I don’t know much about bulking or cutting but is there a reason why the food is so plain to the point where theres not even salt or pepper 😭 like I see people make “yummy bulking meal prep” videos where the food looks like actual food and I just wonder why people still go the plain route when stuff like that exists

Yeah, generally when you’re doing a bulk or cut and you’re being strict, you’re breaking every mouthful of food into its macros. For cuts, everything counts against total calories, so the food is bland because you only have so many calories you can eat, but you still need to take in massive amounts of protein. I’m in a cut rn doing 1300 calories with 140g of protein and let me tell you….I’m not quite eating like a bodybuilder, but it’s close. I’m putting hot sauce and MSG on everything. I’m not cooking with butter or heavy sauces. There just isn’t room.

For bulks, it’s a little different. You’re putting on muscle by 1) eating a ton of protein and calories and 2) working out like crazy (strength training, mostly). The more lean protein you eat, the easier it is to put on muscle.

Usually that’s what people mean when they say a clean or lean bulk — stuff like straight chicken breast, eggs, dairy, other meat products. This also helps protect against unwanted fat gain. Moderate increase in overall caloric intake, high protein, basic protein options.

A dirty bulk, in contrast, is just eating as many calories of whatever macros you want to gain as much weight as possible while working out (generally in advance of doing a cutting cycle after). The “mass moves mass” line is overused and without nuance, but in that respect it’s true — an underweight lifter moves less mass than a version of themselves with 10-20 more pounds, even if only some of that is actually muscle.

So yeah — sometimes people can bulk with tasty meals. Other times they eat plain chicken breasts or smoothies. My recommendation is to get a good spice drawer to offset the sad diet of lean bulks or cuts. I might make your basic chicken and rice, but it’s gonna be spicy and flavorful (without adding a ton of sodium or butter etc).

And again — this is not a super healthy way to eat long term. That’s why there are cutting and bulking cycles. It’s usually temporary. Hence why it’s more tolerable.

Is Hello Kitty Island Adventure for you?🎀✨

I’ve noticed a lot of people asking whether or not they should get this game and after I’ve been playing it for a little while I decided it would be nice to describe what the game is like and give some information to help you decide if it’s for you. The best way to describe this game is that it’s like if Sanrio, Animal Crossing, Breath of the Wild (BOTW) and Stardew had a baby.

Sanrio- This one is pretty obvious but if you don’t like Sanrio you won’t like this game. Most of the game is about building friendship with these characters to progress.

Animal Crossing- I unfortunately can’t say exactly why this is without a small spoiler (if you want to know and don’t care about spoilers message me and I’ll tell you) but we’ll just say it uses the sense of community that’s in Animal Crossing. This is not a really big part of the game (at least for as far as I’ve gotten) but it is a lot of fun. Thats why I don’t really like to compare this game fully to Animal Crossing. It’s more comparable to BOTW and Stardew for me. There’s also a Nature Preserve that’s similar to the museum.

Breath of the Wild- In the game there are temples you can visit that are mostly optional but are required for some quests. These are just like the ones from BOTW. There’s also stamina that works pretty similar to BOTW. You also get quests just like you do in Breath of the Wild.

Stardew Valley- Ever wanted to just romance the townie’s in Stardew? Then this is the game for you. The biggest part of this game is building friendship with all the characters. By doing so, you unlock quests to advance in story. Just like in Stardew, each character has different preferences as to what they like. You give them a 3 heart gift and it builds their friendship more than a 2 heart gift would. You can also give them 3 gifts per real time day and no, you can’t time travel and I’ll go into this more later.

Now that you know what gameplay looks like, let’s get into the pros and cons.

Pros

•You can only do so much in the game until you no longer can do anything until the next real life day. Which if you’re anything like me this prevents you from binging the game and getting burnt out. Also when you run out of quest there’s other things you can do around the island.

•It’s a collecting heavy game. It’s good to go around the world and try to collect all the goodies you can to have enough stuff for gifting.

•Getting to be friends with all the Sanrio Characters is very fun. Especially as someone who’s been a Sanrio fan for 10 years.

•I promise you will be surprised with all the things you can do in this game. I’m still shocked when I unlock new things.

