I am about to finish Abundance. While I don’t agree with everything, I definitely found it thought-provoking. I appreciate all the effort that went into that research.
I am interested in finding other books that tackle the same issue: how to create a richer and healthier society for all of us. What are your recommendation?
By recent, I mean something that came out in past 3-4 years. Attack on Titans is the last one that I really liked. But I haven’t kept up with new releases since then. Other favorites include Code Geass, Hunter X Hunter, Death Note, Baccano, Legend of Galactic Heroes.. I am sure I am missing some in this list. I don’t care for sports or musical anime.
What are your recommendations?
Seven swing states.
Ohio, Florida and Iowa were swing states not long ago. But they are now completely out of reach for one party. Which state will follow similar trend?
On Dem side, people have been saying Georgia. I personally have my doubts that they will turn into next Virginia anytime soon, but we will see. Governor’s race should tell us more about the shift in electorate.
From republican side, I am concerned about Nevada. Last two senate elections were frighteningly close. I am deeply concerned about the upcoming race in 2028.
Do you guys have any indication about any purple state moving in either direction in near future?
Kids with age 6 and 4 years. Ideally, we are looking for a place where we can make quick stops while driving, and admire the scenery without doing long hikes. Wife and I love hiking, but it’s not feasible in our situation. kids love beaches and wildlife.
I have been wanting to go Iceland for a long time, but I need an honest response: is it worth it in our situation? Or will I be just burning money, and better off waiting few more years?
Thanks!
For those who have visited all the famous parks on the west coast + Hawaii & Alaska, what other countries/ travel experiences you found very worthwhile?
We will be staying two nights at Mt Ranier in the first week of June. I guess I didn‘t do enough research, and didn‘t realize about the snow situation until now.
My question is, how bad will it be? Am I going to be able to access any iconic parts of the park? I also have two young children, so we aren’t looking for any long hikes. All I was interested in is to drive around scenic roads, stop at different viewpoints, and do some smaller hikes. Is there still a possibility of doing that, or will everything be frozen? My kids love playing in snow, so that’s one silver lining I guess.
Thanks in advance!

We all have either a parent or an uncle who proudly votes for republicans for tax purpose. They think that because they are the good ones, they are exempt from all the hostility from the right. I think this clip is a great example of what Republican Party truly is at its core. Even if you are a millionaire and a loyal donor, or married to white man/ woman, or convert to Christianity, you will never become one of them.
Left isn’t perfect, and I have my issues with liberals/ lefties. But they represent lesser of two evils.. And in the end, that’s all politics is.
Republican states are manufacturing permanent House majority after the gutting of VRA. Democratic states have tied their hands with independent redistricting policies, and they are going to often hit the wall just like they did in Virginia. Republicans on the other hand will gerrymander as they see fit. There is nothing stopping them. And senate map already heavily works against democrats. They literally have to win all seats in six out of seven swing states just to win the majority!
When I look at history, Dems did control the congress for 40 years (1950-1990 iirc). Are we really heading toward that direction where republicans this time will call the shots for whole generation?
Is my fear unfounded?
