  • Mr. I’m only gonna be a one term President seems to have a short memory, yet again.

    Him and his staff misled and dragged their feet about his intentions early in then he went full out with ‘no I’m gonna run fuck you all’ and it turned into a disaster.

    This is just one of the problems with the current Democratic Party. No one will work with and groom the upcoming young members to take control. The older party members literally do not have a clue what it means to step aside for the good of the party and the good of the country.



  • I will warn you, as a Dune and SW fan myself, the lore and books probably are equal or surpass them. I’ve been a fan of the storyline since the 90s and with the advent of the Horus Heresy series back in the early 2000s it made my day.

    That being said. A lot of people will suggest that as a starting point. It actually takes place 10k before the current events and follows everything that leads up to the downfall of the Imperium and how it ends up being basically the Grimdark setting it is today. It’s about 60+ books and some heavy reading.

    The last few of that series (which JUST ended) is sort of considered a separate series called the Siege of Terra and follows the end of the Horus Heresy and the final battle between Horus and the Emperor and explains how he ended up on the Golden Throne.

    If you would like something more current and a little shorter read there is the Eisenhorn series. It’s a fantastic series about an Inquisitor and his retinue. It’s a very popular 40k series.


  • Years ago I picked up this roll up tarp I use for my windshield. Fits pretty much all cars and trucks and covers the whole thing with some elastic tie downs that loop over the rear view mirrors.

    Thing has been a life savor on cold mornings and even on days that it comes snow and ice.

    Just put it on when you get home and when you go out to get in it to leave of a morning there is zero scraping. You can still start the car to warm it a bit but all the work that is required is rolling it up to put it in the backseat.

    Granted if it snows or sleets it can make it more difficult as you have to move some of this off the cover first.



  • Yup. Buckle up buckaroos.

    Got an email from HR this morning to make sure that any employees who were late had it noted on their time cards and any one who had to leave for doctors visits had the proper doctors note upon return.

    It’s been years since we’ve been requiring any of this sort of stuff but suddenly we are going to start dicking the employees again and not just here.

    My wife told me, she was told by a friend in HR that her company that they anre about to start rolling out some pretty draconian rules for employees (right out of the Project 2025 playbook).

    Prepare to enter the Fuck Around and Find Out stage my friends.
