Given our current education deficit, we’ve already had to import quite a bit of talent to keep up with being a first world country.

Example: when was the last time you encountered an Indian doctor?

Given the plans to make real/higher education accessible only to the wealthy, we’re going to need to import even more talent.

As someone currently on extended vacation, enjoying several national parks, I would suspect national parks will be gutted for natural resources.

Remember, AI absorbed Reddit. Within that context, this is functioning within normal parameters.

All the talk of idiocracy this week (yes it’s only been a little over a week…we’re in Trump time again…), this is definitely a piece of the idiocracy.

It’s basically peanut infused Crisco, that is why you don’t have to stir it.

Stir peanut butter has one ingredient: peanuts. Try it sometime, high odds you will not go back.

Crisco peanut butter is for filling rodent traps and that is all.

Does this mean Musks AI will get sued by Trumps DOJ for using the label “misinformation” per Trumps 1A speech?

People almost always change over time. It’s why divorces happen over “where’s the girl/guy I married”? They don’t exist anymore, they’ve grown and adapted to life around them.

If you can swing the training, even at the CNA or EMT level, there is healthcare. Purposeful work. Knowledge that helps your daily, and is never entirely useless. If nothing else it will save you from spurious trips to the urgent care or emergency room, or tell you when to use the urgent care instead of the emergency room, and save you money there. Even before ACA there were shortages. There’s potential here for fallout as with everything else, but if hospitals can retain nonprofit status I don’t see much changing in terms of need.

For now anyway, until nonprofit status/benefits get yanked, hospitals pay part of education upgrades. They typically offer better health insurance too, if you stay in their corporate system and don’t have kids.

I’m sure there’s other purposeful professions that don’t have an impossible buyin.

I usually recommend trades. Building something with your hands, again with a skill set that carries over into your household, has purpose. But with immigration policy, a sizeable piece of the grunt work force may be kicked out, so I’m not sure what will happen there but I suspect house building will slow down.

Third party doesn’t work. You have to do what trump did, 1 man coup from the inside.

Who doesn’t like Cuban? He symbolizes the American dream. He actually is from nothing, not born with a gold plated spoon up his ass.

He’s slowly breaking big pharma with cost plus which We The People are already saving money on. He supports young business.

What’s Elon doing for working people besides firing them and forcing them to return to the office? He’s from daddy money and apartheid.

This second political campaign between these two is both horrifying and enthralling.

Cubans many appearances are making great YouTube shorts, which where I started to notice this campaigning happening alongside fake “Harris” campaign text blitzes from Elon’s side of it.
