Well said.
I will not be terrified. Terrified is what they want. I refuse to give them what they want.
I will not be hopeless. Hopeless is what they want. I refuse to give them what they want.
I will turn anger into action. I will turn horror into hope. For any plot against us, I’ll plan.
I wonder how Brussels sprouts would taste with Italian salad dressing sprinkled over them?

So many big American corporations no longer innovate or make their own goods. They are run by CEO’s who are just fancy mercenaries and care nothing about product. All they are doing is fattening themselves up for merger or to be bought out.
This is just a gentle reminder that it’s Frozen Pizza Friday, a day of the week where we honor frozen pizzas by cooking them and chomping on pizza slices, sauce flying, like a shark feeding frenzy.
Pro Tip: In the US many frozen pizzas, once a luxury item, are now cheaper than a dozen eggs, making frozen pizza an attractive choice for supper or even breakfast.
The problem with the grossly inflated price of eggs is that once the price goes up it never returns to pre-inflation prices. Yeah the price will eventually come down but my bet is they won’t be cheap , Eggs used to be a staple because they were pretty cheap, now they are at luxury prices.

Local grocery store chain Strack & Van Til got bought by Hy-Vee. After several months they have now changed their house brand items to Hy-Vee brand. That move was expected. Not a bad thing just takes getting used to as a customer.

Talk is Trump wants to demote Gen. Mark Milley in addition to this. Very petty move on Trump’s part.

Donald, egg prices are soaring (that means the price of eggs is high and climbing higher). You promised to get this under control but you haven’t, you slacker.

PSA: Law Enforcement advises you to avoid buying baggies of eggs in dark alleys, direct from vehicles or from “egg houses”.
I’m not the first to notice this: Luigi has completely disappeared from the news. It’s an unnatural quiet. And the news media and social media are all owned by Big Business or oligarchs. Somebody does not want reporting on him or his motive.

It’s a very quiet Sunday online.
In my dream last night, somebody handed me a can of Schlitz Beer.
I’m not exactly gonna start rationing eggs, but I’m going to start rationing eggs.
I’m really not happy with any of the social media systems for community and discussion. Somehow I think commenting should be done directly on the blog post webpage or via Webmention and not on a timeline, which means no community. There is a lot of friction in those two methods plus you need a proper commenting system on the blog (third party stuff just does not work.)