Cons

•You can’t time travel in this game or else it will break. So no matter what you are stuck to a 24 hour time cycle. (Though you can get items to reset items spawning and friendship gifts.) I recommend getting this game on PC for this reason. I got this game on switch with my Animal Crossing game and now I’m too scared to time travel in Animal Crossing and forget to sync my time when I log back on to Hello Kitty Island Adventure (HKIA) from what I’ve seen, the game resets at midnight in your time zone.

•The story isn’t written the best. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a fun game but if you’re someone who plays games for there storylines, you probably won’t like this game. I’d say the story is more cute than being intriguing.

•The game can be, at times, glitchy. Lag does happen. This is to be expected with it being a mobile game. Just go into it knowing it’s not going to be a game that works as good as the others I’ve listed as far as lag. I would say it probably lags 1-2 times per hour (just estimating)

•One thing I’m starting to run into is quest needing the same materials in bulk but again there are items that you can use to respawn more items to collect. As a little tip I recommend only using these items when you run into this problem.

Disclaimer: I have played 60+ hours of this game. I have not tried multiplayer as I have no friends who have this game. (So if you get this game and want someone to play with feel free to message me.)

Feel free to reply down below if you have the game and have anything you’d like to add☺️

I hope this helps!

your worldbuilding for your dreamingverse au is so good i wish i knew everything about the world you're making. i genuinely could read about it for HOURS

Oh that is so sweet! @solar-cycle And who am I to deny your curiosity (I certainly am happy to rant about Dreamingverse)!

MINECRAFT SPECULATIVE LORE?

(Sorry about the lack of image, I was too excited to post and didn’t have any ideas jump out at me for what to draw… next post maybe lol)

Here’s the fundamentals of the Dreamingverse au:

There was, once, two universes. The first, the one you might be able to imagine, was made of matter, of time and space, and was inhabited by advanced civilizations. The other was pure sapience, a sprawling neuronic network that dreamed in its own pathways. They call it the End Before the Beginning, the cataclysmic collision of universes that split and fragmented and recrystallized into a single many faceted prism. And in the wake of this cataclysm, the civilizations of before collapsed. It wasn’t an immediate thing, though, but a slow implosion driven out of fear and competition over resources. How were people not meant to be afraid, when the dead were suddenly granted a second waking and the world they knew was ripped apart at the seams? When being born of pure thought, the manifestations of death, destruction, and oblivion were made to walk among them? Humanity downfall was eventually to war and its own nuclear power, and thus began the era of oblivion.

The era of oblivion was marked by the absence of life and the settling of the earth. The newly reborn [universe] was irradiated and barren, made of fractured pockets of tribes and civilizations relearning how to live in their world and hanging on to their lives with white knuckles. If nothing else, this extreme of living incentivized the rapid evolution of genetics, leading to offshoot species in the descendant of humanity, Piglins, Witches, Endr, and more, among them. These offshoots are widely known as “Hybrids” granted by the universe the qualities of species better suited to their extreme environments.

It is then the Era of Growth and Decay. The plants, as with the undead, are given a sentience of their own, mutated and lively, they are the first to begin recovering from the End, and with them, the deities of these concepts too. Among these plants, Creepers, long, slow-moving creatures of explosive spores, Sculk, Mycelium, Glares, and the Nylium of the Neth.

And in the wake of the plants, the Era of Beasts follow, where animals and their corresponding deities begin to grow bold and awake.

Following at last is the rebirth of civilization. It’s the Neath that takes off first, the early bastions of the Piglin gathering culture and resource in order to begin exploring and inventing, the overworld soon following. And here also, is where the Creators truly emerge. They had existed before in some capacity, sapient beings woven more deeply into the fabric of the universe, able to catch the flitting dreams of the universe and spin it into their own make. Beings with the ability to Construct and Destroy at a scale no Animate could match even with a lifetime of magical and alchemic training. They were revered and despised in often equal measures.

—

Which brings us to the basics of Sapient classifications. To be clear, these lines are not hard or certain, but rather a general categorization.

There are the Animates of course: NPCs essentially (though that feels dismissive) the bulk of the population, living limited lifespans and with little access to magics.

