I have always enjoyed the gold standard of programming, which has faded away...just finished House of the Dragon and Rooster. Nothing coming up is either well-produced or original. Lanterns doesn't look good. Everything else is reality schlock. I really like Stuart Fails to Save the Universe; it is good, but it is a show that you would see on a regular network. It is sad... cancelling price is too high for programming that doesn't do it justice anymore.

For those who are thinking about going here there is still time is the vibe…
It isn’t about billionaires tech bros. It is about joy, friendship and opening up to new experiences.

Please take this seriously listen to the phone call with Todd Blanch and how dangerous this is. He has no business being the AG or even in Justice Dept.

Which of the BM apps will be working during Axis Mundi-

Not happening.. Time to Burn (retired I think)

The apps have gotten me out of dire situations. If you don't like them don't use them... we all Burn our own ways.

I am so frustrated, mad and sad. I have a younger brother who grew up with privilege. He is 7 years younger Gen X 53 and only boy. He was not subject to the abuse my sister and I were growing up. He is a blonde blue eyed cis white dude who has easily gotten upper management corp jobs 6 figure jobs, 2 houses, porsche, boat exotic vacations etc. He has had struggles, but nothing compared to the status quo. Anyway, he is not Maga but walks a thin line. He got laid off because of the economy and blames it on women. Says all his jobs are being taken by women. And women shouldn't be in the workforce. I told him that is not true and argued until blue with him. We also have a transitioning niecfew (female to male). He went off about how hard it is to be a man, and why would she want to man because the struggle is so hard and women have it easy. I was losing my mind listening to him rationalize how subjugated he has been. Then went on to say my nicefew isn't being marginalized or "chased by Nazis" like he is. I told him to stop I can't talk to you and had to hang up. My Mom is rolling over in her grave. I had just read the article about "men who want women to be quiet" and I have one related to me. He was never like this or maybe he was and now he can be a big mouth about it. I won't go into his dating ideals( recently divorced)... ugh ugh

Hi I am not sure where to post this. I went to Office Depot and purchased something, I have a separate email for purchases to keep things organized; it is not linked to my primary email. I never sign in with my Apple or Google accounts to any sites or apps. I thought it was weird because my account is not under that email and I never entered that email address. I checked my Office Depot account, and it is under my shopping email. Then I had a chat with support on OfferUp and they sent me an email with a transcription of the chat and a follow up to my primary email. Again, I am logged in under a different email in my Offerup account. I reread the chat in case I accidentally wrote the wrong email address but I didn't. I tried to reach out to both support because I do not like that they are sending emails to my primary email that I did not give them or are either accounts registered under. How did they get that email??? This is concerning because how do they have access to an email address I never gave them. Are they pulling up my IP address and phishing my information. I even use an abbreviation with my name on my shopping email and they have my full name. How can I block this?? I think this is a breach of privacy.

This is not the timeline I want to be in.

I would love to connect with some of my Gen X sisters who go to the Burn. Also it is not a young person party thing there are lots of older folks there. It is an experimental city about art, music, science, community and spirituality. You find almost anything there. If interested ask me anything!

I know this is late to the party, I have been binge-watching all the Defenders series in order and have now finished Luke Cage and Iron Fist. I really enjoyed Luke Cage, the end is hanging...so who knows..I wish Disney had continued with the series. I think Netflix did a good job of mixing the characters from the individual series and I loved Misty Knights crossing back and forth. I am watching series 3 of Jessica Jones now. Just sucks when you like something and it doesn't gets its due. I haven't started Daredevil Reborn I hope Disney didn't screw it up, honestly I like Luke Cage series better. Sweet Christmas!! I hope they bring him back. I hope they bring them all back!

I know I am late to the table but finally got to binge watch all of the Netflix Defenders shows in order. I wasn't sure if I would like Iron Fist it sounded like Arrow but it really isn't. I really loved Iron Fist, Danny was annoying at first but I grew to really like him, but I loved the Colleen and Walker/Mary/? mystery personality and cranky Ward characters. What a big let down when I saw Colleen with her sword and glowing with the Iron Fist at the end. It really made me want a season 3 to follow her story. Also the vibe with all the characters had really come together. I thought Netflix did a good job, with all the Defenders. Each series held their own and I loved the Defenders together. The casting was great. I loved how Misty Knight crossed back and forth as well as others. But now I have questions since I have been left hanging.. What ends up happening to Colleen? Does she end up with her own comic or storyline? What about Walker/Mary/?

Starting last month I began to not get Ralphs best customer coupons on the app anymore. I was getting them every month and there was always a free thing i bought on a regular basis. It really helped because groceries are high. Are you still getting them or is it just me?

