than one especially for those that abuse it.

    Oddly one of those ways mimics over consumption of sugar.

    But not to worry just like the culture of alcohol and tobacco had us convinced that there are no health issues at all to worry about, it’s the same mate for those operating on massive rushes of sugar and caffeine in energy drinks.

    They might not appear mentally drunk but rest assured their bodies are…


  • I’ve not been in a McDonald’s in decades. Nice to see? I vaguely recall fountains in there but I’m left wondering how much sugar water does one need? Diabetes in a cup anyone?

    Add what the fluid does to interfere with proper food digestion no wonder so many are so sickly and overweight.

    I wish like financial literacy they taught proper nutritional health that served the public versus the corporations.

    They have these sickly consumers screaming government over reach when they try to curb these products with regulations trying to convince everyone, they are just weak and they should be able to override these rewards centers that have been hijacked in the brain with willpower.

    Meanwhile at the same time these groups then desire the strong arm of the law to come down very hard on drug addicts when they are just another form of a addict but a less severe form that is functioning somewhat.

    It’s a quite the duality to witness. Humans are interesting…



  • I have to wonder what the scar lines from the various transplants and hair tucks would look like.

    I’ve read he’s had a lot done to close the gap and make the George Constanza Ceasar’s crown into a full head of hair. That’s a lot of ground to pull up over. I don’t think it would look so smooth.

    I can’t even imagine how much time he needs to spend each morning to get that thing ready for the public. That’s a lot of hairspray. Combine that with the orange spray tan and the makeup it’s not a 5 minute job.





  • The supporters don’t care about law and haven’t in a long time. They ignore this about him:

    The more than 25 women who have accused Trump of sexual assault or misconduct (which he has denied), and the countless more who have endured public vitriol and threats to their life after being targeted by him, have all been punished either for challenging him or for denying him what he fundamentally believed was his due.

    Laws are the least of their worries. Getting everyone to group think like them is more critical then they can get rid of everyone not like them.



  • Most here will recommend Linux Mint and it’s what I use now after trying many different versions over the years. There’s a simplicity to Mint that just works especially well for those just surfing and doing office tasks. I’ve given away old work laptops with just mint installed as most people just need a web browser and it works great for that.

    MS office can be used in your web browser or you can switch to Libre Office which should open most of your office files.

    If you have a old laptop or computer I recommend trying to install Mint there first to try it out. It’s pretty easy to start out there first before trying dual boot. You might be surprised at how quick your older laptop works with Mint in the process.

    I use dual boot on my machines but most of the use these days is to get to a web browser so I find I rarely boot into windows now.

    You will find Firefox is the default web browser but you can add Chrome to Mint if that’s your browser of choice.

    Many will say what about the privacy issues with Chrome but many still use it. I’ve switched back to Firefox myself and I like it better for my Android phone.

    Good luck on your journey!