These rest are Creators, broadly speaking:

…

The so called “Players,” generally the children of other Creators, of Animates, or Animates themselves given the powers of Construction and Destruction later in life in one way or another. They tend to be more humanoid, and generally include undead Creators. For along time, they were really the only group of Creator easily accepted by the general population as they were less other.

Then there are the Fae, objects, plants, or animals that are given the gifts of the universe and higher consciousness alongside it.

And then the Constructs; Places awakened and given thought and the capacity to change and move. Often considered god-like in their own right.

And the Deities. Gods sometimes. Beings made of pure thought, concepts personified.

—

Civilization marched onwards, and Creators did not often die. Empires rose, fell, rose again, and over the course of many great wars and eras of peace —from the War With Heaven, to the Rapture of Empires, to Antarctic’s Conquest— the Universe slowly settled into its Dream and its people into their own.

Ask me about:

- the structure of the universe and the layout of its dimensions…

- Mechanics, this may be bundled in with the structural stuff…

- Character, lore, and series head-cannons (I may or may not have them yet!)

- The Deities

- The Remnants 0.0

- Anything really, maybe I’ll do some art :3

It’s national infertility awareness week, and wow. The way things change.

I’m writing this as my husband naps after covering the bulk of the night shift, as my newborn baby boy sleeps in his bassinet. A year ago this was a distant dream I barely allowed myself to consider. A year ago we were just starting our IVF journey. And now? Now we have a baby.

When we did our egg retrieval, we kind of knew we’d only try one cycle. It’s taxing on the body, to say nothing of the cost - especially since there’s no guarantee. I have low ovarian reserve, so my doctor cautioned me not to expect a lot of eggs. “Ten would be a great number for you.” We were focused on quality, not quantity. In the end, we got seven eggs. Only five were mature, and only three fertilized. But all three made it to blastocyst - embryos. Three chances at a take home baby. We opted for genetic testing, and found that one of the three was genetically abnormal. So. Two chances.

There’s a distinction between wanting to get pregnant, and wanting a take home baby. The infertility community knows well that the two don’t always coincide. There were times I felt especially lost because I’d never managed to get pregnant, had never seen a positive test. (Well. Maybe.) But the goal isn’t a positive test, the goal isn’t to just get pregnant - it’s to have a take home baby. To stay pregnant. So many within this community suffer recurring losses. That wasn’t my journey, but it was there at the back of my mind, the possibility that I might not only struggle to get pregnant, but to keep a pregnancy. We had two embryos. We decided that we wouldn’t do another round of IVF. We would transfer these embryos, and whatever happened - we would make our peace with it.

We transferred one of those embryos in August, and he’s now sleeping in his bassinet, perfect and healthy and here. Once just a speck on an ultrasound, a heartbeat on a monitor, now a permanent part of our lives. It feels like he was always here, like we always loved him. I was looking through pictures because I couldn’t remember when, exactly, we started the IVF cycle that gave us him, and discovered something: he was born the day before the one year anniversary of starting IVF. Quite literally, this process was an entire year in the making.

I’m not trying to make light of infertility, to make it sound like it was all so easy, so worth it now that we have a baby. It wasn’t easy, but it was worth it. And I recognize that I’m saying that on the side of having gotten a take home baby. Lots of people don’t. I know someone who had over five failed transfers before they got their take home baby. I know someone who got one viable embryo from a retrieval, who is now almost a year old. I’ve heard stories of miscarriage and early loss and TFMR, of retrievals that yielded no embryos. As much as science has advanced, there’s still so much we don’t know. I have unexplained infertility; we’ll probably never know why we couldn’t get pregnant without IVF. It’s an exhausting, lonely process, but sometimes things work out. I’m one of the lucky ones.

So, it’s national infertility awareness week, and I’m still infertile, I guess, but I have a son. A son who would not be here if not for science and luck - and sure, a bit of faith. I’d do it all over again knowing that this is where we end up, and yet I know, too, that we have another embryo, and I don’t yet know what we’ll do with it. I don’t know if I can risk the heartache of a failed transfer. I don’t know if I want to go through another pregnancy when mine was difficult; if I want to experience another birth when my son’s was more than a little traumatic. Things to work on in therapy, I guess.

