okay, i'm slow — Or maybe I was just distracted, but it just hit me that they HAD to set their laundry on fire to cover up who'd been guilty of clogging the toilets with items of clothing.

i'm sure they were just as bad [in their off hours]

as we ALL know, the strait is NOT closed — and has not been in weeks. It's open to everyone but the United States and Israel. It just has a toll now... and people need to beware the false-flag-obsessed terrorists in ISRAEL while steering through it.

powell is probably right — and if you think about it, you'll probably agree. Even if employers might be wishing to hire more workers, the insanely rising prices and even more insanely iffy supply chains of absolutely everything DEFINITELY decides them against it.

cheap at twice the price

short term memory completely shot — my great aunt had this problem. She did not sound senile to people, could still converse in the moment, but the moment kept shortening. She was fixated on her desires and her vanity, and made shit up in blatant efforts to service those. She had a crush on a gay pretty boy seventy years her junior. He would come with a dimestore gift and all kinds of grotesque flattery and get her to pay him three or four or five times in a row for an errand he'd run for her, over the course of about half an hour... so, say, asking her to pay him once every six minutes, he'd get $150 from her when she'd owed him $25. Point it out to her and she'd protest that, no, that was for a different errand, when there had been no different errand. Point that out to her and she'd say, no, it was a silly ritual to dole out payments like that... ANYTHING to keep his attention. I called it senility with an IQ.

my hero is getting darn old — still, seeing his record-breaking ride IRL is a memory I'll carry to the grave.
