Set up automatic bank transfers to chop your income into % parts: 5% play money, 20% savings, bills etc. do what works for you. Get rid of unnecessary subscriptions.

I think it’s more:

• We rule you and take your money
• We preach to you and take your money
• We fight you and take your money/resources

I want complete control of my technology after I buy it. I don’t want my phone to assume things that I like based on my input. If something goes wrong, I want it to be my fault because I enabled the wrong setting. I also want physical buttons. I miss those so much.

Two tomato plants far exceeded what we needed. We sacrificed the remainder to the possums and birds.

Japan has pretty strict gun control, don’t they?

Do you think they’d still be protesting if the government actually implemented the policies brought forward by climate scientists decades ago?