I won’t pretend to have profound words of wisdom. I got lucky; IVF worked. My baby is here, and he’s okay. I don’t take any of that for granted, and I also won’t downplay the difficulty of this process by saying “don’t give up, it’s so worth it once you have your baby in your arms, just keep going.” That’s a personal decision. IVF isn’t a guarantee. Sometimes, having a stop date is the healthiest thing you can do. At a certain point, you have to decide to keep living, no matter what the outcome. I got a good outcome. I won’t forget how fortunate that makes me.

Today - this week especially - I am so beyond grateful for science, for doctors, for my clinic, for my support system - for my husband - because I did get my take home baby. In the hospital he wore a onesie I purchased over a year ago, back when he was just a hope, back when all I had was hope - and a basket of baby things in the closet, for some day, maybe.

And now, he’s here.

How to Prioritise Fitness and Nutrition When Leading a Busy Life

Balancing work, social life, and personal responsibilities can be a lot, and often make it feel impossible to prioritise fitness and nutrition. However, with the right strategies, you can incorporate healthy habits into your routine without sacrificing productivity. Here are some practical ways to stay on top of your health and well-being (even with a packed schedule!).

Plan and Prepare Meals in Advance

Meal prepping is a game-changer for maintaining a nutritious diet. Set aside time once or twice a week to plan your meals, batch-cook healthy options, and portion them out for convenience. This reduces the temptation of unhealthy takeaways and ensures you get the right nutrients to fuel your body. Here are some quick, easy tips:

Cook in bulk: Prepare staples like grilled chicken, roasted veggies, and quinoa to mix and match.

Keep healthy snacks on hand: Nuts, fruit, yoghurt, and protein bars can curb hunger on busy days.

Hydrate: Always carry a water bottle with you, to ensure you keep hydrated throughout the day.

Schedule Your Workouts Like Meetings

If you don’t make time for exercise, it won’t happen. Treat your workouts as important appointments by scheduling them in your calendar. Even short, high-intensity sessions can make a big difference. Some workout ideas for a busy schedule include:

Morning Boost: A 20-minute HIIT session before work.

Lunch Break Move: A brisk walk or a quick bodyweight circuit.

Evening Wind-Down: Yoga or stretching before bed to relax and reset.

Choose Efficient Workouts

You don’t need to spend hours at the gym to stay fit. Instead, you can choose workouts that provide maximum results in minimal time. Some fantastic time-saving exercises include:

High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT): Burns calories quickly and improves cardiovascular health.

Strength Training: Helps build muscle and boosts metabolism in short sessions.

Active Commuting: Walking or cycling to work adds natural movement to your day.

Make Smart Food Choices on the Go

Busy schedules often lead to unhealthy eating habits, but making mindful food choices can help you stay on track. Here are a few healthy eating strategies to consider:

Choose lean protein and fibre-rich foods to stay full longer.

Choose grilled or baked options rather than fried foods.

Avoid sugary drinks and excess caffeine, opting for herbal teas or infused water instead.

Prioritise Sleep and Stress Management

Lack of sleep and high stress levels can derail your fitness and nutrition goals. Aim for at least 7 to 9 hours of sleep per night and incorporate stress-relieving activities into your routine, like the below:

Practice mindfulness or meditation.

Take short breaks throughout the day to reset.

Engage in hobbies that help you unwind.

Stay Accountable and Flexible

Staying consistent is key, but we all know that life happens. If you miss a workout or indulge in a treat, don’t be too hard on yourself - just get back on track. Keeping a fitness journal, using habit-tracking apps, or joining a supportive community can help you stay motivated.

In Summary…

Leading a busy life doesn’t mean neglecting your fitness and nutrition. By planning ahead, making smart choices, and staying consistent, you can maintain a healthy lifestyle even with a packed schedule. Always remember: small, consistent efforts lead to long-term results.

3024 - ENEMY UNKNOWN

Weldry

Aurigan Directorate

20 December 3024

0430 hrs Local Time

The fog on Weldry settled like a death shroud over the hills and valleys, muffling sound and distorting sight. The Aurigan Directorate’s defensive line braced for attack, the soldiers uneasy in the gray haze that seemed to shift and whisper around them. Their scanners twitched with anomalies, struggling to process conflicting data. Then, the first tremor shook the earth—a slow, rhythmic pounding that grew closer with each impact.

