Magaworld really doesn't understand how devestating it is to the US's stature that nobody in the world believes whatever the white house puts out as a statement anymore.

The world 100% believes the russian and ukrainian phonecall readouts over trump's.

they just never understood how the world works/worked. and their ignorance is gonna destroy so much of the progress collectively made by civilization.

if they ever realize, will be way too late.
 
This is the original projection

So....incomes are up overall, despite O&G income being down (a lot). Which means tax receipts are up a lot, which is them juicing the war economy coming home in inflation imo.

I've basically accepted that it's unlikely I ever set foot in their country again. There's a chance that they wake up, do the right thing and resist this well enough that they're able to get back to something similar to normal, but I don't know if it will be in my lifetime, and there's a big world to see. I've seen most of the stuff I wanted to see in the US. Sucks though, had some good times with the wife before she was the wife that we wanted to revisit eventually. We got engaged in Muir Woods outside of San Francisco. Our "are we maybe getting back together" trip like ~13 yrs ago was meeting up in New York.

Glad you got to experience Muir Woods. "Fogeaters" up the coast in Mendo County have some gems, too, but yeah - maybe in another lifetime. 😕

Muir Woods was a surreal experience. Something about the air just felt peaceful. Hadn't even intended on proposing there but I had the ring in my camera bag anyway and it just felt right. Happy that I did it there, beautiful place. A calmness and quiet in the atmosphere there that I had never experienced before and haven't since. I've been to a bag of other national parks/forests as well, and nothing felt the same. I keep meaning to head to PNW or coastal BC to see if maybe that's just how old growth forests feel.
