Right?! All these people who think that there are just well paying jobs, that cover your expenses plus some, are just sitting there while we ignore them and choose to be poor.
I'm in my 40's going back to school again trying to do better. I've changed jobs roughly every 4-6yrs to get better pay and hours. I got stupid lucky to find 2 people to buy a house with right before the market went to shit. I'm making better money than ever in my life but still living the same. Gas, taxes, food kept a steady rise, along with the school loans I never made the promised income for (from the schools recruiters, career aids, etc) thus am still repaying.
Poor people aren't lazy. We're just poor.
Imma bet most of us are the kind of people that would never take advantage of someone else for our personal gain. Most old acquaintances I've met back up with who are doing much better off, I can't say that I would do what they did for it. I've been called things and scoffed at when I've said I have personal morals, and told how it interferes with making real money. Absolutely not saying anyone making good money isn't moral. It does narrow down the scope of opportunities though.
And if I just whip a gun out and shoot everyone who espouses this shit, it won't take very long for me to be shot or jailed myself. And, now it is proof to them that the other side IS out to get them and their fairy in the sky. Changes nothing for the better in the political hellscape but, does ruin my families lives. I do not want violence to be the answer. But, if it has to be, unless there is a tight movement against these holy dingbats, it's just a useless sacrifice to jump and go ballistic on them.
As much shit as I've seen on here with extreme left saying the only answer is violence back, I have not seen anyone working towards that in the real world. What, everyone is waiting for someone else to get started? Or, we really are not has homicidal as they are and prefer to logically come to a conclusion?
What about those of us that tried but get met with "It's all rigged anyway, doesn't matter if you vote, or who for"? Like, we are all behind these nutjobs?? Should we be as bad as them and go for extermination of our opposition?
I had to go look those up, I had not heard of them
They look tasty but, damn they are a little pricey, at least in my area. Are they pretty good sized/filling?
I have done the cup and my own bowl with it. I make sure to have my noodles broke in half in my bowl before I pour my water in, then egg. With the cup it gets a little messier because of space but still doable.
Totally replied to the wrong thought chain, I pour boiling water in my cup and drop the egg. Usually once it's cool enough for me to handle, about 10mins-ish egg has cooked through
Yogurt and granola, with a side of nuts and cheese for an portable, decent protein, heavy snack/light meal. Or, salad with chopped lunch meat and some cheese on top, so I can again get some easy protiens. I also keep some decent frozen meals in case I'm short on cook time and need a hot heavy meal. There are work gaps where I can barely spend time at home and the bagged "family meals" of pasta or mixed veggies are awesome portioned out for multiple meals.
I remember tanggrams being great as a kid as solitary creative play. Helps reinforce colors and shapes, their relation/fit with each other. How they combine to form new shapes. Prob more I've forgotten.
Freaking out man. Adulting is really hard sometimes. This too shall pass, though. I hope everyone else is doing well. Maybe planning something nice for yourself or someone else for Feb chocolates day!
