: Again from the vaults. It's one of my least answers ever. Responsibility is one of the catch-22s of personal freedom, free will, and other popular stuff.

In short, the only person you can control is you, and you're the only example you can set for anyone else. Barring illness or injury, responsibility is a choice.

: Non-Hispanic Whites make up 59% (~197.5mn) of the US population. Blacks/African-Americans make up 12% (~44mn) of the population.

Roughly 27% (~53m) of those Whites are on welfare. Roughly 37% (~16mn) of those Blacks/African-Americans are on welfare.

There are (~9mn) more Non-Hispanic Whites on welfare than the entire population of Blacks/African-Americans in the US.

Non-whites on welfare are not a drain on the economy, folks. That's just a stereotype that needs correcting.

: I wanted to do more than be Pro and got tired of doing the "one-time" additional contribution each month. So I did the other thing, went and got a Patreon membership. So now I'm what?

ProPat?
PatPro?
Pripyat?
CounterPat?
CoSoPatPro?
Cointelpro?
Protean?
Protreon?
Voltron?

Whatever. I did the other thing, and I did it because it's worth it at twice the price, IMO.

- We are not dealing with a 'Regime' until January 20th. Until then we are dealing with a 'Government' for the people by the people. And I fully expect that outgoing Government left standing and all it's agencies to either stay in the job to guardrail this son of a bitch, or have extra burn-bags on standby for January 19th.

Because on January 20th, we're all under a 'Regime'. Just like all those other places we used to liberate and PROTECT.

As USA.

As NATO.

: I loved the outrage and scandal (or whatever) that the ending produced. When people asked me what I thought happened, I told them I didn't watch the show, though I did speculate, and what I speculated was what Chase said in this video.

: No furniture moving for me today, it seems. Weather, for one thing. My dumb lower back, for another. It's not hurting per se, but it is telling me it would get pissed off if I worked it at all today.
