Why is our military so huge? Why have we spent Trillions over decades?

In part to counter Russia for sure.

Now we have an opportunity to proxy war the shit out of them without risking American lives while preventing possibly worse escalation down the road should they win in Ukraine all while using old munitions and equipment that would be decommissioned anyway while increasing production at home and . . .

GOP: Nah

Baby Brezza formula machine.

Pre-heats the water and has a hopper for the powder. You can have a bottle of formula ready to go in about 10 seconds. Wifi with an app too.

Hibiscus

Ok, you have to try them with President brand butter. It’s a cultured butter from France. It’s the most buttery tasting butter my tastebuds have ever tasted. It’s all I buy now.

I’ve seen it at Publix and Walmart. If you can find it give it a try. It’s better than Kerrygold.

All about the horsey sauce

I get your point but at this point I get more satisfaction simply progressing and completing rather than overcoming harder difficulties. It’s a trade off I guess but I have a huge anount of games I haven’t even played so I guess It’s quantity over quality given my free time and that’s ok, I can change the difficulty back at any time but yes, I’m sure it impacts the enjoyment from the gameplay itself.

I’m definitely feeling this.

My schedule makes it hard to play online with people I know and I hate playing with randos.

I switched to single player games on easy mode just to be able to make progress and get through some of my huge backlog of games.

It is starting to feel a little forced though.

Are you me?

The green onion teriyaki sauce is fantastic. I mix it into ground turkey and make burgers on the grill.

On the sauce tip we’ve gravitated to SBR. It’s dark and smokey like bulls eye but sweeter.

For chicken I really like grill mates sweet and smokey rub

Don’t forget French’s crispy fried onions.

That’s definitely cake.

Nice! I caught one in the morning once.

It is at sunset but I think the term is due to them appearing opposite of the sun. This pic was taken facing East with the sun setting in the West.

Crepuscular rays are a thing too but appear in the same direction as the sun.

Didn’t think of that but damn you’re right!

Me: Had to google Quilcene River

Also me: Born and lived in WA for 28 years

It kind of sounds like you’re describing bipolar disorder. These cycles of up and down.

You said this low period always happens right after your most creative periods. Depressive cycles typically last longer than the manic phase which is what you described.

Not a doctor obviously but I lived with it undiagnosed for a very long time. Maybe read up on it and see if it fits your experience.

Whatever it is I hope you find some relief.

I’ve owned probably 15 vehicles. No Mazdas. We just went from a 2012 highlander limited to a 2019 cx-9 GT with 25k mi for around 35k.

Man, what a nice ass car. I honestly never knew. Tons of features and thoughtful details. Dollar to value we’re very happy with it.

Might turn it in for a cx-90 in a few years.

I’ve come to learn there are two varieties. One that stays short and one that grows taller. There are quite a few in the neighborhood with long stalks/trunks maybe four or five feet high. Both types look the same to me aside from their height. Mine is maybe three feet and It’s been like that for the 13 years we’ve been here.

It only grows one set per year. I swear It’s only grown a few inches in the last decade. Very prehistoric.

Luckily she was made out of cake.