Does anyone else experience push back about being vegan or vegetarian? I have a few friends who blame anything that happens to me on my not eating animals or being conscious of animal made products. I just got into it with a friend who was telling me because the economy is getting so bad with inflation I will have to give up being vegan because it costs too much. I told him there is NO WAY, that his meat eating is far more expensive. I was so annoyed. Anyway I am NEVER going to eat an animal EVER in my life by choice. He would not stop about it and kept pushing it. I had to hang up. I don't judge him or give him shit for being an omnivore. I don't push my agenda on him. It is like my being vegan offends him. My brother is this way too, and I have another friend I can never ever eat with because she will nonstop talk and blame everything from me being single to a sneeze on not eating meat right out the door. Where does this crap come from? It really sucks and pushes me away from them.

Hi Just found out our camp which is usually placed around 5-4ish D is now way down and over by H&I and closer to 2. I don't know why we are small quiet camp with great moop ratings. I spend most of my time volunteering around 6 and center camp so this was always never a long time or ride from camp. But this placement is much farther than any year and my old legs aren't what they used to be.

I love love my beach cruiser I have ridden for years for don't think it is gonna cut it this year. I also walk a lot too. I can't afford an expensive ebike. I am 4'11 90lbs, which has made it hard for me to find one to fit my arms and height. I see those 14" wheels folding ones pretty cheap but I don't want to wipe out or it be unstable. Anyone used one of these or have any suggestions?

Did people's brains melt in 2015 and just keep melting? Has anyone learned what a massive shitshow happens when a narcistic rich boy reality show misogynist with no experience who spouts hate get into office? I just saw the most recent results of the LA Mayors race.
First of all, I am surprised by Bass, but thought strategically Raman would be the follow up. But I am ashamed of Los Angeles and gobsmacked that Pratt had as many votes as he does. I mean he is a full on Maga, he has openly abused women, he was stupid and didn't take out fire insurance and blamed the city. I mean he has no experience whatsoever in any kind of job other than being in front of a camera and tanking selling crystals. Why? Why? Why?

Does California and LA really want to be ripped off and tanked???

The Governor's race had too many Democrats and none of them had enough selflessness to drop out to push another Democrat forward to ward off the chance a big MAGA head Fox News commentator would be running. Again have people learned NOTHING.

OMG this is how Idiocracy began, with stupid people all googly eyed by other dumbass but greedy people.

The Idiocracy, Wall-E, The Simpsons ,BTF2 Biff, Handmaids tale, Parable of Sower, It can't happen here, 1984, Natures End, Fahrenheit 451, The Circle, Terminator dystopian timeline is chugging right along.....

Los Angeles, CA- I don't know how to fill out these questions. I don't want to mark something that is wrong. I am currently getting unemployment 254 per week in unemployment that I will run out of in a month or so. But I am also not able to meet the work or volunteer requirement due to my mental health. Do I click the 'not able to work" I have a therapist I have seen for years and who told me she can't sign the paper because she works for Teledoc. She knows how debilitating my situation is and has confirmed that my sensory and mental issues are valid and have all of her notes from our sessions. I have a PCP who is hard to get an appointment with who is with a big corp so I am worried about her filling it out. I am very limited in what I can do work wise as well as volunteering. But I do look for work and apply for jobs that I can handle. I am over 60 now and not what I used to be. What I can't handle is the pressure of making the requirements. The mental anguish alone this has already caused about losing SNAP has made me severely panicked agitated depressed, pull clumps of my hair out and I have picked off large amounts of my skin all over my body due to my mental illness being aggravated from stress.
So I guess my question is- Will my EDD exempt me from ABAWD? For how long? Do I click mental health exempt as well, not knowing if I can get a letter signed or wait until my EDD runs out so I have more time to find someone to sign it and have it for the next check in? I have my interview tomorrow morning. Thank you for any help.

I have been inundated with texts both from numbers and short codes from PartnerPros, Justborrow, GoChecks, Fintara,.... I do not open them I immediately block the number and send to junk, the codes I can only junk but not block. I am on an iphone and have the crappy ATT Active Armor which does nothing. Is there any way to filter or block other than unknown sender the texts?? They are also sending me emails from different senders- street loan, Pulse, Cashemeum cedarcreek financial, red arrow loans- most are coming from manymail.io and opengatecash.com, info@prosperloan.com

Looks like all these are spam companies & someone got my info and is having a heyday. How do I stop this??

I have checked my accounts etc and there isn't any unusual activity.

Wouldn't it be great if there was a spammer that just paid all your bills? Thanks for any help or suggestions!!
