I'm trying to stay engaged in the goings on in the US, whilst keeping my sanity. Mostly a shit posting, reply guy. Expect a mediocre white guy perspective, but I'm always seeking different viewpoints.

Google lens sees it as far back as 2016, but I don't see who created it. I saved it to my phone 3 years ago, sorry I don't have more information.

My dad said he didn't realize food should be so flavorful, until he went home with a roommate on break in college. The boiled ham just wasn't the same after that.

A new leader emerges, for the most divorced man in the world. Absolutely no self awareness whatsoever. "I replaced my wife with a truck, that has depreciated 45% in the first year, that doubles as my imaginary therapist." Genius!

And are you married?

I was married, but I'm not married anymore. Women don't like the vehicle.

In July, Tesla rolled out a software update to integrate Grok into many of its vehicles. Do you use it?

Her name is Aura, and I use her as a therapist. When I'm driving, I'll ask questions, and it actually gives really good therapy advice.

I open the Citi app, and it reads: FDIC insured, backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. That doesn't give me the confidence that it once did.

I, for one am shocked! Shocked, I tell you to find out....

2021 CPAC stage on the shape of Odal Rune, a symbol often associated with Nazis. I'm sure it's a total coincidence, and totally unintentional.

Waffen-SS collar tabs. Worn by members of the 7th. SS-Freiwilligen-Gebirgs Division "Prinz Eugen"

Regulations for the SS Collar Tab went through quite an evolution in just a short 16 year period. The first SS Collar Tabs were introduced in 1929 by Heinrich Himmler as part of the newly introduced SS uniform code. Initially, tabs were worn by both lower rank SS men and their senior leaders. Lower ranks would wear a rank tab as well as a numbered unit identification tab, with senior leaders wearing their rank tabs on both collars. In 1933 the well known “SS” runic tab was adopted by Hitler’s personal body guard detachment, the “Leibstandarte” or “LAH”. The LAH used this runic tab in lieu of the numerical unit identification tab to identify them as members of the elite unit protecting the “Führer”. In 1934 the runic “SS” tabs were again adopted for use by the early “SS-VT” units.

I wonder if his favorite song is "A Whiter Shade of Pale" by Procol Harum?

No offense to the band.

Too young to understand
Made a youthful mistake
Listening and learning

Heavy is the crown. Hopefully, you're being paid what you're worth.

You must be doing something right, or wrong depending on how you look at it.

Years ago this was a mocking protest. Who knew it was actually a preview.

I worked the summers to save up for expenses in college, and once the money was gone there was no more. I had to keep to the budget or there'd be problems at the end of the school year.
