And here’s the real truth, dudes usually say “I do”and mean “I do”. Women say “I do” and most of the time they mean “I’ll try”. That’s the risk. Statistically, women are the ones who leave, they file most divorces. So a man can give his best, pay every bill, stay faithful, and still get left the minute she decides she’s tired of trying.

I’ve seen too many guys living like that, working hard, loyal, minding their business, but sneaking a video game in like it’s illegal. Bro, that’s not peace, that’s prison with a headboard. I don’t know how you did it.
I won’t either. They want a traditional man but don’t want to be a traditional woman. I don’t know how I did it either. Twice. Haha

House hunting sucks. I remember now why I've stayed in the same house for 24 years.

Bro, you and I are “here”. Matter of fact, I saw a chick at the grocery store earlier today with a shirt on that said “Women don’t owe you shit” LOL! She had massive amounts of negative energy written all over her face. I said to myself, well damn! Lol. What’s that all about?

Is your post really about what I think it is?

WIFKSRN: Okay, so please excuse my language but I am very angry at this whole obvious Trump Epstein headline crap.

It’s honestly laughable at this point. There are dozens of pictures of Trump and Epstein together, not “oops-we-met-once” photos, but smiling, comfortable, “we-do-this-all-the-time” photos. And now Elon Musk says Trump is on the client list? Yeah, the one for men who paid to get an underage girl to fuck. Not allegedly. That’s what Epstein sold. That’s what they bought.

Trump’s own Justice Department arrests Epstein, and then, shock of all shocks, Epstein “kills himself” in a federal facility with every safeguard mysteriously failing at once. No trial. No names. Just a conveniently dead man and a sealed file.

And then Trump turns around and blames Biden for “withholding the list”, promising he’d release it if reelected. But now? Silence. Of course. Because he was never going to out his own kind.

Biden’s not releasing it either, let’s be honest. Why? Because too many of the names on that list wear tailored suits, fund political dinners, and have buildings named after them. They don’t get exposed, they get legacy foundations and speaking gigs.

Oh, and Melinda Gates left Bill over Epstein. Clinton’s name is also burned into those flight logs. And Trump? His whole public persona is walking, talking entitlement with a history of bragging about violating women. You think this is new?

And the kicker? Nothing’s going to happen. Not to him. Not to Clinton. Not to any of them. Because the patriarchy doesn’t eat its own. It protects them, wraps them in PR teams, donor networks, and country club silence.

And you know what? This isn’t a justice system. It’s a country club with legal immunity. And every time you act surprised, you’re just proving you were never invited to the real room.

And to the Trump supporter who’s like all of a sudden acting all brand new like, “Oh.. I’ve got integrity. I almost want to puke. I can’t believe Trump would so this. I literally want to throw up.” And then faking like he wants to throw up. You know what? You never had integrity because you voted for him! I hope you do throw up, choke on your own vomit and die, you Trump supporting piece of shit.

End of rant.

Oh, it’s exactly like that, Phrozen. And let me be crystal clear, I meant every word I said. There’s no walking it back when the truth is standing on a pile of bodies.

These people plotted to kidnap the governor of Michigan. They murdered two elected officials right here in Minnesota. They beat Paul Pelosi with a hammer in his own home. They stormed the U.S. Capitol, smeared feces on the walls, beat police officers, and then call themselves “law and order”, and “back the blue”, brought zip ties and gallows, and openly called for hanging the Vice President, and then had the audacity to call themselves patriots. You have got to be kidding me.

And yet… they’re still here. Still bold. Still loud. Still walking free.

Meanwhile, the peaceful ones, the voices of actual integrity are the ones who get assassinated. The truth tellers. The peacemakers. The ones who actually tried to make this country better. They’re the ones who end up dead.

But the liars? The cowards? The predators and propagandists? They thrive. They fundraise. They get book deals and TV time. Oh, and did I mention they win elections?

So yeah, this is what you get from me now. I’m done softening it. If my mouth gets nasty when I talk about evil, it’s because evil never whispers, it shouts. It marches. It kills. And I’m not going to sit quietly while it smiles in a suit.

And this isn’t about politics. This is about a country where morality is disposable and violence gets rewarded, as long as it wraps itself in the right slogan.

And if you need proof of everything I just said?

We elected an asshole who should be in prison. But he’s not. He campaigned and won.

That’s the system. That’s the sickness. You can traffic girls, incite violence, try to overthrow the government, and still get a motorcade and a fanbase. Because in this country, evil isn’t just tolerated. It’s elevated.

So no, I’m not “too angry.” I’m exactly as angry as the moment demands.

End of story.
And I’m not sorry.

Yep, and I’ll bet everyone knew, and nothing happened to him. That’s the part that never stops boiling my blood. Makes me so mad. These men didn’t hide it. They didn’t fear consequences. They operated openly because the system was never designed to stop them, it was built to protect them.

Right. Nothing happened even though it was so well known that the student senate frequently discussed it and how we could stop it, but we were helpless.

Then he got elected as governor.

Yes, I'm getting my house ready to sell, which sucks and we've been looking at houses everywhere between Portage (south of Kalamazoo) to Grand Rapids. I'm already tired of it. LOL

But tomorrow we leave for Mackinac Island, where he was supposed to propose on our sunset Sip N Sail cruise.

Congrats in advance! It’s certainly a different world than when I bought my first house in 2007.

Yep. That’s pretty much how it works. Unfortunately.

So, you’re both selling your houses and buying one together, right?

Have fun, Dee. I’m so happy for you.

Just got the word my R35 will be ready for pickup today at noon. Haven’t driven it yet, but everything I wanted done is finally in place.

I kept the outside completely stock, but under the hood it’s exactly what I had in mind. Full E85 flex-fuel setup, ID1300X injectors, DW400 pump, high-flow catted downpipes, resonated midpipe, upgraded stock location intercooler, all chosen to stay street legal but still push real power.

I asked for a clean crackle map in sport mode, and the tuner delivered. He said it pops just right, nothing over the top. On the dyno, he said it even threw a couple small flames at redline, which is exactly the kind of subtle drama I was hoping for.

It’s now making around 800 crank hp, about 680 to the wheels. No CELs, still has cats, and supposedly drives smooth when you’re off it. I’ll find out at noon, just in time for Cars & Coffee this weekend. Can’t wait to feel it for myself.

People keep bringing up how Democrats will change their tune if the list comes out and people in our party’s names are on it.

Okay, we sat around listening to Dirty Dress Talk by Ken Starr on the evening news during dinner. Exactly no one who lived through the 90s will be shocked if Clinton’s name is on there.

Expose them all, idc the party or ideology or anything else. Megan’s Law Status for Everybody!!!!