“Contact! Ten o'clock!” a sensor officer shouted. Targeting computers flared to life, latching onto a massive silhouette advancing through the fog. It was tall, bird-legged, and had arms that ended in blocky weapons pods, a silhouette that momentarily triggered a "MAD" designation—Marauder—before flickering into "CAT," as the large boxy missile racks on its shoulders became visible. It was as though the targeting system couldn’t decide if it was dealing with a Marauder or a Catapult. The names switched rapidly a few more times before the system froze and dropped the tag entirely.

The shape loomed closer, chrome plating reflecting ghostly outlines in the mist. Twin arms raised, their monstrous weapons array blazed to life in unison. Lasers and missile salvos screamed forward. The first beam vaporized a Directorate tank, the armor turning incandescent before collapsing into slag. Missiles followed, a perfect arc of destruction that engulfed two infantry positions in fiery blasts. The soldiers barely had time to scream before the explosions swallowed them whole.

Further down the line, seismic sensors screamed warnings. Another machine emerged—a towering behemoth, its broad shoulders evoking the familiar silhouette of a Victor. But the machine’s towering height and the monstrous bulk of its arms triggered a reclassification: Atlas. The computer stuttered between the two designations before giving up, locking on with a blank “ERROR” tag. The machine’s optics flared a cold, calculating crimson, and it fired a pair of weapons mounted on its broad arms. Gauss slugs ripped through the fog, annihilating an entrenched command post in an instant. The sheer kinetic force sent debris and bodies scattering like broken dolls.

The Directorate’s soldiers fired back in desperation. Shells and missiles roared into the fog, detonating harmlessly against unseen defenses. There was no telling how much armor those giants bore, but whatever it was, it shrugged off return fire with contemptuous ease.

"Movement to the right!" someone yelled, panic creeping into their voice. Through the fog came another figure, its shape distorted and wrong. The legs—those awful, reverse-jointed legs—mimicked those of a Locust, but the body was impossibly large. The computer hesitated, cycling through options before spitting out "LOCUST?" followed by a cold, static-filled "UNKNOWN." The machine moved with terrifying speed, far faster than its mass should have allowed, its footfalls landing with bone-rattling force. Its weapons unleashed hell: autocannons tearing through infantry formations with mechanical efficiency - and doing so much faster than normal autocannons ought to.

The fog thickened as the assault continued. Explosions bloomed like flowers of flame in the mist. A fourth machine appeared, slender and impossibly agile for its size. It vaulted over wreckage with ease, its frame gleaming in the half-light. It resembled a Highlander at a glance, but its movements and frame were smoother, more graceful—like some monstrous dancer weaving through death. Its weapons fired in perfectly timed bursts, lances of energy disintegrating vehicles in rapid succession.

And then came the nightmare without a name: a machine too large, too unnatural to identify. The scanners could only mark it as "UNKNOWN." Its body was a patchwork of angular shapes, yet its presence in the fog was overwhelming. The quad-mounted guns on the ends of its arms fired once, two spinning and unleashing a hail of shell fire, the others firing enormous metallic shot, like God's own shotguns. Under that assault, a Directorate gunship disintegrated mid-air, the wreckage tumbling from the sky in a shredded heap. Then, it braced itself, and an immense cannon on its back fired into the air - the shell arcing almost lazily before screaming back down, splitting open as it did so and releasing a cloud of vapor, which then exploded, the massive fireball and concussion vaporizing and pummeling an entire infantry platoon. Four lasers fired from ita shoulders, vaporizing an unfortunate Directorate tank that foolishly rolled out to challenge it.

Panic set in as soldiers broke and ran. They fled blindly into the mist, chased by the ghostly echoes of footfalls and the distant flare of weapon fire. No matter how far they ran, the tremors followed, relentless and inescapable. The fog obscured everything except fear. What were those machines? Where had they come from? No one had answers. All they knew was that death had come to Weldry, in forms that defied logic, wielding power beyond anything the Directorate had ever seen.

