My kids were hyper aware out of high school of the burden of student loan debt and refused to sign on any federal loans. I’m proud they graduated college without debt… they did it sacrificing party time with work time, but they are financially better off because of it.

So many kids now have learned that signing paperwork can mean financial ruin that can’t be bankrupted.

That’s a good thing.

I cannot in good conscience vote for the two party system anymore. A trillion dollars went into the coffers of both sides to market “old” to the people. That money wants returns and it often means Bill riders that make billionaires richer at the sacrifice of us.

Until the people realize this and vote other parties instead of Democrat or Republican, I’m out.

I don’t even know why people use Google anymore besides maps and restaurant data. The rest is all SEO corporate junk.

I search directly on medical and research / studies sites now. The rest I use AI.

They haven’t figured out that Conservatives see this as a huge win? No liberal babies…

Because you aren’t invested right. You probably clicked that option to allow them to invest it for you and so it picks all the funds with high expense ratios. Mine jumps 20-30% every year.

Well, crap! Was seriously looking at the CX50. I’m not paying monthly to use stuff that’s already equipped in the car. Just madness.

Yeah, I’m an offline RPG gamer and this generation is leaving me behind. Thankfully there’s still some great options like Zelda, Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy. But I feel our options are slimming down.

My PC met everything except processor. Did a registry hack and updated anyway. All is well, for now. I don’t feel like building another PC at the moment.

Damn, you know it’s bad when Dell is laying off a ton of people through policy.

Turn off microphone access to all social media and tell your friends the same. I’ve disabled mine for years and all ads are generic or from prior sites visited.

I guess Trump needed the exercise trashing all these books… apparently

Government is known not to support their troops after they return. Parents are telling their kids to not join and now it’s finally being seen in enrollment numbers.

 

What would you add to this list? If you are going to Lake Powell, you’ve got to stop at Rainbow Bridge. Checking out Tuacahn Theater is also a must.
