i, too, have a friend that in all-in for elon and made tons of money with tesla stock; he is an elon and trump supporter, etc.

we talk politics regularly, and almost always disagree in these conversations. it can get a little heated sometimes, but we are pretty good at catching ourselves… after all, politics are all opinion-based, so our politics being on the opposite ends if the spectrum are understandable.

if talking politics is too much for the friendship to handle, then i recommend talking about it less (even though it can be difficult when every other story in the news is about it rn). if he brings up a political point, tell him you would rather not talk politics (i say this to my father whenever he comes over, too; its a lot easier to enjoy someone’s company through an enforced facade)

i had one of these when i was growing up - it was awesome.

now i am 40 and fondly remember that one while using the shitty wooden stick with a rubber dome.

where did you find this beauty?

my father was this way - i didnt get to know the real him until i was in my mid-late 20’s. though i think its great that he can be himself again, there is a bit of resentment that i didnt mean enough to him to stop working for once and interact with me on a human level while growing up.

we arent super close, but we are friendly to each other. having slightly less money by working less and spending more time with the kid would mean you have to find some free things to do… #worth

there has been a meme making the rounds about “if you work really hard this could be you” with a picture of a gravestone saying you worked hard. dont be that guy <3

i turn my pc off when im not using it to save power; i thought this was normal.

this was the google agreement; android.

“Waltzing”. cool people dance to 3:3

turning on a phone for the first time after purchase forces contractual agreement to be tracked. there is no decline button (at least on my motorola razr+ 2023). i hate this world.

Halo 5 whole house filter. it then goes through the filter in my fridge because its colder than the tap (lasts forever now, tho)

We need your help, Premature Ejactulation Man!

I’M COMING!

level 2 chargers at home are such a nice thing to have. its so nice for a quick stop at home to get a few things before leaving again and getting some extra range : D