Further 'Mechs joined the fray, these mercifully more familiar in design - but no less deadly. Sixteen other mechs walked and fought alongside the giants of silvery death - a tide of metal the Directorate troops quickly realized they no hope against. Chief among the new arrivals were a heavily modified Marauder in garish slapdash neon, whose pilot seemed to delight in stomping on enemy 'Mechs with its massive taloned feet, and a blue-and-silver Thunderhawk, its lostech pulse lasers blazing away at infantry, mechs, and vehicles alike, stuttering pulses of light searing and melting flesh and armor while desperate infantry fired back, their rounds pinging harmlessly off the paintwork.

By the time the morning sun broke through the fog, the battlefield was a graveyard of molten metal and shattered earth. The chromed titans had vanished, leaving only ruin and terror in their wake. Survivors whispered of gleaming monsters that moved like demons, their mechanical bodies warped and unnatural. Tales of the silver giants spread quickly through the ranks—warnings of horrors that did not belong to the Inner Sphere.

headcanons, zombie universe

the crew

The Crew is a group of survivors originally founded by a construction crew on the site of some expensive estate in Texas. They took over the site when the world went to hell, and their assorted skills meant that the place quickly grew into a fortified little town.

To those outside of the Crew, they have a terrible reputation for violence, cruelty, and even cannibalism. Things are much more civilized within the walls, but they definitely put on a show for outsiders as another layer of defense.

The Crew is made up of men, women, and children. Everyone contributes in any way they can, with jobs cycling every now and then to keep things fair, as well as to ensure that people learn at least a little bit of everything.

jobs

Some jobs include:

Tending the garden

Tending the livestock

Exploring surrounding areas to mark places for further exploration and looting

Doing that futher exploring and looting

Managing the food stores

Managing the armory

Manning the infirmary

Babysitting

Everyone is rotated to almost every job, unless they physically are unable to, or have more advanced medical training; the last people are given the safest jobs, and receive an strong escort if they leave the estate.

the estate

The Crew calls their compound simply The Estate. When everything came crashing down, the frame and outer walls of the home on the estate had been raised, and the Crew went ahead and finished the mansion with touches necessary to the new world. Many bedrooms, a couple secure store rooms, a kitchen, and a basement with a couple of cells make up the bulk of the main building.

A barn was also being constructed on the estate, and it received a similar treatment to the main building.

Over time, new buildings have been erected about the grounds, such as a smithy, a safe room for the children and whoever will be guarding them, and a pavilion for community dinners.

leadership

The Crew is lead not by a single person, but by a few of the most experienced members of the community, as elected by the community.

The current team is made up of primarily the eldest members of the original Crew, including Jesse.

Members of leadership are referred to as Foremen or Forewomen, which began with someone mockingly saying "You got it, foreman" but it quickly stuck.

Is The Left Preparing For War If Trump Wins?

Authored by Lee Smith via RealClearPolitics,

The propaganda campaign labeling Donald Trump as an aspiring dictator determined to use the military and national security apparatus against his political opponents is designed not to affect the upcoming election but rather to shape the post-election environment. It is the central piece of a narrative that, by characterizing Trump as a tyrant (indeed likening him to Hitler), establishes the conditions for violence — not just another attempt on Trump’s life, but political violence on a massive scale intended to destabilize the country. 

As I write in my forthcoming book Disappearing the President, Democratic Party research and media reports show that many senior party officials and operatives are preparing for the possibility of a Trump victory. Accordingly, planning is focused on undermining the incoming president with enough violence to rock his administration. Prominent post-election scenarios forecast such widespread rioting that the newly elected president would be compelled to invoke the Insurrection Act. With some senior military officials refusing to follow Trump’s orders, according to the scenarios, the U.S. Armed Forces would split, leaving America on the edge of the abyss. 

By vilifying Trump as a despotic madman who must be stopped before he can commence his reign of terror, the regime’s propaganda apparatus not only slanders Trump but also pre-emptively threatens the reputation, as well as the livelihood and perhaps the liberty, of current military personnel. The point is to push the military against Trump: When the time comes to act, will you stand for democracy or side with a tyrant who sees the military only as an instrument to advance his personal interests? 

