There’s an old adage about what curtsybears do in the woods … well, this one is just pissing around with ALT text on some photos. Just to get used to it.
n.b. y’all’s whose porn bots been following me are not good at ALT text whutsoever
Oh but I found it in my library’s Hoopla app.
Just in case that brightens any days out there (some of us just may needs some bright)

If y’all gonna fight this new klan, you gotta take some clues from us old timers who’ve dealt with them longer than we been alive.

Insanely unenforceable can be translated into:

Targeting specific communities for investigation so that “the wrong people” can’t own grocery stores that accept SNAP - and statistically reporting on which ethnicities of store owner were involved in the “massive fraud”.

Just like pineapples for swingers, it’s umbrellas for Russian hooker urine swimmers

Agreed. This is now the correct spelling.

Seems right, since MAHA-approved product pushers are just repurposed waste from the regime bullshit production.

We have an amendment process to make it palatable, but in a classic “if I had eggs I’d have ham and eggs if I had ham”, we can only fix the thing if the parties and states were able to stop joyfully reveling and wallowing around in the dysfunction.

Your consultation is very important to the shadows.
The shadows wait time is estimated at three to six solar cycles.
Your consultation will be answered in the order for which the sacrifices were received.
If you wish to receive a callback visitation instead, press the squiggly sigil.

Mom would just tell us to crawl under and be quiet about it so nobody looks.

We would giggle among ourselves pointing at the people who used credit cards in the grocery.

“Oh look, they can’t afford FOOD! They have to take out a loan and pay off their plastic tube of hamburger in monthly payments!”

It’ll be harder than playing the “put it in my cart and abandon it” game, but it’ll still have weak spots. AI ain’t no genius making them better at the game of being sucky. But, sure, if you train it to tell you they’re out of cheap-o-malt to sell you namebrand-o-malt, that’ll hurt.

If they ever have dynamic pricing that feeds upon my data, I guarantee the AI will set my prices so low it’ll kick off a store bankruptcy simultaneously. Don’t even try to play with the scroogiest grinch ever to squeeze a discontinued penny.

If it helps, you could compare the seriousity of your Billy people versus any rando named ‘Willy’ that you might meet

Heh. I’m in Alabama. I need reminding that not **all** people have that priority.

So, now they can extend their skills. You can’t have a car. That guy can’t have a house. And all them over there can’t have any health coverage. Extend that skill set for more money money don’t worry that it ain’t helpful nor moral in the new arenas you’re plundering.
January 7, 2026 at 3:16 PM
Then they did house and car. Oh such fun dumping drivers. Dumping entire swaths of the state that saw a hurricane. Sure sure it ruins lives since “without car” and “without house” is different from “bad at soybeans”. But hey it makes bank! And politicians love their part of that bank!
January 7, 2026 at 3:16 PM
I’ve presumed it comes from their roots. Farmer insurance must dump those who are not reasonably-good while supporting those who “produce”. And eliminate all possible fraud. This might work when it comes to helping farmer Green know he’s good at cow but not soybean.
January 7, 2026 at 3:16 PM
Then there’s the other version of “insurance” from the church groups where the “congregation” money helps out those “in need”.
It’s even worse, moralizing your religion against people in their time of need.
And then claiming you are bankrupting what the “good people” rely on for “moral needs”.
January 7, 2026 at 2:37 PM
I’m sure it does cover some things - it’s part of farmer insurance groups so it’ll cover “things” perhaps some big things.
But it’ll drop people quickly - just pay a bit and dump anyone that’s not sterling. Sort of like pre-ACA insurance without any possible guiderails.

Andy Dufresne: I wonder if you might get me a rock hammer from Merton’s ACE Hardware on Main
Red: What is it? And why?
Andy Dufresne: A rock hammer is about six or seven inches long looks like a miniature Pickaxe, and Merton’s has a sale this month on all hand tools - ten to twenty percent off!!

You cannot debate in good faith with a crew that is lying so hard there’s blood coming out of their eyes .. blood coming out of their whatever.
Meanwhile, here in AL, they’re planning to allow “fake insurance” via the farmers groups. They’re mad their scam insurance won’t get FED $$$

That’s a great question, Alex! See below three highly-used pronunciations of the word “bagel”
° baggle exactly the same as haggle, which can now be spelled hagel
° buhghell which is a very sophisticated formulation that accents the second syllable
° bugizzle is a fond term used by hip hoppy folks

Yes! Own it! Not like my Alabama, though. Here all the racist corruption is absolutely selected eagerly each and every election by these {waves arms at a lot of the population} these {exasperated arm waving} these {deep sigh, blackness engulfs my soul, throwing arms up in despair}
