Trickle down economics didn't start with Regan it was a thing for at least 100 years beforehand and was known as horse and sparrow theory.

The idea was that if you fed a horse enough oats, some would pass through for the sparrow to eat too.

I just don't understand this behavior. Like isn't it easier to ignore these people and not give their business money? I have a neighbor I really dislike cause he's a jackass, you know how much energy I spend hating him? None, I just ignore his ass. Why do these "conservatives" need to go out of their way to make other people miserable when you could just move on with your life and not interact with people you disagree with.

 

The vote occurred nearly two weeks ago, shortly after the Georgia Republican had called then-fellow Freedom Caucus member Rep. Lauren Boebert a pejorative in a verbal fight on the House floor.

Yea that was where I was going with it too. Like fun thought experiment if you take physiological traits into account can we determine what would be the best monster meat and preparation for said meat?

Then I read the rest of it.......

This right here. I fully plan for my next vehicle to be completely EV but refuse to give tesla any money at all. Currently it's not in my realistic price range but Rivian has some pretty sweet choices

One series I got into for a while was skull duggery pleasant. Very dick Tracey vibes from the main detective, but the catch is he is an animated skeleton who investigates mysteries in the world of magic and has a teenage girl that tags along as his apprentice. All in all a fun read that stays in the detective noir vein but also takes a couple steps into the fantasy realm.