For instance, last week the Atlantic’s editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, quoted former Trump administration officials claiming that the Republican candidate is contemptuous of America’s armed forces and, according to Trump’s former chief of staff, John Kelly, wishes he could command the same respect that Hitler commanded from his general officers. 

This is not the first time that Trump has been compared to Hitler or that Kelly, a retired Marine general, turned on his former commander-in-chief. Kelly was the key source for a story published before the 2020 election, also in the Atlantic and also by Jeffrey Goldberg, that alleged Trump had called American WWII soldiers buried in French cemeteries “suckers and losers.” 

The veracity of Kelly’s latest revelation that Trump admires Hitler must of course be judged against the fact that he waited five years to disclose it, even if it is unlikely to have much effect on the current election cycle. The military, and veterans of the Global War on Terror in particular, overwhelmingly support the candidate opposed to waging endless and strategically pointless foreign wars. Moreover, Trump has weathered far more damaging fabrications — like the false allegations that he had been compromised by Russian intelligence — that only galvanized support for him.

The purpose of the Hitler narrative is not to alter the electoral preferences of left-wing media audiences already solidly in the anti-Trump column, but rather to justify taking extreme measures against the Republican candidate and the America First movement and ensure that the bulk of the military sides with the anti-Trump plot. Thus, it is best understood in the context of recent accounts promising, or urging, violence after the November vote. 

For example, last week the New York Times published a long interview with a scholar of fascism who declared that Trump is a fascist. The paper of record followed up with another long article by two Harvard professors calling for mass mobilization in the event of a Trump victory. The proposal suggests that private industry join civil society organizations to ostracize Trump and his supporters and engage in large public protests to provoke a crisis. Kamala Harris herself, commenting on Kelly’s allegations in the Atlantic story, claimed that her opponent “is a fascist” during a CNN town hall.

These stories are only the latest in an ongoing series of media reports warning of a Trump dictatorship. Beltway insider Robert Kagan was out of the gate early, writing even before Trump wrapped up the nomination that, without mounting resistance against the Republican candidate, America is “a few short steps, and a matter of months, away from the possibility of dictatorship.” A January story from NBC claimed that Trump was exploring ways to use the military to assassinate political rivals. 

The propaganda meant to establish a predicate to employ violence to stop Trump has been reinforced at the highest levels of the Democratic Party.   

When Joe Biden was asked by a reporter if he was confident that there would be a peaceful transfer of power after the 2024 election, he answered, “If Trump wins, no I’m not confident at all.” Then, seemingly correcting himself, the president said, “I mean if Trump loses, I’m not confident at all. He means what he says, we don’t take him seriously. He means it, all the stuff about, ‘If we lose there will be a bloodbath.’”

Biden was referring to a comment Trump made in March about Chinese efforts to build auto manufacturing plants in Mexico. The export of those cars to America, Trump said, would result in a “bloodbath” for the U.S. auto industry. Naturally, the Biden campaign used the figure of speech to accuse Trump of inciting “political violence.”

There's a lot to be said for Electric cars. They're heavy, somehow unreliable, massive hunks of steel and toxic chemicals by design AND necessity, sometimes very fast, serve as status symbols for the insufferable, and are known for intermittently ramming into people and other cars. When you really look at it, the electric car is as distinctly American as Apple Pie, the Chevy Small Block, and smiling at strangers on the street.

Yet many commentators overlook the most American aspect of electric vehicles: Tax Evasion.

See, despite the hefty annual registration you pay to put a sticker on your license plate each year, the real road tax for most automobiles is exacted on each gallon of fuel burnt. It's only fair, as heavier cars tend to use more fuel, meaning the vehicles that are harder on the roads and the people that use them the most will on average pay more to repair them.

You can see now how EVs throw a wrench in that equation. Not only do they weigh as much as half a dozen Honda Citys (INCLUDING the Motocompo foldable scooter), but they don't use a lick of pump gas while auto-piloting backwards off the nearest overpass.

The Federal Government is doing its darndest to make sure EVs make up the bulk of daily commuters within the next [TIMEFRAME GOALPOST MOVED TO TEN YEARS PAST CLIMATE APOCALYPSE], and local municipalities are facing the prospect of repairing roads on reduced budgets while these ion-fueled freeloaders erode the asphalt further with their multi-tonne zero-emission smugness machines.

