Reminder regarding the California wildfires: wildfires are a natural phenomenon that are not a matter of if, but when if left to it's natural cycle. Because we have humans living in areas in said areas where wildfires are commonplace, we as humans should take preventative actions to mitigate this from being a huge problem, such as clearing out brush and controlled burns.

But the same faggots who complain about climate change also are the same ones who block these efforts.

How would you rate the one known as Gorlock on a scale from 1-10?

The problem with this question is that the scale is limited. 1 is not low enough, as 0 would be bare minimum. But I would consider this to be a negative 10, since I would rather be permanently single than have any sort of relationship with "her."

Because you don't even get a biological woman. You get an obese man LARPing as one. I would think less of a man who would choose her just so he would no longer be single.

"Violence is never the answer" is an understandable idea when you consider the fact that violence often begets more violence. Those who make that statement want violence to be avoided, as it often does bring more harm than it does benefit. But it is naive to think that it is "never the answer." Sometimes you encounter someone or a group that can only be stopped with an even greater amount of violence.

It is not pleasant, but life is often not either.

"Violence is never the answer" is a phrase I have often heard by those who will unironically brand Hitler as the most evil man to ever live and consider Abraham Lincoln the greatest President ever to live.

We can debate the merits (or lack thereof) of these assertions, but I don't think these same people see any issue with US going full out against the Axis countries or think Abraham Lincoln was anything but a saint.

Violence was the answer during these times. It was just a matter of who won.

This is not to say that no one is legitimately struggling and are indeed doing all they can while but still coming up short. Regardless of the external economic conditions out of your control such as the job market and inflation, you can still affect your personal financial status by evaluating your spending and making changes in your spending. When economic conditions are bad, this becomes more necessary.

I have mentioned before that I want to be a fly on the wall when I see or hear anyone mention how they cannot afford to live because I often suspect that they have spending they could reduce on things they do not need. I found what I was looking for with Caleb Hammer in his Financial Audit videos. Far too many people spending money on eating out, 7 dollar coffee, trips and vacations they could do without, and other frivolous crap.