Previously I was the one with a near-local monopoly on evading fuel tax, thanks to my advanced E85 brewing setup made from a lapsed whiskey still I found in the woods and my personal recycling enterprise (stealing used cooking oil from fast food greasetraps, fighting the raccoons for access to the greasetraps, training the local possums in counter-raccoon tactics, fighting rogue possum factions for access to the greasetraps, enabling a cycle of inter-mammalian violence so that I can fill the tank on my $200 300D wagon).

Now the municipalities are talking about "reporting mileage" and "Paying $400 yearly for infrastructure upkeep." This is what EV owners would define as an "Externality," another very American ideal.

In the long run this will probably help me. Most of my odometers are broken, and even if they aren't, the average mileage on one of my cars is 15 miles, 17 if you count the time I had to roll it backwards down a hill and push it into my garage. It's just the principle of the thing, I say, fending off another well-armed possum militia dead-set on acquiring my remaining catalytic converters.

Raising Prices

So I've fallen upon a claim that states: "Customers purchasing more of a product, means that product can sell for a cheaper price". This has to do with bulk purchasing, and easier money flow within the business entity.

This is one of the reasons behind "Trickle Down economics." It enables them to sell more for less. Though, whether or not they opt to take advantage of that is shady business.

What this means is that high demand forces supply chains to provide more supply, which increases demand on productivity and material acquisition.

Those end points of productivity and material acquisition are some of the worrisome key points we as employees think about, because it often results in an attack on wages first, instead of, utilizing technological advancement and ethical material prospecting.

This may tie in with another concept that says "as the supply of a product dries up, the cost of the remaining supply goes up in price." This happens for multiple reasons, at the end of the day it's to increase the operating budget for as long as possible.

Which is supposed to come with increases on expansion of productivity and material acquisition... Supposedly. Business people could probably tell you that's not always how it works.

What happens, is that sometimes entities decide to increase price in order to increase profit. Despite material and production costs remaining the same. They do this in an effort to expand and grow the business.

What ends up happening many times [citation needed] is that the increase in price, drives less people to purchase them. And they expect that the current customers will continue to purchase the product without going to a cheaper competitor.

Their reasoning is that they are selling the "normal" or "luxury" product, and their competitors are "inferior" products. Per the economic definition, though I'd wager some don't actually *mean* the economic definition.

In some cases this works out. Especially if a product can be resold for at least half of its purchase value at a later date. Retention of value is part of the reason to buy goods after all.

And there's thrift stores and goodwills all over that can make profit on used goods. But that's where it gets tricky; in this day and age, used goods are what we consider "inferior goods". And new goods are our "Normal Goods".

There is no "Luxury" brand, because our current definition of "Luxury" includes things out of reach for a normal person. Like a Yacht, or a house, or a Luxury Vehicle.

Which isn't quite true, because vehicles either drop in price like any other used good, or they are verblan goods. Which only retain their value *because* of the initial sale price, and manufacturing name.

No your Tesla truck will not be a collectors item until 20 years from now. There's really people on the waiting list expecting to resell their Tesla truck at 10x the purchase cost.

I bet a handful of people might even spend that much.

Which is actually a problem for Tesla, because they need feedback on the operation of the Truck in order to improve the quality in the future, but if people don't use them, they can't get that feedback.

And as we've already discussed, Used goods are Inferior, and so using a thing that you buy makes it worthless. So people buying goods as an investment won't use them, because that'd make them worth less.

It reminds of people collecting comic books, that don't realize the only reason golden age comics are so valuable, is because most of them were destroyed due to the war effort requiring the production of paper and cardboard.

Where the f* was I? because I went on such a tangent.

So they raise the prices thinking they're *luxury goods* which might initially look good on paper; less purchases, same profit. But what often happens is it kickstarts a cycle where less and less purchases happen. If you're calling yourself a "luxury product" eventually, people are going to start treating you like one, as they purchase alternatives instead.

Because of that key factor that consumers will purchase less of a luxury product, because of the budget requiring other luxury products.

Like Homes, and vehicles. Necessary Luxuries as opposed to Inferior Luxuries.
